There are indeed black bear, but I was just referencing the part where there were 50 brown bear attack and 18 cougar attacks during that time frame. Plus, wouldn't your second point on that post partially refute the point of your previous post in that it suggests that habit and not population is a larger part of what makes bears more dangerous?
It's a combination of the two. Mountain lions encounters are just generally rarer then bear encounters, despite natural hunting grounds.
Jace on the other hand gives you card advantage for no life cost. On the contrary, Jace can actually take some damage for you. I'd think that makes him better than Arena.
Perhaps some, but if you look at their range, cougars in North America inhabit a much more populated area along the west coast with populations in Oregon and California reaching around 10,000 while there are only about 1,200 brown bears in the contiguous United States. Granted that there are far more bears than cougars but 95% of US brown bears live Alaska, one of our least populated states while the rest of the North American population live in sparsely-populated northern Canada.
There are also Black bears as well. I have seen 1+ Black Bears every year I go up to Yosemite, but have only seen a Mountain Lion once.
Plus, there is a huge difference between bears and mountain lions in terms of food. The main reason humans interact with bears is because bears like to raid dumpsters. Mountain lions have no interest in doing so.

Yeah... this has no relevance. It's all interesting information but we're discussing how many unarmed men it would take to kill a grizzly bear in an infinitely large arena. In regards to your other point, I would say that the fact that mountain lions have only killed around 18 people in North America from 1890 to 2005 and bears have killed over 100 in that time frame (50 from brown bears) makes it seem to me that bears might just be a wee bit more threatening.
And you don't think that has anything to do with species population?
