[Aztec]Poison dude with evasion, sort of

[rvs]

A simple guy: he can make your guys not want to block him. I figured the ability was red, so I gave it a red activation cost on a green creature. Should it be red on a black creature? Can I just make the ability green (since usually, green works the other way around!)

too bland? Or too balanced? or too boring?

Talk to me people!

I can't speak for everybody, but I, at least, have grown cold on the poison theme.

This is boring, poison is too unbalanced and make the game too difficult...

I think that evasion Poison creatures could be a problem and it is very hard to balance them. If poison isn't very bad it is too good.

When I was (mis)reading your intro I imagined a Green creature that somehow poisoned you IF you blocked it.

I appreciate that is somewhat off-topic but is novel enough that I wanted to share it with you.

That is actually a pretty cool idea dandan.
