Am I the only one who has a problem with her right hand?

Man, True... surely untap counts for SOMETHING...
Also, I like how in Magic, spider powers are toughness and blocking things that fly.

@Truekitsonga What kind of Standard decks have you been winning with that use that many pump spells that is not infect? Pump spells are for draft and sealed. This one is a good one.

You know what they say about women with large hands?
No really, I'm asking, because I don't know.

I suspect this Lady of Videns will have her own double-face card ^_^

Love the flavor, when used on a human. And yeah, she'll probably be a double-faced Legendary in Dark Ascension or Roll. One half is a lady, the other...a SPIDER! Which would be nice with that M12 Spider Lord. PLUS: Giant Spider was supposedly kept in instead of Giant Growth because of this block.
Of course, that's all speculation.

I didn't realize how good this card was until I played in a draft last weekend. Untap your creature, pump it and it gains reach for cmc 3. Yeah its pricey, but so good when it counts. 3.5/5 but I'm giving it a 4.

Surprisingly reliable as a removal spell in limited.

Disappointing that we didn't get to see the Lady of Videns in Dark Ascension. Would have been great material for a double-faced card as a human/a human spider. Along the lines of Delver of Secrets.
Perhaps there is still hope for that in Avacyn Restored?

I wish Lady of Videns could be a legendary flip card - she could turn into a giant spider and enter the core set.

Could be an interesting sideboard card in pump infect deck I suppose, literal reach to effectively turn creatures like Ichorclaw Myr into Deadly Recluse could be quite handy with all these spirits running around in standard. Not bad, however sideboard only, as a bit of a push at three mana.

As with many other instants, I have found that this kicks serious butt with Precursor Golem. Wipe out a whole air force for only 3 CMC.
Beyond something like that, though...yeah, it's pretty meh.

Umm... Has anyone noticed the combo with Tree of Redemption?!? It gains reach and it practically says gain 4 life!

I was sad we didn't get one in Dark Ascension. I'd love to see one in the next Commander release. We can has, Wizards?

Instant Giant Spider! Just add a creature!
Videns is a great name, by the way. Viduo is Latin for "widow", and what little animals are known as widows?
