If there's one reason why I like her so much, it's to prevent any kind of 'flash into play to wreck your board' shenanigans that can ruin your day, and it forces defending players to waste their fogs early and not leaving you wide open to attack. Her berserk ability is pretty good too for picking off particular threats when everyone's in a stalemate.

For those going 'but white/red love combat tricks themselves!', think of it this way; your opponent is inevitably going to want to get rid of her so they can do their own tricks, and in the mean time, you're forcing them to play by your rules and manipulating them in quite a few ways.

I like her abilities,you just have to build around them. Using creature abilities, enchantments, seals, and stuff like that.

Terese Nielsen is so unique.

If I were to list my top 10 favorite cards based on art alone... she would own half the spots, at least.

Really hoses her colour combination, not sure what's going on here. Also totally looks like Jean Grey. So there's that.

I wouldn't call her abilities bad at all. There are a ton of R/W cards that use abilities during combat. Things like Sunforger, Isochron Scepter, Rise of the Hobgoblins' activated ability, Deathless Angel's ability, Militia's Pride, Knight-Captain of Eos, and the new Soul Snare works too. Sure, no condemn or master of warcraft, but there's still a lot of options.

And if built around her, your deck won't suffer and your opponent's will, since they probably wouldn't have built around her.

Not a good ability for WR, the color that thrives with an abundance of combat tricks.

A shame, because this card has beautiful art.
