Gren's Thoughts » Here is the answer to Griselbrand's draw power. Here is the answer to BLACK. It shuts down black (and red to some extent) pretty damn well, and you get a nice boost for your other creatures. However, that cost is pretty eh if you run it in multicolor decks. Angels fit in pure white anyway. Pure white decks won't have a problem with this card, but if you wanted to run one of the three "sisters" then this card may not be for you.

Art » THAT ART. <3 Terese Nielsen

Notes » Week 2 spoilers for AVR! Angel week, first three days being the multicolored angels.

Is it too soon to call this overpowered?  White token generation with angel buffs?

D:

My god. Just... yes.

For 4 mana, you get a Glorious Anthem with a 3/3 body that also stops most of Black's shenanigans.

Also, I'm not sure if I remember the wording, but does this also stop Pod, or is Pod one of those "Send monster to grave" cards, and not "Sacrifice Monster, get other monster."

Suddenly, every Phy-mana card printed not called Gitaxian Probe just doesn't seem that good anymore. In your face, Dismember!

Yeah, this card is bonkers. A 4 CMC, 3/3 Flying Anthem that destroys entire decks. If there's any problem with this card at all, is that 1WWW mana cost makes it really hard for anything multicolored, but still.



EFF: 9/10
ART: 7/10 (Nicely done, but still a generic angel)

What a racist cunt.

It kinda bothers me that they made her so white, though. She's basically unusable outside of white weenies. I mean, shit, she's powerful, but is she powerful enough to require getting that shafted? I'm really not sure she is.

She does mess with Pod, too.

Thankfully, some of us only play WW every block.

and those of us that play BB every block start to weep...
