Spitemare Type Issue

New • 26 Nov 2018 • Asked by mgmegadog • 43 Comments

IIRC, the reason Spitemare isn't a horse is because Lorwyn/Shadowmoor elementals look like other creatures, but are JUST elementals. Same reason that Offalsnout isn't a boar.

That’s what we did. I’m not sure it’s the right call.

Do you know why Spitemare isn't a horse?

I do not. It should be flavorwise.

Boros Reckoner's Abilities

New • 26 Jan 2013 • Asked by jaymictheunyielding • 4 Comments

You've stated many times that cards (esp. creatures) should not have abilities that clash with one another, or at least avoid synergy (regenerate and first strike, for example). This was even a question on the GDS2 test, if I'm not mistaken. Why, then, is there Boros Reckoner, a Spitemare that gains first strike?

Every rule has an exception. Remember the Great Designer Search is about the basics and knowing the defaults.
