Thanks!

Neither one is that great but keep em coming!

jcsuperstar · 06-27-2008, 08:14 AM

Thanks, Green!

Can't say much for the cards, except to note that in Shadowmoor, the multiple-hybrid activation cost abilities were all P/T pump. It looks like were going to get a different mix of activated abilities in EVE.

Thanks LtGreen! (M-Team or Spectrum?)

1 drop lifelinker is pretty nice, actually. Especially if you can pump it.

The Ghoul will see play in limited, because it deals with retrace and persist.

Credendo · 06-27-2008, 08:17 AM

Thanks Green for confirming the Gwyllion's as hags, I feel vindicated

A 1cc lifelinker makes a nice limited card, but it's not gonna be Mistmeadow witch by far. Oh well

Machius · 06-27-2008, 08:19 AM

Not green but still any new cards are good.

Creakwood Ghoul- at

for a 3/3 plant zombie it's limited to limited however in limited it's a pretty nice card hosing persist effects and reusable life gain is worth playing and 3/3's are above the average p/t for limited.

Nip Gwyllion- another hag, a 1/1 lifelinker for 1 mana in black or white, in limited if I have the bw lord or the bw aura(if it's any good) i'd play this, or if I had a (b or w)/x deck with a weenie curve that wants 1 drops i'd also run it. However in other cases it would be a 23rd card and never picked in the first 7 cards of any pack in draft.

So I was right: Hag = French Vanilla creature....meh :/

And there seems to be a cycle of monocolor cards wth HH activated abilities. This one is more useful than the spriggan I reckon.

thanks and keep 'em coming!

pandafarmer · 06-27-2008, 08:23 AM

The Hag will be nice if the B/W Liege has a good cheap casting cost!

Well, the Ghoul has a green activated ability! It's always nice to see more Plant Zombies, and it will definitely be played in Limited.

Similar to foxfire oak and co in Shadowmoor

Nice fillers there Green! Thanks!

Would you happen to have the collector's number of the Hag too?

The Hag might be useful, but I'll take Mistmeadow Skulk over this any day.

Wrong. In a block where color matters limited cares alot more about shifting and changing the color of things than gaining one life or removing a card from the graveyard. But that being said it does have its uses against creatures with persist. Whats that? Your kitchen finks died and went to the graveyard? Well I better remove it from the game before it comes back!

Onderzeeboot · 06-27-2008, 08:38 AM

YEAH! Return of the Zombie Plants! You thought you saw the last of them in Ravnica, but low and behold, they're back with a vengeance!!!

The hag is inferior to Mourning Thrull in so many ways it hurts my head, still, thanks for the extra card

Ember_Twilight · 06-27-2008, 08:38 AM

You know, for a block that wasn't a graveyard block, we're seeing an aweful lot of cards that interact with the GY.

RickCorgan · 06-27-2008, 08:58 AM

All the graveyard hate is meant to hose persist and retrace. For that reason alone, I think the Ghoul is very playable in Limited.

The hag, well... its playability will depend on just how good the W/B common
aura will be. And even so, you'll probably end up with better hybrids in your deck anyway.
