Balthor Says "Magic 2012 delivers!!!!"

A 5/4 Deathtouch Zombie for 2BBB? That's a pretty good deal!!

A recurring targetted Dread effect from your graveyard tacked on for free.... That's just flabbered my ghast!!!

  1. The only thing I don't like about this card is the dread effect is slightly weaker, it has to be able to target creatures to kill them. But I had to think long and hard to find any criticism. As long as you have discard outlet, this card is a black Soul Snare that recurs!

  2. Yes, there's drawbacks: Pro-Black, Shroud and you have to take the damage not to mention that it's a required trigger, not a may trigger. Occasionally you'll want to draw something else.

    When you're playing out Mesmeric Orb, there's some value there, Orb + Monolith tricks abound.

    And he just rocks the Zombie flavour!

  3. Hells yes, this guy rocks! Flavor-wise, it's just badass that WotC gave it an Egyptian Mummy concept. But I already have plans to put this into my Damia deck as a Buried Alive target along with Genesis and whatever else I need.

    Art is cash, too; let's hope it's a wallpaper of the week sometime soon.
