Ajani Vengeant was the promo card for the Shards pre-release as well as the regular set release. There were so many more copies of him floating around than if WoTC went with two different promos like Malfegor/Obelisk of Alara, Dragon Broodmother/Knight of New Alara, Vampire Nocturnus/Ant Queen, etc. They "double-dipped" on the promo card.

Sounds fine to me. You'd think they would have noticed by now that printing highly playable cards at "mythic" was bad. Or "mytics" in general. It took them, what, a whole zero sets to not screw up "only printing bad timmy cards"?

Why not? Goblin Chieftan, which is rare, has the same CC but gives all other gobbos +1/+1 and haste. Having haste and battle cry while giving other gobbos battle cry seems like an acceptable step up for a mythic, though it will probably end up like Warren Instigator: overhyped and coming up short.

Doubt it's real. The "cry" in Battle cry isn't capitalized on Hero of Bladehold but it is here. I don't think Goblins needs Piledrivers 5-8 anyway. __________________ Most References in Massachusetts (Moving pays off I guess.)My Blog: http://wings0298.blogspot.com/ Support my friend's store: http://www.tabletoparena.com

Infect is already strong enough without a 1cc infect (beyond what it's got already). At best you'd get G for 1/1 with some drawback, B for 1/1 with a huge drawback, or 1 for 0/1 anyway.

Hope you like one with no power because that's probably what they will print if they do so.

I think it would be too powerful considering the format. A 4/4 on turn 3 possibly? Yeah I realize you can achieve this with Chromesteed too, but the pony can shrink. This guy has no drawbacks, and isn't a rare(which the other 4/4's for 4 are. 1 also being mythic). At 4 mana for the p/t he has and the ability to shut down an infect ground force he is rightly costed @ 5. I think his power would be too great in the uncommon slot as a 4cc 4/4 without some sort of drawback.

It will still be good since four power/toughness seems to come at a premium in this format. __________________ Most References in Massachusetts (Moving pays off I guess.)Support my friend's store: http://www.tabletoparena.com

Oh, I agree 100%. It's a solid card in any deck that supports green. 4 power is a luxory you don't often have in this format, let alone 4 toughness to back it up. Add in the fact that it can't be "infected", you got a winner.
