Hornet Nest 2G
Creature — Insect (R)
Defender
Whenever Hornet Nest is dealt damage, put that many 1/1 green Insect creature tokens with flying and deathtouch onto the battlefield.
0/2
I want to make this indestructible. Go on, attack with your polukranos now! He shall die a death by 10,000 hornets! Well...only 1 of the 5 hornets is needed to kill him...but still! Hornet swarm!
like if you use it to block a 2+ power creature and your deck has 6+ power dudes then you will probably be winning ( unless your op can kill all the tokens)
also you may deal damage to it with a instant like Heat Ray while you have the green paragon in play ( make X 2/2 flying deathtouch)
9/10 if it was constructed playable i would give 10/10
My favorite combo with this? Acorn Catapult. Is it good? No. Is it hilarious to whack the hornets nest with an acorn every turn, getting a squirrel and a hornet? Yes.
You don't call "dying to removal" if the removal is more expensive in resources than the creature. If you have to spend BG (Abrupt Decay), or W + basic land (PtE) to remove a 1G, that is not "dying to removal". Strictly speaking Goyf dies to removal, but actually your removal is dying to Goyf.
Awesome flavor. Not-insignificant violation of color pie, however.

Edit: Never mind. Didn't know that Hornet Queen was in M15, too.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker R -- Maga, Traitor to Mortals B -- Ghave, Guru of Spores BGW -- Sliver Hivelord WUBRG
the wording makes it funny against burn spells as a last possible target.
in limited it is soo good

Very, very!
This is flavor I can appreciate in my cards.
Could be good against aggro.

Think bigger, get greedier! Shivan Meteor and Blasphemous Act for the kicks!

I would say that Hornet Queen means we are finally getting some tokens for Hornet Queen
On spoiled card wishlisting and 'should-have-had'-isms:

Kick the Hornet Nest and you will be kicking up some trouble.
Seems like a cool card. It will for sure be good in limited.
Funny, most of the hornets I know tend to build their nests in the ground, so that you can step on them like some sort of dastardly landmine.
Seems like green might get to have fliers after all, albeit in a restricted niche. Tokens, weenie birds and insects, I suppose.
