Air Elemental Blue Card in Magic the Gathering

Video Transcript

"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village. And today, we'll be discussing the blue cards from the blue block of Magic: The Gathering. Now, we're going to talk about Air Elemental. It's an elemental card. It's uncommon, as you see over here. It's from the basic set from 10th edition, as you see by the icon. Here we have--it costs three and two blue, its converted mana cost of five. And, once again, this is an even card because you're getting a 4/4 creature with flying. Once again, 4/4 plus the ability equals five, which is why you have a converted mana cost of five specifically with two blue because it's out of the blue set. He's an air elemental much like the Cloud Elemental, except now this card can block creatures without flying as the cloud elemental did not. Also, we have the flying, which also means he can only be blocked by creatures with flying or creatures with reach. Once again, here, it's a 4/4. So instead of getting the one or the two or even three damage, for the fact that he has flying, he deals four damage every turn if he is not blocked."
