Yup. It's unboltable, so it's pretty hard to remove in general, but it's also kinda just power/toughness: Not really blue's wheelhouse. Is this something people are going to take over vendillion clique? (Okay maybe that one's not really fair) Or Man-'o-War?
Also: Obligatory precedent comment...
Random Thoughts:
W1
~ counts as an island as long as it's in play
2/1
something like that without having the creature tap for mana would be a sweet way to make domain not stupid
Monsterous and morph play quite similarly if you don't care about the hidden information part.
Lastly:
UU1...
I feel the same way. I kinda wish I liked vivid lands more, (Man if they ETB untapped) because whenever I had slaughtermaster activated off a birds or city of brass I felt all warm and fuzzy inside.
Maybe red just has more room for a goblin piker?
Virtuosity is one of those words that doesn't look like it should be a word. Like I read CML's post and was like "Does he mean Virtuousness? What the hell does this sentence mean?"
Yes I looked it up shut up you all can stop now
It's been fine for me.
I actually thought great teacher's decree costed 5, but I still think I prefer dictate. Flash is awesome and it working while you're blocking is also awesome. Can't have your opponent on the back foot all the time after all
As for Dragons... I have no idea about a favorite yet. I'm just gonna gush.
Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit
I really want Bolster to be good. Am I alone on that? I love more counters just floating around and being somewhat hard to control, which leads to interesting sequencing decisions and cards...
Ugh Fate reforged is really boring from a design perspective.
My pick:
Alesha, who smiles at death
Honestly she doesn't have much competition. I love me some reveilark, and the thoughts that go swirling around in people's heads happen many times over when looking at this card, and it's a way...
Alright, I'm gona be different. My Pick for Kahns:
Bloodsoaked Champion
I can basically say at this point that my cube should be running this card instead of gravecrawler, and the only reason I'm not making the switch is because I'm an asshole and have 4 of the buy a box gravecrawler.
He...
That actually might be a bit of a problem actually :P
I'm wondering what I'll end up doing. I'm getting a bit weird about the foils in my cube, since it's the most sysaphean (Sp?) task ever, and sometimes the cards are hard to pick out.
Also, it might be an interesting thematic design if all...
Yup, but they die a lot :P
I think I tripled it at one point. Make sure there's lots of random 1 and 2 drops runing around that just happen to have +1/+1 counters on them, so burning their blocker on t3 and swinging is actually good, since mostly 3 mana 3 damage burn spells are a little more...
Man, Luigi was my Jam! for some reason I found his arial moves much easier to use than anyone else.
I was curious how something "Randomly not working as intended" would end up positively, especially in a game like smash, but yeah that makes sense :P
Oh hey chris taylor I know that guy
Also bloodthirst loves creatures getting through as much as stromkirk noble does
RE: Double strike, it can get out of hand quickly, and it shares the problem all synergy based archetypes have: Fencing Ace is a pile of poo just like Ajani's Pridemate, Hero of...
Admittedly there's not much to proliferate that isn't just more +1/+1 counters, but occasionally adding another counter to everflowing chalice is alright
