[M10] Captain of the Watch

Talisker · 06-26-2009, 08:10 AM

Looks like Kithkin/token is getting the ultimate spoiler :

Captain of the Watch
4WW
Creature - Human Soldier (R)
Vigilance
Other Soldier creatures you control gets +1/+1 and have vigilance.
When Captain of the Watch enters the battlefield, put 3 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens onto the battlefield.
3/3

Isn't it Captain of the Watch?

**Johm000** · 06-26-2009, 08:12 AM

wow

That's like Cloudgoat Ranger in steroids.

Bloody hell. 6 mana for a vigilant "9/9"? Wow.

Edit: And it's Captain of the Watch, right?

Edit 2: Sarnathed.

PrideOfTheClouds · 06-26-2009, 08:13 AM

Hollllly crap. This guy is better than Cloudgoat Ranger. 6 mana for 10 power worth of creatures???

2maxwell · 06-26-2009, 08:13 AM

HAHAHA. I knew this would be it! The three dudes bursting out was the give away.

Anyway, expensive card, but very cool. Dont think it'll see much play, but hot dang its awesome. Pay 6 for 9/10 worth of damage on the field? Very nice.

RainbowBrite · 06-26-2009, 08:13 AM

9 power for 6 mana? Sounds good to me!

chaosof99 · 06-26-2009, 08:14 AM

Indeed, it is Captain of the Watch, a.k.a. White Siege-Gang.
However, it is probably "other soldier creatures you control" or else there would be no point on giving him Vigilance.
Definitely better than Mobilization.
Great Lord card and most definitely in the white precon.

Nice, and nice whiskey name as well. (Talisker)
This makes the "at least one card that references Soldiers" as referenced in Beyer's article.

Ulthwithian · 06-26-2009, 08:16 AM

chaosof99: Yes, it is other. I don't know a LOT of French, but 'autres' is 'other'.

Machius · 06-26-2009, 08:18 AM

Very nice, 6cc is pretty high but a 4/4 and 3 2/2's all with vigilance is well worth it. Should see some good play in the short term while we still have Windbrisk Heights and might see some play as a finisher after that.

EDIT: only a 3/3 itself, but still very very solid at 9 power and 4 bodies for 6 mana.

Mobiusman · 06-26-2009, 08:18 AM

Roughly translates as 'Captain of the Watchers', so in English, that would be the Watch.
Definitely is 'other creatures', too. Exciting card!

10 power as it reads...she gets her own bonus.

Autres = other.

And I can't wait to play this alongside Elspeth and Ajani!

Maybe BW Tokens isn't quite dead yet...

So no.
Added to spoiler...WOW at this guy.

Riotsword · 06-26-2009, 08:22 AM

I can't believe I was right! I thought my "White Siege-Gang" idea was a little far-fetched because there's already Knight-Captain of Eos and Cloudgoat Ranger, but, wow.

I think this is what the card says more of less, I'm not a French expert by any means but I think it comes out to:

Quote:

Captain of the Watch

Creature -- Human Soldier Rare
Vigilance
Other Soldier creatures you control get +1/+1 and have vigilance.
When ~ enters the battlefield, put three 1/1 white Soldier tokens onto the battlefield.
3/3

EDIT: I guess I missed the OP saying as much. Must have scrolled straight down to the pic, can you blame me?
