true believer may be cheaper, but it can't beat down like this cat spirit.

4/5 flier for 6, not horrible, but usable. add in being impervious to burn decks, discard decks, sacrifice based creature destruction, and most affects that say "all creatures" because they are followed by the phrase "target player controls". Yeah I think I can play that.

Like true believer, only better because it beats and you can still target yourself.

Could realistically see a cloud post/plains deck using stonehewer giant get this spirit of the hearth into play then get shield of kaldra onto it and lightning greaves or some combination thereof. After that, your opponent has to deal with a 4/5 flying indestructible that wont die to wrath of god and no way to target you directly. On other hand that's also a lot of set up, so good for casual, but not for tournaments, especially in the current power level of the game where black decks can turn 3 a dark depths and vampire hexmage into a 20/20 indestructible.

Stops any graveyard-removing shenanigans, too, because those always state "exile all cards from target player's graveyard". For someone like me, this is golden.

Amazeing stuff here. Being protected matters a huge amout agaist many decks these days.

I would have liked to have seen this as an archon. That minor complaint aside, this is pure white defence at its most hilarious (or annoying, depending on which side of the table you're sitting on). I can picture many a smirk when this resolves, but since its ability doesn't protect itself, it's still balanced (theoretically). Even if it isn't balanced, why should you care?

Go rob another house? How charitable. Do whatever you like, just don't bother me.

I understand that creatures and players HAVE abilities, but saying "You have hexproof" sounds like a lolcat is talking.

Flavortext took a while to sink in for me. At first I thought it was like "yeah, go ahead. Rob another house. See what happens." which made no sense to me, because the spirit would have failed to prevent the first robbery. Upon deeper thought, he means "rob any house but this one and I won't care, but rob this one and I will rape you." Upon deepest thought, he doesn't mean anything. But his snarl means something to the thief anyway.

I completely turned that flavor text around. Instead of the spirit protecting a home, it's telling the thief he'll be protected throughout the night, so go rob more houses.
Anyway, this along side of Leyline of Sanctity makes for some fun protection. Too bad attacking doesn't require you to target an opposing player. Both cards fall to cheap removal, but most players i've run across don't run both creature and enchantment removal.
This was so great; I used it in a cat-deck as a primary flier, and kept a black deck at bay for a long time because it ran Rend Flesh (this was pre-Doomblade), and the rest was player-targeting.
Either way, I'd always consider a spot for this guy, he's not amazing, but he does more than you'd realize at first glance.

@Donovan_Fabian There is always final judgment, but what are the chances your opponent would have that one card?

Diregraf Captain. I have hexproof too. So this is what it feels like....feels pretty good actually...you know what, screw you. I'm not sharing. You don't have hexproof anymore. You took me for granted, now I'm going to be selfish and mean and HAVE FUN DOING IT!

I propose that this card's community nickname (in the same vein as Tim and Swim Tim, etc) should hereafter "officially" be known as Mufasa.

Combine with Ghostly Prison, Norn's Annex, and Peacekeeper.
