    For the sake of debate, are there any actual red 3-drop creatures people are omitting due to being too powerful? Blue 3 drop creatures omitted: True-Name Red 3-drop spells omitted Sulfuric Vortex Wheel of Fortune (not sure how much wheel counts) My guess is that most RL 3-drop red sections...

    Other point: if Acolyte is blocked, the damage triggers before combat damage is assigned and you can finish the blocker off with burn damage, making the opponent hesitant to block even with say, a Baneslayer. This introduces some bluffing / reading, which isn't all that prominent in a typical...

    Eh, kind of interesting to see people not let a point go in here. To argue against FSR, not blocking acolyte will make it a) grow and consequently b) harder to block in the future. FSR's argument is that of a punisher mechanic: if you give your opponent the choice, they get to choose the one...

    On a scale of 0 - boring how much fun was this card?

    I would be interested in seeing actual boardstates and comparing how each creature affects the flow of the game.

    Get them into the red zone once, then they're too big to be unblockable?

    I think now that a WOTC sanctioned scry variant exists, it's going to be harder to push marginally better alternatives to your player group.

    Card/Deck Ug... What should I do with my Blue-Green section?

    I run Coatl + Courser + Shardless + bucket of Brainstorms in my cube, I like UG as weird spell + creature interactions. Running 5, 6, and 7 drops in the UG section kind of says "you only get rewarded if you go ramp in this combination", which is fine. I mean, my RB section probably says "you...

    Card/Deck Ug... What should I do with my Blue-Green section?

    What if, instead of focusing on cards specifically, we focus on what we want decks containing U and G to do in the abstract?

    I think I ran this in E-Domain and it was fine, it's not really a "game winner" by any means, but can be an acceptable value card. I can't recall, did it see any play during Zendikar Standard?
