The worst card ever printed in a commander precon... is also a Commander 2013 exclusive. This isn't even "politics" it's just... trash.

A bit underwhelming, honestly.

I wonder why this wasn't printed in Return to Ravnica block. It is so Dimir!

EDIT: @RAV0004
Are you sure that you did read it right? It is unblockable against bigger mobs...

It's a 4/4 for 5 in black, with conditional unblockability.

They could do a lot worse. 3.

On an unrelated note... does anyone else think this card feels kind of like an old school black card? Like, if the ability had been "Can't attack" (which I read it as at first and was like "what?"), it'd have fit right in in Ice Age or Legends.

@RAV0004: Who said that every Commander card had to play politics? This is a card that plays up the fact that there are multiple opponents (as opposed to "can't be blocked if defending player controls fewer creatures than you control," which would be the same in 1v1 but not play up multiple opponents). I agree that this card is underwhelming but it isn't trash. A decent uncommon.

Not sure i like that a 4/4 with situational unblockability costs 5 mana, even though it's not very color intense.

Works well with the hunted series from the origanal ravnica block though.
