This wall has a massive butt for 3 mana. Defenders could be a thing in Draft if not in Modern with all of the Eldrazi Defenders.

A big butt for this limited format.

Goes well with that humunculus guy that mills X where X is the number of creatures with defender you control. Obviously because he has defender but with the big body and stellar cost, mill could make a standard comeback. Also, a better than fog bank alternative. Or use both in the defender mill deck. Options! This guy will love good control decks tho, he can block just about everything but rakdos/chaos imps(etc.) and survive.

Handy wall right there. Not entirely sure who put a wall on a bridge though.
Art is phenomenal though. 5/5 just for that.

I was surprised that they didn't remake Wall of Denial for Azorius.

Very relevant for the azorius aligned players. Very annoying for just about everyone else.

Yet another solid wall for this set. Pros like me will be using this to make defending look sexy.

A very solid defender for RtR draft. Not many creatures are getting through this thing.

Threw it into my illusion casual as a 2 of, just because there were less relevant cards and in a Lord of the Unreal deck this is a mono blue Wall of Denial :P

Why does the only illusion wall have to be a piece of junk? A 0/6 defender flyer that costs 2u. I wish fog bank was an illusion. The only advantage this has is that it doesn't die to explosive Impact. One more toughness would make it way better.

3/5. Solid defender with flying. Limited will love this card as a way to force opponents to use valuable removal on a blocker. Constructed might see this in Turbo Fog builds.

@C1455 There's one more Illusion wall, Illusionary Wall. Trust me, that wall is far from trash.

Much more burn resistant then fog bank, and better against rancor.

Strictly worse than Wall Of Denial. Unless you're playing mono Blue. Which I don't.

This is pretty decent. It stops most threats in Standard (and being blue, you counter the ones that are bigger). It also is a great choice for Phenax/Doorkeeper based decks, which I think are going to be a surprise underdog.

Illusions are always fun for blue, and I miss walls in general. They need to be strong like this, but not too strong.
