He's going to be so mad when Goblin Fireslinger steals his kill.

this guy is absolutely ridiculous with Ninjas. if they choose not to block the master, then their life goes to one, at which point you can ninjutsu in a creature before combat damage is assigned, letting the final point be dealt by the already unblocked ninja.

@sonorhC Actually, it will.
"An ability that triggers when something "attacks and isn't blocked" triggers in the declare blockers step after blockers are declared if (1) that creature is attacking and (2) no creatures are declared to block it. It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step."
The important part there is "It will trigger even if that creature was put onto the battlefield attacking rather than having been declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step."
Kaalia will get around the restriction, as you never actually have to attack with him, but the ability will STILL TRIGGER, resulting in a kill if neither of them are blocked.

Excellent design. From the cruel fact that he can't kill on his own, to the challenges of him only being able to attack alone, to the damned if you do, damned if you don't blocking situation, he's the kind of fun card that makes you go "it does WHAT!?!" which I feel is always a good sign in a card.

Lyzolda, the Blood Witch is one of my favorite cards from the Ravnica block. When I saw this card, I was overjoyed. The synergy with Lyzolda is great. So what Master of Cruelties is attacking alone? You can sacrifice the rest of your creatures to make way for him. What do you do when he has gotten through and your opponent is at 1? Sacrifice him to Lyzolda's effect and win.

By far the funniest thing to happen to me at the prerelease was getting one of these off a Breaking // Entering.
