Brilliant card, Brilliant flavor. one of my favourite cards they have ever printed, green so you can get lotsa lands into play early.

Ive won many games from killing people with their own creatures.

The only problem with this card is its CMC.
And, like, there are MANY ways to cheat it in,
MANY ways to mana accel.
And, otherwise, it's just so beautiful.
It's exactly what B/G is about, IMO.

The "gaining control of your opponent's creatures" ability isn't being used here in the old fashion blue way of taking someone else's creatures. You have to look at with more of a imaginative view pov.

By removing a creature from the game, the Sisters are destorying it (most likely by turning the creature to stone). Then they use their powers to bring the creature back from its "death" and under their control. So in other words, its not a blue-creature-stealing ability at all, but rather a black-necromancy ability o_o. That's just how I see it.

And they rule as a General in EDH, speaking from experience. 3 hits and your opponent loses, are you kidding me? I play Golgari so getting lands onto the game and using my graveyard is no problem. You should see my non-black-using opponent's faces when I play the Sisters on turn 6-7 and have Dragon Shadow sitting in my graveyard.

I am considering banning this from my EDH playgroup because it's so overpowered, and I own the deck. It's so overpowered against all matchups, I love it and hate it at the same time!

If you use this in edh to exile a general, then at what point would you be able to put it into play under your control? obviously not if they played it again, but if it was still in the command zone, would you be able to use the third ability? I think that as long as it wasn't played since it was removed by 'sisters it would be steal-able, but i could be wrong. any thoughts?

sad to see this card is not getting more attention, but happily thats better for me, anyone familliar with dredge knows that most people run elesh norn, the grand cenobite, unfortunately for them this card in my dredge deck will force thier elesh to block and then i will exile it, next turn i will take thier elesh norn and that my friends is game over 5/5 for the only elesh norn counter in dredge

So, 2BBGG, tap: Gain control of target creature that can block.. Well, ok, maybe not exactly.
