They cant block it because they cant figure out which way its facing.

I'd play one of these very happily, but several on the field at once could be taxing

You spin me right round baby right round... No?
How about with phyrexian revoker naming it so then you can say this is a "no spin zone"... still not good enough?
This guy is just a spin-off of spincrusher.
You had better start laughing, I could do this all day.

I call it the Spingine, and it wins games in Limited.

Got me to the finals in my Prelease. Solid Limited card, though it's easy to get Blisterstuck or Virulented... watch out! When they don't have removal, this'll eat them in 3 life increments.

Equip on of your own critters with livewire lash. preferably it has infect. then target it with this ability... koth of the hammer could effectively beat 2 player at once assuming you have 5 mountains in play assuming you have just ONE livewire attached to an infect critter.

Spin, spin. Spin Hina, spin!

...I'm so calling this Hina from now on. She's going to take all my bad luck and give it straight to you.

The only problem with that combo is that Livewire Lash only triggers from spells, not abilities. So if I were you, I wouldn't go trying to build a deck around that combo.

Overall, not too great of a card. The toughness is way too low. Red spot removal will take it out, and it's a mana sink if you want to deal combat damage with it. The only thing that would make it decent is Grafted Exoskeleton.

I ain't gonna lie, paying into unblockability is almost my least favorite mechanic, and that's only because banding exists. Why not Goblin War Drums or, I don't know, just killing all their blockers? Because red certainly can't just kill things.

Junk.

I toss on Grafted Exoskeleton, attack twice and win.

Hmmm, well, its actually a good creature for exalted if you splash red, and pumping it with Battle Cry isn't too bad either.

Best card ever. I was trying to find the hidden messsage "Protection from Hornet Sting" in its flavour text, but I couldn't find the P.

You know, I think that statement may have been a bit too overoptimistic of you, Ketuc.
