Will-o'-the-Wisp
I don't even know what to say here. This card
was great in the beginning. And I mean like way
back in the beginning of Magic. I'm talkin' like
year two or three. Unfortunately, we are much
better at Magic now as a community. That's bad
news for the WotW. It is a cheap regenerator.
That's always neat. However, it doesn't fill
much of a need or void for any particular deck
type or color. And it's a small creature at
that. So I wouldn't worry too much about this
card. It's neat for limited play, but not much
else I'd imagine.

Will-o'-the-Wisp
Absolute poo. Yes, it is a small creature with
regeneration, but why would you waste slots in
your deck playing a card that does absolutely
nothing? There is no reason for this card to see
play; if you are thinking of putting it in your
deck, please don't. Think of the children. You
know, the ones who will be looking at your deck
and copying it. They'll think it is good, and
then a bunch of people would have a bad card in
their decks. So, for the sake of Magic as a
whole, please don't play Will-o'-the-Wisp. In
any format.

Will-'O-The-Wisp
An interesting thing to bring back for Black.
Will could be a good add if you were trying to
set something up and you need something to hold
off any creature, including flyers in the
meantime. That being said, it's probably better
suited to casual play where you have something
elaborate to pull off.
In limited, it's not a horrible add to a black
deck, though I can think of a few things I'd
much rather see for my build. Still, it's good
filler if nothing else.
