(In my mind, you don't give the knight token the bad advice personally. Why would it listen to you? It knows you're the enemy. Rather you use your magic to get a raven to do it or something. Hopefully the stupid knight won't even know the raven wasn't being sincere!)Tommy Occhipintihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495646355536064735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-65627117203438431612015-10-27T22:06:32.476-04:002015-10-27T22:06:32.476-04:00Unsound Encouragement 1UR

I assumed it was going to do the damage to its controller, so they'd have to choose between letting it die or taking the consequences of the decision. I'm not quite sure how strong this is, but I thought even "attack or block if able" was fairly weak.Jack (cartesiandaemon)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08258267965242039995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-9986681023625469502015-10-27T19:27:49.605-04:002015-10-27T19:27:49.605-04:00That does seem very bad.
