Cool Card Design of the Day3/24/2016 - Good merfolk illustrations tend to be harder to come by, so I always tuck them away when I find them. This one, by castaguer93, was more of a mer-jellyfish. You will not be surprised which card I decided to reference in my design.
This is often a bit less powerful than Man-o'-War but the ability to bounce at instant speed, and to do so after blocking—or even after your opponent blocks—will give Woman-o'-War the advantage frequently enough.
