you should definitively watch this awesome match where Thomas Enevoldsen survives 2 emrakul attacks: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=c-Twz77o0p8Quote:

I think bahra streams with it, or at least used to, which would mean that there'd be replays to watch. I'm not 100% though, since I don't really watch streamers.Quote:

Whenever another nontoken creature enters the battlefield under your control, bolster 1.
2/2
Counters -1/-1 effects and has synergy with Karakas and Flickerwisp. I like it.
yes was just thinking the same!! Think it will be neat as a 2 off orso

It would have to take the spot for a beater, since it doesn't hate on anything really. It only improves our creatures in combat.Quote:

hard to say just how good (if any) it will be, but I don't think this is a sideboard card against -1-1 effects. It would be quite clunky and vulnerable at that. If this ends up shining, I suspect it will be in the main deck, probably in place of the Avenger slots...
Anafenza seems slow, encourages potentially over extending, requires investment to out beat Mirran Crusader/Serra Avenger and is a medicore top deck. Crusader and Avenger can also beat through most blockers, while Anafenza cannot. It'd be cool to be wrong but I don't think she's playable in DNT.
hi, want to clarify that i've never actually played this deck, so my opinion isn't worth that much, but is there a reason why Honor of the Pure isn't considered as an answer to Dread of Night?
I can answer that.
I have used Honor of the Pure in the past. It is not terrible. But it is just narrow. It does nothing on its own. It is an answer to hate which is generally not what you want to be doing in anything except a combo deck. If -1 effects are enough to completely destroy a deck that is not combo, you need to start over on the deck.
That said, the replacement answer that many folks use is Wilt-Leaf Liege which is far more broad.
As for the Anafenza, I would be more inclined if bolster let you choose the target. 2/2 moms are not impressive.
Council's judgement, disenchant and oblivion ring all answer cards like Dread of Night whilst also dealing with other problems. Anthem/Honour of the Pure effects are just too narrow and aren't worth wasting sideboard slots.Quote:

As for the comment on wishing you could choose which creature you get to buff, you basically do get this range of choice in DNT since SO many of the creatures have 1 toughness. Say hello to 3/2 thalia's and 4/2 flickerwisps.
Essentially, I like my creatures in DNT to be as tricky as possible, and Serra Avenger just isn't that. It's good at carrying equipment, but so are Flickerwisp, Thalia, and Mirran Crusader. At least Anafenza is another card to reward us for playing Karakas, as well as assist in beating the various small sweeper sideboard cards that so many decks lean on to beat us. I fully admit that I might be overvaluing it, but I think its worth the testing time and I will be looking to trade for a foil copy. :cool:
Got excited seeing Legendary Creature - Spirit Soldier. Anafenza, the only spirit without flying~ I keep hoping for that Legendary 2/x flier at 2cc - some of the application against Delver that Serra Avenger has (trading/mom advantage) - the awesome Karakas interactions against attrition matches.
I preordered a few to give them a spin anyway. I'm not too hopeful, but testing will tell.
Kamigawa block has tons of non-flyer white spirits.:tongue:Quote:

If only the sac ability was free...it might even be playable.Quote:
