This is a hypothetical encounter between Domri Rade and Garruk Wildspeaker, where naive young Domri makes the mistake of approaching the cursed Garruk thinking him to be simply a fellow beastmaster, only to find himself fighting for his life.

Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
Thanks for writing in! Golgari Germination definitely helps support the sacrifice theme. I'd be looking for some more fodder creatures for the Garruk deck, or possibly some cheap deathtouchers that can trade with Domri's creatures and enable Morbid.
