Its a mini Goblin Piledriver that doesn't care about its allies species. Very fun.

In addition to the epic flavor text, this cheap beater is probably my favorite Akroan creature from the set. My only gripe is that it enters a standard environment that lacks cheap token generators. Lingering Souls, Gather the Townsfolk, and Krenko's Command all rotate out as soon as these guys rotate in, and the best replacements are five- and six-mana permanents like Assemble the Legion and Elspeth, Sun's Champion. I'd love to build an aggro deck with these guys as the (pun totally intended) tip of the spear, but I don't think it'll happen.

Oooh, I love this hoplite creature! They capture the flavour of hoplites much better than the other two in this set, as it actually tries to capture the flavour of phalanx formation fighting. So now I can gleefully exclaim "Spears down, men!".

Pride is only a flaw when it's undeserved.

Based on the Flavor text the bonus should be negated if they encounter another Akroan unit, lol
3/5 Stars
