Ultimately, the issue with Gallia is that, most of the time, she's a 2/2 haste. Which is a surprisingly good floor, mind you. But my experience with Robber of the Rich has really soured me on potential advantages on haste bears.
But Gallia needs incidental value even less than Gary I think. Her floor as a Rip-Clan Crasher is already decent and her discard/draw ability just gravy. Probably even without specific things to discard. I also can't be very picky, cheap and aggressive discard outlets are rare. I kinda have to take every good Wild Mongrel variant they give us.
Would you assume there is a satyr tribal draftable when you saw her within the first few picks?

Do you mean, that you don't ecpect her draw ability to be relevant?
Exactly. While it will happen sometimes, I don't think it will happen very often. Three creatures is a lot, spercially if you want to lean higher on the mana curve as GR usually does. And if she might trigger, your opponent might just shoot her with a Firebolt before she can provide card advantage.Do you mean, that you don't ecpect her draw ability to be relevant?
It's fairly trivial to kill a 2/2 in combat. A 2/2 with an attack trigger often has a hard time to trigger more than once. In the case of Gallia, it's all upside though. Pump, burn spells, and Frenzied Goblin-effects can do a lot of work on cards like this though. Plan your support spells around it, and it can do some work, I think

I mean, the card is fine. But it's fine because it's a 2/2 Haste, not because her ability will fire.
I'll just chime in to say that I really dislike when cards imply tribal strategies that aren't supported in cube
I don't run Gravecrawler for that reason
I added her recently and I've played a couple of sample games but haven't gotten to do a real draft with her in the cube.Has anyone ever tried this card? Looks like a nice spells payoff, but without much need of commitment.
How good would this card be in a lower powered cube with just ten fetches (but nothing other than basics to fetch with)?
Degenerate or fun?

It's me again with a gruul madness related question
Has anyone ever tried this guy? Is he any good in an aggro deck?
