This is a pretty good spider! How often does that happen?

A one-man air defense for ground-bound green and red decks. Reach plus first strike plus 3 toughness means he blocks *very* well. Only reason he isn't worth a 5 is the need to have a red permanent in play to get his full power - this limits his use in some white-green decks.

A bizarre looking arachnid with actual functional abilities and unique flavoe text. YES!

Is a mountain a red permanent?

All lands, unless otherwise stated on the card, are considered uncolored permanents.

This deserves more than a 3. Even without the red permanent ability, it's still a soldi-early game blocker that shuts down your opponents cheap flyers. I run four of these in my spectrum deck and the make for nice 3rd turn blockers.

One of the few things that can block a certain pesky vampire and live to tell the tale.

3/3 first striker is nothing to scoff at on the offense too

This spider was absolutely murderous in limited. I love it.

Awww cool little common. A 3/3 with reach and first strike for 2Green in red/green aggro is good value.

Beautiful card and some great flavor. Zendikar/Alara reeks of this color synergy that I love, much more so than silly willy tribal Shadowmoor/Even/Morningtide.

2/3 Reach for 3 is nothing to laugh at.
3/3 Reach and First Strike for 3 is terrifying.

3/3 first striker able to block flyers... Pretty cool, arguably an interesting replacement for Giant Spider for decks with red mixed in.

I'm surprised more spiders don't have First Strike to represent getting caught in their web and them getting a nice hit in.
