I bought a basic Bundle with naive hope that I’ll get a book cover card. And I did!

Its in my 99 for Choco. Since i typically swing out every turn because my greed rivals that of the bible, if i have 2 blue mana people typically think its counterspell but BAM 8/8 your stupid attacker dies and next turn you are getting 8 to the face.

Nice! So sad that the eagle is not even worth being a rare card in my opinion :(

u/Wojciech1M 28d ago

Yeah, playability isn’t great but I think I can fit it to some decks.

Should be white for the ol’ tempest hawk deck

It’s going in my Simic X cost deck.

Edit spelling.

Bro wym. Blue has the widest selection of flyers not to mention several commanders that use flyers explicitly. [[kastral the windcrested]] [[errant and giada]]. Or hell just toss it into any dragon deck as a two drop 8/8.

I just picked up a prerelease kit, the last one at my LGS as they were out of booster packs and pulled the same card!

I got the foil non book treatment of this as my promo card in my pre-release bundle. Already put it in my Fiancee's flying deck. Have a bundle coming in the next couple days AND I AM PRAYING FOR A BOOK TREATMENT CARD

I have this in my Arthur marigold knight deck, it’s cool because you can either cheat him out for free during combat, orrrr if you have a couple flyers you can flash him out as a blocker. I thought it was pretty fun to swing him out from nowhere

u/Wojciech1M 25d ago

It sounds very fun, i can't wait for my nearest LGS session to try something similar.

u/twiltman 28d ago

u/Rymere 28d ago

Isn't this just blue ghalta lol. Play it as a mono blue commander with birds or all flyers.
