Very smart and very vengeful. Grabbing one of its many tails could result in a 1,000-year curse.

Because Silent Lab exists, I have a feeling this will become a staple of VirGen decks. Plus, being able to stop Fighting Stadium, Rough Seas and Dimension Valley is really handy.

Even outside modified it’s a pretty great card. Not needing to be active is pretty rare for lock abilities these days.
Dark Kira
Modified actually means “Constructed” (in MtG terms), so you are probably talking about Standard?
EverPhoenix
Modified is Constructed? I thought it was Standard…
Yeah that is what I meant. It’s a nice card in all formats barring competitive Unlimited, which no one plays anyway.
Dark Kira
It was if I’m not mistaken, but they changed it to Standard when they added Expanded as a format.
But I agree, this card is probably going to be at least a lot of fun in casual Unlimited, and it may even be good in U150 as a competitive lock strategy. One thing I’m defintely going to try is this + the new Stadium that adds 3 bench slots.
EverPhoenix
That would go great with pichu from hs. I’m going to use the ninetales to lock in a mirage stadium, and curse my opponent with bad luck.

Such a great ability… I need it to come back!
