For some reason, we're already sitting here talking about Invasion, and Prophecy hasn't even been released yet!
Anyway, what I'm looking for is everyone's opinions on what cards from Prophecy will be big in Constructed play once Prophecy becomes legal in July. Especially since none of you responded to my other post about my sealed deck.
My favorite picks are Shield Dancer, Diving Griffin, Reveille Squad and Plague Wind. I REALLY wish that Diving Griffin was a Rebel, but a 2/2 flyer that doesn't tap to attack is a great deal for 3 mana. Shield Dancer blocks anything on the ground (my opponents wouldn't even attack with anything once this hit the board), and Reveille Squad allows you to attack with unblockable creatures or flyers and still get them back on defense if you need them, or a free untap of cards like Llanowar Elves or Deepwood Drummer if your opponent attacks. Plague Wind flat out wins games in sealed (I won every game I managed to cast it in), but I think, with mana acceleration, it can hit just as hard in Constructed (although Massacre may do the same thing in most situations).
Are there any other standout cards out there? If you played the card in a prerelease, all the better, but you don't have to limit yourself to cards you played with (although I did).
