Bamboo Memory felt really bad, was like -2 hand for 2 face damage, + it's stat line was bad (2/3 can't clear anything, so the rush was worthless). Never wanted to actually play it, let alone ever use it's FF lol.
In contrast, Dragontamer's cycle helps get through your deck to find your win cons.
EG, if you had 2x Tamer's in hand, you'd play one fine and just cycle out the other. If you had 2x BMs in hand, you look at them and sigh.
Riko is clunky, but she works really well when she works. OPs like to ward up a lot inheritly in the mid game, worried for rando Fortes and Oguri, that leaves plenty of opu for Riko to actually slam in with her strike ability, get in some cheeky 2 for 1s while pushing face damage.
Conflag has been working well. I'm not really a fan of that card, didn't run it in previous formats, but it's pulling work so far.

I'm pretty satisfied with where I'm at with the list now, just need to test more against all the classes more before the LCQ.
I'm up in the air about keeping imp drag, and debating with D. Warrior v S.S. Mage.
