@Tiggurix: You mean Ertai's Meddling. Ertai's Trickery is just a narrow nigh-useless counterspell against kicked cards.

Anyway, that's three cards in the entire game. Not THAT easy an answer...

The Great Sable Stag, a rare inhabitant of the forests of Dominaria, is a docile creature, majestic, and -- OH MY GOD, IT JUST LEAPT 10 FT IN THE AIR AND CLAMPED ITS JAWS AROUND THAT CLOUD OF FAERIES.

Stags have a huge presence in fantasy literature. Okay, huge is an over-statement, but they are rich with historical symbolism. Especially "Great Stags." Look this stuff up. It's actually pretty cool.

Soldiers are real, swords are real, bears are real, land is real. Better get rid of all those too! Stags are perfectly acceptable as fantasy creatures.

I love the flavor on this. I support green getting animals from the real world as creatures, perhaps animals with a dash of supernatural power.

Real does not equal boring. Sometimes, ordinary things with unexpected powers are the most exciting and fantastical of all. Excuse me if I don't want to be summoning 'fantasy' creatures that are completely random and look like Pokemon.

I can't stop looking at it and thinking "man that thing would make some epic jerky."

Furinic: "Can't be countered" means you can't use a counterspell (like Cancel or Soul Manipulation) to stop me from playing Great Sable Stag. You can still kill it once it's on the field, but you can't use a Blue or Black card (since it has protection from them). If you need more information on how abilities work, I would make a list of things you aren't sure about and ask them on the MTG forums, you'll have an answer in no time.

Its antlers are MUCH too wide to effectively navigate those woods.
