Truly blown away by this reprint. 5 stars flavorwise but a little less for usability.

@Shadowcaster3975: As noted on the other releases, this is actually a reference to the Battle of Chi Bi (or at least, the way it's told in Romance of the Three Kingdoms). Zhou Yu's supply lines had run into difficulties, resulting in a shortage of arrows for the Shu/Wu armies. As a result, Lu Su and Zhuge Liang came up with the stratagem of tricking Wei forces into thinking barges of Wu reinforcements had shown up--"reinforcements" that were actually straw dummies that acted as sponges for the arrow fusillades they attracted. Arrow shortage solved.

Man, I keep seeing cards that I'd never expected to be reprinted in these decks.

Not a bad card, though..

I used to be a planeswalker like you, until I took 100,000 arrows in the knee.

I can honestly say I never expected to see this reprinted. It could be amazing in combination with stuff like Tamiyo, but we will have to wait and see.

This is probably one of the greatest Magic Cards or Military Tactics you will ever lay your eyes on x3

Kinda makes me think stuff like 'radar takes all the fun out of war :P '


Can you imagine decades later Ol' Man Shu and Ol' Man Wei? XD

"I still got 1,000 of your arrows, if you want 'em back ^_^ "

"Ya say ya did WHAT back in the war?!! WHY, YOU!!! >:o "



....now I'm imagining two barmy old Chinese codgers beating the living hell out of each other at the shuffleboard court and the nurses just have no fiking clue how to deal with them!!!! XD
