My friend was quite upset that there wasn't a Legendary Werewolf in AVR. So here's my whack at it. Tovolar, Mondronen Alpha |   Legendary Creature - Werewolf Haste, First Strike   : Transform all Human Werewolves you control. He beckoned others to follow him; they joined in his rage. 4/4 What do you guys think?

The second ability is genius. A very nice card overall.

 Each of its nine tails is imbued with supernatural power, and it can live for a thousand years.



My Standard deck: Setting SunThink of how Neo couldn't beat the robots, but they kept him around anyways to defeat Agent Smith. Sure, the robots might not like having a Neo running rampant because instead of playing their favorite 4 drop fatty robot, they have to play a bunch of one mana Matrixs to contain him, but at least Neo keeps Agent Smith from reanimating an Iona on turn two.
Are you saying I'm trying to blame my loss on something? I don't care that I lost, I care that he's a sore loser, and a cheater, and a liar.
CKY, are you bad at anything?
I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.
I mean, In KevinWorld, Mark is reading the very words I'm typing as well. Heck, in KevinWorld maybe I am Mark.
I'm beginning to think CKY may be anime in real life...
Don't go anywhere CKY, I need to crash dramatically through your window and propose marriage and I don't want you throwing off my paradrop.
[In response to a thread about how hard grading is]
Upon reading this, I've found myself completely unable to operate in the world. I tried to decide what to eat for breakfast, and pondered the vast consequences of my choice. How do I balance my dietary needs against my desire to eat good-tasting food? Should I factor in how long it takes to prepare? Cereal is ready in moments, but bacon takes longer to cook.
Then there is the impact on other industries. Do people in the cereal industry deserve to be employed more than people in the bacon industry? Which industry should I support? I don't even have the data regarding HOW MUCH the cereal industry benefits from me eating a bowl of cereal, or how much the bacon industry benefits from me eating a side of bacon. How can I compare two qualities I can't even quantify?
And let's not forget the milk on the cereal. In addition to determining whether or not milk is healthy for me, how much that benefits the milk industry, and how much the people in the milk industry deserve my support, we have to factor in the fact that cows are put under brutal conditions in order to collect thier milk. Of course, the same goes for the pigs, and then they get killed. Of course, I really like bacon. So I need to come up with a scale that compares the value of cow happiness to pig happiness to my happiness. What trade-offs am I willing to make here? Does the fact that the pig gets put out of its misery count as a plus or a minus? Isn't bacon bad for me anyway?
Deciding what to eat for breakfast (or any meal) is impossible. Help me!
I must admit chinkeeyong, you have the most interesting character ideas; and you play them well.
Anyway, you'd be surprised about Time Stop. When I first saw that card as a relatively new player I didn't see its full potential until I read the reminder text. Is it that unintuitive, though? Mine I mean. What is possibility? Is it possible for me to type these words with my tusks? No, because I don't have tusks. Although I am now tempted to go buy some - obviously not from poachers or whatever - and use them as typing apparatus. I could be the best secretary ever. "What's your words per minute sir?" "Well, only six, but I use these tusks to type them." "You're hired!" That was the interview. And is anyone else disappointed that "apparati" is not the plural form of apparatus? I just could strangle a dictionary, because "apparatuses" is a real word. I guess it sounds pretty cool. I'll call them my Apparatusks.

I too was disappointed at the general lack of werewolves and werewolf aftermath in AVR.
Tovolar is excellent, I would love to have him out alongside Huntmaster.

I do love the second ability, but you're unfortunately missing half of what makes a legendary Werewolf so awesome. He needs green, otherwise as an EDH general, you're missing half of the werewolves. I know, dumb to include another colour, just to make it more EDH friendly, but that's part of what it needs. Maybe make the transform ability   , which makes it the propper colour identity? Or else entirely hybrid mana.

The thing is lore-wise Tovolar is very red. I was thinking about making it a red-green ne but I just couldn't see it. Another legendary that came to mind was the human one, Mikaeus. He's mono-white not white-green. That's another reason behind it. I might put a green in both costs maybe...

I love the card but honestly I think this would be best:

I do love the card, especially the transform ability. I kinda feel like he should somehow be helping you get werewolves out, tho. Like drawing a card when you play one? Still, very nice!

Well moonmist is green, so the transform ability should be green (Colour identity) and the rest red, to show his aggressiveness. Anyways, I was also annoyed we didn't get any of the legendary werewolves... so I'ma gonna build Gristelbrand demon tribal instead lol

Honestly, I'm hoping that Planechase 2012 gives us a Legendary Werewolf and a Legendary Ally.
