Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Dance with Calamity I love this. It is the kind of card that just cracks me up. Like playing your own mini-game of Blackjack. Just big splashy dumb fun that gets the whole table to laugh as you either succeed or fail spectacularly. :rofl: I just am sad that is even or I'd put it in my Kraum, Ludevi...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Well, whoever wanted Horsemanship, you got it! I like how its in blue because Horsemanship is basically unblockable. The nice thing is, if LOTR has a bunch of it, the mechanic will start functioning more like flying as time goes on. Honestly, as a lover of horsemanship who runs Sun Quan, Lord of Wu...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Our boy Urabrask got the last laugh - card seems INSANE, and maybe the best of the Praetor Sagas? - A 4/4 first strike for 2RR . Meh, not bad... - Deal 1 damage when I cast an instant or sorcery? To target opponent and not all opponents? Guttersnipe is stronger! - ...wait, and add R ?!?!? Okay, now...

Well, at least we have aftermath to show some of what happened. I suspect aftermath was Wizard's response to all the complaints about ZNR not showing much from the Eldrazi wrecking the place.

OK, just had some soda and two oranges, got a little bit of energy. Look, take this with a grain of salt, but I'll be the first to admit that things take inspiration from other things all the time.

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread

I feel like worrying over parallels to other fiction is pretty pointless. Everything is derivative at this point. There are only so many stories. I sense that being concerned with similarities to other fables is fairly useless. All things are descended from something else at this juncture. We have ...

Thanks @Guardman. I... can't even begin to explain how terrible this kind of storytelling is. And how much it affects my loyalty to WOTC and MTG as a universe. And with that, I think I'm out. I'll buy a few singles here and there, but I can feel my perspective on this game turning into just that......

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

You ever have an idea for a custom set, but you move on to other projects and you think about it every once in a while? Well, between the Warhammer Precons and MOM, I feel like half the work has been done by Wotc already. I had an idea for a RTS inspired massive armies themed set, and we now have Sq...

Phyrexians are ridiculously played out. I'm having trouble reading spoilers for this upcoming set because I can't stop rolling my eyes.
Well, good news, this is probably the last you will have to see of them for another 10 years. Well, after Aftermath comes out at least anyway.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

You know what's funny? I wonder if battles were meant to help aggro decks in the same way planeswalkers ended up helping control decks. Planeswalkers are often the win-condition for control decks, I wonder if battles end up becoming the win condition for some aggro decks. If you have a swarm of chea...

Fetches are one of the biggest mistakes ever made. Want proof? They started Pioneer by banning them. The problem with fetches if they have no downsides (Paying 1 life is not that big of a deal), and they have waaaaay too many upsides.

Well, why write a compelling story when you can just use the plots of marvel movies. Am I the only one who is laughing about how Wotc doesn't even bother to change the homework they copied?
