@Dracon.ao: Horsemanship is much stronger now than it ever was in its heyday. Take a Horsemanship card to any setting where they are allowed, and they're pretty much unblockable, because no-one will ever be expecting them. The only problem, though, and perhaps part of the reason they're so rarely used, is the insane price of Portal: Three Kingdoms card, due to the set's very limited print run.
And Flanking is still as strong as ever.

Yes, a vanilla 2/2 for three mana. It's rare, too.
Finally green gets the powercreep it deserves! Take that, poopyhead blue mages!

Possibly the Wizards designers had Taoism confused with Tae Kwon Do (which does offer one training in how to kick a horseback rider in the face, in the form of jump-front-kicks).

Was nice enough in its block. With a few green insta-pumps it thoroughly fucked certain decks.
Now though...I guess if you have weird friends...

So...it can't be blocked by creatures no one ever plays? Good to know. Just get some Bears and be done with it.

Yet another card that has succumbed to age. Horsemanship was quite strong along with flanking in it's day, but those keywords have been aged out.
