Stromkirk is one B.A. vampire! Just strutting down the village thoroughfare. Knows he's good. Seriously, love the flavor on that guy. And the enchantment. Always been a Magic zombie fan, always will be.
Take your monoblack deck, then set aside 14 swamps. Add 4 Creeping Tar Pits, 4 Darkslick Shores, 4 Drowned Catacombs, and 2 Jwar isle Refuge and add 4 Jace, the Mindsculptors. Your monoblack deck is instantly better. Better yet, drop those refuges, throw in some islands and some mana leaks, and lo and behold, you're now playing a real deck. Congratulations. Welcome to the world of competitive M:TG.
Wow? Rooftop storm must be the card that Maro hinted at that would allow you to play your entire hand of creatures. Pretty underwhelming considering it costs 6...
Whenever you cast a Zombie with Rooftop Storm out, you are required by law to shout "IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!"
Edit: Also, how is the noble walking around in the sunlight?

Quote from Boing »
Into the Maw of Hell is a name so awesome, it deserves its own song.
It would be about a world of brown spikes and red fire, where men fight and scream and become blurry masses. Then it would change to somber, we learn that this glorious place exists only in Raymond Swanland's head. To visit it, you must enter the maw of Hell itself.
If you realistically think, "ok, when it hits the field it will be 3x the Lacerator in p/t majority of the game." you can assume it's better than it. what about cost though? "one B?!?!? no f!@#ing wey." This is where you should replace those lacerators with a death's shadow.
I like these quite a lot. Very flavorful.
As for power 'de-creep', it needed to happen very badly.
Also the sets only 25ish percent spoiled so don't get your panties in a twist just yet.

Brian Tinsman, Set Designer :?mana::snow::snow:
Legendary Creature – Human Designer (MR)
Brian Tinsman, Set Designer can only be cast during the third set of a block.
When Brian Tinsman, Set Designer enters the battlefield, ignore all flavor and mechanics of the first two sets in the block. "Ok so what do we have here... gothic horror? Scrap it. Expand the Devine Vs. Demonic duel deck to 244 cards and print it!"
2/2
The Noble is exactly what RDW needs to replace Goblin Guide. Rooftop Storm is going to do some stupid things as well. But I think the major news from these articles was that Phage is a Zombie. When did that happen?
I think the notions about making Humans a tribe are true. It creates strange wording on cards like sacrifice target human. Or like this one being "~ cant be blocked by Humans".
Rooftop Storm is a really cool cards from a flavor perspective.
Cool cards for sure... but dang.
Constructed viable? I don't think so.
EDH though, the storm could be really powerful in thraximundar.dec (would you still have to pay general tax for him or no?)
Both are awesome cards. The flavor for both is some of the best I have seen in a while. I just think it'll take a short while to get used the idea of red vampires, which have always been traditionally black.
I gotta look up what spell/creature gives all ogf your creatures flash. I think it'll make the zombies insane.
Stormkirk: Nothing special there. Pretty good, with no major drawback, but pretty standard for a creature.
Rooftop Storm: Frakenstein's Enchantement. But it's a bit on the expensive side. Then again....that's literally the only downside. Awesome if you can actually play it.
cool blue card...? (sarcasm) since when was blue part of the color pie 700cmc enchantments. Why does wotc print this kind of garbage? well if i pull this at least i'l have another coaster. i would be pissed to get this in sealed.
