At the beginning of your combat phase, you may put a -1/-1 counter on any number of creatures you control, then sacrifice all creatures you control without a -1/-1 counter on them.

: Target creature you control gains Undying.

: Target creature you control gains Persist.

I'd like a legendary creature made generic, like before they were notable:

Akki Lavarunner  ^Flip, Kitsune Mystic  ^Flip, Cunning Bandit  ^Flip, Budoka Pupil  ^Flip, Bushi Tenderfoot  ^Flip, Callow Jushi  ^Flip, Hired Muscle  ^Flip, etc. but not necessarily a transforming card. Disruptive Student and Hanweir, the Writhing Township from Hanweir Battlements+Hanweir Garrison are also cool possibilities, any other ideas I'm eager to see!

Thanks dude appreciate the comments! I was running Elder Pine of Jukai but decided to take it out as the Loam Dweller and Petalmane Baku seemed like enough ramp, I see how the combination of the Elder Pine of Jukai and Loam Dweller would be insane for mana ramp though!! Was also running Sekki, Seasons' Guide hes a really cool and strong card, replaced him with Kodama of the Centre Tree but may switch him back in...Unfortunately I dont think Kodama of the centre tree could soul shift Budoka Pupil as once he was in graveyard he would no longer be a spirit if he had flipped during the game, i assume he would return to his base type once in the yard, nice thought though ill have to look it up clarify

Lets focuson what really matteres:

There are 654 legendary creatues and the list only has 620!

Even when you account for banned commanders it's clear that some have been Neglected!

Akki Lavarunner / Tok-Tok, Volcano Born Check out the Oracle text here. There is absolutely nothing that needed to be changed which can only mean WotC wanted people to refer to this card as an object based on the legendary half.

Cunning Bandit / Azamuki, Treachery Incarnate Same thing as Akki Lavarunner.

Budoka Gardener / Dokai, Weaver of Life

Budoka Pupil / Ichiga, Who Topples Oaks

I know all about the whole "the unflipped card has to be blah blah blah" arguement but again check out the pages. The "Oracle" text is the exact same as the "printed" text only they just use half of the card for the oracle text. They treat the card as if the unflipped portion doesn't exist no matter which half of the card you navigate to in the DB. Furthermore they give the "flipped" part a mana cost so that you can cast it directly.

The cards still suck but hey it's something.
