the best prerelease card

Since a discussion has already been started in another thread, I wanted to redirect it here: What is the best prerelease card so far from a competitive perspective?
I have no definite choice, but I can at least reduce my selection to the following cards: Questing Phelddagrif, Laquatus's Champion, Glory, Rukh Egg. Note that I consider none of these cards overly strong, but I think there are no better cards available as prerelease cards.

Possibly Lightning Dragon although Glory was a very strong card.

By far...Shield of Kaldra!
No...Wait...Revenant!
Oh crap...I forgot about Overtaker!
Prerelease cards are mostly crap with a few exceptions. If I really have to vote I'll pick False Prophet since he did me so well in a Sneak Attack deck.

Lightning Dragon probably was the most competitive prerelease card, though Laquatus's Champion, Glory, and Sword of Kaldra each saw a fair amount of play in our casual group.

They should have hired amy weber again to make the questing pheldagriff artwork; that one really puts a shame to the pheldagriff name and general idea If she had drawn it it'd be my first choice ![Wink](/YaBBImages/wink.gif)
As for now, I'll join the crowd who likes the lightning dragon the most
