Absolutely, without a doubt, the BEST artwork on any MtG card. I sold all my cards but just couldn't part with this one. If I could find a print of this I'd frame it.

Protection from White is the best ability a creature can have in Legacy. Combine that with First Strike and 'firebreathing' to make use of your Dark Rituals later game... Whenever I wanna play my mono-black-aggro deck I am wrestling with whether or not to put these and Knight Of Stromgald (remember, Runed Halo!) or Nantuko Shade. There is the expression 'Dies to removal'. Although, the weight of Nantuko barrelling into your opponent's face conventional wisdom is that the lack of first strike and protection from- dont matter if you can close the game quicker. Im not so sure. Nantuko doesn't 'stick'. This is a fine option as a budget Nantuko or ourtight replacement.
this artwork rules. i used to sit around as a 10-year old staring at my copy of this card with no f-ing clue what it did until my cousin taught me how to play. even after that, this card was always in my deck because of how much of a bad motherfather it was.

Very nasty back in the day, these guys came out fast and hit hard, often following up devastating discard like Hypnotic Specter and Hymn To Tourach. Nice in Necropotence decks, too. Buzzsaw shield for the win!

Better than Black Knight for Cleric status. 4/5.

I'm getting some GWAR vibes from this piece.
In all seriousness, Ron Spencer is my favourite Magic artist, but I don't like what he did here. I find it a tad too cartoon. I prefer his more grotesque pieces.

Ron Spencer dose the best art on every card no matter how bad it is. Most of the time his art is on wicked cards like this.
