If race/class is so vital to creatures, why doesn't Hero of Bladehold produce Human soldier tokens? Do Soldiers suddenly have no race?
Looking at Standard cardpool, I see Elspeth Tiriel as well.. But then I see Conqueror's Pledge in the same cardpool. Kor Soldiers are allowed but Humans are not, apparently.
So is this just limited to 'Human' race? I haven't investigated any of the others.
Isn't this just completely arbitrary?
I'm guessing they're trying to tip-toe around Human race to avoid being overpowered. Looking around at some of the other 'good' tribes, that seems a bit laughable. (Slivers, Goblins, Elves)
Thoughts?

That's specifically what prompted this thread in the first place.
