New Theros Card!

Master of Waves - 3(U)

Creature - Merfolk Wizard: Rarity: Mythic

Protection from Red

Elemental creatures you control get +1/+1

When Master of Waves enters the battlefield put a number of 1/0 blue Elemental creature tokens onto the battlefield equal to your devotion to blue

2/1.

Thoughts?

It's hilarious that the MtG webpage is slow b/c of people refreshing it to see what the new preview cards are.

I like how if he leaves the party he takes his posse with him.

I'm more excited for the new black Horror.

Nighthowler
1bb
Enchantment Creature - Horror
Rare
Bestow 2BB
Nighthowler and enchanted creature each get +X/+X, where X is the number of creature cards in all graveyards.
0/0

landgrafb - yeah, I saw that later. And for a 4 CMC enchantment, he's pretty boss.

4cc enchantment creature. If the thing you're Bestowing leaves the battlefield, you still keep the Horror as a creature. That's why it's generally so expensive to Bestow something.

The new azorius dude has me pretty hard right now too.

September 3, 2013 12:37 a.m.

lol. He could be pretty boss in Limited, but I think he'll be outclassed in Standard. Granted, he is only Uncommon.

Aura him up all day. Makes me consider splashing blue.

landgrafb - Daxos is actually a rare, so you'll probably see him in some limited formats. But he looks like an absolute beast in Commander.

Sorry landgrafb, you were talking about the Hoplite. My bad.

September 3, 2013 12:42 a.m.

Master of Waves could easily make Merfolk tribal a Standard deck.

He also has the possibility of finding another home in niche Young Pyromancer builds. BluePyromancerSplashRed.dec.

September 3, 2013 12:42 a.m.

And yeah, Hoplite. Daxos is ok, too, I guess. I don't think he's consistent enough for constructed, though. We'll see where the meta takes us.

Btw, have you guys seen the Sylvan Caryatid?

Sylvan Caryatid - 1(G)

Creature - Plant/ Rarity: Rare

Defender, Hexproof

Tap: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool

0/3

Cheap and easy mana fixing for any deck with Green in it.
