Analysis
Silverscale Swordsman adds a much needed 3rd activator for Martial Skills for this archetype, allowing it to be far more consistent than previously. Unlike the 2 other activators, Goldenscale Swordsman and Chimerala, the Dragonblood Princess, Silverscale Swordsman is able to ignore the costs on the Martial Skill it plays. Since its the only activator like this at the moment, you wouldn't be able to build around this and the ruler of choice is likely to still be 15.
