Blasphemous Act's best friend and Malignus' worst enemy. This card also makes Double Strike and First Strike on your opponents' creatures a bad idea. For them at least. Now, it looks like this card is only a 1/1 for 5, but I like to think of it like this: it's either going to be a damage sponge and powerhouse or it's a 5-mana mini-Extortion (where you pick either a kill spell or a counter spell). And, it's honestly not that bad for either option. Not great, but not that bad.

Pros: Damage sponge, late-game powerhouse

Cons: 1/1 for 5

Rating: 3.5/5

Also: Happy 250th post everyone :)
