Man, the free time some people must have to be constantly whining and bitching on internet forums about whatever last detail is going on about or even only around a game. I mean constantly, barring the time that must be spent to go and find more news to then come bitch about.
Is there and adult's table somewhere around here ? Please ? I'm getting worried I might hit some kind of limit on the length of the ignore list.
The set looks really good for me. It brings back some memories.
I am curious if they will print a new Karakas land, that will also hit planeswalker now with so many legendaries and Jace, the Wallet Sculptor unban in Modern.
Damping Sphere
If a land is tapped for two or more mana, it produces C instead of any other type and amount.
Each spell a player casts costs 1 more to cast for each other spell that player has cast this turn.
Looks like a nice tax card for Robots or Eldrazi.
Yeah, I think most of the time Thorn is just flatly better in Robots. Because it doesn't really effect you and it taxes even their first spell. But maybe one or two in the board if the meta is combo heavy? I don't know.
I like this set so far. I'd like it better if there were more Legacy-level cards, but I'll settle for interesting cards at least, even if they are mostly just for EDH.

Oh you get the first counter as an etb effect? Wow. Likely going to be playing this in standard.
These cards are some super clunky templating.
The mirari saga also seems very strong but it's probably just a worse Pyromancer Ascension
Also how has nobody commented on the new Lich yet
Nourishing Shoal buyout incoming
The BUG Elemental legend certainly wins the 'hurr durr can nicfit play this 6 drop' award
"baleful strix, explorer, deed, nissa, fetchland, go"
Edit:
I just realised that the Voltaic Servant lets you pay for Stasis
Goblin Warchief in Modern!
I think people already did that due to that Griselhoard deck a while back, but maybe there would be another...
I definitely like the card for EDH, but you still have to pay the mana cost of each thing you want to play from the yard.
That is a very interesting card, but probably not super powerful. It's also pretty handy with Time Vault,

I'm more and more intrigued by Lich's Mastery.
If you Nourishing Shoal with Autochrom wurm or whatever, you draw 15, likely drawing into the Nourshing combo again. Just keep comboing to overdraw your deck (you can't lose due to Lich). Then win with some kind of Lightning storm, Lab Man, or some other means when you're holding your entire deck. Or Soul Spike, which will deal 4 and draw 4 cards.
It's improved from Nefarious Lich cause you can exile from your hand as well as the yard, and you can't lose the game other than losing Lich. This one has Hexproof too, so no Krosan Grip to lose the game.
It's very likely a bad deck, but you could go UB Show and Tell, getting disruption on top of the Show and Tell -> Lich/Griselbrand, storm off with Soul Spikes, Nourishing combo, just Show and Tell again, Griselbrand into Lab man...?
Still worse than known Horizon Chimera interaction; fewer color restrictions, fewer uncastable cards.
Damping Sphere seems decent for Eldrazi actually . . .
Also:
Does this work? Damping Sphere + Mana Flare/Heartbeat of Spring = All lands produce C only. Or is it that the land doesn't produce extra mana? Can this be a lock against decks that don't have a colorless out?
It doesn't work but mana reflection does. In unrelated news I am looking to trade 4 mana flares once they arrive in 2-4 days...
