As with most cards, there are some drawbacks that help keep the card’s power in check.

Among these classics is Juzam Djinn, a 4 mana 5/5 flyer that set the bar high for the older competitive scene. 'Expect my visit when the darkness comes.'ĭelving deep into Magic: The Gathering’s past, we can find some classic cards that have withstood the test of time. This angel has earned its rightful spot in any angel deck as well as many EDH decks. The Morph mechanic often made players afraid of attacking into unknown cards for fear of getting blown away or running into a creature with powerful keywords. Exalted Angel can easily hit the board as a 2/2 on turn 3 and flip on turn 4 into a 4/5 flying lifelink attacker, a powerful and evasive threat. But with a board full of Morph creatures that can be flipped at any moment for their morph cost, this 3 mana 2/2 becomes much more valuable. Playing this card facedown for 3 mana seems like a waste as it only counts as a 2/2. However, players underestimate the power of Exalted Angel’s Morph ability. Exalted AngelĮxalted Angel initially seems like an unlikely candidate, as it is a 6 drop 4/5 with only a couple of keywords. With this list of 25, I hope to make my case for each spot as we traverse 25 years’ worth of creatures. Yes i know that its something that the class inherited from the UA version of the class with the Shadow Hound ( that finished in the hands of the Shadow sorceror, but actually good and usefull.), but still, it feels tacked on at the last minute.With 25 years’ worth of cards now in print, there are a lot of contenders for the title of “Magic: The Gathering’s Best Creature.” Over the course of Magic’s history, the criteria for this illustrious title has shifted from looking at pure stats to examining abilities and how easily they can be abused. I'd rather had and improved Hexblade curse at lvl 6 that either does more dmg/can be used multiple times, then this weird out of context feature. Hexblade allready has to deal with very narrow features since half of the later one requiring the Hexblade curse to work, even though you can use it only once per short rest and on ONE target at a time.( well till you reach lvl14).

Yeah i get that the vanilla lore of the Hexblade in 5th is that you get your powers from the Shadowfell, so Shadowfell=ghosts, ok, ok, ok.īut mecanicaly?, it doesn't do much for the class, NOT using it, doesn't change anything to how the class works, so.whats the point?.
