What awesome artwork, worthy of the title of Bolas hands down from the art to the card itself, to the flavor text... This card gets oohhhhs and ahhhhs as well as style points everytime it is played in my shop... i usually wait until turn 7 so i can countersquall any counter attempt and take life...

I think this is one of the most elegantly designed cards I've seen in quite some time. A perfect mashup of the three colors' abilites, all rounded up in a nice and very much playable package. Two thumbs up!

"Hey can I borrow that for a moment? Thanks...

Whoops - I think I broke it. My bad."

Amazing art, amazing flavor and one of the best cards that can completely screw up your opponent's board advantage. It's Mind Control with Act of Treason and a little bit of Terminate mixed in.

Poor Battlegrace Angel, the card where she's depicted as a slave is better than her actual card.

Off the top of my head, my favorite art of the whole game.
Aside from the awe, the wonder and the beauty, it shows that Bolas indeed has excellent taste in slaves.
An iconic and powerful card from an awesome set, 5/5

I think this is Battlegrace Angel? Anyone else think so?

This art is awesome. It actually inspires awe in me.

I wish that this name had been given to a creature, but I still love the card. Name, art, mechanic, and flavor text are all awesome and converge beautifully. The mechanic is a perfect idea; the combination of two fairly-oft-used mechanics (temporary theft and temporary putting a creature into play) combine to form something that also incorporates removal. Very elegant. And to top it off, it's an excellent use of gold hybrid.

Awesome! Grab your opponent's biggest creature and swing with it, it dies when blocked(destroying more creatures) or it deals life damage than it's sacrificed. All of this for 5! Where mono-color would have been 6.

Who wants to be like good ol' Bloas? Bitter, old, cranky, but destructive? Then look no further, 'cause here's "Slave of Bolas!"
