I'm a sucker for RG walkers though. I miss my one drop mana dorks.

On one hand, heck yes this is rad. On the other hand, the RG werewolf planeswalker makes me worry about the possibility of the RG werewolf legendary creature. I guess it could be in Moon but...

Lots of play to this card. Come into play, make a 2/2 and then start bolting stuff next turn? Seems good.

Arlinn looks extremely fun, though maybe not impactful enough to be played.

BizarroAzrael posted:To the Slaughter looks amazing, but I feel like it should be uncommon, but whatever. Looks like it might be a sideboard card. It interacts with Planeswalkers so it's automatically a Rare. Otherwise a 3-mana edict would probably be an Uncommon. Can't have kids opening an Uncommon and going "Wow. What's a Planeswalker?" with the potential to have one in the same pack.

She's good. Not broken or splash-worthy, especially if the mana is as mediocre as everyone expects, but she'll see play and be a good card in any GR deck.

So how exactly does Odric work? If you have him out all your creatures have First Strike (Easy enough) If you have him and a Flyer the flyer has FS and DTouch? If you have him, the flyer and a creature already with FS and DTouch that creature gets Double Strike?

She transforms when she bolts something so you go back and forth between make a 2/2 and bolting until she dies. It's incredibly slow. She's really bad at being removal and isn't meant to control the board.

Especially since the literal quote from state of design 2012 was quote:Commander has become a very popular format and not giving it a Werewolf commander was a big letdown for a lot of players.

She is very sorin like where her plus supports creatures and her minus produces/kills creatures. Its a really flexible card. I could see where there is a concern that there is no immediate, sweeping effect when you play her off the top of the deck later, but there is a chance she is a solid walker in a r/g stompy/aggressive/midrange/whatever. She looks to be hands down better than nahiri at least, at least without playing with the cards.

The legendary werewolf could be mono-green with a red activated ability. That'd still work as an R/G werewolf commander because of ~*~COLOR IDENTITY~*~

^^^^ Or your idea. I like your idea. e2: Or one face could be one color and the other face could be another color, which IIRC would also work under the assbackwards interpretation held by Sheldon and the rules council dragon enthusiast posted:They can't because there's only one multicolor card on the checklist (for SOI) I mean they could still have a mono-color legendary werewolf but that would be really dumb because they'd use up their imaginary legendary werewolf equity on something that could only rep one of the tribe's colors in Commander

She's not as good a creature supporter as Sorin is but she isn't bad (though she's dependent on how the big green creature deck is...) and she's better than him on an empty board.

Those are a lot of cool effects but having to jump through hoops to get the one you want probably means that she's going to be a turn too slow no matter what.

Barry Shitpeas posted:They can still have a legendary werewolf at rare I suppose it could also be G or R on one side and the other on the other, since that affects color identity. Archangel Avacyn is an RW commander this way. Thing is, checklist 2 in Tabak's mechanics article has only one gold card. It's Arlinn.

Wanna build a naya walkers deck with Chandra, nahiri, Gideon and Arlin.

If you can get Arlinn into Chandra, I think her Wolf side's +1 is extremely good in combination with Chandra's +1. I almost wonder if Nissa into Arlinn into Chandra could be a thing since Arlinn's + side seems like it would end the game rapidly and Nissa brings a ton of defense to the table there.

I want to play Arlinn, but there's definitely some awkward bits to her. In an R/G aggressive deck (which I kind of assume is her natural home, mmmaybe she slots into something more midrange?) you want to drop here, pop out a wolf, and then start pumping your team on the way to her ult (which is fairly attainable, I think, even though you do have to take the turn to transform her so it's not as fast as it looks), except that unlike the front side's vigilance, that's stripping away a lot of her defense. I think she's going to be trickier to play with than she looks. Basically I think that despite being a strong ability, the bolt kind of throws off what you really want to be doing with her.
