Hey! A straight up Nephilim! I find it funny that no one else decided to go for something like that. There's a stigma against these guys... but I know that many players found them cool, even when Wizards was calling them a mistake. Good job.

This one is certainly pretty nifty. Token Auras are pretty fiddly in physical gameplay terms, but the mechanic is great in the abstract.

I'm slightly worried that it can target itself, though; then next turn, each of those two can target themselves and you get 2 more... It's like a Spawnwrithe that doesn't have to get through.

It's more like Mirror-Sigil Sergeant++.

That's true, I suppose. CDEF is probably equivalent to 5W, and this is smaller, so I guess it might be fair.
