I've been calling Hedron Crawler "Crawlsie". Similarly, Gravity Negator is Mr Floaty, and Jwar Isle Avenger is Flapcat. Though I suppose all sphinxes would be flapcats.

These are all from the sealed thing I'm in right now. Crawlsie spent two entire games tapped down by Blinding Drone, tipped over with his legs waving in the air.

I think Sphinx of the Final Word should be "the NO sphinx" due to the flavour text which says its answer is always no.

Flapcat is a powerful name indeed. XD
Aw, poor Crawlsie.

I keep calling Stormchaser Mage "Not Ral Zarek" but the suggestion above of "Cam" is a better LRR name.
