looks like a cool way for those 5c human decks to kill planeswalkers.

Should have been a 2/1 for 1B because of the symmetry, so at 3 mana it seems like a stretch for legacy.

Does Conclave Tribunal make any sense in Death and Taxes?

There were four Aggro Loam decks in the top 16 of the 109-player Finnish Legacy nationals tournament over the weekend. One deck played three MD copies of Assassin's Trophy, two of them played two MD copies, and one of them played none. I'm curious how the card was for them in the tournament.
Yeah, I searched TCDecks earlier and saw 2 Aggro Loam decks went undefeated in an MTGO League with 2/2 split Trophy/Decay.
Only other hits were 3 BUG Control, 2 4C Control, and Julian with Elves.
We're about a month out from the set release! For the record, I posted six cards this spoiler season:
Arclight Phoenix
Assassin's Trophy
Creeping Chill
Lazav, the Multifarious
Mausoleum Secrets
Runaway Steam-Kin
While not all of these ended up hitting Legacy - I'll settle for 5 of the 6 of them seeing serious competitive constructed play in at Modern and Standard.
None of them had significant or even any impact on the format like you had suggested in your posts. 'Welcome your new format staple' etc. was your words in regards to Trophy IIRC and, oh surprise, just like Lemnear and I had predicted, the card has almost no significance in the format at all for all the reasons pointed out. The other cards your listed there are just laughably bad and the fact that some may have had impact on modern or standard (I can't judge because I don't care for those formats) is irrelevant because this is a forum primarily about legacy. I don't mind your sales promotion strategy in some other forums but please keep it out of here.
The mere fact that you had to dig this out a month later to clean your reputation is quite amusing though.
Shardless BUG with Assassin's Trophy won the Legacy 1K at Card Kingdom/Mox Boarding House today. It's a good card and gives BUG a clean answer to Jace. Spoiler season is a great time to brew up new decks and test them out. Players are notoriously bad at assessing new cards, as anyone can see by looking through older threads here, so if you have an open mind and do the testing, you can get a leg up.
Also, Ben has been a member of this community for years, and his posts aren't just promotional.
So he is not allowed to make predictions but you are? Don’t be hostile towards others, before you know it you’re playing a format the size of vintage.
That said, after playing Guilds of Ravnica a bit I’m very impressed with the powerlevel of surveil. Price of Fame looks like a nice sideboard card to me, although probably too narrowz I’m keeping them just in case.
Goblin Cratermaker seems to be the break out legacy card. Vraska has a spot in nicfit, and ass trophy will find its way into the format too. Legion Warboss can find itself a slot next to Rabblemaster in dragonstompy.
I really want to like Growth Spiral, but I don't think it's legacy playable. I mean, it's not quite, but mostly just a worse Coiling Oracle or Explore.
But man, it's a cool card and I like it.
Simic Ascendancy seems kinda cute in some kind of Hardened Scales Affinity build between Steel Overseer and Ravager. Probably too much "danger of cool things" to be any good, but who knows.
I’m gonna try growth spiral out in solidarity. Being forced to go off on 3 lands is tough, and being able to ‘ramp’ in the opponents turn, or even mid-combo is huge.
We’ll see if springtide and solidarity is gonna make a comeback. The last couple of sets have really put some interesting toys into their repertoire.

Ok, the second ability is pretty nuts!
