Welcome back, Lorcana fans! In Part 1, we dove into five cards that have been making waves in the meta since the release of Ursula's Return. Now, let's round out our list with five more must-have cards that are shaping the way we play, whether you're a casual enthusiast or a competitive player gunning for the top.

This demigod continues to reign supreme in Ruby decks. Don't let his "Reckless" drawback fool you - Maui's "Rush'' ability makes him an immediate answer to any threat your opponent throws down. With a hefty 6 strength and 5 willpower, he's not only a formidable attacker but also a defensive wall. Him being a 5-cost, inkable card means he fits into various strategies, and he's particularly adept at clearing Locations. Maui is a true hero for Ruby players, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a competitive deck without him.

Amethyst players, look no further than Madam Mim - Fox! Sh e's the cornerstone of the Mim/Merlin bounce package, offering incredible value for a 3-cost character. Her "Rush" ability allows for immediate board presence, and her inkability opens up a world of combo possibilities. Whether you're playing a control deck that focuses on outlasting your opponent or a tempo deck that aims to seize early control, Madam Mim - Fox is a must-have.

This devastating Song is a board wipe in its purest form, banishing every character in play. It's a 7-cost investment, but it can completely turn the tide of a game in your favor. Ruby/Amethyst decks often build their entire strategy around Be Prepared, forcing opponents to play cautiously and hold back resources. It's a true game-changer, and a card that every Lorcana player needs to be aware of.

Never underestimate the power of card draw! Friends on the Other Side is a seemingly simple Amethyst Song that lets you draw two cards for just 3 ink or sung with a 3-cost or more character. Consistent card draw is crucial in Lorcana, and this card ensures you always have options, whether you're digging for that key combo piece or simply trying to stay afloat. If you're playing Amethyst, this card is a must-have in your deck.

Last, but certainly not least, we have Rapunzel from The First Chapter. She is a 4-cost inkable character that's Amber. Rapunzel debuted with really good synergy for Amber/Steel song decks, with the ability to heal a character and draw cards based on the amount of healing you were able to do. This kept fragile characters alive and stronger ones ready to continue dealing with opposing characters through additional challenges. When she's not healing, she's either questing for 2 lore or singing the very popular song And Then Along Came Zeus. With tons of versatility, we can expect to continue seeing Rapunzel in popular decks such as Amber/Steel songs and Amber/Ruby.

The Ever-Evolving Meta

The Lorcana meta is constantly shifting and evolving, and with the upcoming release of Shimmering Skies, we can expect even more exciting changes. New cards will emerge, strategies will adapt, and the game will continue to surprise and delight us.
