griffstick That sounds like a very Dungeons & Dragons interpretation of gargoyles.

TypicalTimmy I think gargoyles tend to be artifact creatures when they're carved or shaped--compare Tower Gargoyle and Biblioplex Assistant to the more natural Kjeldoran Gargoyle and Basalt Gargoyle. An Earth Elemental doesn't have differentiation; it's basically a pile of rocks or whatever in a more or less humanoid shape (or animalistic, for Greater Stone Spirit and probably others). That's my working theory.

Reaver Gargoyle

DERPLINGSUPREME on new commander variant went surprisingly …

7 years ago

so what we've been doing for a little while is

-open an old pack

-shufle it up

-everyone takes one random card.

so then we build a commander deck around it with it as your general.

forexample: this week I brought a pack of time spiral. I got Basalt Gargoyle, and the other pulled were Momentary Blink, Wipe Away , and Penumbra Spider.

so now I'm making a mono red voltron with lots of value and utility

a particularly interesting part of this is that, b/c you know what commander's there'll be beforehand, you can pack some hate! so I'll be packing Active Volcano, Hydroblast and Red Elemental Blast for it

its really fun, and i'd suggest trying it out :)
