You mean like Melira, Sylvok Outcast?
She's even a green 2/2, like real bears.
This set is actually bizarrely full of late "Oh shit, here's a hate card" entries. You've got Mistcaller and Infernal Reckoning for the Aetherworks Marvel deck, this thing for Marvel and the multicolor energy decks, Smelt for Vehicles, all of the token hate that's presumably directed at Saprolings and Vampires even though those decks are stillborn in Standard right now...it's like once they decided they needed a Core Set as a safety valve for Standard, they decided to pull out all the stops.
Too bad the ban list mopped up all of these problems already. Oh well.
New Pox-like card, but it's 5 mana. Dunno how playable that is in a Pox style deck.

Each player loses half life, discards half cards, sacrifices half creatures. Round up.
Hmm, doesn't hit lands. Useless.
Seems like a pure edh card.

While having hate cards is a good thing, it's really bizarre how extremely narrow (and thus pretty much unusable) most of those cards are. E.g. Amulet of Safekeeping is Skylasher-tier in terms of narrowness.
As a hate card, this one is really weak. As a 1/4 for though, this is about what sorts of function to expect. Honestly though, I'm having a hard time finding much of any use for this card, given the narrow text. This one is like, Sorrow's Path kinda useless.
"Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."
"Politicians are like diapers. They should be changed often and for the same reason."
"Governing is too important to be left to people as silly as politicians."
"Politicians were mostly people who'd had too little morals and ethics to stay lawyers."
Not too sure what to think about that one. Doesn't seem Legacy-good to me on the first glance.

Really only relevant if you're old enough to remember when Jayemdae Tome was good.
He's also best buddies with the new Karn as you curve into them and they complement each other rather well. Both can produce tokens that grow Karn's tokens, the artifacts boost Tezzeret's draw. Once the red menace is over, Standard is going to have field day with this as you shit out tokens and card advantage out the wazoo.
Hah! Skeleton Archer has creature types 'skeleton archer'. Pretty lazy of WotC... Are there any other creatures like this whose name is simply it's creature types?
