Am I wrong, or is this actually okay... at least as a sideboard against Aggro...

Life gain, and blocks just about anything they throw at you!

I just laughed.

This card is funny in itself.

I wonder why it has no flavour text though, there's so much white space.

Sheep Voltron totally needs to be a thing.

This thing is in love with Archangel of Thune and Doran, the Siege Tower . Sadly, it doesn't fit into my White Enchantments deck, or I would play this all day long.

I will play this in my oloro EDH deck. You can never get too many life ticks :)

I'll be getting major bonus points for getting my GF a foil one of these for her Trostani, Selesnya's Voice EDH deck.

That's a fake image, I'm calling it. Wizards has to put flavor text on a card with that much space, even if it's the worst text ever put on a card.

It is a translated mockup

If you prefer....

Well, I'm glad we know that now. Is there a non-translated version so I can put the flavor text into Google Translate?

It's real, it's on Mythic Spoiler.

-Logician says... #13

Mythic Spoiler isn't the End-all-be-all. Just saying. I've seen an instance where Mythic Spoiler posts something and then takes it back later.

This is probably legit though.

I like that there is a sheep blocker. it's hilarious. I hope it is real.

Goatnapper is powerless in the eyes of the gods.

Also, Day of Judgment has a lot of whitespace.

So does Murder .

So does Doom Blade . That's kind of the point of these old, iconic effects. Adding flavor text to Day of Judgement?!?!?!! would only draw attention from the big damn explosion and the effect. Does Cancel need flavor text when it's already got a dude literally crushing a spell with his bare hand and the effect right there in the center of the box?

*Day of Judgment

Stupid dumb shitty English language and your unwritten E's goddamn

April 14, 2014 3:29 p.m.

All Im saying is, it doesn't need flavor text, whitespace is acceptable.

woah this is awesome!!!

Well it is an Enchantment too so take that into account, cheap enchantment thats also a good blocker against aggro decks

Is no one else noticing how beautiful this art is?

April 14, 2014 4:17 p.m.

Rayenous says... #24

T1 - Forest , and Elvish Mystic
T2 - Plains , and Star-Woolen Sheep

"Come at me with your, Fleecemane Lion , or your Rakdos Cackler ... I'm ready for you."

T3: Plains and Sunbond ... *giggle.


Really... this thing isn't phased by, Bile Blight , Anger of the Gods , or most other damaging or -X/-X removal that's being used in standard... and blocks most relevant non-evasive creatures... while gaining you life while it remains.

I personally dislike Terese Nielsen's work.

Its a dude carrying a constellation-sheep. How can you not like the art?

April 14, 2014 4:28 p.m.

Rayenous says... #27

I could see there being better option for artwork... but this one will be nice as Foil.

April 14, 2014 4:29 p.m.

I might actually use it haha, I always like cheap blockers

April 14, 2014 4:33 p.m.

Rayenous says... #29

...This thing... Yoked Ox ... Angelic Wall ... Spear of Heliod (to keep them above Mizzium Mortars )...

Then splash B and U for Phenax, God of Deception .

Farming and Milling. :)

Literally the first thing I thought of when I saw this card was "SHHEEEEEPPPPPPP!!!!"

What's nice is that this is a direct upgrade over Yoked Ox .

This is going straight into my friend's "Gideon, the Shepherd" deck. Also, in regards to the art, different people have different tastes. My personal favorite artist, far and away, is Raymond Swanland, and that art is about as far away from this as you can get.
