Vote: Komandon, shullz



IIW: Land Creature from original duallands, shock lands, or basic lands.

PS: I interpreted the last topic as Dog or Cat. And Laika is about a dog which experienced cat-astrophic failure. So technically one form of cat is on the card, How much leeway is there with these topics?
