Fair enough. Maybe I'm painting with too broad of brushstrokes and letting my irritation at an obnoxious minority get in the way of things—maybe I'm . That said, it's abundantly clear that many of...
There are issues, discussions could be had, but this forum's, *ahem*, empowered userbase seem completely uninterested in anything besides a self-congratulatory circlejerk about how they are totally...
Set phasers to snark!
And this sort of epistemic closure is exactly what makes "discussions" with committed ideologues, such as yourself, unpleasant and mostly fruitless. There's no room for...
Not to pick on you in general, but this paragraph stands out as to why these "dialogues" (to appropriate a term favored by the identitarian academics) are quite one sided.
A certain set of...
Given that most of the Enchantment Creatures either suck (Archetypes, Bestow critters, most Constellation dudes) or are anti-synergistic with the deck (Eidolon of Rhetoric, Spirit of the Labyrinth)...
Wow, I don't even know what those are...which means they must be extremely pimp.
Out of curiosity, where exactly are those Angel tokens from?
Yeah, the upside of Traverse is outstanding. It's an effect (arguably) more powerful than Worldly Tutor, Living Wish, or other such cards that have fringe Legacy playability. In some respects, it...
That's the rub...I do play Limited. In fact, I probably play it more than any other format nowadays.
I understand that some staple effects need to be at Rare or Mythic because they are so...
Card seems very bad; Diabolic Revelation and Increasing Ambition are both a lot better at multi-tutoring in EDH, and this effect has never been particularly strong in Legacy.
As an aside, is...
Looks like Paper Pauper has become the hot, new format for speculations; Chainer's Edict is now a ~$13 dollar card, Oubliette is being bought out, and foils of many format staples are rapidly...
Completely agree with more Scrys for each mulligan taken; a Scry is, generally, only worth half a card so this wouldn't overly enable combo decks while making mulls past 6 to feel a bit less...
They could do something similar to what they did with DFC creatures in the first Innistrad. Cards like Delver had some faded font next to an indentation on the right side of the text box that read...
If it's not fake, it's disappointing from a "lore" point of view — a mostly haphazard collection of cards, many of which have little significance to the Magic storyline overall.
But from a value...
Petrified Field just doubled in price; is it some sort of speculative anti-Wasteland tech for Legacy Eldrazi builds? Or is it just another crazy buyout?
Totally forgot about this, which makes this release all the better. They've actually been doing a decent job printing interesting, if not overly powerful, non-Blue cards in supplemental products. ...
But why would anyone buy it? It does nothing.
I'm here all week, folks.
Cool, a special product that's actually affordable and stands a chance of actually reducing the price of some cards.
I'm already much more excited for this than Eternal Moneygrabsters.
I understand the consternation with the official EDH banlist — it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. Stuff like Painter's Servant is banned for having too much combo potential, but Tooth and...
Well, I wouldn't put much stock in that rumor. I don't expect Wizards to ban the Reserve List from Legacy for a multitude of reasons.
That said, I think the deck would take a huge kick in the...
I miss the times when I traded an Exalted Angel, the Standard hotness, for my two Underground Seas...and was getting the raw end of the deal.
This is going to be a complete shitshow. Eternal Masters is not going to make the format more accessible in any meaningful way and it will suffer from all the same problems as Modern Masters did.
...
I'm certain everyone has seen some of the absurd Modern price spikes after Pro Tour: Eldrazi, but what has really stuck out at me is that Thunder Spirit is now at $100 TCG Mid Price (presumably...
He is right — Modern really doesn't have great ways to reign in powerful manabases before turn three; it's pretty much Spreading Seas and Sea's Claim which are basically only usable in Merfolk or...
Judging by the Madness enablers they've seeded throughout previous sets, I think it's going to have a much more midrange bent than U/G Madness of old. The classic Madness deck was about sticking a...
Synergy notwithstanding, I'd say the top picks would look something like this:
White
-Swords to Plowshares
-Path to Exile
-Oblivion Ring
-Council's Judgment
-Entreat the Angels
-Elspeth,...
