And Magic's first Lamia! Doesn't seem to be doing much besides giving Changelings a new type...

The question is will another ever be made...

Lamia tribal!!!
...
Sorry, I'm not getting the feeling either.

Believe it or not, I'm half-expecting Vampiric Spirit to get the Lamia type.

At least Mistform Ultimus has a new creature type in its repertoire.

Ghitu Firebreathing.

One of the creepier black cards in the set.

More on colour HuntingDrake... We have Pharika. You just need to keep the fire burning.

Doesn't look like much of a lamia to me.

Nightmares incoming. Shit.

Definitely need more Lamia seeing as how the Harpies and Sirens were built up.

I like this things ability, but it's just badly placed. At 6 cmc 2 colored, you should really be getting finishers or at least power/toughness that reflects the point of the card. With this much cost, the P/T is under curve, and the ability enters so late that few folks would ever include it. It's Uncommon too, so it should already be better than common cards at cost. Sadly, there are cards that make you discard better (Academy Raider, Ashioks Adept, Liliana's Reaver) and many better black cards of 6 cmc. The only thing I can say for it is there's no better, semi-low rarity, 6 cmc black creature in this set - but you'd probably still be better just using another card, as it's a power that nearly demands a significant part of the deck support it.

Is it just me, or does this remind you of Miley Cyrus?

when Journey into nyx spoilers were coming out, i was building a modern deck that would use waste not once it comes out in July. i was hoping for a black constellation discard. i got it, but not at the mana cost i wanted it at. I was hoping for maybe 4 mana for a 3/2 or something like that? i'm going to run 1 copy of it, but still, i wish it costed less! btw, great in limited.
