It's cards like this that make no one take the Legends set seriously, and that includes me. I wish I could give him a 0/5. What I really can't believe is how they actually put this guy in Masters Edition 2. Honestly, I wish that inanimate pieces of cardboard could experience death so that I may rip this waste of ink to pieces.

Oh, wait, I can do that anyway. *RIIIIIP!*

You can't blame old creatures for being what they are. A 4/4 for 5cmc was pretty good way back when.

@nammertime: This is bad even by old standards. 4/4 for 5cmc wasn't good, it was just the average. Each of the basic Elementals was still better than that, for example. What makes this card insulting is that not only is it two-color, but also a legend. So that's two drawbacks with no benefit to outweigh. Compare this to Gwendlyn Di Corci, who costs one less mana, has the same total power/toughness, and comes with an awesome ability.

I remember having one of these when I was a kid. Always thought he looked like he needed a beat down.

Andrion's (alleged) advantage over Serra Angel and Water Elemental appears to be that he could take advantage of Cathedral of Serra and Seafarer's Quay. As I mentioned on that land cycle, the original intent was likely that you would include those lands as a matter of course, so your included legends could form an adventuring party of sorts. Problem? They over-estimated the efficacy of banding.

Horrible, and yet generally better than Kasimir, the Lone Wolf, which is a 5/3 with no abilities for 4UW.

Once upon a time, a designer from wotc thought that giving a creature more than one color would make it cool enough that it doesn't need any special ability..that someone was wrong..so wrong..


Jasmine Boreal, Kasimir the Lone Wolf, Lady Orca, Sivitri Scarzam and Tobias Andrion are examples of these.

Figurehead of Freedom?

Dude looks like a washed-up drunk pirate's understudy. The kind of guy who thinks he's a bard because this one time he sung four whole bars of a song without people screaming for his head.

Possibly the most hated EDH commander in the history of Magic. Tobias decks are the most challenging decks to go up against. When Tobias is out he swings for a full 4!!! Very few Magic players are prepared for such carnage.

I usually scoop as soon as he hits the table.

I had this guy in my WU deck for a while, then when Venser came out, I replaced him with that. After two games I missed him and had to put him back. :')

I would say that every WU legend in Legends was terrible, but I remembered that Rasputin Dreamweaver was actually kind of cool. So there's that, I guess.

Something about a legendary creature at common seems really contradictory... I guess he's just a really lacklustre hero. Maybe his claim to fame was helping old women cross the street?
