Wins games on its own with its beefy, flying/haste goodness? Check.
Uncounterable by n00bs who try to counter it before the trigger resolves? Check. Re-animates "dead" copies of itself that are in your graveyard for free, an ability which cannot be countered (although it could be stifled, of course)? Check.
Outside the range of most red/black removal? Check.
Yeah, it's good. It's real good.
That was the one ability that made me wonder when I first saw that card: "Is this a fake?"
It would still be pretty good with just flying and haste...
Vote: Demigod of Revenge
HM: Aeon Chronicler
Avatar of Woe = Overpriced, but shines in multi-player and casual. Limited bomb.
It's also one of the best reanimation targets in this class (Spirit of the Night being one of the better ones). Visara is better, but not by much (and fear 6/5> flying 5/5 legend). It can also very easily cost BB in any deck that dredges.
Demigod probably deserves the nod it got, I just think AoW is underrated.
Voted: Archon of Justice. Who ever said that chump blocking with a 4/4 flyer was a bad thing?

I still like Blazing Archon. It's great with Oath of Druids, or in re-animator, or some similar deck. The Archon of Justice may have more range, but Blazing Archon is genuinely scary and a must-deal-with card. 90% of the time Archon of Justice comes out, I just ignore it. You can't ignore Blazing Archon.
Blazing Archon. This card is so good. You play reanimate or oath it and suddenly aggro falls over and dies, while Archon of Justice just slows them down.

What Magic Color are You, MORON ?
Next: Horror. Ichorid is the current champion. Here are the Eventide Horrors:

Of course all the other Horrors are still eligible.

Let this great clan rest in peace (2001-2011)
Next: Archon Thanks to Eventide, the Archon population has doubled. Does Archon of Justice have what it takes to defeat Blazing Archon? You decide.
