Many times has a writer in Wizards said so, because of the plain and simple fact that it's too powerful for what it costs. x/3 creatures shouldn't be able to die at instant speed for one mana without a signifigant drawback. (like PTE giving you a land)

I absolutely guarantee that LB will not be printed in M10, and you can quote me on that.

Strip bare is definitely interesting, maybe not very good, but it can do one of the following:
  • weaken an opponent's creature
  • disenchant a pacifism like effect on your creature (doing which at instant speed and for W seems decently good)
The Shielddare is a mirror image of Daggerdare, but unlike its Lorwyn counterpart, this doesn't seem that good in limited.

Could be good, I could see this used with plumeveil or other flash creatures.

Strip Bare could find use if your opponents has a lot of auras of equips,but only that...kinda situational IMO.
And this kithkin leaves me waiting for an efficient Kithkin Soldier..

It actually looks like Daggerdare, the green kithkin. Thus the dark reprints is complete. The set is almost done. Thanks Imp for everything.

strip bare's not bad. i can see it being used in certain sideboards, especially for all the jittes flying around in extended. it's cheap and splashable. the shielddare isn't that great, but it's a solid card for limted.

lol way to go. you scared him away

actually, we're seeing more of the dark mirror of Lorwyn in the Sheilddare... as for the stripper... it might find a niche.

OdosMaker doesn't speak for all of us

Personally I like both cards, the first is definitely as flavorful as it is useless.
While the second may actually be ok in limited.

You mean Kithkin Daggerdare? That is actually a Kithkin itself.

thanks for more cards imp

strip bare is... well it hoses Jitte <_<

The 'aurashifted' cycle has been really akward. It's a cool throwback... but so many of them seem like topdown clumsy versions of their much better designed cousins.

Shielddare is weak but playable. Arsonist is probably about the same strength of his logger cousins. However, hallowsage and harpoonist are just... clumsy.
A 2/2 flier for 4 that flies over fliers... and fallowsage has a harder to use, weaker ability than his decent alternate. They clearly started with the Lorwyn cards when designing these

The enchantment/equip removal is handy, esp for one. Very SB-able.

Thanks for everything Imp as always! See you in 3 months!

Shielddare is a strong blocker for slower utility decks. It will probably fill the same role as Steambed Aquitects. The fact that it can target itself makes it stronger than Daggerdare in terms of symmetry.
