Sentinels of the Multiverse is a great game which understands how to make co-op fun. However where SotM understands how card games work and makes decisions from there, The Cauldron understands how SotM works and adds to and improves the base formula. This set is worth a buy if you love Sentinels. Now let's talk about why Lady of the Wood is a great hero
Lady of the Wood is a DPS hero, so she'll be dishing out a lot of damage. What makes her unique is that her seasons cards cards reward using certain kinds of damage. For example Spring will heal the Lady for the amount she hits an enemy with, and Winter will let her draw cards every time she hits an enemy with cold damage. Set her up right and she'll be a goddess of damage dealing
Pro Tip: she works well with the Stranger and Doc Havoc. Havoc has a card that makes a hero's damage irreducable, but they deal themselves toxic damage in exchange. But with Spring out she can have armor piercing damage with no cost. Likewise the Stranger has a counter rune so if the runeholder is hit, they inflict Toxic damage to a target. On the Lady with Spring out, she can deal damage and heal herself outside of her turn
Of all the base set Cauldron heroes, the Lady is my favorite. She's a glass cannon with enough survivablility to not make you worry you'll die every round. New players will enjoy her sheer power and more experienced players can enjoy finding the various ways she combos with others. All and all, she's a fabulous character
