Yes. Although it sucks that we compare all 3cc creatures to TNN (and MM now, maybe, I guess).Quote:

yes but Atarka is in a different universe in terms of quality compared to the green fight dragon or the gruul beast.Quote:

5 damage divided as you choose is pretty good utility and a 8/8 flying trample is a "solid" clock.
Correction: I compare all 3cc blue creatures that are deliberately designed to be resilient to True-Name Nemesis.Quote:

I'm not a NO connoisseur, but Arc Lightning for 8 vs creatures + evasive Fatty does seem pretty appealing.Quote:

Unnatural Selection is a card.
Phyrexian Dreadnought
Wall of Blood
Moltensteel Dragon
Or whatever. There are a lot of good warriors anyway.
There's a :1::b: in that activation cost which makes it much weaker.Quote:

Drain-Fling the rest of your army of free would be a tad bid strong.Quote:

Some notable growable warriors in the 1-3cc range are:
Champion of Lambholt
Chief of the Edge
Countryside Crusher
Goblin Piledriver
Hero of Leina Tower
Seeker of the Way
Tymaret, the Murder King
Varolz, the Scar-Striped
Pump spells/equipment can do the rest.
more cards
Sarkhan Unbroken 2GUR
+1: Draw a card, then add 1 mana of any color to your mana pool
-2: put a 4/4 red flying dragon onto the battlefield
-8: Search library for any amount of dragons and put them onto the battlefield
Dragonlord Ojutai 3WU
Flying
Has Hexproof as long as it is untapped
Whenever deals combat damage look at the top 3 cards of your library and put on into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library
5/4
And I think from Modern Masters:
Lilian Heretical Healer 1BB
Lifelink
Whenever another nontoken creature you control dies, exile ~ and return her to battlefield transformed. If you do put a 2/2 black zombie token onto the battlefield
2/3
Liliana, defiant necromancer
+2 each player discards a card
-X reanimate non-legend with converted mana cost X or less from your graveyard
-8: Emblem with "whenever a creature dies, return it to battlefield under your control at the beggining of next end step

This card seems ridic....

this is the card my gsz / no brew has been waiting for!

Prog and Hoof are awesome game ender targets, no doubt. Hoof wins for Elves, and Progenitus wins for non-Elves as a default mainboard choice.Quote:

Where Atarka would be strong is against specific problem cards, or lots of small things (it can kill Peacekeeper/a bunch of opposing Elves/2 Delvers/2 Deathrites/Jace + a creature sometimes/Liliana + a creature sometimes/other things that I can't think of).
I agree that Prog and Hoof are likely just better most of the time, but being that Ruric Thar can see play sometimes, Atarka doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility.
That will be from Origins.Quote:

Sarkhan Unbroken seems good. I hesitate to say the +1 ability is basically the whole card, but kinda yeah, it is a silly good + ability even on a 5cmc permanent. The - is clearly great for creating a blocker - a flying one at that. No Delver whittling at its loyalty (I heard that was a drawback, somewhere).
Really both planeswalkers spoiled so far look pretty intriguing, can't wait to never own any :/
He's pretty good, but hard to cheat into play, and, in legacy, at 5cc he's competing with cards that win the game immediately like Ad Nauseam.Quote:

I'm almost certain this card will see zero competitive Legacy play, but perhaps this ability (critters that add mana on attack) could eventually show up on a Modern/Legacy worthy card. Great ability for Green/Red and a good way to push mana acceleration in a "fair" way.Quote:
Savage Ventmaw 4RG
Flying
Whenever Savage Ventmaw attacks, add RRRGGG to your mana pool. Until end of turn, this mana doesn't empty from your mana pool as steps and phases end.
4/4
I know, right?Quote:
