Arcades, the Strategist

Creatures' Power and Toughness

Hi Mark, given that green is 4th in toughness higher than power creatures, why are so many cards like Assault Formation and Arcades, the Strategist at least part green? On a similar note, why is white 1st in such cards if it's supposed to be a particularly aggressive color? (PS, Crimson Vow looks really cool, good job!)

Fourth just means other colors have more. White has two parts, one very aggressive and one very defensive.

Defender-Based Generals

Hi Mark. I love seeing defender/toughness based generals like Doran and now Arcades, the Strategist, but I am a bit sad that neither are red, the colour which has a fairly big defenders-matter creature (Vent Sentinel). Could I add the request for a red-containing commander?

Red has the lowest overall toughness so it’s an odd fit for red.
