Ehm... the card is nice in a morph deck, I'm considering it.

Morph was likely inspired by Illusionary Mask that was printed in alpha (1993), which predates Yu-Gi-Oh by 6 years. It may be the case that Yu-Gi-Oh caused wizards to reconsider the mechanic, but MTG did it first as far as I know.

@Teroth:
Onslaught -- 2002
YuGiOh -- 1999
Morph was introduced *after* yugioh.

Yu-gi-oh!, aside from not being nearly as fun as magic, doesn't have much in common with magic other than that its a card game. Yeah it has monsters and spell cards and yada yada but it's not nearly as sophisticated... as for pokemon... good lord where do I begin. Point is, theres only so much originality a card game can have and as long as its fun, who cares right? The flavor text could just be refering to the nature of morph, has that thought come to mind yet?
EDIT: I see some Yu-gi-oh! fans have been voting my comment down eh. :P

The flavor text for this card is obviously a response to all of the negative feedback and Yu-gi-oh! comparisons that the morph mechanic received.

Wasn't this card printed before yugio existed?

Clearly it is a closer resemblance to Pokemon. Vanilla 2/2 evolves into... Exalted Angel! (cue adorable little triumphant music)

umm, I don't care about whether this card has anything to do with Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokemon or Digimon or Duel Masters or whatever-
MUCH more importantly: Breaks Werewolves???? :O

One of Obama's favorite magic cards.

It was indeed printed before Yu-Gi-Oh even existed, kinda makes you wonder how anybody can claim that the flavor text is an obvious refference to "all of the negative feedback and Yu-gi-oh! comparisons that the morph mechanic received".
- Meh, I guess some people just likes making stuff up.
