Herald Of Torment

I can't ever see myself playing less than three of him in any black standard deck I make for the next year. Herald is just so damn good. As a three drop he is a more than competent creature that can beat in the air early and hard, but where this card truly comes alive is being bestowed. Yes five mana is a lot, but if he doesn't stick you still have a 3/3 in the air. When he does get attached uncontested, he just makes your life easy. Against any monster based strategy he can put a useless bear in the air to close out a game against their blockers on the ground. His current home for me is in my B/W extort deck. A Tithe Drinker or Alms Beast becomes an incredibly deadly finisher once in the air.
