bury the year Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Lantern Scout 2WCreature - Human Scout AllyRally — Whenever Lantern Scout or another Ally enters the battlefield under your control, creatures you control gain lifelink until end of turn.3/2 Another PAX Prime spoiler that fell by the wayside. I can see why this guy is rare: lifelink can be awful to go up against in limited when it's board-wide. He also immediately knocks Talus Paladin out of contention for a slot in my Modern brew, as being 3 CMC means he can be cheated out by CoCo! We'll see if he actually is playable, though. Haven't seen any new Allies at common or uncommon yet, and they're the bread and butter of the deck. (Finally, a minor quibble here, but why'd they drop the "[Placename] [RPG Class]" theme of naming the allies? That made them cool.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixty Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Seems pretty atrocious to go up against if they got Gideon/Retreat to Emeria/any more Ally token producers they decide to make. Seems nutty if you live the dream instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Rip mono red But really, this guy is a solid sideboard card against most red decks and a strong card on it's own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Taking it as a 3/2 for 3 that gives your team Lifelink for a turn can be very power (as Poc said, Mono Red just rolls over) and the huge potential the Ally type gives it makes it very interesting to see where this ends up.
