Video Transcript

"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we're going to be discussing the black color from "Magic: The Gathering". Here we have, and are going to discuss Hornet Harasser. Hornet Harasser is a goblin shaman out of the Lorwyn block. As we see here, it is a common and a very powerful card in your goblin deck because it gets benefits from everything that benefits goblins. And/or you can search him, if you search for a target goblin, i.e. goblin, and it is 2 and 2 black to play to give you a 2/2, which means that you paid an extra one and, since you paid an extra one, you're paying for an ability, and the ability your paying for is that whenever Hornet Harasser is put into a graveyard from play, target creature gets negative two, negative two until end of turn. Which means, that this creature when killed off will also -2/-2 another creature, which means this creature can block a 4/4 and kill them off, because when he goes to the graveyard, you can assign the target minus of power and toughness to that creature, and that creature's toughness will go down zero and he will be dead."
