Fun card without a doubt. Combine with Aether Membrane for impressive red delay. Forcing combat is a strong effect, and no tap symbol allowing multiple force even better. Although in most cases you will need board leverage to really benefit from this card's effect. And setting up board leverage with red doesnt really fit into red's scheme of aggression. Nor does playing walls when using red.
Red is always on a clock... its removal, recurrsion, and crafty tricks are vastly inferior to the other colors. Now if you play walls with red... are you really benefiting your deck, or your opponents?
3.5/5

@Stray_Dog: I've made the defender deck the set wants you to (or at least one version of it) on MTGO. Apart from this, it also runs Vent Sentinel, Perimeter Captain, Wall of Omens and Stalwart Shield-Bearers.
Lust for War is the quasi-removal of choice since it bolts the opponent every turn while running the creature into my walls for 2 x (# of Perimeter Captains) x (# of defenders) lifegain or, more often, makes them use their own removal on their side of the board. Backups are Flame Slash and Journey to Nowhere.
Wincons are Vent Sentinel and Warmonger's Chariot. For good measure I've got a Basilisk Collar in there too. Kind of hilarious seeing the defender deck suddenly pull out 7 flying lifelink to the dome, and the collar helps the 2 get through off anything else if I don't have a Nimbus out.
I ... (see all)

Awesome synergy potential with Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs.
