regen on a 5/2 is awesome it's just a shame it costs RRR to do.

I remember when this guy was hot stuff. People knew Homelands sucked from the beginning, but it had a few stars, mainly the legends. Eron's star has faded since the 90's, but he was a superstar back then.

@Intothevoid- you mean 2R? You abbreviate mana by the color not the basic land.
However, I believe that it's still somewhat balanced, though expensive creatures with expensive regeneration are fairly undesirable because in the turn you play them, they're just as vulnerable as any other creature, since you tapped out to play them. So the haste is kind of pointless- trade it for trample and you've got a perfect card.

You use the regen the next turn. You drop this guy when the opponent is already open. FOOLS!

Cards like this are difficult to rate. Players are typically expected to pay more for off-color effects, so the fact that it costs so much to regenerate this guy shouldn't be surprising. If red could regenerate as well as green, regeneration wouldn't be considered a green ability, now would it? On the other hand, red players usually take into account the fact that their creatures will die quickly (with the exception of dragons), and so regeneration may not be worth the effort, hence the difficulty in rating this card. I'd say the value of Eron is contingent on how relevant regeneration is to your strategy.

If you enchant a viashino warrior with the brute you get the same thing AND laughed at.

Doesn't this guy looks like Axl Rose from Guns & Roses?

The haste and RRR regeneration are kind of mutually exclusive. You'd need 8 mana to play Eron, attack then regenerate. All too often I'd play Eron then *wait* till next turn, when I could afford to regen. Still a good card, though.

Hovercraft, Eron doesn't have Trample, that's why...

@Hovercraft
And he costs 5... in a Red Deck you want people to be dead by that point...
