I think I love everything about this card except for the mana cost. The border works really well with the art. Part of a cycle? |

I could see this being part of a cycle. The mana cost is prohibitive because this will be extremely powerful in limited. If it was more aggressively costed the rarity would have to increase. |

It says in the article that this is part of a cycle. So, Flying, Trample, Vigilance, Haste and Deathtouch again, like those Maze guys from Dragon's Maze? |

I agree I like everything about this but the mana cost. |

At uncommon? That's pretty sweet. Makes all of your dudes unblockable unless you are playing against green (In which case they are just probably mostly unblockable). |

It's very interesting- and probably a powerful uncommon bomb for sealed and to a lesser extent draft (as I'm sure the rest of the cycle will be.) This one has great art- making me really hope that one of the minor gods leans heavily on the Morpheus mythology. Other than that, there isn't much to say. 3 mana is a touch expensive for a static ability like this, the sheer tempo loss from this guy getting Shocked or Magma Jetted would make this rather bad- and the ability would probably require 2+ turns on the field to pay for itself. So unless one of these generates some kind of nutty synergy, I doubt any of them will see standard play. |

Everyone loses flying if this is on both sides of the board, right? |

Correct. |

Maybe the green one prevents all noncombat damage and life loss dealt by creatures your opponents control to you? |

I wish he has flying so that flying lord from m14 could make him cost 1 less... |

Yeah, it's sad that he only has flying after he gets played. |

I like that this card and Wonder imply that we just need to think more creatively to start flying. |
