Hmmm either a combo of hex proof and trample. I run green.....ALOT! And my friends run black, blue, red....ALOT!  So trying to keep my fatties alive is always a concern. I like combining hexproof and totem armor. Nothing like really making anything they do useless besides blocking. Great feeling. 😝

Off the top of my head {Geist of saint Traft} he is just ridiculous.  Then comes {hero of bladehold} .... I mean come on, she has battle cry and pumps out 2 attacking 1/1s ..... yes pls!!!!!

Best static ability {Phyrexian Obliterator} hands down he wins give him his 🏆 and everyone else get in line behind him and fight for second place.

Horsemanship


Kidding, I'm a big fan hexproof obviously.
Love double strike.
First strike with deathtouch is boss!

{vampire Nocturnus} is awesome too

{Snapcaster Mage} deserves some cred

Can't forget {mother of runes} AKA Mom

{silverblade paladin} and {champion of parish} are good friends that understand the importance of teamwork ;)

{demigod of revenge} go ahead and counter him pls, his trigger will return him anyway since it is not an ETB trigger ...... it triggers when cast ;)

{tarmogoyf} yea there is a reason he cost so damn much

{stoneforge mystic} yes I would like a turn 3 un-counterable {Batterskull}

{shivan dragon} and {force of nature} cuz they are old school beaters


I may have strayed off a bit 😝

They changed the ruling on demigod for just that situation. When you counter him it is assumed that counter him after his ability is on the stack.

{Teferi, Mage of Zalfir}
You cant counter my stuff and I can flash in creatures? YES PLEASE!

If we are not talking specific abilities then I would choose Hexproof

Just cast {Undying Evil} on a persist creature. How nutty.

My favorite keyword ability might have to be first strike/double strike. It changes the whole board when on the field, and is perfect for someone like me who loves aggressive combat.

Favorite random card with an ability? Hmm.. Too many to pick from, but {Novablast Wurm} comes to mind. Booooom!

Just like undying, except comes into play with -1-1 counter on it. {kitchen finks}
