different types of creatures
Spirit Avatar. In the Shadowmoor and Eventide sets, there is a cycle of ten creatures known as the Spirit Avatars. (Spirit Avatar is also their creature types.) They are powerful hybrid creatures with powerful abilities, making them good to have in a dual-colored or monocolored deck.
Griffins are wild creatures that share the characteristics of both lions and eagles (or felines and birds of prey). They inhabit wide prairies, cliffs and canyons. Usually white, flying 2/2 creatures, they are fierce fighters, often with initiative, but not too powerful.
