what do u think of the new preview card?

Ohran Viper 1GG
Snow Creature-Snake
Whenever Ohran Viper deals damage to a creature, destroy that creature at end of combat.

Whenever Ohran Viper deals combat damage to a player, you may draw a card.

1/3

ehhh. I don't think it should be a rare. 3 cc for a Toned-downed Stinkweed Imp with a half-a-Lure on it. Not great

Kinda Cute, well 3 mana for one dmg sounds unkool
but if it deals damage you take a draw
sounds better, but add it that it can be a creture killer no matter what.

Nice Card, but almost unusable for a 3colored deck.

Three of these go in my UG snake deck right away, I just need to know if I pull out Coiling Oracle, or Plaxmanta

this card i probaly the best card ive seen fron coldsnap

that being said it wont see play, if it was a 1/4 it would be good, but the difference between 3 and 4 toughness in this format is very important

This is a great card.

Think Shadowmage Infiltrator, but only one color, and in a color that rarely gets card advantage like this, and with simply a different kind of evasion.

I expect to see this in Constructed.

hmm, isnt it better then ophidion in mono green? isnt it just better then ophidion generally? still not for aggro and the UBG aggro want hyppi 2/2 dmgs draw and opp dis bfr it, and besides cloak not very good but still potenial + it's a snake which is always good XD

SNAKES ON A PLANE!!

a beautiful addition to the snakes deck and an actually worthwhile attempt at green card advantage. Applause to R&D. Remains to be seen whether it is viable in Tier 1/2 standard though... I guess we'll find out when the set's out.

the problem with this card is that its in green. Which has no real ways to protect it from removal, or does it have the cards to make it able to get through with an attack. Also its 3 toughness makes it very vulnerable.

everyone who doesn't like it can sell me their copies for $2 each, ok?

seriously, it's bad because it's not invincible and it's green?!?! wtf guys, this card is great and will see competitive play.

amazing card...i'm going to venture to guess and say this card will single handedly revive u/g tempo and slide it up the tiers.
