You must mean the White-Blue one. I like that, too, but I'm a little confused about that wording. Will I only draw one card even if I create multiple creatures, or will I draw for each creature? Because that'd make Elspeth pretty darn OP.
I'm liking the black-red god. Pretty punishing on these creatureless control decks. It'd probably be a good sideboard card, for sure, and maybe good enough main in some kind of aggresive strategy.
Yea. Whoops, I meant UW. I'm pretty sure you'll only draw one card, no matter how many creatures come on board. I think it's okay, especially for the control player that plays Elspeth/AEtherling. I think she can work in UWR. Chain to the Rocks and Detention Sphere really help out in making devotion for her, and then when UWR hits their win-con (AEtherling/Elspeth), that'll make enough devotion for a threat, as well as either one of those win-cons adding to you hand via draw advantage.
As for the BR god, geez, making an opponent sac a creature, or lose 2 life, makes a ticking clock on Aggro or Control. The decks I can see it not being useful though are those Mid-Range Mono-Blue or Mono-Black, because they have enough cannon-fodder to feed him, as well as having that draw ability to keep them fueling.
Yeah, I thought so. It's still looks like a good card, I'm not denying it. Drawing extra cards is always good. Also, a bunch of control cards are permanents, espeically in Esper and RWU, since those colors play a bunch of Planeswalkers and D-spheres (add Chained to the Rocks in RWU, which is super awesome), so that god could even be active as a threat.
Yeah, it's why I'm assuming for now that it'd probably be more sideboard. When it's good, it's great, when it's not, it's kinda meh. I think I still wanna run it, so I can have an excuse to play Erebos in the maindeck of a midrange/controlling RB deck. Build your own Sulfuric Vortex, wreck control.
EDIT: I just realized now that the White-Blue god says "each upkeep". That just jumped it up for me. That seems really good.
I'm also really happy I saw this card:
Weeeeeee~ New, better Infest! That'a a nice thing I'll probably need for the Grixis deck I've been wanting to make.
