Pointed Discussion

Probably not good enough to take up a constructed slot, but it's not altogether bad. Obviously made to work with other persist creatures, but it can also swipe a counter off one of the gemstone lands or a planeswalker or something of the kind in a pinch.

Though Persist is where this card really shines, let's not forget it's other various uses, such as slightly nerfing an opponent's creature with a +1/+1 counter on it, or really ***ing off an opponent's planeswalker. Also, It's got an aggressive little body (2/1 isn't that bad) and two very relevant creature types: Elf and Cleric.

But seriously only use this guy for persist. And even then you should use Heartmender.

You know, as a 1/1 one-drop i'd really like that guy.
Who needs 2 power as a medicine runner anyways?

he has no legs

Apparently planeswalkers don't like having medicine thrown at them...

Cool theme and has good bounce combo potential with Pesist and Undying.

Nice against planeswalkers in any format and Chalice of the Void in Legacy.

I am glad Huffytreefolkman mentioned the same thing I was thinking. Why does this guy have no legs? Is it because he runs so fast that he has no legs? With art like that I was hoping he would be a 2/1 Flash A lot of people are saying he is meant for Persist, but the ability to Kill planeswalkers is gravy also. Remember that most Planeswalkers require you to attack and deal damage but this guy gets around it. And he is in a color that typically doesnt remove counters that well, that has been moved to Black.

@vantha: He's in a crouched position while jumping. You can see that more clearly on the physical
card.
