Attack: 2 Defense: 4

Storm.
[fanfare] If there’s a follower with at least 7 defense on your field, deal 4 damage to each enemy follower on the field.
At the start of your end phase, if this follower has at least 3 attack, refresh it.

Tanzanite Convictor is a follower with Faith from Havencraft. This follower has multiple abilities. She is a generic card. You can play her in a variety of decks for Havencraft. She provides support for followers with a defense of seven or greater.

Sets:

First Ability: Storm

Tanzanite Convictor has storm when she enters the field. She can immediately attack an opponent’s follower or leader. She can inflict two damage to the opponent’s leader.

Furthermore, Havencraft has cards with abilities to increase Tanzanite Convictor’s attack. This follower can potentially inflict of damage to a leader in the mid to late stages of a game. She becomes a major problem for the opponent.

For instance, Sky Sprite adds two attack and two defense to a follower placed during this turn. You may give the additional offense to Tanzanite Convictor. Therefore, Tanzanite Convictor’s attack becomes four with the ability of Sky Sprite.

Second Ability: Fanfare

Tanzanite Convictor inflicts four damage to all of your opponent’s followers if you have a follower with at least seven defense on the field. This fanfare provides an option to clear the opponent’s field. It weakens an opposing follower with a high defense above four.

Therefore, Tanzanite Convictor has the potential to clear the opponent’s field of its followers. Tanzanite Convictor can destroy many followers with four or less defense on the opponent’s field. The opponent could be defenseless.

Furthermore, Tanzanite Convictor counters decks with tokens with low defense. This follower is an effective card against vampires. Bats only have one defense. Followers such as Alucard, Midnight Vampire, and Raven Midnight Vampire only have four or less defense. Therefore, Tanzanite Convictor destroys these followers with this ability when she inflicts four points of damage.

In addition, Tanzanite Convictor needs a deck with followers with a defense of seven or greater. Followers such as Diamond Master (Evolved) and Lapis, Glorious Seraph have seven defense. These cards require a lot of play points to play on the field. You may only activate the second ability during the late game.

Third Ability:

Tanzanite Convictor refreshes herself in a reversed state if she has three attack at the end of the turn. This ability requires you to increase her attack. It provides protection during the opponent’s turn.

Therefore, this ability protects Tanzanite Convictor. The opponent cannot attack her during his or her turn with most followers. She is in a state of reserve.

Furthermore, Tanzanite Convictor requires support because her attack is naturally two points. For instance, Bejeweled Shrine adds one attack and one defense to Tanzanite Convictor. She now meets the condition for her third ability.

However, this ability does not protect Tanzanite Convictor from all opposing followers. A follower with Assail can attack a reserved follower. This type of follower may destroy her in battle. 

Support:

Tanzanite Convictor is a generic card for Havencraft. She requires a deck with multiple followers with seven or greater defense. She requires these cards for her abilities.

Diamond Master (Evolved) is stellar support for Tanzanite Convictor. These followers complement each other. Diamond Master (Evolved) may place Tanzanite Convictor from the graveyard to the field. Then, Tanzanite Convictor with her fanfare inflicts four points of damage to each of the opponent’s followers on the field.

Furthermore, Havencraft has cards with effects to increase Tanzanite Convictor’s attack. Amethyst Lion and Bejeweled Shrine may increase this follower’s attack to three. Then, she will meet the conditions for her third ability.

Play these cards with Tanzanite Convictor!

• Bejeweled Shrine
• Diamond Master (Evolved)
• Fieran, Havensent Wind God
• Lapis, Glorious Seraph
• Somnolent Strength
• Sky Sprite

Card Rating:

Overall, Tanzanite Convictor has good abilities for the late game. She damages all of the opponent’s followers with the potential to destroy all of them. She consistently refreshes herself when she has three or more attack. However, this follower requires support from multiple cards for her abilities. Therefore, I recommend playing Tanzanite Convictor in a deck with her type of support.

Card Rating: 3.0 out of 5.0 stars3.0
