creat card only thing i have to say is with the 2 3 4 don't know how to count thing on top you don't count the card its for the others its not 20 cards get +20/+20 they get +19/+19 because you don't count the card getting boosted its receives a boost for the OTHER cards sharing one or more type. if you have a good token deck like i do this is great at crushing multiple oppents in multiplayer games when you get 40 myr tokens out cause your team mate has a defence deck you can take more than a few out. Get Mirrorworks with this so for 2 mana and if you have two mirrorworks out you can triple its effect nothing like giving a 10 tokens +27/+27

This is an amazing card, and to the guy above, the cards aren't supposed to have awesome art, sure, good art draws players in, but in the end it's all about effectiveness, and this card has that down to a tee, They have this card in the Slivers deck, and if you get it out it's ALMOST a guaranteed win unless they're using a deck with all matching creature types... This card compliments my dragon deck very well, with all my little Dragon Whelps to my Hellkites and Shivans and I'm rather fond on my Scourge of Kher Ridges personally :D

if you look closely you see "Combine with arcbounds, myrs, and thopters."

Won a tribal tournament with this using my Myr Deck. Also is fun in my Snake Deck, Goblin Deck, Spirit Deck, Elf Deck, etc. I love playing tribal decks and this one really helps, especially against non tribal decks. Can anyone picture this in an Ally or Vampire deck?

my friend had this and a militias pride and he had like 10 1/1s and they all went to like 10 10s and he did 100 damage.

Amazing card. I once had one out, and both me and my opponent were playing with elf decks. Once we both got out our Ambush Commanders, it was mayhem. THIS CARD RULES!

  -- By Ian Mertz from Princeton, NJ USA on July 19, 2009

Card would be perfect if it said creatures you control. Using this card against another creature type deck would only help both of you. Loophole found but still great card

  -- By Mark Kutz from MO, USA on March 16, 2009

Its lovely in any deck that has a theme... goblins, elves, snakes, elephants, dragons etc etc...

  -- By Lennart Eriksson from Ostersund, Sweden on March 13, 2009

this card kicks put it in a saproling/treefolk deck with doubling season, timber protector, life and limb, verdant force,and someverdant embrace, oh and just for good measure put in a couple of spidersilk armor and you'll be practically unkillable

  -- By johnathon from McCall on February 15, 2008

use with Kami Reborn ddeck, or any other deck with honden of nights web. Snake basket is also good

  -- By Saints Fan from New Orleans,LA on November 08, 2006

a very good card in any creature themed deck. i have gotten over 100 saprolings out before in my deck, and this card makes them unstoppable. very good!

  -- By papwich from CA on August 27, 2006

Exellent card in my elf deck! If I have 5 forests, ambush commander, heedless one, coat of arms and couple of elves they can get +10/+10 or even more.

lol, god you guys really arent seeing the true potential of this card. Granted I dont play in tournaments I only play for fun, but I put this beauty in my all color sliver deck.............OWCH. Ive thrown a 97,000/12 sliver every turn at my opponants before with the aid of this and magma sliver ;-)

You put 4 of these in a Relentless Rats deck and it really works for it. This is a great card and isn't that expensive.

  -- By Anonymous from Nowheresville on May 04, 2005

this card is just plain good in a goblin deck or any other fast creature decks

Coat of Arms is a must in any mono creature deck. It beefs up ur creatures so much. With my angel deck they become so stupidly big its hard 4 anyone to stop them.

I love this card. I had it but I trade it for Scion of Darkness. I was totally inexperienced.

  -- By Anonymous from Corfu on August 13, 2004

this card has some great potential. . i use 2 of these in my soldier deck and they are a great help. the only annoyance I have is that while I think it is really good, it's not perfect.

  -- By Pegasus from Wayland, MA USA on June 26, 2004

coat of arms works perfectly with decks that revolve around a creature type, which many of the good ones do. So this card is great

  -- By me from usa on March 19, 2004

This is an awsome card! Any creature deck with a common type of creature should have this card in it. It is especially awsome for small creatures and lots of them so that they become big when you play it. It works perfectly in my elf deck, which has never been beaten!

  -- By Anonymous from My computer on October 08, 2003

Jeebus, this card is expensive. I blame the recent tribal emphasis in such blocks as Legions... but four of these cards are a must for any kind of tribal deck, alas!

  -- By ALW2003 from Luton, UK on September 12, 2003

hink of this, you play 4 squirrel nest's( 1G Enchant land: Tap put a 1/1 squirrel token into play) then tap them you get 4 4/4 squirrles you tap them again 8 8/8 squirrels then 12 12/12. In three turns you have 12 12/12!

Sliver Queen, mana echoes and this will rule all in a deck.

  -- By Anonymous from Ledyard, Ct USA on February 09, 2003

That card's picture is terrible atleast the exodus one has a COAT OF ARMS, thats one reason why 7th edition is terrible, but on the other hand its still a coat of arms but ughhhh

  -- By from Denver, CO USA on December 18, 2002

use a snake basket... and conspiracy...

  -- By Anonymous from mi on October 29, 2002

the cost isn't such a drawback in an elf deck. and you just need an elvish champion, the dude who makes elves untargetable (can never remember his name), a unnatural selection a land-changing thing and ELVES. u are unbeatable. one of their land is a forest - you can't target any of my stuff - i pound you for buckets of damage. Repeat. What really makes this card stupidly good is the already goodness of mono-type creature decks, particularly with the champions/kings/et al.

  -- By Purple Switch from UK on June 07, 2002

This card is great in my creature token deck although theres 3 types its still kicks ass

  -- By Anonymous from New York,New York USA on April 11, 2002

i give it 5 stars why? Because it is a very useful card in my squirrel deck when you have over 20 squirrel creats from squirrel nests, and squirrel wrangler it's like having 20 squirrel mobs out in play an then you just stomp your enemy. And the 5 casting cost is not a huge drawback when your playing with cradels and emissary.

  -- By Merlin from on March 16, 2002

This is probably the best card you can put into a deck with a theme similar to a Goblin or Merfolk deck because all of your creatures will grow huge.

  -- By Hani Ebeid from Denton, Texas on June 04, 2001

This card is great it makes my goblin deck almost unbeatable, the draw back of it helping your opponents creatues also is okay if you build a deck to accomadate this awsome ability.
