Sphinx of the Steel Wind

what a monster.......is this the biggest lifelink creature EVER? plus its not even a legend? w/ a few colors protection added in for fun, the best part turns out to be it won't tap to attack, and just pumps 12 life a turn out if the situation unfolds the right way for you. Or the opponent is dumb enough to attack, and has no choice! tooooo funny. WHAT AN ANIMAL IN reanimatorrrrr!!

I love this card. When I first got it I thought " :::shrug::: whatever". But I refined my artifact decks earlier into one,got him out and my opponent couldn't do anything. They were playing red/green elemental and this was the only creature card I had for almost the whole game. Yeah I took some damage because they had more creatures than me but they dwindled quickly and I regained all that life and then some.

Cant Bant Charm him, he has pro-green. I run 2 sideboard because this card just laughs at jund and some grixis based decks. But against anything that runs white he gonna get pathed or o-ringed at the first possible chance.

two word: summoning trap

or if you like 3: open the vaults

with all the blighting floating around in standard getting her to your graveyard shouldnt be too hard
