Jeleva

Lets talk EDH with the next "Commander" wave coming it seems the theme is for more commander rules themed cards.  Each time your commander is returned to the command zone it cost 2 more to cast then 4 more then so on.  This is where the new X ability comes in handy.  The Color combo for Jeleva seems just sweet. Grixis and Unfair spells are best friends of the meanest sorts.  Also the best part about her, is that she hits all player, which EDH isn't usually 1v1 so this is brutal.  And all you have to do to cast one of AT LEAST  8 probable Instants or sorceries  is attack.  And at that shes in the air.  Lets do an example say Turn four she comes out and 5 players Exile 4 cards.  That's 20 cards.  Not only is this a chance to rid them of their combo pieces but it can also cast something not at all meant for early game play or anywhere near your colors want an example?  How about turn four she comes out and hits the cards a Pox,  a Wrath of God, a Worldly Tutor and a Demonic Tutor. Can you even think of the possibility of just ruining everyones day.  And if she dies, good.  Good now you can cast her for six make everyone Hit Six cards and just protect her until she can swing and do her job.  And if she does her job multiple times I could see a winner at your table playing a new Grixis card and having tons of fun with it.  Good job on the design Wizards.
