Damn, I love how this card gives your opponents ammo to smack each other around, and they have to because they can't attack you. I wonder if I can fit this into Brion. A free 5 power creature to fling every turn is another fantastic bonus.
It's almost definitely going into my new Omnath deck. At 5 mana though, I'm not sure what it will actually replace. I wanna say Where Ancients Tread, but then this is just so good with that card, doubt it's worth swapping one out for the other instead of running them side by side.
I agree. Also I feel Brion Stoutarm seems a shoe-in for being reprinted in the RW deck. They've printed a number of legendary creatures in past version of these decks that weren't one of the three mythic rare commanders the decks were focused around, so I feel Brion has a good chance at being one of the 97 in RW.
Could be dangerous using this against decks that use sacrifice shenanigans....hmm Meren of Clan Nel Toth comes to mind. Otherwise it's interesting. And don't these kind of effects usually have an exile clause instead of sacrifice?

Tokens are often sacrificed, since the end result is frequently the same.
If it returned a creature during every player's upkeep, that would probably exile.

I love Ball Lightning variants, and this is right up the alley of my Ruhan force attacks/prevent attacks against you deck. Definitely might pick up one of the red decks for this.
Bit dangerous to run out against an active Mazirek - against the BG precon in general, really - but it seems like great fun against decks that don't feast on sacrifice fodder. Just keeps flinging out slightly smaller Ball Lightnings turn after turn after turn. Very much an aggro card.
Also, the name of the token is amazing. I don't know exactly what kind of alters I'm expecting of the cards (the enchantment itself and its tokens), but I know that I'm expecting them.

The moment I read this spoiler, I heard a squeal coming from the deckbox where I keep my Omnath.

You get a 5/1 every turn, too.
No, in 1v1 you still get a token to smack your opponent with. They get one that cannot attack you back.
Rancored Elf will cancel your order if prices go up. Read about him and other shady vendors here.

Not necessarily. ETB triggers, sac outlets, etc. Has limited use but not useless.

Even better with Gisela, Blade of Goldnight - hits for 10 if not blocked and has trample...

Fun with Purphoros, God of the Forge and Warstorm Surge... bad idea with Pandemonium.
