3UU: Summon Beast/ Creature - Beast
Flying
T: Mawcore deals 1 damage to target creature or player.
From its maw comes neither word nor whisper - only wind.
-----
Neither head holds a brain - that's locaed somewhere in the chest - but four eyes aim much better than two.
3/3



hm... just flying.. bigger... progical sorcerer. A 5 for a 3/3 flyer is okay, but pings for one. I'm really half and half on this guy. Its a bit expensive, but a 1 damage ping can be nice from a guy who can survive a shock (unlike sorcerer)

The Duck's Rating: 2.5/5

 

[Shadow Trainer]

Flying and a pinging ability are nice for five mana, the 3/3 body is a little small though. 3/5

 

[Broodstar]

It's pretty suprising its blue, but I wish it was a 4/4 or 3/4 or something. 2/5 or maybe 2.5/5?

 

[~RaikouRider243~]

It's fairly costed, 5 for a 3/3 with "pokey"...Of course you can use an enchantment or equipmentto do the same thing, but the body is decent...it can survive a Shock. 3/5

 

[skiboydoggy]

Of course if it could do a TWO damage ping... Ahhh...
-Not going to give score-

 

[Felix Feral Fezirix]

It's a flexible blue card, but as usual with pretty good blue cards, slow like hell. 3/5, but I would have given it better if it did more.

 

[The_Darkness_Incarnate]

Er... what?

It's a flying fat timmy. Assuming I'm playing blue aggro, wouldnt I have better things to do with 5 mana rather than play this? Such as play a couple more flyers rather than this thing?

I can't think of a good reason to use this especially when Izzet just came out.

1-2/5

 

[skiboydoggy]

3/3 Flying for 5 is not bad already of course, although I tend to enjoy the pure evil that is the Blue Artificer more than most things, but that's that and the fact that it can ping over blockers is heavenly.

Yersh. Uber-flexible. Craptastic.
