Flame Dragon Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 [img]http://magiccards.info/scans/en/eve/86.jpg[/img] I've wanted this card for a while and after finding and buying some Eventide packs, I pulled it. I was happy panda. Any, thoughts on this kick ass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Nothing Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Can't you get this from simply buying the black white eventide structure? Anyways, put the [MTG] tags in your topic title. This card's a good card in theory, but it's not...amazing. If there was a way for it to gain power after the 25 life, it'd be much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sob, I thought I did that. sigh You mean get getter after the +4/+4? Really, if you can get this up to 8/8 you shouldn't have to many troubles. Also, how do the EDH and other formats work when you start with more then 20 life? I want to think you need to get the same increase (+5 life fore this) but since poison killed at 10 even in Two Headed Giant and they need to make a ruling on that I'm not sure.

King of Nothing Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 The card would still be an 8/8 with 40 life, without needing the increase. As long as you have 25 or more life, it will be an 8/8. It's just like if you started out with 1 life, 6 wouldn't make it an 8/8, you'd still need 25. And like I said, an 8/8 is good, but flying pretty much kills it. Almost all forms of good creature removal can destroy it. It's black, which gives it protection from a lot of black spells, but since i side flying removal in my green deck, I wouldn't be to worried about it.

[/quote] I think I'd rather it be a 4 mana 4/4 lifelink with the bump effect, though. Yeah flying's cool, but... I guess its better in theory.

[/quote] I don't really side against flying, I just have a few plummets in my deck. Flying is very common in decks. Besides, in the format that this was printed...it really wasn't that good. The Shadowmoor/Eventide format had better then this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
