This just made my night, for sure picking a few of those Rhox Faithmenders up when M13's out.
In other news, I don't think I've seen a collection of life-gaining cards all in one deck quite as large as this puppy is. I mean, holy crap man. You'll be at 40 in no time, then bam, Felidar Sovereign, gg.
I can see this deck being quite annoying to play against if you are stalled. Seems like a fun concept though. I would add a couple of felidar sovereigns as it seems like the best wincon.

Knight of Meadowgrain was uncommon, not common. It's also pretty high on the power level scale for limited, so I'm okay with them giving us a worse version. But yes, it is a worse version, but cat > kithkin for casual players (Though knight > cleric or either race, so Meadowgrain still wins).

looking to play magic in the Albany, NY area? come on down to New York Sports @ Yankee Dugout. We do events almost every night of the week including our Sunday night standard. Check us out for a fun place to play.
We have little information on the new Ajani, but considering the great synergy between his Sunstriker, the Rhox, and the Serra Avatar, I think it is safe to assume his abilities will be similar to his original card: improve creatures, gain life, then life-total based ultimate.
If the store owner says that I can't trade in the premises, I'll just go outside. If he says that I can't trade within 10m of his premises, I'll go to 11 meters. If he says that he doesn't want to see me trading, I will put a basket over his head and continue trading.
Yes, he's a local legend. He's only known to take his clothes off before he goes into the Ladies' Lockerroom. Nobody knows what he does in there because he's invisible, but it's almost certainly tons of masturbating.
Interesting, but isn't sunstriker just a worse Knight of Meadowgrain? I mean surely the card could just cost 1W.
It's definitely cast that way for limited. Before Markhov Patrician Lifelink at common had never happened before. It is an extremely powerful ability for limited.
Sunstriker is indeed worse than Knight, but it's not terrible. I really like Rhox Faithmender. Gotta get a set of those for decks that I'll probably never build.

Quotes:
No. Do you think they'd reprint all those Phoenices too?
Another interesting note: the artwork for Fireblast in that deck is new. Hmmm...

Edit- someone already posted about it
Because it needs to be said in every Duels 2013 thread: Just because it shows up in a Duel game does not mean that it will receive any reprint.

Of course, of course. The new artwork is nice, though, so I hope it hits print at some point. Do I expect it to? Doubtful. Again, dreams.
