This ought to be a two-for-one if you play it right. Either that, or it's a really good evasive creature. In reality, however, a 1/1 with deathtouch still isn't going to be winning you many games. There's a reason WotC felt comfortable printing a 1/1 with deathtouch for B and then, in this set, a 1/1 for G with deathtouch. Still, it's good in a Limited format that has very little removal.

To much of a limited beast to be anything less than 3/5 in my opinion. I've held off a monsterous Hundred-Handed One bestowed with a Hopeful Eidolon. With 3 of these.

The bestow cost is overcosted by 3.
Had this been a mythic, it's bestow cost would have been B and it's power would have been 2.

Wow. The Bestow costs are really high in general, but this is just ridiculous.

Bestowing this will almost always result in a 2-4-1. Just watch out for first strike.

It's a shame Bestow has been relegated to the "cool but expensive" pile in its entirety. It'll never see constructed play, but limited should, at the very least, be interesting.

Not spectacular, but in a good B/W enchantment deck, it can be very useful. 2 mana for a creature and another enchantment to fuel Ethereal Armor and Sphere of Safety is already good. The bestow is pure gravy, because you have to use more than one removal spell to kill him, one to kill the thing he's on, and another to kill him. Apart from enchantment decks, though, he's only worth playing if you're desperately in need of deathtouch.

Excellent card that basically gives you TWO deathouch creatures. It's a little high, but overall a decent card. As for the people complaining about this not being a one drop, we already have Pharika's Chosen
