i agree, however, not all cards have been leaked so we dont know what it might get. but with aggro growing in popularity it will not be long before a stable control build breaks the mould, and i guarantee it will contain blue. theres 2 roads to take with blue control, either white or black for wrath effects.. but i think with that GW guy, black seems to be the more likley.

Certainly good cards both of them. I doubt the Treefolk will see any constructed play, but it is a definite first pick in Limited. Gaddock Teeg is probably going to see constructed play, but he is not very good in Limited, since there are no non-creature spells in the set.

please shut up. They said they wont print Human Creatures, that's not even near to non-creature spells.

I say this on IRC every time the 2/2 comes up: It's broken, and by far better than Tarmogoyf for type 2. It single handedly nullifies 80% of a control deck's nonland spells. Oh, and spell snare is out, so nothing's stopping it on turn 2 (don't say mana tithe). Backed by Saffi, control will crash to the ground, and the poor players that try to luck out with aggro decks will (unfortunately) have a chance...Good job wotc, print yet another broken 2-drop...don't bother to give control decks anything for the 300th time in a row. Honestly, they're doing this to get more bad players that can only win with aggro decks to play. They figure, "Oh, I have a chance now!" As usual, the drive to make more money than they could possibly need is attempting to kill the metagame.

Yet again, he's infinitely better than tarmogoyf, and anyone that thinks otherwise is wrong. Control had better get something, anything to recover from these ridiculous mindless beatdown cards being printed left and right.

Please dont be stupid. Bad players wont even notice this. That's why they are bad, they will underpower it and understimate it, prefering a bigger trample big ass with a expensive mana cost (for more information read the Timmy section). Ahm, playing Aggro does not mean you are bad. This does not make sense.

Btw, dont think this guy is god. Is good, but there are like 33.333 ways to kill it (black pact, counterspells, burn, combat damage) It just bothers or slows down control decks. But is not an automatic win, for Christ sake!

Edit: I really dont think so is better than Goyf
Edit2: He is very synergic with Saffi and Blinks

Synergistic how? by not dying when you use one of those two cards? He will not counter spells as he comes back into play. Look up meddling mage on gatherer. Wirewood sympiot and coiling oracle/woodelves is a synergy(ie:mini combo).

Using blink or Saffi on Teeg is just like using it on any other fucking creature. MTG.com needs to have a section for magic jargon.
