The game treats them almost like there isn't another side to them
Teyo works in more archetypes that the blue one, Vronos, since it's good in planeswalker decks with it's +1, and most other decks with it's -2, but Teyo is good in planeswalker decks too since he makes a free flyer to block attacks as well as Defenders, Toughness, Group Hug with his +1, Pillow Fort with the -2 to force attacks elsewhere save for one, Politics decks, and any white deck that wants pure card draw
I have a bit of hatred for later sets that use copy/pasted Ken Sugimori artwork on plain backgrounds, I think its super lazy
The ability to make copies of your creatures over and over again is really powerful, and the best of the lot is this lord ability
State-based actions are applied simultaneously, so the losing the game and 1996 World Champion dying would happen at the same time
