This should cost at LEAST {G}{G}.

Powercreep? Nope, he still doesn't do much. There is no competitive decks that Skylasher helps to stop. If it had been GG with the protection from both blue and black, then it would have seen play.

Blue gets color hate: "OMG POWER CREEP STRICTLY BETTER THAN GRIZZLY BEARS" I don't think anyone freaked out this much over Kor Firewalker. Red hate isn't powercreep?

There is 39 1G 2/2s that are definitely better than Grizzly bears. Not all of them are strictly better but, then, neither is this this guy. Pro blue can hurt you as well. Either way, they have been printing strictly better bears since Wild Mongrel and I'd personally claim the dog as being better than a narrow hate card.

I liked the leak that said this was a spider. Still plays well with Swarmyard. Great sideboard material in Modern and Legacy against Delver. Don't know if he'll see standard play though. Depends on what ends up in M14.

I dub thee "Akroma's Grizzly Bear". How many abilities can you fit on a 2 mana 2/2 anyway? Especially one that looks like a toothy version of a woman's... uh... never mind.

What is powercreep? Well this is the perfect example of it. We have an environment where Delver of Secrets is barely being run and they make this monstrosity. I understand him being a sup'ed up Grizzly Bears But at least make him cost GreenGreen the fact that he costs 1Green is absurd. Then lets give him 4 abilities that basically hates Blue. Can't be countered might as well say F.U. Blue, Reach, Flash, and protection from Blue. Wow.

I had this thing sprung on me and it was annoying. The fact that this thing blocks your 3/6 flier all day long and doesn't receive a scratch is ridiculous. Oh and for every green player who whines about Green not getting good creatures, look no more. This thing is hideous.

My anger and rage against playing blue was so great, it manifested into this card. Even the artwork is to my liking. "Try flying around this spear through your heart you piece of !@#$". Deliciously perfect.

Feels like the second coming of Ancient Spider.

Because blue is terrified of spider crab Bulbasaurs.
