I just read the spoiler on that guy earlier. I just read the text and hadn't noticed the rarity. That makes it even worse. You can't win. Why play it then? Worse yet, you can still lose. Grinning Demon wasn't very good at the same casting cost. So you add flying and trample, at the cost of going from losing 2 life a turn to not being able to win?!
And mythic. Ugh. Really. Now this is certainly a case of using the rarity for something other than they stated it was for, right?
Apparently they need to balance out the OMG THESE ARE AWESOME!!!ONE!!11! type mythics with some that are just plain bad. Yay for seeing a mythic rare come from your pack that is blatanly worse than the land in the pack.
I <3 Mytic Rares!!
It is starting at 20 bucks a copy on SCG?
$20? Seriously? Who is going to pay that?!!
Are we missing something big? Something that makes this guy $20?
Think 6/6 flier with trample followed by baneslayer. That's 11 on turn 5, or 4 if you play the new silly signet thing. The standard guys are looking at it that way and just killing it when it's time to kill the opponent. I kind of agree that it isn't too hard to kill your own guy if you really want to, but still...
I hope I pull a foil one out of one of my boxes so I can unload it before the hype dies off.
I'm calling it the new Lotus Cobra.
Anything on he 4th turn looks good when followed by Baneslayer. Hill Giant looks good.Quote:

AWESOME!
Wow! Am I reading that correctly? That actually triggers for each creature that would attack?!! That's the best damned propaganda ever. 3RR is a standard red cost for a 5/4, the ability is pushing it to the wall. Damned fine card.
Oh, that shitty one is up to $30 on SCG now
Told you! Standard guys are going ape shit over it. All you gotta do is beat face then make it die.
Combine it with this: http://www.wizards.com/mtg/images/tc...GWWK_EN_LR.jpg
I would just like to point out, for the record, that no deck in any format with an Abyssal Persecutor in the decklist has top 8'd any major tournament. Just thought you might want to know.
AND IT'S DOWN TO 16 DOLLARS.
