Challenge # 080
Hitting up a random common creature (and waiting for something iconic) gave me... Balduvian Bears.
So. A legendary grizzly bear. Well, that's the cost and stats sorted out, anyway.
So, rare or mythic. Well, let's see what other abilities magic has granted bears. Flash... Bear Cub says that it's as big as its mother. There's an uncomfortable image. Other than that... there's a few size variants, a bit of blue hate... And Striped Bears gives card draw? Wtf? And Words of Wilding has been much discussed here before.
But it gives me a nice tribal idea. There we go. Instant evil combo; just add bears.
Sadly, I probably need to bump it to mythic; as the legendary downside just isn't down enough. (Though goodness me am I glad it's a legend - if you could get a few copies of this into play, it'd be a bearpocalypse)

Nice. Reminiscent of Mentor of the Meek. Not as good a card-drawing ability, but more powerful in her base stats.
"Instant evil combo; just add bears."
ROFL.
I think it triggering on itself is a bit pushed. But good design nonetheless.
Ah, yeah, it should probably be "another Bear".
