My Vampire Nighthawk was already good but now it's SO GOOD WOW. Many abilities like lifelink scale with creature size, so cloning with Quicksilver Gargantuan is often a Clone++, which is sweet. Clonelet 1/1 plays with similar space, but to the opposite effect. Not to say it isn't fun or cool, but the possibilities created are fewer. It's still a cool task for a Johnny to try to find the cards that are actually *better* as a 1/1 clone.<br /><br />I agree it would be more fun as a 2/2 clone, but the most natural space for it is probably as a 3/3 clone with the same costing as the original Clone. It opens up a little bit more scaling potential and feels cool as a Clone callback.<br /><br />Also, Clonelet 1/1 makes me think of cloning primarily to get ETB effects, and makes me want a Clone with Evoke.Sagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02090253014943762842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-62580848230889642352018-04-30T18:20:02.774-04:002018-04-30T18:20:02.774-04:00I think there is a Hearthstone card that summons a...I think there is a Hearthstone card that summons a 1/1 copy, but what makes it cool is that it's a creature - a bard - that summons a 1/1 copy of a creature in your deck. He's telling YOUR story and literally bringing it to life!<br /><br />I like the concept of the Clonelet cards, but they feel a little dry.
