I'm imagining this is pretty useful on Glissa, the Traitor.

Hey, infiltration lens will be in standard for quite a while. Turn any fatass creature you have into a draw engine, or use the combo for a huge burst of cards in the midgame. This, along with hunter's insight and the new garruk seems to be making green card draw very strong.

Wizards, I'm glad you periodically bring this card back, but for god's sake, please ditch the Kamigawa art! Give us something new, or bring back the Anson Maddocks or DiTerlizzi art (or even the Phil Foglio version, if it's a light-hearted set).

Looks like he's holding the Mirari, which would make sense.

My buddy is putting this on an engulfing slagwurm. Needless to say, I'm frightened.

I will definitely be trying to cause my opponent to fold at least one game by enchanting Phyrexian Obliterator.

This card makes me excited. Not because I like this card, I think it's okay. But because I want to see rampage come back and be awesome and this is one of the few cards that could make it so. Come on, lemme see a 5 CC Craw Giant equivalent!!!

A lovely spell, simple and veratile, and very green. Stick it on a fatty and sweep their board, or stick it on a chump and let your fatties through. Now that's how green solves creature problems.

@Areps: The opponents can choose which "must-block" creature to block with each of their creatures.

Okay so I just built a deck using this and the following cards:

Aura Gnarlid
Beastmaster's Magemark
Bramblensap
Bramble Elemental
Fists of Ironwood
Khalni Garden
Copperhorn Scout

Buff Bramblesnap with Guardian's Magemark and/or Lure (assuming you don't have another creature enchanted with Guardian's Magemark or w/e). Use the tokens generated by Fists of Ironwood and Bramble Elemental to tap to pump Bramblesnap, attack with Copperhorn Scout and Bramblesnap, untap your tokens and tap them again to double the buff on Bramblesnap. Since the Bramblesnap has Lure all of the defending players have to block him, which gives him an additional +1/+1 for each blocking creature and he has trample...

Against a weenies or token deck that can be devastating or as powerful as any Pyroclasm. Against slower decks it can mean you smash every bomb that hits the table as it hits the table. And if you are worried about Deathtouch, remember, as attacker (if I'm not mistaken) you get to decide which creature is dealt damage first and thus you can have the Deathtouch defender dealt damage last, or simply skip all that and get a few Viridian Claws. Let's not forget that we have Aura Gnarlid and Bramble Elemental, likely enchanted with something, swinging as well and Aura Gnarlid gets an additional +1/+1 for each Lure, Spider Umbra, and Fists of Ironwood AND any aura's your opponent is using regardless of whether or not its attached to him. Something somewhere is getting hurt.

Put this on any creature with death touch and a possible 3 drop opponent board wipe . Put it on a creature with death touch and reach ,it wipes ALL creatures of their side of the field ,unless they are indistructible .

I would like to see this in m14 with new art!

Or perhaps a sorcery that does the same thing but until end of turn, for Green.

Decent card for its unique ability, but blah - that art is horrible! Looks like a deformed elf-thing floating in mid-air holding a metal bowling ball?!

If I have nacatl war-pride and u have lure on another creature do all their creatures block the lure or do they block the tokens? Or do they get to pick?

I agree with Ibn_Shisa. It seems that people don't even know what it is that the guy is holding in his hands. No wonder when the story of Kamigawa is so long gone that people don't even remember arcane spells.

What we have in this picture is That Which Was Taken. Which makes sense in Kamigawa setting, but not in M12 setting. IMHO the story of Apple of Discord is much wider known as it's straight from Greek myhology. For those who don't know it, here's a link to wikipedia:

If there's problems with royalties then Wizards should just commission for new art based on the golden apple.
