For Challenge # 003.
Good ability, but flying does muck that up a bit. It feels like you got a good idea for a red Sphinx, and decided that the idea was more important then the implementation.
You're right, it's such an aggressive creature, and yet has a blocking ability. I wish I could give it vigilance.
You could change "~ blocks... blocked by ~" to "~ becomes blocked by... blocking ~"? That'd make it more red.
Changed to Alex's suggestion; also added a clause.
Of course, with flying, this will happen less often...
