@ZEvilMustache:
I can a.s.sure you (as my playgroup is casual enough) that this Serra Angel in disguise can rule. :-) But the more often it deeply impresses the table, the more often it is taken care of in time. Anyway the strength lies also in the kithkin archetype in general in casual matches (a "conservative" tribal weenie built, where this guy, Kinsbaile Borderguard or Thoughtweft Trio fill the end of the manacurve, not the tech with Spectral Procession and Cloudgoat Ranger which made kithkins famous in tournament play). Without any global sweepers in sight you are really in trouble...

Limited bomb.
In the right draft deck, this was a Serra Angel for three. Only downside was that it was less resistant to removal as a consequence of having 2 toughness at inopportune moments. Still, for three mana, that's hardly much of a drawback.

I hesitate to call this a limited bomb, but I've seen it really take people apart. I wish I had a casual enough play group to use this card in constructed formats. Pauper? Paradox Haze?

Very cool. The fact that you dont have to reveal it lets you know what's coming up without your enemies knowing it, in long games that can be help full. But i would much rather just take the 4/4 flyer than a little knoledge

Waaaa! Val Mayerik? Seriously? The last card he draw was Fires of Yavimaya in Invasion... A lot time ago!
Nice limited card, maybe even constructed in a casual Kinship deck...
3/5

Very good as a curve top in an pauper white weenie deck

Why are all the "kithkin" people from this block so damn ugly?
