    Why couldn't this target yourself? We needed an anti-poison hatebear!

    Totally missed that. Yea I see that, its like Kataki long after they went "Oh Shit" and banned everything out of Mirrodin.

    This set is actually bizarrely full of late "Oh shit, here's a hate card" entries. You've got Mistcaller and Infernal Reckoning for the Aetherworks Marvel deck, this thing for Marvel and the multicolor energy decks, Smelt for Vehicles, all of the token hate that's presumably directed at Saprolings and Vampires even though those decks are stillborn in Standard right now...it's like once they decided they needed a Core Set as a safety valve for Standard, they decided to pull out all the stops.

    Too bad the ban list mopped up all of these problems already. Oh well.

    New Pox-like card, but it's 5 mana. Dunno how playable that is in a Pox style deck.

    3BB Fraying Omnipotence

    Each player loses half life, discards half cards, sacrifices half creatures. Round up.

    Hmm, doesn't hit lands. Useless.

    Yeah for sure, this set looks like a bunch of extra card designs that didn't end up making it to the final product. I don't know if that is a good or bad thing but there certainly have been some interesting cards in this set.

    While having hate cards is a good thing, it's really bizarre how extremely narrow (and thus pretty much unusable) most of those cards are. E.g. Amulet of Safekeeping is Skylasher-tier in terms of narrowness.

    As a hate card, this one is really weak. As a 1/4 for though, this is about what sorts of function to expect. Honestly though, I'm having a hard time finding much of any use for this card, given the narrow text. This one is like, Sorrow's Path kinda useless.

    My thought too. I thought the ability might be relevant, but I can't really think of anything to do with this.

    Not too sure what to think about that one. Doesn't seem Legacy-good to me on the first glance.

    Really only relevant if you're old enough to remember when Jayemdae Tome was good.

    He's also best buddies with the new Karn as you curve into them and they complement each other rather well. Both can produce tokens that grow Karn's tokens, the artifacts boost Tezzeret's draw. Once the red menace is over, Standard is going to have field day with this as you shit out tokens and card advantage out the wazoo.

    This card seems pretty good.

    Hah! Skeleton Archer has creature types 'skeleton archer'. Pretty lazy of WotC... Are there any other creatures like this whose name is simply it's creature types?

    Banding was the funniest thing when we all first cracked open our revised starter decks. We mangled it so repeatedly, and everyone mangled it differently.

    Elvish Scout is an Elf Scout.


    The bigger question, is why aren't Giant Spiders, creature types Giant and Spider?

    Come on Wotc :P
