@A3Kitsune: Yes, providing your quirky player with more fuel for the humiliating-to-lose-to Horse deck!

A sub-par card, but I might be biased, since a bad one kicked me in the head.

The most sadly hilarious thing about this card is that the flavor is so completely wrong.

The only things that actually distinguish a tarpan as a tarpan are the fact that it was gray with a black mane and tail and that it was never domesticated.

So, the art is entirely incorrect and the flavor text is way off-base too. It's kind of surprising because I would think that whoever had enough niche equestrian knowledge to even come up with the idea of a tarpan card would also have known that a tarpan is just a horse species which was never domesticated.

I guess the mechanic represents you eating it?

Whenever there are bad horse cards to be illustrated, Margaret Organ-Kean will be there...

Infinite combo with Enduring Renewal, Tangleroot, and anything that sends it to your graveyard, such as Engineered Plague set to Horse. (Or a re-usable sacrifice outlet, like Dimir House Guard).

Not a bad 1 drop. Makes a decent chump blocker, and I'm sure if someone really tried, it's ability could be easily abused in one way or another.

I like to think of the lifegain as a planeswalker cutting the tarpan open and sheltering inside it for warmth.
