    4 for a 6/6 sounds great. Now I have to wonder how good Lifelink is going to be for the other guys creatures....

    Giving the opponent free life for blocking doesn't seem like the greatest idea to me. As always I could be wrong..

    Meaning you have to splash green. There is nothing that appeals to me about this guy that STAYS completely Orzhov...

    It's not designed for constructed at all. That would be Desecration Demon's job.

    Yeah, I can imagine playing this in limited. Probably not draft, but in sealed I don't see why not.

    Most of the time he's just a 6/6 defender that can attack if their board is open, tbh. Which seems fine to me. And how often will they really want to sac a creature for life?

    He just helps Extort by being a big fat blocker.

    Interesting design, and I won't judge until I see it in action.

    Very creative.

    Basically what Chris said, except reverse the defensive portion.

    It's a 6/6 that changes blocking considerations based on how they (the opponents) want to nullify damage.
