Arachne! Could have been a legendary green Tuktuk the Explorer, but not complaining.

Compare Centaur's Herald? I think I like this just a smidge more.

Is this Arachne? Or maybe...this is the Lady of Videns? (Two blocks late, but these things happen when you're cooped up in a castle)

"Let me show you the true meaning of extreme underwater basket weaving."
*dies*

Seriously, though, this lady might have a bit of an unhealthy attachment to her "craft."

Font of the spider.

Great in limited for instant-speed constellation triggers.

very solid common, upgrades itself, tiggering both death effects and constellation.
Use with Dictate of Erebos

The flavor text does not make sense. "You think your weaving as beautiful as mine?". Isn't there missing an "is" between 'weaving' and 'as', or did they mean it to be "You think you're weaving as beautiful as me?". Either way, I'm astounded that they don't put more effort into at least spell-checking the cards they make.

@GreenOlives: The flavor text may seem cumbersome, but it's grammatically correct. "You think your weaving as beautiful as mine?", the "as beautiful as mine" portion acts as a modifier to the subject "your weaving", like an adjective to a noun.

DEFINITELY a reference to Arachne. The flavour text almost feels like something that Athena could have said when she turned her into the first spider.

I'm going to assume she gets eaten by the spider.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Strength from the Fallen yet. This card fits so freaking well with it, even adding to the graveyard before the effect goes off.

This card was tailor-made for graveyarding and constellation tripping. You get a chump blocker, sac it to fill the graveyard, but still keep (better) creature presence that also triggers abilities.

Good card, albeit very circumstantially good, but that's alright for a common.

Had an excellent go at a draft, comboing this with Daring Thief. Being able to trade a 1/3 token for any card labeled with creature OR enchantment is almost always a favorable trade.
Other than that, though, I find this to be a decent cheap blocker, once the token comes out.
