pokemon blastoise ex card value - Blastoise-EX (21/108) - XY Evolutions Water / 180 / Basic Attack 1 Blastoise ex 009/165 - Scarlet

The game sees the shield, uses that alternate effect, and your 3/3 is removed from combat, tapped, and has all damage removed from it

I appreciate that its a scarecrow that interacts with your lands, which fits perfectly with what the creature type often does

I suspect it can find a home in Standard decks, especially with many manlands around

The real comparison is the landed cost and the probability of receiving the correct item in the expected condition

Not having control of your own turns sucks, and Mindslaver isnt even that hard to get back from the graveyard
