Title: Thundermaw hellkite
Post by: Slenderbro on June 04, 2013, 10:11:04 PM
This is gonna sound really dumb, but what is so good about  {Thundermaw Hellkite} that it has to be ~16$?
Personally what i see is a situational card to be sideboarded in like a  {Gruul Charm} would be. Can someone explain a little?

I would say no, just because its rotating in like 3 weeks.
Rotation isn't until October.

I would say no, just because its rotating in like 3 weeks.  If you could borrow some, I would sideboard them, and at the first sign of reasonable flying, throw all 4 in, because its a crappy card for just a 5/5 flying haste.

Lunacy! If he was just a 5/5 flyer with haste, he would be sweet. His one damage and tap effect is icing on the cake.

I agree with mike, thundermaw works!  I have played games where the opponent wasn't playing flying, and this killed them every time.  For those wondering, Esper control, and it was a borrowed deck. (I have no money :))

Exactly. Thundermaw can be pretty crazy

Shut up you guys. He's rubbish.
However, I'll help you out and buy them off you for $1 each. $3 for foils.

He's bad in jund , jund decks are supposed
To be more control, not hasty leaving yourself

What other card in standard is a 5 cmc for 5/5?
None.
Evasion, haste, with the added effect makes him very hard to deal with.

Jund decks just need red, green, and black.

That's it. You can have whatever play style or deck type you what and call it Jund as long as it has red, green, and black.

You can run whatever you feel like running. Limiting yourself to using only what the pros use is a facet of netdecking, and that's totally unnecessary ;). I personally ran Jund hasty dealies for a while, and it ran just fine!
