Default [ARB] Necromancer's Covenant, Glassdust Hulk & Behemoth Sledge







The Covenant is nice, but not for constructed. It could be awfully funny though. Slaughter's dredge, and in this block alone, drastically warps Lord of Extinction.

The hulk is slightly unimpressive, however a 4/5 unblockable is kinda cute. The one cost cycle is where this guy is at though.

Sledge is a lot better then I orginally gave I credit for. It's a new Armadillo Cloak! Just ya know, the equip three is kina painful, but definately playable.

That's pretty crazy. But it's also expensive, and although zombie decks should be playing Stillmoon Cavalier, four-color zombies seems awkward given that the unplayed fifth color is green. Most likely just useful in casual.

Edit: Maybe B/W tokens might want to try it?

Nobody's ever heard of flamesrising.com so no wonder we didn't know this existed.

Meh?

Potentially gamebreaking in Limited, but otherwise kind of unimpressive.

Oh, why does this have to white? It would be a shoe in for my Thraximundar EDH deck.

Poor guys.
lol. As for the card itself, it's going straight into my GCO EDH Deck. Remove my opponent's recursion targets and provide myself lifelinking ghost bait? I'll take it.

It looks like Doran decks just got their own Loxodon Warhammer. I like it.
