Tail Slash and Fall of the Hammer were both pretty high picks, and green having generally beefier creatures than red means this is probably pretty good in limited.

sarmhan posted:I think you're just wrong. Green is the best color for this effect, and this is the cheapest version of it we've had. The only competitor is Savage Punch/Epic Confrontation, which were both fantastic. That was my point earlier though. Those cards were so good because they pumped your guy as well.

what's the current recommended card album/binder type thing? I need to get into trading instead of hoarding and I need something that fits in a laptop bag I can take with me. I don't have too many actually valuable tradeworthy cards so I don't need like a big 256 page 3-ring binder type thing, but I don't wanna get some piece of poo poo at target that's going to fall apart either.

Prey Upon was always pretty good in the limited formats it was in, right? And one-way damage for an extra mana is a pretty good trade. Unnatural Aggression was mostly bad because 3 mana is just a bit much for no p/t boost and green's creatures just weren't especially big in BFZ, not reliably bigger than other colors' creatures anyway.

Rounding out the Welcome Deck spoilers: cobblebrute again Another vanilla creature. This one is at least tribally relevant. A potential madness enabler? It also helps you cast more spells for that draft U/R prowess deck. EDIT: I lied 1 mana over kill shot in exchange for gaining 3 life, seems reasonable in a controlling deck. Here's the glorious charge variant for those token decks. Sarmhan fucked around with this message at 22:06 on Mar 24, 2016 |

sarmhan posted:Prey upon was very good in Innistrad yes. This is probably even better. Fall of the Hammer and Tail slash were first-pick quality in their formats, and again this is in the better color that otherwise gets no removal. This is easily the best green common so far, and likely the best period. I don't think we've seen any common removal spells so far that are this good, except maybe fiery temper. This will be a high pick in draft.

Angry Grimace posted:It's 2 mana tail slash how do you figure that's not great in limited. Tail Slash was an instant for one. That was a big part of what made it good. I just think this is a 4th or 5th pick and not a 1st.

Quite a few of the werewolves seem to have high power too, which helps the card.

Pacifist on the play in limited is gonna be real good if your opponent doesn't have a two-drop in their grip.

Glade Watcher was pretty decent, the pacifist probably has an easier time attacking and can get bigger.

That is bizarre they didn't just reuse that especially since the names basically suggest the same thing.

I guess the Barony in the name is too much of a flavour tie to Baron Sengir or something.

There's been weirder ones. Like how they absolutely couldn't use Searing Spear for Theros for some reason, it had to be Lightning Strike, after they just made an FNM promo of Searing Spear.
