I like to imagine this guy bursting out of the monster's chest when he kills it.

And now we have Blind Zealot. Same cost, size, and rarity but you get to keep the damage AND it has evasion but it only loses the anti-regen clause. Gotta love the Creep.

This dude looks like an early version of the Phyrexian Negator and Phyrexian Obliterator.

It was actually pretty good when it was printed. People played vanilla 2/2 for 3 mana back then ( i.e. Grey Ogre ) and this at least gave you some removal potential. Esp vs. black decks (mono colored was the way it was back then) where Terror was the key removal.

Plus this Cpl. Dobbs guy sounds like a real joker- talk about being afraid? See Goblin War Drums - you are a coward Dobbs.

Probably one of my favorite pieces of art in Magic, period. Kind of inspired some creatures from a book I never finished. 5/5 for the art alone!

The "is not blocked" clause holds it back, but at least its a deterrent for attackers. And it can be gravedigger back and whatnot. 3.5/5

As for the art, I love it. Feels like I am in an amazon or something and a headhunter is about to assassinate one of my creatures. 5/5
