Not a card but an artwork revealed. Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, the She-Knight we've been seeing in flavour texts.

Edit: Here she is, {Elite Vanguard}s MUCH cooler and tougher big sister: http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxp5dv60Fx1r68zaeo1_400.jpg

Translation:

Everwolf
Creature - Wolf
Intimidate
Other Wolf and Werewolf creatures you control get +1/+1.
Werewolves you control can’t transform.
2/2

Not a R/G fan, but cool anyway. Not sure about the draw back.

Correction:  Non-human Werewolves can't transform.  All upside!

I have a personal grudge against that card.
HAHA!!! How come!

It's just not fun. First of all, it's a repeatable stealing effect, which isn't fun for your opponent. It only works if you control more creatures, which usually means you'll be winning already. If your opponent has more creatures then you, then you're grossly overpaying for a 1/1.

tl;dr: It's not fun.

Yea but expensive casting cost and easy to kill

*someone didn't read my Daily Combo. 😉*

it's a puzzle piece.  Players like me take one look at it and say "I need to figure out how to abuse that card!"

I just hate repeated stealing. It's a griefer card. Fun for you, not fun for opponents.
