My second favorite art for Wind Drake. Not much else to say, he's a limited card that fills a hole sometimes, but is never really amazing and that's okay.

Yay, the reprint no one really wanted! It's a decent Limited card but not much else. 1.5/5 for an unneeded reprint; we had this in M13, after all.

They should stop beating around the bush and reprint Storm Crow already,

Great Limited Card. Pretty nice in Dragon's Maze limited, probably going to see a lot of play in the prerelease. I don't think I've ever heard a limited player complain about a 2U 2/2 flyer before

Good old Wind Drake. Fine for limited, bad outside of it. The portal art is more kitschy, and the Tempest art more surreal / mysterious. I like the tempest one most, because it's not as generic, but this one would be second.

A pair of these were quite easily the most reliable little creatures in my Simic prerelease deck. Usually got in quite a lot of damage while my other creatures built up counters, forming true threats.

On a side note, this art really does put the ugly mutant drake in M13 to shame.

Carried me at the prerelease today, not much else to say.

Look, people are considering Steeple Roc in limited (me included).

Steeple. MotherFing. Roc.

If you believe this isn't good in limited, you haven't played limited.

Wind drake.

***.

Do we REALLY need another Wind Drake?

No.

We JUST got one in M13.

Has ANYONE ever said "Oh, I need more wind drakes! I wish this set had Wind Drakes." No! No one has EVER wanted to see another God*** ***ing Wind Drke!

2/2 Flying for 3's really not as bad as people say. Not great, but still a decent turn 3 creature.

Also pretty cool how it shows that, although Ravnica's a big city and not much else, it's still got weather, something that's easy to forget.

It may have been around recently, but when a set needs a mid-range flier in limited, well Wind Drake is as good as anything. So yeah, no one is going to be amazed, but cards like this are needed.
