    It could be a decent plan B out of the board for BG Depths. At least I'm willing to give it a try there.

    A 2/2 can deal more than 2 damage if it gets to attack twice. I just wish it made wolves instead so my Master of the Wild Hunt could fuck up some Griselbrands or Emrakuls

    I think it would be cool if they placed this set in arena and used it as a way to enrich the MTG Arena Extended Constructed format presumably coming post-rotation...

    White beast within seems nice. Would call of the herd even be played in modern nowadays?

    Now they only Need to print a wasteland analogue and modern will really feel like old time Legacy. A snow variant with a snow mana activation possibly, so that it work best in mono-color decks and doesn't Simply go in 3 color tempo. I really love the new snow manland as well.

    Surprised that Umezawa's Charm didn't get a last minute update to push it and make it say "Choose two. You may choose the same mode more than once."
    Then it would be consistent both in flavor and oopsie power level

    Call of the Heard is Timeshifted. So it's been legal in Modern since the format's inception.

    That was the intent of the flavor text, except Thundering Djinn + Brainstorm deals 4 damage, which is no Lightning Bolt. It's a flavor fail.

    Sure, if you want to be intentionally dense about it and ignore the fact it's +3 damage and only look at the total.

    I'm far from being the only one who has the exact problem with it if you look at social media.

    I'm just hating on a shitty flavor text. And no, just references to two old, iconic cards in a poorly constructed, awful sounding sentence alone is NOT good flavor, yet people gobble it up anyway. Nostalgia shouldn't be an excuse for crap. But hey, I member!

    /rant

    Back to topic:



    That's an interesting take on splicing. Hopefully we're going to see more of that in the future.

    Taking away the arcane sub-type might actually put some cards into the realm of 'playable'.

    I predict that red = threaten, green = rampant growth, blue = boomerang but non-land, black = Coercion

    EDIT: Umezawa's Charm seems to be just short of good. Flavor? Incredible. Power level? Should have gotten 'choose 2' like PirateKing said above.

    If I may, I think it would only work in the Mox Diamond/Loam lists. I play the ESG/Lotus Petal version and I wouldn't touch this for that deck with a 20 ft stick. Bitterblossom is just leagues better for that strategy.

    Splice without the arcane restriction might make it playable but probably still only in EDH (where I've thus far never seen anyone splice anything in years of play).

    People do splice Desperate Ritual and Through the Breach occasionally.

    Modern only has 16 existing bears, and there's what 4 bears on the way? That's a 25% increase in total bears.

    Also, this new common bear (is powerful or a common) is a really cute story
