Another animal mashup, this time using Sabretooth Tiger and Boa Constrictor. I unfortunately had to make the Constrictor activation costly if I expected non-green red decks to draft this card. a 2/1 first striker for 4 just isn't appealing.

Also of note, I originally wanted to tack Rootwalla on this card... but then it occurred to me that Ghor-clan Bloodscale beat me to it. I suppose I could have made a more efficient version of that card... but... meh.

A red/green defensive card? We don't see many of those nowadays.

Agreed. But as long as the rest of the red cards are tilted forward, I figure an exception to the rule is fine. Besides, the set has a few twiddle effects. It could, in theory, be used to punch.

Cat snake haha, i love it!
