I so wanna Quicken into a Blinding Flare so this guy survives another turn. Efficient? No. Janky good play? Perhaps.

I really hope to see "blocks each turn if able" again- this is currently the only creature to have it and it's a very interesting drawback.

Maybe try Fog

This will almost never be played normally unless you're desperate for a creature. Bestowing lets it avoid the drawback by attacking right away and even if you don't, blocking and getting your creature killed will let this pop off after combat and avoid the drawback that way.

At bestow rate, this guy is strictly better than Nyxborn Wolf.

I guess you could bestow it on an opponents creature you want to get rid of, force it to block, and then get him back as a creature. But even then it would have to block on your opponent's next turn.

@DaLucaray
You seem you be forgetting Razorgrass Screen
But yeah, fairly rare drawback, and its best use does seem to be to slap on an oppnenets dude, force it to block and die, then swing with it hopefully. I dunno. Bestow was sorta a letdown and this bro is no exception.
