If we want to get super cute, it also pumps up Mutavaults. VALUE TOWN!
There is an irony in the name of the card (generic and basic as it is) and the current environment we're in with society and civic unrest. Like, it's too perfect.
I'm a fan of the card, awaiting...
So, as far as Legacy goes, the red creature is a fail, right? It seems a fail. From a ridiculous casting cost and gimmick reducer, to the limited actual ability. 6/6 trample is nice, but no haste....
I disagree on the premise that an opponent playing a walker and getting a chance to use a loyalty ability isn't the problem if an instant can kill it in response. This turns a PW into an effective...
I don't think that cost is high enough. It's like red punisher cards, the opponent will always let the worse outcome for the active player resolve. Unless the player casting brainstorm is at 2 or 1...
I don't see how it hits companions, it makes no mention of that zone, which already sits in exile (outside the game, or some other such fancy parlance).
No, just no.
A cheaper version of Cranial Extraction, Memoricide, or Slaughter Games? There's no reason for this card to be printed.
That is a bad card, and you should feel bad for designing...
@ronco - make that casting cost 3W. For it to be worthwhile, it still needs to be lower to activate. Not to mention, this card really comes into play after a brainstorm has been resolved. So...
Dreadbore should be an instant, like terminate. But that would be too OP, since it isn't also awesome.

You're welcome, and not obviously not many people.
Unless the chalice player is playing uncounterable cards, or using things like Cavern of Souls or Vexing Shusher it is symetrical, because the...
Disagree. While many people are butt hurt about chalice on 1, it is modal and scales down or up, so it's reach is beyond 1-card. That and the fact it is symetrical, and easily answerable (shattering...
I miss the secret tech of Eladamri's Vineyard being a wincon, mana burn, i miss thee.
I <3 this post.
During my college years I became a super duper casual player. Then got out of the game until about Mirrodin Besieged etc. Fast forward to Tumble Magnet and I tap someone's whatever, thinking I was...
Just give credit where it's due... I love that alt-art Doubling Season box topper. So happy it was f'n cats. Baby dinos, MTG still knows how to do a few things correctly.
If Brainstorm were a sorcery instead of an instant it wouldn't be nearly the problem the idealist make it out to be.
Brainstorm has hit every metric MTG has used to justify banning a card, yet it...
It's true, it's true ...

Easy come, easy go. Dega can't have nice things (that aren't usurped by U/awesome).
Respect this quote a lot.
For those that want to protect brainstorm, because Pioneer is not a viable alternative, neither is modern keep the cantrip, ditch the pushed creatures.
Specifically - Delver, TNN, Clique, Snappy. ...
Shared with playgroup, was appreciated. Good find.
That would become boring, excluding eternal sets to specials. It belies the intent of eternal (you can use all of the cards), and robs the fun that is spoiler season for the majority of product.
...
Cat and any flashback deck, splash against Snappy, PiF, dredge, etc.
If folks want to keep Brain Storm, then Delver (red), Clique (black), TNN (white), Snappy (red) should all be banned. It's crap on a cracker that all of those cards are efficient beaters with...
I still think Oko is too good. But I feel the same way about Brainstorm, and a bunch of other things with the Awesome mechanic.
As an aside, I doubt anything happens ban wise with anything...
