Stunning art. Other wise I don't get why this is good...

Art looks nice, but I still really don't see how this is useful at all. You play Jackal PupElite Vanguard. Go ahead and attack. Even any old measly 1/1 will still do the trick. Or I Lightning Bolt or Flame Slash the poor little Pup. I just took out your creature and still did the full damage of the spell to you.

Ugh, this card's art makes it look like the pup is missing legs, mainly cuz the front-left leg is so far back. Also because the front right leg, the most visible one, has its knee bending in the WRONG DIRECTION.
Seems like a two-legged creature, like a hairy velociraptor, or something at first glance. And second and third.

This hard is terrible. Why is everyone so randy for it? There are countless other 1 drops for red that are much better, that DON'T involve hurting yourself so much.

Strictly less adorable than the original art. (Not to say that this art is worse, it's just different)

The old art was cute, but this art is much more evocative of how vicious this little fella is =D

Just watch out for those Shivan Meteors...a very good aggro card though.

so if i put pariah and Indestructibility both on the jackal pup, then the next time the pup takes damage it starts a non-breakable infinite damage loop, thereby drawing the game right? The pup takes damage, which then deals damage to me that is redirected back to the pup, which causes the pup to deal 2 more damage to me, which is also redirected back to itself, and so on. If the pup is indestructible, the only way to break the loop would be to have an exile spell for the pup, or something to destroy either pariah or indestructibility.

I actually thought up a combo using this, have 4 fire servants, 1 jackal pup and 4 furnace of raths on the battlefield then suspend a shivan meteor, before the Shivan Meteor resolves cast donate giving the opponent your jackal pup, when the Shivan Meteor resolves target the jackal pup dealing 53,248 damage and killing your opponent

This legitimately looks exactly like my dog.
Now I'm scared. What if someone shocks him and I die? I can't take two and survive!
