Collorbendy creature for the Archer deck.
Maybe it could fight instead? Ala Atzocan Archer.
Fighting would be the most likely implementation.
So there is an Archer already that fights in a rather not one-sided fashion. Yet I feel Clear Shot has a better feeling for ranged combat.
Opinions?
Seems fine to me. There's room for both styles of Archer.
Sniper being even-firstier-strike-than-that seems a fine flavour to me.
And black sure gets "ETB: -1/1 counter". So that's fine. That this can be used pure-green is a lot less so. If it could shoot fliers only I'd be happier.
Or as noted, wording it as a one-sided-fight would keep flavour for green while being mechanically identical in 99% of cases. So "deals its power" rather than "deals 1"?
agree with Vitenka about wording. I don't super mind about the flying thing, it would be neat, but it's your card... Also it doesn't need to be that specific imo.
Also it makes a lot more sense that an archer would at LEAST hit FIRST, but clear shot makes way more sense to me than the ixalan boi.
