Personal Sanctuary would prevent the damage, but would not stop the demon from tapping itself, which would make him useless unless you had something to keep untapping him, and that untapping could probably be put to use on better things. Best to keep this guy somewhere close by Increasing Devotion.

I like this guy. I would like it even more if they had Demons of the other 6 deadly sins as well. But then again crazy parents might have a hissy fit if MTG printed Archdemon of Lust.

You could always give him lifelink until you get more humans on the board. Personal Sanctuary works nicely, too.

Tainted Strike is also a thing. A cute casual thing, but a thing nonetheless.

Give it Lifelink. then you never have a worry. and a thousand-year elixir. then it merely has another way to untap for {1}

i kind of like the idea of transforming this guy, swinging for 9, then casting switcheroo. (of course only if they control no humans)

This is a big and powerful beater. It has a lot of opportunity as a 1-of in W/B Tokens with Sorin 2.0 and Gather the Townsfolk. While I do agree that it's not prerelease-promo material, it's definitely better than it's current 2.5/5 rating

I'm so sick of retarded, Timmy cards.
I'm also sick of the childish straw man fallacy of pretending that the average Johnny's or Spike's (or even the non-retarded Timmy's) objection boils down to "Dies to removal!" It's NOT a problem that a creature dies to removal--it IS a problem if that creature turns removal spells into massive card/tempo advantage--like this card does (ditto for the other cards I've linked to that butt-hurt fanbois get their panties in a bunch about hearing criticism of).
About the only thing I like these cards for are Fling decks.
If anyone has a counterargument to what I've said, please actually address the nuance of my point and don't just post pointless crap like "Ha! Well even Progenitus dies to Geth's Verdict, so there!"... (see all)
