HORSEMANSHIP!!!
That ability is like an in-joke with the group I play with. Partly it's because of a theoretical un-card we made up, "Block This!", with flying, shadow, horsemanship, landwalk(no, just landwalk; it's unblockable if they control a land), intimidate, can't be blocked except by walls... and so, the only thing that could block it is its counterpart, "Wall of immaterial clockwork pegasi."

Just... just try to imagine the art on that card.

I prefer Sun Quan, Lord of Wu for one more mana.

Within set constructed (hahah) this card is a total bomb.

Arghh. I bet I could block it, though.

Yep! There is ONE card, according to gatherer, that fits those parameters.
It's called Shield Sphere. Notice the cost is 0, so you can put it in play with no lands.

Applause?

No, wait! It doesn't have flying! It needs an aura!
Anyone have any 0 suggestions?

Shield Sphere can't even block Lu Meng, let alone littlebeast's invention. Besides flying, it also lacks shadow and horsemanship. Not sure how you missed the last one when that's how the joke started...

@littlebeast:

Trap Runner.

Yeah, kind of a dirty trick, but it'll block that thing alright.

littlebeast- challenge accepted! for bonus points, I also actually found a Design that allowed me to beat yours, AND was flavorful to boot. Your clockwork pegasi thingies didn't really impress me enough on that mark.

The God Damn Batman, Dark Knight Detective

Legendary Creature-- Human Horror Vigilante (vMv) *not Mythic Rare: Bat-Rare.

Horsemanship, Flying, Shadow, Intimidate, Vigilance
Batman may block creatures with Intimidate as though they didn't have Intimidate.

If you are being attacked at night, Batman gains flash until end of turn and you can play him without paying his mana cost. If you do, return Batman to your hand at the end of the combat step.
Whenever Batman deals combat damage to a player at night, that player discards two cards unless you draw two cards.

T: Double-Fight target creature (Batman deals damage equal to twice his power to target creature)
0: You may put an artifact card you own from outside of the game into your hand. Activate this ability only any time something happens, and only put cards that are exactly what you need into your hand this way. (Equipments named 'Sword of....' are artifact cards)

2/3

Let me clarify: I in no way meant for this to be a fair card. If it were, it wouldn't be the God Damn Batman, now, would it? =D

Here's the Oracle Text I made:
Creatures cannot block Batman.
Libraries cannot outsmart Batman.
Planeswalkers cannot have more gadgets than Batman.


Here's the Revised Oracle Text I made:
He's the God Damn Batman.
Update: Knight Exemplar does not actually make Batman Indestructible. I do have my limits.

=D

Also combos with Friday NIGHT Magic LoL

@littlebeast

Trap Runner was said, but also Curtain of Light.

It seems there are more than enough ways to block it.

I am more partial to just blowing it up, though. With that many abilities, it would have to have a huge investment in one way or another.

That would make me very happy.
