Frosty Little Pixie

I thought I would move out of the Life splinter for a moment (not that I'm not loving everything about it) and talk about one of my favorite cards from the Water splinter in UNTAMED.

Today we are going to look at ICE PIXIES.

I know with so many powerhouse cards in UNTAMED Water to look at, why this little two mana firecracker?

BECAUSE it is a TWO MANA FIRE CRACKER!!!

Now, a disclaimer here, in order to be even remotely serious about rotating these Neverland Reject Fairies you are going to want to get to Level 5 minimum. Have a look:

With 1 Magic 1 Life and Flying ability for two mana at the start she isn't going to get much attention. She has 3 speed which in most formats means you will get one attack in - and on the hopes that your Summoner gives her Magic a boost it isn't bad. But look at that level 5 and you will start to see why this little Pixie can be seriously annoying.

1 Magic, 4 Speed, 1 Shield, 2 Life, Flying, AND Shatter, the new ability which destroys Shield. Add to that the likelihood that the Summoner will make the 2 Magic and you have a serious opening move control shift. Since in most formats, the Magic attack hits the opponent Monster's Life counter subverting their Shield and then with insult to injury the Shield breaks away too!

I really believe that in order to survive two rounds you would want her to be at least a Level 6 which gives her the 3 Life and 1 Shield unless she comes up against a Magic Reflect opponent.

All in all a versatile addition to set a face paced opening to your Water game for a leftover 2 Mana.

Let me know your thoughts and share your ideas for deck-building.
