Knives101 Whisking Whirlwind -- Shadowclash of Blinding Night

In the right deck this card could be pretty good. Attack with all your
creatures, and then untap them, so that your opponent cannot attack them
during his turn. This card is best used in a rush deck. I've never seen it
played in a Mono-Light but it could be nice in that type of a deck too. If
you want you can cast Full Defenser, and Whirlwind in the same turn. Then
you can attack with your creatures, and defend with those same creatures
during your opponent's turn.

Whisking Whirlwind
Might as well call this card "You Can't Touch This." ; )

[Effect]
Untap all your creatures at the end of your turn. Whisking can be helpful to certain decks in Constructed, extending Toel 's effect to builds that otherwise wouldn't want to invest 5 mana for the widespread untap effect.
With Whisking your opponent has to work harder to kill off your creatures.
If he can't draw or cast widespread kill for some turns, a few Whisking drops can spell a heap of trouble for blocker-less opponents in a Rush deck.
In Limited, this card is tops. Creature kill is sparse and direct attacks are usually the only way an opponent can wreck havoc on your field. For me, it's a near-automatic Limited pick.

Effect Ratings:
Constructed: 3/5. Not for every deck but if you've ever wanted a low cost alternative to Toel, then it doesn't get any better than Whisking.

Limited: 4.5/5. Choose your spells wisely since it's way more important to pack creatures. But if you draw this spell, it will annoy your opponent--especially if you have better field advantage.
