Random Generator gave me Heart of Light and Seasoned Marshal. Alternative name: Lightly-Seasoned Marshal.
Seasoned Marshal is the third card that's popped up in the mashup file more than once. Funny, how none of the cards that have popped up twice have been common. All of them, though, have been printed numerous times, and I doubt I got the same entry off of gatherer, so, not too weird.
Not that I'm complaining too much. This combo gave me a chance to fix a card that needed some help. Has anyone intentionally played with Seasoned Marshal? Even back in the day, it seemed like a bad idea. All your opponent needed was two creatures, and you probably ended up either losing your Marshal, or trading with a creature that costs less than it. The most annoying part was, it was a good idea for a mechanic... but I guess Wizards were just a little afraid of it being too good.
Makes a lot of sense.
