Default [ALA] More Cards from the Zesty (Ranger of Eos, Sharuum, etc.)

Greeting Kiddos....

Playtime is on....

First things first.... Lets give MR. Ruel his card since we've all been wondering what it is....... and like always.... in RIDDLE form.

1) Ranger of EOS
Armageddon = CC
Trinket Mage but for 2 Creatures instead = Ability
BOB + Llanowar Elf = P/T

Your welcome!

And now bonus time before bed... more Mythics that we don't have answers for.......

2) Sharuum the Hegemon

Meddling Mage + Cranial Extraction = CC
FLYING = Ability (1)
COP ZOMBIFY an ARTIFACT in your Grave = Ability (2)
Demigod of Revenge + BOP = CC


3) There is a new N DISK ARTIFACT in the set..... which loves other artifacts and lands.... and that's all it likes..... all for the sweet casting cost of a Serra Angel. (It's free to use, but it can only be activated during your upkeep after sacrificing it!!!)


4)Lastly, I know i have been PUNISHing you all with these riddles,...... but I have no IGNORANCE, for your complaints about my riddles....... all i have been able to do...... is ABSORB your requests and some people have chosen to UNDERMINE my messeges .... but in the end.. we'd all be happy if we could just hang out all together just the 4 of us...... (W)ally, (U)ncle Bob, (U)ncle Charlie, and don't forget (B)en.

Lets figure out the 4 puzzles quick guys!!

Riddler

All heil the great Zesty! The king of this rumor season, the beast seaoning on doritos! Hail Zesty! Now to figure out these riddles..

So the last one is the 4WUUB guy... but its a spell?

Punish Ignorance? And what does Absorb Undermine mean?

OH never mind!

Punish Ignorance

WUUB
Counter Target Spell, it's controlelr loses three life. You Gain three life.

Right?

And for guy number one.

Wait wait, trinket mage? Converted mana cost of 1? hmm? If you say so (guess it gets the BoPs out)

So:

Ranger of Eos
3(W)
When Ranger of Eos comes into play search your library for up to two creatures with converted mana cost of 1 or less and put them into your hand).
BOB + 1/1 (what the heck is bob, that dark confidant guy? so 3/3 for the P/T of this dude?)

4) Punish Ignorance
WUUB
Counter target spell, it's controller loses 3 life. You gain 3 life.

Does this mean that this card is mythic? If so WTF...I'm getting sick of spending twenty dollars to get a card that reads counter target spell...

Rare.

EDIT: Nath'd
I'm not sure if this card it good though....I know that the original 2 were chase rares, but with 4 casting cost (same argument as cryptic) and 3 colors (same argument as cryptic, kinda), I don't know if this were be any good (it will probably be freaking amazing)

Ranger of Eos 3w
Creature - Human Ranger

When Ranger of Eos comes into play, search your library for up to two creature cards with converted mana cost 1 or less, reveal those cards, and put them into your hand. If you do, shuffle your library.

3/2

Hey, I like that one!

Sharuum the Hedgemon is a 5/5 flyer for 2ubbw but I don't really get the second ability. Does COP mean Circle of Protection??

edit:

maybe you meant cip? Something like:

Sharuum the Hedgemon
3wbu
Creature - Thingy

Flying
When ~ comes into play, return an artifact from your graveyard to play.

5/5

Esper Disk
3ww
Artifact

~ comes into play tapped.
t, sacrifice ~: Destroy all nonland, nonartifact permanents. Play this ability only during your upkeep.

OOOOHHHHH I LOVE RIDDLES!

1)
Ranger of Eos 3w
When ~ CITP, search your library for up to two creatures with total converted mana cost 2 or less and put them into your hand. Shuffle your library.
3/2

2)
Sharuum the Hedgemon 3wub
Flying
When ~ CITP, return target artifact in a graveyard to play under your control.
5/5

3)
Scourglass 3ww (My NEW guess on the name)
Artifact
~ CITP tapped.
1 ,: Destroy each non-land, non-artifact permanent. Play this ability only at your upkeep.

Would they really allow this to be repeatable? The original Disk couldn't because it nuke artifacts too, but with the cost AND shrad its gotta be repeatable, just like you can reuse an Hourglass, you can reuse a Scourglass


4)
Punish Ignorance wuub
Counter Target spell. Its controller loses 3 life. You gain 3 life.

2) Sharuum the Hegemon

Meddling Mage + Cranial Extraction = CC
FLYING = Ability (1)
COP ZOMBIFY and ARTIFACT in your Grave = Ability (2)
Demigod of Revenge + BOP = CC

So this is what I got.

3WUB
Flying
When Sharuum the Hegemon comes into play return an artifact card from your graveyard to play.
5/5

Edit: Nathed again

But in my own opinion this seems pretty weak for a 3 cost legendary creature, assuming this is the wording and I hope its not another Isperia

I think the "Disk" is this?

New Disk 3WW
Artifact
At the begining of your upkeep, you may sacrifice New Disk. If you do, destroy all non-land, non-artifact permanents.

Seems powerful in an esper deck.

Man Ruel's card turned out to be pretty good. I'm guessing figure of destiny is the eventide card that's supposed to play well with it. What i really like is that you get the ability up front so i can march mr ruel into battle and watch him fight.
