Puppy

WotC is moving towards "first strike on your turn," especially for cards like this that otherwise encourage turtling

I hadn't noticed — frankly I haven't been paying much attention to Magic for a few years, at least.

That said, the turtling is intentional. Do you think that's a poor choice?

On a common? I'd call it a poor choice.

Even on an uncommon this particular combination of abilities reminds me of Ranger en-Vec's problem: The redundancy between the two abilities is unappealing, too.

I don't think, having this redundancy warrants bringing in a tertiary keyword ability.

Okay! Thanks, folks. 😄
