Mashup of Coordinated Assault and Wei Infantry
This had to be a vanilla 1C. How to add a spell effect? Bolster is basically reinforce, but less annoying because it follows bloodrush/bestow logic of ALWAYS granting the bonus of a creature rather than usually doing that, but sometimes sort-of doing that.
Reinforce should have been very good -- you can play a creature which is also an instant speed combat trick that permanently pumps another creature. But somehow it seemed fiddly and pointless. I'm not sure why, I hope this is better.
It's not shown on this card, but creatures with keywords would also grant those with bolster.
Seems odd to invent this shortly after Bestow is invented. I mean, ok, sure, you can presumably price bolster more cheaply than you could bestow; but even so.
Huh, I always liked reinforce (Burrenton Bombardier). This is at least less restrictive than bloodrush (Slaughterhorn). I think the Bolster cost could be just 1 mana.
Yeah, I don't know why I didn't. I think I barely played with it, but just found it confusing that an important mode of the card was buried in the rules text. I don't know why I found that worse than other "discard this: " effects.
Not sure about cost. That would make it better than Skinbrand Goblin, but that wasn't a very strong bloodrush card, so probably ok.
Given the single-mana cost was also on Slaughterhorn and Rubblebelt Maaka, I think Skinbrand Goblin's bloodrush cost is just "we can't go any cheaper than 1 mana and still require it to be red" :)
Fair point :)
