Creature type should be "Human Bit(c)h."

Maybe, but she's still sort of 'tappable' :P

I feel like she's in the wrong block. I keep expecting her to have an esper arm.

Not as abusable as the other soulbonders. I kind of wish she milled more.

Might not be much of an improvement, but combo with Galvanic Alchemist to increase milling potential by at least a little.

I wish it was a 1/1 for 3cmc with the same ability. It would make a world of difference to me. 2cmc for a 0/1 would be just gorgeous. As it stands it serves no purpose other than to give me an opportunity to reminisce about the days of hedron crab. How I miss that unassuming little moron...

@HuntedWumpusMustDie: I know you're not disrespecting The Crabmaster. As far as Ms. Middlemanagement here, slow mill is slow.

And the award for worst soulbond creature!

Seriously, I have been playing mill for a long time, and this could go down as one of the least impressive mill creatures I have seen. The cost, the frailty of soulbond and the underwhelming ability all add up to an awful creature. Maybe if it milled for 3 or even 4 per tap? That could get scary!

i drafted two of her and three dreadwaters. she is better than she looks. milling at least 4 every turn in a slow format with 40 card decks is pretty significant.

It's like she's grading your opponent's homework...

She shines in the 40card limited format. I've milled opponents with this in combo with some of those milling blue zombies from this block.

The only reason I'd include her in a mill deck would be to give my Excavators a little extra use. But I'd prefer to throw in, say ghostly flicker and maybe even a singleton infinite reflection.

She looks really tsundere to me for some reason. "I-It's not like I like you or anything,>. Baka."

Pretty neat when comboed with Grimoire Thief. And even then not that great. It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't cost so much mana to cast.
