The annual video game release, duels of the planeswalkers. The 2016 edition, called Origins, will be free to play. Wizards' hearthstone??

The game balance is frustrating. You can have a well constructed deck and just get wrecked by somebody just because they have legendaries.

Most legendaries are bad. In fact if this is your outlook on the game watch Kripparian's Hearthstone Pay2Lose video

Link? I'm speaking from experience of winning the game till they drop a legendary turns 6-9 and I lose. Very interested in seeing what I can do about this.

There Ya go

So unconfirmed spoiler:
{hixus, prison warden} 3 {W} {W}
Legendary Creature

Whenever a creature deals combat damage to you, if hixus etb-ed this turn, exile that creature until hixus leaves the battlefield.
Rest of the card is cut off so no p/t.

Thoughts?

Seems like a decent EDH general

Kaylesh

If he like, dies to {lightning bolt}....
Just kidding, but his survivability is pretty much a factor. You don't want to cast this dude just so your opponent can just recycle his etbs and flip up all his morphs right?
If he can survive until your own combat phase, it offers options.

I mean seems bad to me but I just hate paying 5 mana for stuff that isn't card draw lol

Plus Spear of Heliod is similar and it doesn't see play

rarehuntertay

I read somewhere that his P/T will be like  {Keldon Warlord}, where * is equal to the damage you took...

Kaylesh

Agree with llama. Rather pay {G} for a {fog} and then whomp back with all his attackers tapped.

LinkCelestrial

If he prevented the damage we'd be in buisness.
