wow, this guy's not awful. seems like just a solid choice for a green aggro deck in general. also encourages not overextending and playing carefully with its pump.
Take your monoblack deck, then set aside 14 swamps. Add 4 Creeping Tar Pits, 4 Darkslick Shores, 4 Drowned Catacombs, and 2 Jwar isle Refuge and add 4 Jace, the Mindsculptors. Your monoblack deck is instantly better. Better yet, drop those refuges, throw in some islands and some mana leaks, and lo and behold, you're now playing a real deck. Congratulations. Welcome to the world of competitive M:TG.

I'm surprise it is a rare. The werewolf side should be interesting. As it is, it's very good. Play it turn 1 then in turn you pump it, attack and pass allowing it to transform.
Edit: Well, it is also nice. If let you use your mana in latter turns when you have played more werewolves to let them transform. A very good 1-drop if you ask me.
Oh hey a decent buddy for Reckless Waif!
And he pumps himself so he's not 300% worthless in Human form!
Here's to hoping WotC keeps goo'ens like this coming for the red side and maybe a few sorcery/ instant/ enchantments that can help them transform.

you can generally tell the easiest road to victory by how many players congregate on it; and the road of counterspells/control has been the freeway of choice in magic for quite some time.

What I find offensive is not that Wizards is endeavoring to make the game more accessible, but the attitudes of elitists who act as though no one of any age should show their face in the Magic public without first having mastery over the complexities of the game.
Wow, that's pretty solid. There might actually be a somewhat competitive werewolf deck. I mean this guy is swinging in for 6 on turn 4, assuming he is flipped. Although I would've liked it if they had made his night side pump be for 3 instead of 4, just for curve reasons, but this is still powerful.
EDIT: The night side was posted a few minutes ago.
Will be curious to see the flip side.

The pump gives you something to do on turns where you just want to let your werewolves flip...
watch the drawback be something akin to losing that pump ability.
Edit: Well, it is also nice. If let you use your mana in latter turns when you have played more werewolves to let them transform. A very good 1-drop if you ask me.
I still say it should have been Wild Mongrel

I'm happy with it. Its a heavy mana investment but it allows you to continue beating while forcing a flip.
That would be madness!:o
