Emmara is crap but a nice throwback to sets like Legends

The 4 mana Lightning Helix isn't that bad. 4 damage is nothing to scoff at. It's not an undercosted gem like Lightning Helix but I also don't think this version is totally useless.

Tandris is fairly useless.

Helix is relevant with all the 4-toughness creatures making appearances.

New Lightning Helix looks pretty solid. Eight point life swings are quite nice.

Tandris is not only useless, but is far and away beyond me as far as flavor. How does a lanky little elf female get 5/7 exactly? Is she made of trees? o.x I hate it when wizards does that.

New lightning helix looks pretty damn good to me honestly.

With all the 4 toughness good-dudes I like seeing the new helix. Either way you're tapping 4 mana to kill something if OG helix was reprinted.
Eric, Ren and Jensen were activists
Heads loaded with theory, their hearts are filled with passion
Shared the same left wing politics
Liked the same music, they were part of the protest movement
Now, Anna presented herself as a feminist
Studied the way they talked and dressed
Fashioned herself an anarchist
Eric fell in love with Anna at the meeting of the crime think conference
He didn't know it but Anna was an FBI informant

It is an 8 point life-swing in a race anyway, which is pretty crazy.

The Helix is okay for the dome potential, but 4 mana is still pretty meh. I don't expect it to see a lot of play, but probably a little.
