Okay, sure, fine, but why was it made non-holo? Im afraid I dont know WotCs official explanation for that choice
The deck has a number of mana ramp cards that quickly build up a large amount of mana so that you can cast enormous eldrazi creatures on turn 4-5
This card can be an important strategic point in your matches as a card draw, a discard effect trigger, or removal for a pesky flier
We may not have a LuxChomp deck that will lead us to win states and regionals (heck, if my 5-year-old could make it through a game before getting tired of reading the cards, it would be a milestone), but we have our favorite Pokmon that will not be dethroned by Black and White new comers (no matter how cute the new otter Pokmon is!) I often have questions about the rules - especially since some of the rules have changed with the addition of the new Black and White theme decks
If you can generate some untap synergies, well, have fun
If you do, discard a card
