Much more flavorful than Assault Griffin.
Since I don't like white First Strike, I would have preferred a reprint of Makindi Griffin or a white Sky Ruin Drake.

If the power and toughness were swapped, its rating would probably rise by about half a star. Not much more though.

Fun Fact: I used to be the kind of guy that would never play Leonin Skyhunter. Leonin used to be my least favorite part of Mirrodin block, hands down. I just thought they sucked. I'm very subjective in my card evaluations, and if it doesn't 'feel' right, or the card's art looks dumb, I just plain don't like it.
Then I watched the new series premier of Thundercats. Leonin are BADASS o.O
But for Cloud Crusader, this guy is miles better than a Wind Drake. What most of the Mythic Rare Haters don't appreciate is that Commons are for Limited, which is actually quite fun and the cards are neither under nor over powered, most of the time, for that format. I think Magic could be improved if All Mythic Rares were banned from Limited. Maybe that format could gain more popularity that way?
I don't think Mythic Rares are 'only for the Elite who can afford them', because single copies are not USUALLY horrendously difficult to get...and honestly, if you want a playset of a Mythic Rare, if it's n... (see all)
