This is now a real, silver-bordered card. The cmc is one less. How do you feel?

Which is it, real or silver-bordered?

A silver-bordered card is still a real card.

Nah, no more so than a YGO card is real

Well, yeah, sure. A Yu-Gi-Oh! card is a real card too.

Apart from being a pun on an old card name; I'm really not sure why they had to put it in a 'breaks the rules' set. Ah well.

That's an unexpectedly anti-fun attitude from you, dude1818. MtG is many games to many people; there are many groups that allow silver-bordered cards - enough, in fact, for Wizards to print an entire third Un-set. And realistically speaking, Wizards were never going to print something making Storm Crow tokens in black border anyway.

Really? Because they printed something making Llanowar Elves tokens. I actually wouldn't mind seeing more of this if it makes sense. Though it makes sense rarely.

@Vitenka: Storm isn't coming back 'cause it brazoken [though, I personally maintain that it isn't broken so much as 'too difficult to properly balance'. Cards like Hunting Pack need to be costed so high that they look terrible... up until the point where they break the format.] So, yeah, it's only ever going to end up in silver land.

FWIW, some segment of cards in an Un-set need to appeal to Spike. Believe it or not, not every Spike is a super serious tournament player. Some Spikes can be downright goofballs. Cards like Crow Storm are meant to appeal to them.

MaRo said that the only cards that are black-borderable are the very simple ones and this one. If this was in black border, it would be prohibitively expensive

I'm really happy that this was printed as a real card.

Good for you, dude! I think it's every amateur cardsmith's dream to have something they fabricated become a reality!

That sounds so preppy and I'm so done.
