Spiteful trickster-

Creature - Devil

When spiteful trickster dies, you get a 1/1 red devil token and lose 1 life.

1/1

so....

strickly worse than DT in every way?

not even a GOBLIN?

also, it already has Mogg War Marshal as a kind of a double version.

My first complaint is a flavor one, I think it should make another Devil not a Demon.

My second is, is this too good? I mean, Mogg War Marshal is a card, but it's oftentimes just Dragon Fodder split over two turns. The "lose 1 life" clause makes it somewhat reasonable, but maybe?

I'm personally torn because I want to see this card getting printed. But I think it might be too good.

Giving both the token and original creature haste would probably make it interesting.

it still just sounds like a shitty version.

doesn't it even get a keyword for that paid life? I mean, Blisterpod has the sac-y thing and DT has flapping. haste? first strike? nothing AND lose a life? okay.

JWiley129 changed At your request.

Everyone: red isn't a color to get creatures like this. You gotta make it worse than the others because its breaking the pie just a bit

I don't think the loss of 1 health is necessary but I do think the flavor needs to be fixed a little bit. Maybe a shaman turning into an elemental or a warrior becoming a spirit.

This is a innistrad themed one. I believe if anywhere would have a card such as this, it would be there. I considered making it just undying but that didn't seem fun enough
