awesome in a soldier deck, lots of good support card to make cheap soldiers now. Mobilization, Raise the alarm, Knight-Captian of Eos, Patrol Signaller...

awesome card for soldier swarm/weenie/token decks. Block attacking creatures with untapped soldiers, and then tap your soldiers to exile creatures that weren't blocked.

oh, and a thing to add to Guest's list of good soldier cards - Martial Coup.

No I in team, but there's an M and an E. Sorry coach.

Question: Say you have Mobilization and 5 soldiers (including this guy). You attack with all 5, then you tap all 5 to exile a creature. The 5 creatures are still attacking, right? And if the opponent doesn't block, he takes the damage?

@a7141988: Yes they're still attacking. I'm not sure I would ask rules questions here. I'd write into the JudgeCast podcast at mtgcast (judgecast@gmail.com), or check the forums here or on IRC to ask rules questions.

Once a creature is declared as an attacker, untapping or tapping does not change his status as an attacker. You can absolutely attack with vigilant soldiers and still use CM's ability without removing your soldiers from combat. You can also block with the soldiers and then tap them to exile a creature before combat damage is done, and they will likewise still do combat damage. The last time this wasn't true was back in 1999 before 6th edition rules took effect.

There is no I in team, but there is an I in pie, in meat pie, and meat is the anagram of team... I dunno what he's talking about.

Best of these lords.
(Chosen Prophet, Voice of the Woods, Graveborn Sovreign, Skirk Firemarshal and the wizard).

Remove next to anything.
Even those annoying colossi.

Also inthe best tribe for toughnening creatures, so gets very hard to kill (Daru warchief, etc.)

Fantastic card.
4.5/5
