Reveillark

Yes, there's a combo you can do with it that lets you win instantly by copying it with Body Double, but if you're not playing it for that combo, it's really just a 4/3 flying for 5 with a limited reanimation ability. Or just the reanimation ability for 6. And what are you reanimating if not a combo piece?

Constructed- 3.5
Casual- 4
Limited- 3

Reveillark

One of the few combo cards in the Lorwyn block - and unsurprisingly, it's a creature. Anything that can recur cards from your graveyard is potentially degenerate, and Reveillark can go infinite in a number of ways. And if for some reason that doesn't work out, it's a 4/3 flier! An excellent card for a number of different formats.

Constructed: 4/5
Casual: 4/5
Limited: 4/5

Reveillark

This is the sleeper hit of the set. For 5 mana you geta really useful creature and a 5/3 flyer. This has been the centerpiece of a newly popular combo deck with Protean Hulk and some other good ones. I think this is a great flavorful card. Any card that gives you card advantage which this does is good. Who would not mind getting back a couple weenies back after a wrath or some utility like bottle gnomes. In two color, how about eternal witness.

Constructed: 4
Casual: 5

Reveillark

For those who don't know, Reveillark is part of an infinite combo, which I won't explain here but sure someone else will. The combo is easily disruptable, but Reveillark is still a very strong card on its own as a 4/3 flier demands some action against it, but once it's gone two new creatures replace it, and those 2 creatures usually consists of at least one Mulldrifter.

In casual, the combo is certainly playable, and it's still powerful here.

In limited, a 4/3 flier is already extremely strong. The recursion adds even more to it.

Constructed: 3.5/5
Casual: 3/5
Limited: 4/5
v0rac10u5 Reveilark

It has a whole deck built around it, so I think it has to get a five. Combos very well with Momentary Blink, Venser, Shaper Savant, Riftwing Cloudskate, and Mulldrifter. It is even better in limited where card advantage and evasion are so much harder to find.

- Constructed: 5
It does have its own deck after all...
- Casual: 4
Combo doesn’t make you friends in this format.
- Limited: 5
A big flyer that gets guys back when it dies is going to make the cut every time.
