Insane New Magic: The Gathering Amonkhet Creature Revealed

Wizards of the Coast's Alison Luhrs released a new Amonkhet story today, and it came with a preview of a crazy new from the upcoming Magic: The Gathering set. It's a red-green 3/4 legendary creature card with Flash, Double Strike, Vigilance, Haste, has the ability to give other creatures you control Haste, and has the ability to untap a creature for one white mana. Sounds crazy crazy right? The art by Aleksi Briclot portrays a crazy an insane character, and that's probably because Nicol Bolas corrupted Amonkhet, not create it.

If Saheeli combo decks are still going to be in the Standard meta after Amonkhet's release, I think this card is well-positioned since you can just leave mana open for disruption against the combo and still be able to cast Samut in your opponent's turn. I'm sure a lot of Commander players will also consider using this as a Commander.

Amonkhet, the first set of the Amonkhet block, will be released on April 28. Prerelease events will take place on April 22-23, 2017.
