Scar's Brother,
Ultimate Gift:
It seems like Scar's Brother always gets the
short end of the stick.
His 11 cost isn't that great comparatively, his
7 cost is decent, but in a bad archetype for
constructed, and he doesn't even have his own
name.
Ultimate Gift is interesting in that, while it
obviously isn't incredible in constructed, it
does have some serious potential in any limited
format. If you have a 6-command leader, you can
play him at level 1 with any faction, and he has
decent stats that include alchemy. While the
effect itself is kind of weak, it has potential
to be totally unexpected since you probably
won't use it much.
Sacrificing allies seems to be a bit of a theme
in Sacrifice (gee, I wonder why?) and if you
sacrifice too many too often, your field will
look pretty sad. Still, although weak for
constructed, Scar's Brother, Ultimate Gift
should be strong in limited, especially sealed.
Good thing it's a common!
Ratings:
Constructed: 1.5/5
Sealed: 4/5
Speed Draft: 3.5/5 (again, more options are open
in speed draft, so take better ones.)

This week's
Sacrifice spoiler is Scar's Brother Ultimate
Gift. He's a 5 cost Rebel/Human/Ishbalite with
3/3/5 attributes. His ability says when one of
your allies would be defeated sacrifice an ally
with same or higher cost. I'm still a little out
on his ability. It seems to me if a low cost
ally is about to be defeated you probably
wouldn't care about saving him so much to give
up another ally. For higher cost allies, it just
seems so costly to sacrifice say an 8 cost to
save a 7 cost.
However, at his core he is a cheap cost ally
that can be dropped turn 1 with any 6 command
leader. Depending on how many alchemy locations
are flying around at the Pre-Release, you can
expect to see him pop up if nothing else for his
4 alchemy.
Sealed:3/5-Low cost, decent alchemy
Constructed:2/5-He is a cheap version of Scar's
Brother. That's about it though.
