Much like Hex, that limits the card a little more than you would like at times
When it enters play I can search for a card with mana value less than or equal to my devotion to Black, reveal it, put it into my hand, shuffle my library, and then lose 3 life for my trouble
It's certainly not the best Zombie token generator -- compared to a classic Army of the Damned, you'd need to spend 20 mana to get 13 zombies off this, whereas Army is only 8 or 10 mana -- but being stapled on to a Zombie creature is tantalizing
Boasting rather disturbing artwork from original Magic art director Jesper Myrfors (Goblin would become a little more cuddly as the years went on), this Goblin-boosting creature remains a useful member of the 99 in Goblin-themed Commander decks (check out the best Goblin cards for Commander), but I would suggest not paying $1,000 for an Alpha copy when you get an Anthologies printing for about four bucks
Arclight Phoenix When people see Arclight Phoenix, some might think: Hey, its cute when it goes off, in Magical Christmas Land. In reality, its way easier to bin and bring back multiple Arclight Phoenix in a turn: You just need some cantrips and cards that draw and discard, like Faithless Looting or Chart a Course
The abilities tagged on that monstrosity are too good and it will end the game quickly
