Frenetic Raptor

Creature — Dinosaur

Beasts can't block.

Caerwyn on Dominaria release notes posted

The following dinosaurs have appeared on Dominaria--each received errata to Dinosaur was it was added as a subtype.

Dromosaur, Frenetic Raptor, Fungusaur, Imperiosaur, Putrid Raptor, Pygmy Allosaurus, Ridgetop Raptor, and Shivan Raptor.

That said, while they have appeared, I highly doubt we will see dinosaurs in this set. And that's fine--Dominaria should have Beasts and Kavu. Dinosaurs are not really right for the plane (or really most planes).

Rampaging Ferocidon is really good for edh. It can stop token decks from going infinite, it will draw the hate from the rest of your board, and it stops lifegain decks as well. Yeah it hurts you but I dont think dinos are going to be dropping 3+ creatures on the board without the commander on the field. At that time, anything that can draw the hate from the MEGA dino is welcomed. I would take out Frenetic Raptor for it. the raptor just seems lackluster in my opinion. 6 drops need to be change the game and it is really just a 6/6 for 6. Maybe Bear Umbra for infinite attack steps with Aggravated Assault? Plus totem armor is really good.

Thanks Antwaan33, I am currently running Pygmy Allosaurus as I believe that to be the best due to Swampwalk (but that is specific playgroup) and of course it is the original dinosaur. Putrid Raptor is black. Alpha Tyrranax is a vanilla creature and I want cards that impact the board state more at its cost. Deathmist Raptor does not synergize with this deck. Imperiosaur doesn't do much for the deck and will be pretty hard to cast. Tyrranax's ability doesn't do much for the deck, especially at its cmc. Dromosaur and Pangosaur are quite frankly terrible. Ridgetop Raptor, Ripscale Predator, and Shivan Raptor are decent but not standout spectacular. That leaves: Frenetic Raptor, which is fairly niche; Magmasaur, which fits quite well in my deck Enrage Enabled but not great in this list as here I am not focousing on Enrage that much; and Fungusaur, which I am currently looking for a place for.

I wonder if Frenetic Raptor will be changed so dinosaurs can't block.
