Creature - Nightmare (U)
~ enters the battlefield with your choice of two different counters on it from among menace, deathtouch, and lifelink.
Most monsters are more frightening when they skitter unseen in the dark. Most.
3/3

This is an absolute monster in limited. Menace and deathtouch are always a frightening combo.

Also, I'm interested to see if they utilize this formatting in the future. It would let them make more cards that they might not have due to potential memory issues.

It's like Siamat from Hearthstone! A lot of this set makes me think of Hearthstone, actually, and not in a bad way.

I feel like Deathtouch will be something of a no-brainer, as if you want to deal lifelink damage it will probably ward off more stops than would Menace.

Mono Black Devotion gains yet another amazing 3-drop. But it really has enough already.
A more interesting question is: Will we get amazing 2-drops for it?
