This version got shafted out of haste, first strike, and vigilance. And its in red. This creature does not need nor want morph... Why would I want my akroma to die to shock or runeclaw bear?

Way to drop the ball on this version, its rated way less for a good reason.

While definitely very good, I find it funny that even with Akroma's Memorial, She falls to Plummet :-P

Many of the cards in Time Spiral Block were throwbacks to at least one previously printed card. Planar Chaos featured many such homages "color-shifted" to show alternate timelines for some classic Magic stories or to demonstrate variants on the color pie (the distribution of abilities and effects which spells can and can't do.)

This card is represents an Akroma, Angel of Wrath from a timeline where Ixidor, Reality Scultor is a vicious dark wizard who creates an Akroma bent on destroying the world!

She is a good card but isn't really the best designed honestly. Morph doesn't make much sense on this card to me, especially considering that she can't be countered. The biggest problem though is the lack of first strike, because no matter how much you pump her up she will still die in combat to many 6+ power fliers.

Considering that she carries the name Akroma I was expecting a little more, but hey versus the right deck she can be extremely punishing. She is the only creature that can't be countered, has protection from blue, and has flying all in one. This is a strange card to rate because she does have a lot going on, but honestly I feel it isn't enough. First strike was the way to go instead of morph, but even haste or vigilance at the very least would have made her a lot more epic. I still like her so much that I bought a foil one which resides in my 140 card 5 color deck, and her foil wasn't exactly cheap.

4.5/5
