This beats bitterblossom! I know that it's also a lot slower but it's good. I swear it!

The very concept of an a-ssa-ssin treefolk creature is somewhat amusing. I can just imagin him sneaking into a castel and trying to stealthly a-ssa-ssinate someone.

You know what'd be more awesome than a treefolk assassin?



Wall assassin.

If it applied a -1/-1 counter, it would be fantastic. (Mediocre compared to a lot of Mirrodin infect though, ;D)

The normal -1/-1 is okay for a draft or limited maybe and the card itself is barrels of fun; treefolk assassin? Hilarious art? No green?

Count me innnnnnn.

You know, Assassin doesn't necessarily mean stealthy; it can also mean sudden, as in a sudden attack. Imagine it; a treefolk runs up to you and smashes you forty feet into the air. Its

Interesting how the Assassin can only kill 1/1s though. I guess Sanctuary Cats are too tough for this treefolk to pick off unnoticed.

Seems like he'd be pretty awesome in a pauper deck, maybe? Assassinates those darn utility creatures that never swing. It's also nice that he can't target himself with the ability and will still beat face as a 3/3.

5/5 for creativity, off-color design, interesting effect, and more than anything: fair casting cost
This guy is a poster child for what casting costs should be.

This tree is out to kill you. It can't be resined with.
