And yes, no incantatrix for you. Or anyone. That class makes puppies cry. Mostly because they are the former Big Bads who have been Baleful Polymorphed into said puppies. By you. Because you're an incantatrix.

This is Deraxas we're talking about.
Remember, the girl that just killed an aspect of herself before literally consuming her?
Yeah, I don't see her handling a pissing match in any way other than a duel.

I suppose it's true. Though the logistics implied in a human/Great Wyrm Prismatic Dragon pairing makes me shudder.
...Something tells me that even should all arcane casters in the world unite, that the Grease spell would NOT be sufficient.

The sparkmage shrieked, calling on the rage of the storms of his youth. To his surprise, the sky responded with a fierce energy he'd never thought to see again. Lightning Bolt
Enourmous Baloth is still one of my faves
"Its diet consists of fruits, plants, small woodland animals, large woodland animals, woodlands, fruit groves, fruit farmers, and small cities."
And Havoc Demon is probably one of the sickest ones
"A cry of pain as it enters this world. A chorus of screams as it leaves."
The new Lightning Bolt and Terramorphic Expanse are my two all-time favourites, just because they resonate so much. Lightning Bolt in the context of a veteran Magic player, and Terramorphic in the context of Time Spiral block.

The hound sniffed the air and let slip a low growl. General Takeno looked down at the faithful Isamaru and calmed him with a touch. "Alert the men. The kami are coming."
Loyal Sentry, that I don't have to autocard to quote:
"My cause is simple: To stop you, at any cost, from ever seeing the inside of this keep."
A little emphasis added
I wish the 'stop' had been a 'prevent'.
The only one that compares is Akroma's Memorial, though certainly the feeling one gets from that depends on knowledge of Akroma. I wonder what it's like to see that card and not know of Akroma.

Keen-Eyed Archers: If it has wings, shoot it. If it doesn't, shoot it anyway. Wake of Destruction: Land charred black and rivers boiled, Crops and wells alike despoiled, Mountains leveled, forests felled, Footprints of the beasts of Keld. Laquatus's Disdain: The first time was amusing, but now you're getting tiresome. Bonded Fetch: A well-made homunculus grooms the mind of its master, pruning the thoughts that lead to madness. Few loredelvers survive the study of the infinite without one. Gruul War Plow: Steering apparatus? What for? Rip it out, sharpen it, and lash it to the front!
I typed those all from memory. Except the following, it's too new. Zombie Goliath:"Phirax of Blood Ridge has sent a war giant at us? What, do I have to spell it out for you? Kill the giant, scoop out its skull, and drive it back to Blood Ridge. Honestly, what kind of necromancer minions are you?"
A few of my favorite blue flavor texts are: Last Word: "Someday, someone will best me. But it won't be today, and it won't be you." Standstill: "Take your time." And Long-Term Plans: "Wait, it'll come to me in a minute."
Many of my other favorites are goblins that have been mentioned, but I'll think of more.

I really wish that the art of Goblin Chieftain could match how well-written the flavor text is. "We are goblinkind, heirs to the mountain empires of chieftains past. Rest is death to us, and arson is our call to war." Flavor text usually depicts goblins as dumb, but I like the image I get of the one brilliant goblin strategist or general from this blurb.
"Everyone has a price"
It just makes sense.

Despite being a pretty terrible card, the text is hilarious, and the picture really helps the text.
"'Davvol, blast those elves.' 'Davvol, transport those troops.' No one cares that today is my birthday."
Definitely one of my favorites.:toot:
