Damn, my grandpa's got some explaining to do; he should have just pulled his 4-year-old self up by his Bootstrappen and got tf out of Berlin.

I'm not shocked they're doing it, I'm just shocked they didn't use it to bring back polygamy too

It's one of my friend's favorite cards, the number of 1v1 games I've practically lost because of them playing it turn 1 is, well, probably less than I actually think, but it's memorable when it happens. The whole game becomes "kill Serra Ascendant"
