"Well, my time as a werewolf is over. Time to voluntarily go back in the cage."

Flavor errors like this really bug me, especially in a flavor-centric block

@Fert12334: "How does a guy in a cage manage to attack someone!?
Am I the only one who noticed this?"

My guess is this.. He transforms when you cast no spells, right? Maybe Wizards was hinting that the most effective way to use him is to DO NOTHING or, metaphorically speaking, just sit there in a cage. How memorable is a 1/1 to your opp right? And then, when the time is right, he flips, you attack, catching your opp off guard and pump for 6 damage! Idk, just a theory :)

Btw, I love the Mad Mardigan reference!! lol

He kinda reminds me of Mad Mardigan. Those old school fantasy movies were so much better than Harry Potter!

@ SetCollector and Superllama12

correct me if I'm wrong, but his ability reads "Wolfbitten Captive gets +2/+2," so if you flip him after the fact (with moonmist), his flip side wont get that pump because it is no longer a wolfbitten captive, its a Krallenhorde Killer. I don't think it's a bug online, it's a differently named side, so the pump doesn't apply. Notice his werewolf side's ability specifically says "Krallenhorde Killer gets +4/+4."

Am i right?

edit: Also, if the pump carried over to both sides, it would say "This creature gets +2/+2."

Watch out MTGO seem to be bugged so that that won't allow you to pump after it flips if you pump before the card has flipped in the same turn.

I play him as a 1 drop in a standard MGA deck, and I like this side of him much more than his werewolf side. I find he's actually considerably more flexible, and therefore more threatening than his counterpart. Maybe I'm crazy.

Underrated for sure.

Its kinda ehh, but there is only one other werewolf one drop (Reckless Waif) so you kinda don't have a choice if you want an all werewolf tribal.
