MTG Salvation

This thing works with a surprising number of creatures, actually.

Cephalid Constable, Mistblade Shinobi, Riptide Entrancer, Riptide Pilferer, Rootwater Thief, Scalpelexis, Soul Seizer...

And that's not counting all of the Ophidian variants out there. Fun for tiny commanders and a fun commander in general... not to mention the lore significance.

The closest to a Rogue Tribal commander we'll see for a while, although most rogues are already unblockable. Shame he's mono blue but might provide incentive for me to play blue for once - I like the idea of dealing damage with a side order of shenanigans to go with it.

Come on, lady, you couldn't be black like the other Umezawas? You and Doran could've been such good friends... She's still a very fun card, and I look forward to abusing her ability.

Keep in mind one bit of the ability that everyone's overlooked so far;
Power or Toughness of one. Frail elementals like Frost Walker and all KINDS of red stuff if you're running it in an izzet deck.

I've already found at least one toughness=1 critter in blue, should anyone want to make her a commander--Surrakar Spellblade. And I'm sure blue will like to have a wide swath of sorceries and instants...

Or toughness, huh?

Bloodforged Battle-Axe just found a new home.

Would Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive be the type of card that you would carry one or two in your mainboard, or three to a playset of four?
