With that P/T and those abilities, this would end up costing a lot more.

6 drop for sure :D

This doesn't look like a card - or a Human for that matter. It's like a Baloth or something.

True. I'm tryna make a common mercenary-themed card that would fit into mono black in this vacuum-esque set

So, issues here. Black DOES get meaty cards. But they are typically demons with downsides, or rare.

Big stompy common vanilla is very very much Green's territory. This is a green card. With a white creature type and a black casting cost. It's all over the place!

Black mercenaries should be the sneaky spy type, the evil assasin type, and the nasty critters squiggling in the dark. Not the "Yeah, I'm twice the size of your elephant, whaddya wanna do about it?" dumb brutes. And your cardset already says the archetype is " Monsters". So this just doens't fit.

Mechanically, mind you - what can I say? It's a square stat/cost vanilla. If this was mythic and had a tonne of goodstuff on top, I wouldn't blink. No issue there. It's just... completely the wrong colour and flavour.

Yeah i realise that too...

black wouldn't do this at common, i do like the card (also there isn't really in tribal if i recall properly in the black theme, so humans being monsters is fine, flavorfully too...)

I will make it an uncommon, lower its pt and give some blacky stuff too...
