Mikaeus, the Lunarch - xW Legendary Creature - Human Cleric [?]
Mikaeus, the Lunarch enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it.
:symtap:: Put a +1/+1 counter on Mikaeus.
:symtap:, Remove a +1/+1 counter from Mikaeus: Put a +1/+1 counter on each other creature you control.
The lord of all lords. A very interesting design and a very decent Commander as well. Not quite as exciting as the Sword of Body and Mind reveal, but nice nonetheless.
EDIT: Someone made a good point about Ranger of Eos. I guess this will make my Kemba EDH.....Ranger is such a good card for mono white.

I really don't see what the big deal is about this guy. He just seems like another crappy hyrda remake. His pump ability is slow and taps him. His anthem ability is slow, taps him, and shrinks him. I'd honestly just prefer the original Ajani over this. ~shrugs~
I haven't decided how I feel about this. At smaller costs, it will probably be outclassed by Honor the Pure (Unless there are +1/+1 or -1/-1 counter effects in Innistrad). At higher costs, you might rather attack than tap it to pump your creatures. The best part of this is probably that this can either pump up your creatures, or be fat, or both, and while it's not fantastic at either, either option will be available to you.
Am I the only one who looks at his outfit and wonder "what the hell?" I mean talk about an impractical thing to wear. I expect one of those sleeves to catch on fire with all those candles about. It's a shame, but I really can't get any feel for the humans looking at him. But I guess looking at him and the red cultist makes me think the humans of this world really like their outfits with lots of flowing fabric.

I agree. This doesn't really give us many clues regarding Innistrad. But then, neither did Sword of Body and Mind.
Yet another post misusing the term "broken"... this will not break the format at all. Even with Doubling Season, it's just another pretty solid card. Good, but not format-warping.
I dont know if anyone who has posted plays casual, but in a WW proliferate deck using clasps and engines as the proliferate engine, this guy could get very scary very fast once you drop him for 3 mana turn 3 and then start taping and proliferating.
I heat +2/+2 comcumlitive every turn is pretty good, especially when paired with thoptors and meminites
Nothing in this game is degenerate or completely dominant. They haven't banned anything in standard in a long, long time. Hell they should have banned affinity right away, but they didn't until boxed sales collapsed too. Hasbro had to come in and fire people.
I'll enjoy watching all the whiners eat crow monday.
i also thought that that robe was dangerously close to the fire... but the dude doesn´t seem to care too much.
I don´t think filling the last slot of FTVL with this card was a good idea... the title of this from the vault reads "the most powerful legends" or something like that, i dont think we´ve seen this guy going to work in the battlefield long enough...

All FTV cards are marked mythic, it does not mean he will be a mythic in INN.

Really cool card all around. A late game bomb or a lord that can even accommodate the fastest of aggro strategies. Very versatile!

Except two other From the Vault cards Hellkite Overlord and Sword of Body and Mind were both mythics in their debut set. So yes, this will be mythic.
Who's eating crow?
