Bitter Turmoil - Complete Spoiler: Blue

Sphinx Lord.  Aggressively costed for what it
does.  Makes the Sphinx tribe a viable option.

Limited Hero.  Not too impressive otherwise.
Would be a great powerful equipment holder
should any exist in this world.

Top Tier common.  So few common flyers to
compete with this.  Also will be a roleplayer
in the Sphinx deck.

Eh?  I guess its a sideboard option.  Anti-bomb
in limited.

Backbreaking advantage on top of a huge body
thats hard to stop.  Plus, its a sphinx?!? 
Great value here.

Seems useless, but might see some sideboard play
if it finds some targets.  Horrid in limited.

Maybe a bit underpowered, but the value of
those options are worth it.  One of the few
"Anti-Purple" cards.

Pretty insane in the Sphinx deck as well as limited.

Lots of mana.  I feel this guy is awesome at controlling
the game, but he can't wrap it up on his own.  Use
him as a ulitilty, not as a main focus.

OP.  Common?  What was I smoking?  This guy
is going to own limited.  Not many bodies that
large in the common bracket to beat over it, plus
if he loses defender then he is a game winner.

Eh.  One of those fun cards that really isnt
going to win you the game.  But its fun.

Reprint.  Was sick back in the day.

Reprint.

Like Rewind?  Like Concentrate?  Have both!

6 toughness is really large.  The most relevant effect
of the dweller cycle so its almost titan like that even
if they kill her you still get the 'loot' effect.

Seems good with instant speed card draw.
Plays well with his leader...

This dude is absurd.  So I'm gonna get a 4/4 for 6. 
Meh.  But its flash, so that helps, right?
Oh crap, I get to counter a spell with it too?
And wait, now I get to put that Grave Titan I
countered into play under my control?  And
basically you can't play anything that doesnt kill this guy
for the rest of the game? 
Seems Good.
