If your area features a lot of creature
decks, this is an effective way of hurting them. It combines well
with bounce cards, such as Mice to Snuffleboxes and Professor Quirrell.
If you're running a lesson denial deck, your opponent may have built
up a good number of critters they are waiting to play. However,
there are enough quality creatureless decks around that I tend to
look for other solutions to the critter problem. Remember that even
if this card doesn't get any creatures, it does get a look into
your opponent's hand for a nice "scouting" report. Make
sure you take full advantage of this and memorize the cards they
have remaining, and adjust your game plan accordingly. I've seen
many people give short shrift to this benefit, because it makes
them feel like they're cheating. But it's not cheating, it's legit.

I absolutely do not like cards with
limited usage. However ones that have a limited usage against creatures
are tolerable as long as they can save the day for you and this
one when it comes down to it really can't. It is a mere annoyance
compared to Riding the Centaur or In the Stands. I does combo nicely
with Mice to Snuffbox or In the Stands, but most of the time when
you play this it is a wild guess to whether you are gonna do some
damage to their creature base or not. I have never really played
this card it takes to many other cards to make it work and I recommend
you don't either.

This card lets you discard all the
creatures in your opponents hand. This works well against Halloween
Feast and even works wonder in conjuction with Quirrell. Yes, I'm
sure my esteem colleagues will point out that this card is useless
if your opponent isn't playing creatures, well I'm willing to bet
that at least 75% of all the decks created have creatures in them,
so its always better to be safe then to be sorry that you included
some creature protection in your deck.

I like this card when you can get
it out early against creature decks; at least I used to. There are
so many better anti-creature cards out there now that it is tough
to see this one take shape these days. But there is a deck type
that should want this card. The denial decks should find room for
a couple of these in their decks. Why? Because they focus on keeping
the CoMC lessons off the table and when they do get one of these
it will hurt a creature player plenty. Also this is a great defensive
card against the Halloween Feast.

This card can come in very handy and
in my belief it is a bit underplayed. Five power comes 2nd-3rd turn
almost every game and you can knock back your opponent's strategy
real quick if they are playing creatures. This is great with Quirrel
or Griphook or against a Halloween Feast. A lot of people tend to
opt for killing creatures as they come into play because this card
can be unstable. Even if your opponent is playing critters, it doesn't
mean they have any in their hand and if you draw this at the wrong
point in the game it can really hurt you. Overall though, if creatures
are a threat to you, consider playing with this card and In The
Stands. That can be a crucial combo if you work it right. Mrs. Norris
is always nice to have out at times like these.

Another BS-Lovable here! A sweet Creature
hater, you might call it. And the name Out of the Woods is perfect
for it. First, you get to look in your opponents hand. What more
could you ask for? How about killing all the creatures in your opponents
hand while your there? A definitely great card to work with against
Creatures. And, I might add, affordable at only 5 of Charms. BS-Lovable
all the way.
