Lyra of the Equilibrium

Just a quicky I pulled together recently. SLE is almost finished, and should be up here some time next month probably.

I've had this art on a blank card for a while now, but have been unable to come up with a proper way to make it a card. In the end I reached the conclusion that I would try and just keep the same kind of flavor the other cards that Lyra is in. this effect seemed fitting in that regards, and interesting enough. Originally it was in WB, however I quickly scrapped that so i could make this sort of effect. From there I didnt really need to think about it too much, i had a firm idea in my head already, and it was easy to put onto card.

I do like the way the hybrid and non-hybrids mash here, allowing players to use either source of mana to activate abilities freely, but still require both colors to use her. It allows for a slightly less effective (but still effective) usage of her in more colours, but still encourages her to be played where she's supposed to be, in a pure WR deck. The effects she has mingle nicely, giving players a distinct feeling of aggressive vs defensive, and giving them a good game plan for when either is needed, her vigilance means she can play double, and hints at her own potential with other vigilance cards. Overall, she's seems like a lot of fun for a player, and interesting to play with, and against.

I am slightly worried the effect is a tad too powerful. I really didn't want her to cost anymore, or have any less power or toughness. So it was hard to properly tone her down. However, for the most part i believe she isn't too powerful, and at most will show up in casual as a powerful card somewhat akin to a dragon, or some other rare.

Anyway, enjoy!
