First stab at jumping spider

templating

does this need flash as well?

Nothing wrong with this as a creature (actually worse than Deadly Recluse unless Lurked) but the uncommon Lurker could really do with being a reasonably sized creature - the spot for a cheap Lurker has already gone to the common one. Plus it would be nice if the Lurking costs went 1-2-3 through common-uncommon-rare (for no other reason than aesthetics to be honest!)

How about that?

Isn't this just way too good? As far as I know the only fliers that can kill this are Portentious Shrike and Ghastlord - and even they trade with it! There aren't even that many ground attackers that can trade with this!

Those issues were never raised regarding Brawling Spider :-)

Brawling Spider didn't have Deathtouch!

If Lurking is going this would be a great Portent guy

Making Portent instead of Lurking

Gets my vote for a green uncommon slot

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-29 12:21:53

I guess on reflection with the number of available green 3-drops and with a Reach creature and flier kill spell at common this can probably be dropped.
