[MTG] Birds of Paradise


Recommended Posts

If you don't run it at 3-4 you mightaswell not run it. I only have 2 X_X. Anyways, mana gainers are really good. My green deck has about 11-12 different creatures that produce mana (after that they just clog up the deck). The best part about birds is that, when you're done with it (if that's even possible) it can block almost anything.

Problem is that this cards first impression was in what..Alpha?

Alpha = MTG first set ever...

Yeah is that old...XD

Awesome cards helps a lot of Deck to get quickly into a balance mana curve and also solved color problems of tricolor or penta Decks...

Lotus Cobra is the new and improved version of this card and its better, a 2/1 that can beat face and accelerates your resources much faster then Birds of Paradise can, back then its like if you summon Birds of Paradise, you have to kill it ASAP....but today if you summon a Lotus Cobra, YOU HAVE TO ELIMINATE IT ON THE SPOT!!! NO QUESTIONS! So yeah, Birds of Paradise is a classic, good in vintage/legacy elf decks, Eldrazi, Land Ramp Decks...but it can't come close to Lotus Cobra.

[/quote]I don't think so, but its just a better and faster mana accelerator then Bird of Paradise is, I was just trying to vent out that point.
