See Challenge # 128.

Balal, low gravity, lush jungles, what do you get?

I always thought red should have more temporary-flying. Although it shouldn't get too much, and it's a shame this is directly less good than U/W/B versions which are non-conditional, but that's probably unavoidable for common.

Haha. Hilarious flavor.

Giggle!

Power level looks fine as you say.

Thanks :)

Well, it's an excellent alternative to "small common red flyers just cost more", true. The best 3 drop flyer in red common is still a toss up between Fire Drake and Hobgoblin Dragoon. The only red common flyer that costs 4 is Blistering Dieflyn (assuming Rukh Egg doesn't count.)

I wonder why this is okay when Bladetusk Boar is worryingly powerful? Is it just the precedent of Assault Griffin/Snapping Drake/Jagwasp Swarm?

Edit: Huh, hadn't realised Bladetusk Boar was reprinted in Journey to Nyx. Okay, then I guess either way round is okay.

I notice Boggart Brute is 3/2 Menace for 2R. I guess that most decks have SOME defence against fliers, and any deck can defend against menace by playing more creatures, but half of games, intimidate may mean "completely unblockable"?
