Thraximundar (Alara Reborn) - Community - Gatherer

There are no comments yet for this card.

Something I just realized: Every Shard except Grixis got a Legendary tricolor iconic creature (Jenara, Asura of War, Sharuum the Hegemon, Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund, and Uril, the Miststalker). Grixis lacks a legendary tricolor Demon. Thraximundar is big and forces players to sacrifice creatures. Now what are two properties common to Demons? I'm starting to suspect Thrax here wasn't designed as a Zombie Assassin. And quite frankly that makes me feel his current typing is redundant with Sedris around.

I think Thrax should have traded places with Malfegor, who if I recall was the closest thing Grixis had to a ruler before his demise, meaning Mal should have been Blue

while Thrax would have worked fine as a Black

. Another "could have been" scenario brought to you by Grixis' former demon-dragon overlord.

Because i'll let thraxi lead my deck into battle wayy before sedris or malfegor.

We can either discard our and with a demon, or ride motorcycles and eat small children with a zombie assassin.

I for one choose the latter! And I REALLY hope this guy is in the grixis commander precon. Assuming they do the dragons again his only real competition for the slot is mishra and sedris. REALLY hoping its him, he seems to support what the rest of the deck wants to do better than sedris (you most likely won't have many creatures to use sedris's ability with) and I don't think they'd use mishra? One can ony hope its him. I'll buy that precon in a heartbeat if it is.

Also i feel like he fits in a grixis deck way better than a rakdos deck, personally. Iunno.
