So. Much. Cute.

Wonderful. Appropriate. Lovely creature type. Lovely art for it. Undestated flavour text.

And.. white? White doesn't usually get Suntail Hawk nowadays without some downside. Which is a shame - I hate to siggest polluting the simplicity of this. Could it be blue? The flavour text says it should be blue. Not that blue gets Flying Men any more either. Hmmm. "Sacrifice this unless you have Apex?" (See Glint Hawk.)

Eh, it's lovely. I give it a pass, even if it's a slight stretch - some things in a set get to be.

If I haven't said, by the way - I really love this set - both in idea and in the main parts of its execution. I think it needs focussing down quite a lot; but I do love it.

Thanks, that means a lot to me!

Yes, it sure does need focusing, I will try to update the skeleton in the next few days plus a list with possible archetypes to play for most of the 2 colour combos, and then try to edit/add cards if some are lacking too much or way too supported.

Blue and white do both get Suntail Hawk/Flying Men these days, sometimes even with upside. See e.g. Aven Skirmisher (common, and had the extremely relevant type Warrior); Faerie Miscreant; Galerider Sliver; Jace's Phantasm; Hypnotic Siren; Mausoleum Wanderer; Topplegeist; and even Judge's Familiar which obsoletes both of them at once!

This is fine, and seems very sensible for the set.
