Mikaeus, the lunarch.
a legendary white creature in from the vault: legends, as a preview card from innistrad. :)

This card is PERFECT for white weenie decks.... what do you guys think of it?

Very impressive. I'm also very excited for the re-release of Sun Quan, I'd been meaning to make an EDH with him as general for some time now. But if the legends in Innistrad are anything like Mikaeus, than EDH will have some great new options.

This guy is in a word f#$king awesome! In the early game he's an engine to buff your team. In the late this guy can come out like a bad@$$ 5/5 fatty (Considering the average white aggro only runs roughly 20 lands on average, but maybe 22 if it's a white/green machine. He could also be a wincon in white/blue control, but I doubt it since you can cast wurmcoil engine as a 6/6 for six, as opposed to this guy, 5/5 for six, but if you ran shrine of the loyal legions he could easily be overpowered in a countrol build.

OP! That thing is a beast in my circle of friends. Blue/White control?

Freed from the Real would be awesome with that!

You can remove a counter from it, put counters on all your other creatures, then proliferate
