Abhorrent Overlord - Magic the Gathering

Fly my pretties! Fly!

Hey, Chroma is back! For those too young to remember, chroma was a tagged keyword mechanic from Eventide. They were effects that counted the number of a certain mana symbol among a certain set of cards. Since Eventide was part of Shadowmoor block, it got in on the hybrid madness. And hybrid mana counted as both of its mana symbols, making it play nicely with chroma. This is a much more limited version of chroma, counting only mana symbols among permanents you control. However, among the nine chroma cards, four of them used the version that devotion went with: Heartlash Cinder, Outrage Shaman, Primalcrux, and Springjack Shephered.

I love the idea of Harpy tokens! I know they're just the Theros equivalent of Bat tokens, but it's just so flavorful and fits the setting perfectly. Plus, it adds more Harpy creatures to Magic. Current number of Harpies in Magic? Three. And they weren't even types as Harpies on their printed cards, and none of their cards have been reprinted. Theros seems to be the set centered on resurrecting seldom used creature types.

Other creature types in need of love that would fit perfectly in this set? Chimeras. Manticores. Sirens. (I already know they're getting support from the Planeswalker Guide) Cerberus. (Closest we've seem to have come is Hound of Griselbrand.)
