Well, I leaked some 'tech to someone last Friday, and they went ape saying how it didn't work.
It's as of today on StarCityGames.com as their big issue. I say it's still not as effective as the Flying genju...
...but I havn't tested it in Chaos or other more casual formats, yet.
Some have compared it to Exhalted Angel, a comparison that is a bit... undercooked, for sure.
For those of you who don't want to take a look at SCG, here's the trick:
The card's ability makes a land a 2/5 creature each time it activates. Each resolved activation reverts the P/T to 2/5 and gives it an ability.
However, the ability does not dissappear if activated multiple times-- the text "gain life equal to the amount this damages" appears multiple times on the affected card.
This means it can deal two damage and if pumpped five times, give five triggers that give two life each.
How good is it, really?
