Wolfbitten or reckless waif

Deck Help forum

I'm trying to decide between Wolfbitten Captive  Flip and Reckless Waif  Flip in my werewolf deck The Moon is up I've heard arguments for both and cannot decide atm i've gone to running a mix of both but i feel it should probably be 1 or the other.

While I'd say Reckless Waif  Flip would generally be better, since your deck is primarily green I'd go with Wolfbitten Captive  Flip , especially since you're not running a playset of Copperline Gorge . Captive can also be more relevant later in the game when you generally have more mana open.

Now assuming i was running a full set of Copperline Gorge would you still say captive? he does have better late game presence i agree. only benefit i'd see to reckless waif is that it can kill/block Mirran Crusader and my only other way to deal with it is with having a burn spell up before my opponent buffs him up or with Kruin Outlaw  Flip .

Hmm. I guess it depends on how common Crusader is in your local meta, then.

I always say Wolfbitten Captive  Flip hands down since the Reckless Waif  Flip is killed by so many things. I would use Young Wolf before Reckless Waif  Flip since you want to be aggressive but many ppl will not attack with waif if he is a 1/1 and can b blocked by another 1/1. Also He cannot kill a Mirran Crusader Unless you somehow give him more toughness since the crusader has double strike and will kill him before he does anything.

Go for the Wolfbitten Captive  Flip . Reckless Waif  Flip is a fun card if you play it within the first three turns of the game, however Wolfbitten Captive  Flip rewards you later in the game such as turns 5-8, he becomes a Titan hunter and he is so effective, for the one mana investment you get a creature that is 1. Expendable 2. Versatile 3. progressively threatening as the game goes on. I would recommend 4x Wolfbitten Captive  Flip 3x Young Wolf and 2x Reckless Waif  Flip s as your low cost creature package

I use a more aggro approach for werewolves and use 4 of each. I also use card:Full Moon's Rise.

What's fun about wolf bitten is his pumps won't count towards spells cast so turn 1 him turn 2 pump him then he flips turn after that lay a mayor next turn pump and mayor flips. Wolf bitten > reckless
