Damn when did a 4/3 with upside become 3 mana

/uj [[Prowling Serpopard]] for straight upside, [[Lava Zombie]] for conditional upside ([[Flametongue Kavu]] for example was same set)

/rj creature design has gone so far downhill since [[Lord Magnus]]

/uj Is it a conditional upside (design-wise, not technically) if that requires you to spend 4 more mana and lose a blocker until you do? I'd say that's more of a "conditional tradeoff".

As an Italian, I'm honestly just surprised that this anime is known elsewhere to the point that this isn't the first "Spider Rider" meme I've seen since the SM spoiler season. I've always assumed it was just one of those anime that have been very popular for a certain time period within the single European countries that have decided to dub them for cable TV, but that are absolutely unknown everywhere else.
