@aegisaglow: What does that say about the color pie?

Oh, if only you were legendary. You would be such a great commander.

@aegisaglow: Akroma, Angel of Wrath had trample; in fact, she had everything but lifelink, which didn't exist at the time.

I'm gonna get this guy more than once in draft, I just know it. I also know I'm not going to be able to resist myself and he will be what I build the deck around.

I'd love to give my Sphinx of the Steel Wind trample for only 7 mana. Sucks that protection stops me, though.

There are Mythics that are pushed beyond belief like Brimaz, King of Oreskos,
and then there are flavor-dripping Mythics that for some reason get the short end like this one.

This deserved to be so much more. Alone for the fact that it's a damn rainbow-powered Manticore.

It does have no protection from removal whatsoever, and - being an enchantment as well - is especially susceptile to it.
Unfortunately it didn't get haste as the red keyword either, so this might end up dead without having done anything.

Also, this would have been the ideal card to have a bestow cost equal to the casting cost.
Getting WhiteBlueBlackRedGreen is one hell of a task. This isn't just something you throw in a deck and cast on turn five.
And being able to cast it for bestow that easily would have made up for the aforementioned fact with removal, since your opponent would at least have to deal twice with a threat when he doesn't have anything against enchantments.

You know, like autoca... (see all)

I like it when Wizards puts in cards for fun. A five-color fatty in a block that has nothing to do with WUBRG? Why the hell not.

If he was a 5/5 it would fit much better.

Also combos with Death-Mask Duplicant.

Flying =

First strike =

Vigilance =

Trample =

Lifelink =

I feel like just giving it a keyword from each color was kind of a cop out to making this feel like a 5-colored card. Oh well.

I feel like it should have 1 ability that is mainly seen in each of its colors, for example,

Vigilance, Flying, Intimidate, Haste, and Trample
