Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn or Skillful LungeMTG Card: Skillful Lunge. But I vote Skillful LungeMTG Card: Skillful Lunge for removal.

Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn! It's a cheap flier, and tapping something every time it attacks is pretty dang strong. Plus, it's another good, evasive target for p/t pumping via Deranged OutcastMTG Card: Deranged Outcast, Increasing SavageryMTG Card: Increasing Savagery, Elder of LaurelsMTG Card: Elder of Laurels, Ulvenwald BearMTG Card: Ulvenwald Bear, etc.

Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn

Combat tricks FTW.

Hollowhenge Spirit is far better at being a combat trick than the Niblis is, what with its flash and 'remove from combat' effect. It's one-time-only but it has more impact, usually.

I think Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn is the way to go here, though. I'm not fond of him unless you can pump his power, but as dorminjake pointed out, we've got plenty of ways to do just that in our deck.

Young Wolf and Hollowhenge Spirit are well worth considering, however.

Hmm.. Young WolfMTG Card: Young Wolf is very nice. But evasion is better than a two-time chump blocker. Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn is fun for his tapping to help get guys through, but I think that Hollowhenge SpiritMTG Card: Hollowhenge Spirit is the better choice. Combat tricks from the hand are better than the ones in plain sight, and he'll be less vulnerable to Tragic SlipMTG Card: Tragic Slips and chump blocking spirit tokens.

Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn is the obvious choice.

Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn is definitely slower. However, the potential for dodging a blocker for several turns is appealing to me. There's enough deathtouch and first strike in these sets to make our Kessig CagebreakersMTG Card: Kessig Cagebreakers a sad puppy. I won't complain if it eats up an opponent's removal.

Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn is my choice as well, but I would also like to say that Young WolfMTG Card: Young Wolf is VERY good. If we can pick up young wolf later on I think it would serve us very well.

Only one vote that's not for Niblis of the UrnMTG Card: Niblis of the Urn, moving on.
