Default [GP] Daggerclaw Imp and Vedalken Plotter

Here we go, some new cards:

Daggerclaw Imp
2B
Creature - Imp (U)
Flying
Daggerclaw Imp can´t block.
3/1

Vedalken Plotter
2U
Creature - Vedalken Wizard (U)
When Vedalken Plotter comes into play, exchange control of target land you control and target land an opponent controls.
1/1

The source is quite reliable, imo (Caranthir's source).

Oh, they arent too good ^^'. The Plotter could be funny to play, like giving one of those lands that self-destruct after using some counters or such and getting a nice dual xD (or forbidden orchard? counters backup could help)... but even then its not great >.<

The black flier should be a bat XP

Wow, both are very nice monocolored cards.

The imp is a great stick. 3 power for a 3 CC is excellent and flying makes it that much better. The blocking clause is nothing, as you'll always be attacking with this guy. I love it.

The Plotter is a good source of mana disruption, and on a stick to boot! I can see this guy getting bounced many, many times.

They're both decent picks in limited draft. I wouldn't be too upset if I had to choose one of these.

They're raher useless in anything but limited, but oh well...

Not too impressive, but tot terrible either. They're playable enough...

wouldn't bouncing the land you were giving away cause the ability to be countered? Or would it still resolve because it still has one target? If so, this guy + any of the soratami is nasty.

EDIT: Fetch lands too.

I like the Imp...but the Wizard is kinda janky.
The only use I could see for him would be stealing dual-lands in limited.

We won't see those cards in constructed I think...

Still the Imp is nice! Black doesn't get a 3-power flying creature for 2b very often.

If its not done when i get home (FIVE hours.. ) ill do it.. lol


EDIT: guess so.. solves that then

You must not play limited that often. Three power in a flier for 3cc is reeeally good. I'm going to love it.

3rd turn exchange for a Karoo, that you're opponent never got to use seems like a good deal, especially if you give them a land they can't use for colored mana.

Exchange for a Sunhome, or a Vhitu-Ghazi, or a Svogthos, or a Duskmantle, even, can really hurt your opponents strategy. Also cool with cards like Peel from Reality.

It's a card Dimir decks will like to play, if there's enough support from them to be playable in RRG draft.
