History: [-]

Might be better as a {g}{r} creature. Ability seems to be interesting enough to warrant playtesting though.

Previously had "B, T: Target creature attacks this turn if able."

Currently has very weak fighting stats for its cost, but a repeatable Lure ability. For playtesting whether this is good or bad.

Also, before it had a "{b}: Target creature an opponent controls attacks you this turn if able" ability - i know the Alluring Siren ability appears in blue, but is this fit for black?

playtest feedback: havne't actually drawn this creature yet. Pay attention to power level.

Before:

Viper {1}{b}{g}
Creature - Zerg [u]
Flying
­{b}, {t}: Target creature an opponent controls attacks you this turn if able.
­{g}, {t}: Target creature blocks this turn if able.
2/2


  • The first ability was cute but almost always never relevant.
  • This second ability was always a little lacking.
  • Merging the two abilities allows for a repeatable expensive pseudo-fight, for targeted removal. Let's see if it's too strong.

old ability too expensive to matter. Abilities are sorta in-pie? Deadly Allure even though it's primarily in green-red now
