Now this one I like. I did wonder about islandhoming it, but island 'I trash lands behind me' seems fun. It's not horribly undercosted as just a big fat blocker - but unlike the sage it's neither optional nor repeatable.
Unspoken: Standing anywhere ELSE is distinctly unwise.
A mashup of Shrouded Serpent and Soldevi Sage.
I like it. Body looks undercosted, but it's got a nice pseudo-drawback in that the land-sac isn't optional. Good mashup in that it works as a whole card.

Does stuff with lands and drawing cards, is big and stompy... fits the slot perfectly.
I found myself saying "I could attack with this guy, but.. you might not block. Argle." which is just about perfect.
