| Fae are getting hated on! |         Has everyone seen the barrage of faerie hate in the new set. Aside from the volcanic fallout spell there's...                  Scattershot Archer         Common         G         Elf Archer         tap: ~this~ does 1 damage to each flying creature         1/2                  and                  Cumber Stone         Uncommon         U3         Artifact         Creatures your opponents control get -1/-0                  The archer comes out before counter, is reusable and has a relevant creature type (elf). The artifact is good versus fae and kithkin alike!                  Thoughts?

|         Yeah, the archer looks tits. It can be splashed into every deck with the super tap for all colors lands available in standard. Cumberstone is just a blue reprint of weakstone. I think it sucks. I just build up faeries until i get a lethal amount, then cryptic.

|         True, but this is assuming that the other player is doing nothing while you build your fairie horde.

|         Well, having piloting faeries a bit myself your opponent does tend to do nothing or at least nothing that resolves. I think it will be better against kithin or red deck wins or something, but over all i don't think it is playable. Unless Tezzy makes it a creature.

|         I like the elf quite a bit though.

|         you gave me an archer deck for the last Haloween tournament. They went nicely with the time walk and fog themes.

|         I think it made up for getting the unbeatable angel deck.
