It’s a shame to lose the create Earth bonus but you’d be better off with a different ability. But as a ranged Cragheart, creating obstacles isn’t an important focus for you.

Level 1 is where you get to look through a lot of cards at the same time and really get a feel for the Cragheart as a character. So let’s make those cards count! Level 1 Cragheart cards With a hand limit of 11 cards, you’ll only be using just over a third of the cards at any one time.
