Love the art tricks that these flip cards have... But yeah... cute vanilla version. They really should have previewed this first in the rules website.

I was going to say the flavour text is, while not haha funny, is weakly comical.

The card has me in stitches. This pariah is a Warrior and, other than the name and the art, I wouldn't really think that something with such stats and no abilities would be deserving of the card name. I suppose it works with the role reversal going on but it's a bit iffy.

Atleast the artwork is great!

Only, why red and not green, sounds more logical to me?

I get the Werewolf side, but the art hardly coalesces with the P/T.
actually by the time this guy gets out and gets to flip CoP should be able to take him easily

I thought Craw-Wulf had already been spoiled. Is this a new card?

Why wasnt this called something like "Aloof Wanderer"?

They could show you in one panel the big 3/2 Warrior trying to act stalwart around pestering vandals, and on the other side the dude just flipping out Werewolf style.

A creature to fill out your curve in your R/X sealed deck. A low-pick Werewolf which still helps make Moonmist good. Not much more.

It's too bad we didn't get a low cmc werewolf for the common. I'm sure it will be playable in draft.

that is the worst art on a card i´ve seen since Ekundu Cyclops (elf chick riding a boner, genitally mutilated cyclops etc etc...)

I´m pretty dissapointed. How did this actually pass the "ok this art is awesome, lets print it" test. It looks like a mediocre flash animation... -_-

What's the text actually say? Is it only a transform trigger on each side?

Pretty much. It's a bit wordier in German.

the only way I'll play this in limited is if it has a easy to activate transform trigger. even then, 6/4 for 4 usually won't make the deck list. even limited has better finishers.

It's likely got the same werewolf trigger that all the others do.

oh man, i LOVE that card.

it's all a matter of opinion. i'm not overly fond of this one, but i happen to have a huge nostalgic liking for the old cyclops there.
