How about this for the Rat King as lord:<br /><br />Rat King (Rare)<br />3BB <br />Creature – Rat <br />4/4<br />Other Rat creatures you control get +1/+1.<br />When Rat King leaves the battlefield, put four 1/1 black Rat creature tokens onto the battlefield.<br /><br />It's at the top of the curve, but I think it's a great iteration of Mother Spider from our M13 set. Rats could certainly benefit from this mechanic.Nich Graysonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-28346767824975834712012-07-14T10:16:08.108-04:002012-07-14T10:16:08.108-04:00That first card is best thing here by far.That first card is best thing here by far.Alex Spaldinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03747145070824848773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-31686497524718336862012-07-13T12:00:55.262-04:002012-07-13T12:00:55.262-04:00Swarming Rats could continue the trend of trying t...Swarming Rats could continue the trend of trying to give Black some early turn beats. To, I guess, reinvigorate the color. And it's a self contained combo with itself, so I can see it getting made. The lack of a Rat Lord comes from R&D commitment to focusing on only a few creature types in each color endlessly. It could be part of a micro cycle like the M12 Illusions, I suppose. For the record, I would love to see more Rats in Magic.Nich Graysonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-44167223946602474372012-07-12T18:32:10.682-04:002012-07-12T18:32:10.682-04:00Man, it's criminal that the rat lord isn't...Man, it's criminal that the rat lord isn't an actual Rat King.Tigthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11018253211543720641noreply@blogger.com
