Did we do this one already ? I'm sorry if we did, I didn't check.

Pay more, and beat copters and block heart. Laugh at aggro whilst you ramp/grind. Card is on an awkward spot on the curve, so in the inital brews I have not included it much, but I could see this card becoming as ubiquitous as copter in duels, more so than heart of kiran. The crew means even control decks can have this huge anti aggro / anti walker tech if they can just get a servo or manadork in play.

Is every deck planning beyond t5 going to be 58 pretty good cards + 2 harvester in the long run ? I wouldn't call that totally unlikely. Discuss !

I think it's pretty busted.

It's obviously great. It's in basically all of my lists already. Crew 1 = game over man, game over.

I agree. This card will be everywhere. Heck, it is not even horrible for aggro. Not a top choice, but a 3/5 flier may make it's way into some aggro decks, for the mirror if nothing else.

I think this may be the top card of the set.

This'll be a nice replacement for the caravans in the decks that don't need the mana as much. It's a shame the 3 CMC spot is so crowded already.

I believe that card will be all over the meta. Prob be seeing threads in a couple weeks complaining it's OP. The only thing that may keep it tame is crowded 3 spots.

This card is so freaking busted! I haven't even downloaded the update yet, and I can't beat this thing. >:( Moss 2.0.

It stops copter... That's all you need in this meta to be good.
Actually, this, Copter, Caravan and Skysovereign should be in most creature based decks, just because they outclass other cards in the same slots.

This card just stops most agro decks in their tracks if it comes down T3 with any other creature on board. Just like Copter was a big factor in propping up agro last season, this will be a big factor in slowing down agro this season.

Don't you get to the point of over-saturation though, where you end up with a bunch of vehicles on the board but not enough creatures. I'm hesitant to use more than 5, even in dedicated vehicle decks.

Still we are expecting a lot of artifact hate right? 'Welcome back oh lowly Reclamation Sage, we missed you.'

I did not really see reclamation sage much during KLD but its been in a few since AER came out.

I guess I don't disagree that this particular Harvester looks busted for its CC and crew cost. But to m are the most a la Smuggler's Copter you want it out one curve, but it will be out with a target on its back.

Card is amazing. My experience has been if you play this card and your opponent doesn't have an immediate answer then the game just goes beyond their reach.

I've been running a Harvester/Caravan/Kiran vehicle core in a number of midrange decks (I'm usually running around 12 creatures which excludes Copter in my eyes) and it has put in a serious amount of work.
