there really is no point to this card
its ok, as far as cards go
but for three you could play Palace Gaurd or Veteran Swordsmith
both cards are better for the type of deck you would play this in
ok for control, i gess, but white has, to my knowlegd, not very many other control cards
it would only work good in late game, o ya, YOULL BE PLAYING MUCH BETTER LATE GAME CARDS
the art is not bad (i dont like it, but it not bad drawing)
all in all, this card will not find its way into many decks

Greta card and good for setting your oppoant back a bit. Also, with a bit of pump, it becomes a good figher.

Personally, If I was banking on utilizing Armament Master like any good Kor deck should, then this card has amazing potential. With one piece of equipment on Armament Master, you've got a 4/4 creature than can hold down any potential blocker, for two whole turns. This could be more than enough to give you the edge.

Amazing at limited...someone at my table drafted 5 and dominated people by keeping everyone tapped for 4 turns in a row or so and attacking with a bunch of 2/2's

As for not getting into constructed, it will play a small part, but I think it can go into a few decks.

great card, excellent art.

Also, for the next U series, they need to have a Kor Hooker, with the ability to put disease counters on any card that attacks it :P

this plus spidersilk net...mmmm

Anyone running with control and/or prison decks will love this card. You get a nice 2-for-1 effect on a 2/2 body, relatively early in the curve. It has the very nice side effect of immobilizing mana accelerators like llanowar elves and birds of paradise.

Combos very nicely with bounce effects, and anyone that can take out tapped creatures will love her as a combo... I'm looking at you, Royal A-ssasin.

At least a 3.5/5, probably better.

I'm in love with this card. It's costed perfectly, it has two well-supported creature-types, and it's got a powerful, elegant, and flavourful ability.

Very well designed, 4/5

This cardis amazing in a mono white lockdown deck. I use it to hold down the fort while my Emeria Angels make tokens for my World Quellers. It's a good white version of Sleep.

I like this card as anti titan tech when backed up by mimic vat and sun titan

She's quite annoying. Tapping down a creature and keeping it tapped for a bit can be completely life-saving. It's not a bomb, but just plain old annoying.

This is a pretty good card as weenies go - you definitely don't only want it late, it's fine tapping an early blocker.
