I find it humorous that it loses to Sanctuary Cat in a fight.

I thought it was meh at first, but then I remembered how big of a deal exalted is in this set.

I remember almost drafting this for my UW deck.

Is there ever a time one would need eight freaking Tundra Wolves in one deck? Not to mention that (in my opinion) Warclamp Mastiff is a much less elegant name than Tundra Wolves. My point is, why couldn't they just have reprinted Tundra Wolves?

@Tiggurix; because wolves aren't white anymore... wolves are wild and untamed, hence primarily green. Hounds are usually trained and domesticated, hence white. I'll admit that the name is a bit clunky though.

White = 1/1 first striker on turn one that can be equipped and exalted? And this is a bad card in weenie white? You guys are crazy, or mad with power creep. This is a very solid card. And that sweet, sweet art? Oh man, some folks were in a bad mood they day they visited this card's page.

It's not a Tundra Wolves rerpint because nowadays wolves are mostly in green's slice of the color pie, while white gets their domesticated cousins. By the same logic, if they were to reprint Elven Warhounds (ingoring the fact that its ability is blue now) they would probably make it a wolf.

Tundra Wolves is better because it can become a first strike deathtoucher with Wren's Run Packmaster and this can't.
