    If nothing else it looks like both tokens are told to die by a single trigger, so a single Stifle keeps both on board.

    Oh wow. I was expecting red to get the short end of the stick but I think they didn't even get any stick at all.

    Looking at you, Miracles, U/R Delver, Stoneblade, Sneak & Show, Maverick, Reanimator, Deadguy, B/G Nic Fit, and G/W Enchantress players.
    Yeah, but if you're running four fetches you're now probably going to run fewer just for that odd time you encounter spyglass

    Calling them all force was bad too. It's like admitting the other four we a mistake. When they did the double pitch cycle they weren't all called the same.

    I'm talking about 2-color decks that run 4 perfect fetches and additional off-color fetches.

    For example, a U/R Delver deck that runs 4 Scalding Tarn, 3 Island, 1 Mountain, 2 Volcanic Island, and 4 fetches like Flooded Strand and Bloodstained Mire.

    In a deck like that, you're keeping the 4 Scalding Tarn, but deciding between replacing any of the Flooded Strand and Bloodstained Mire with Prismatic Vista.

    Does this make burn any faster? It could produce more T3 kills. This is basically Fireblast for Modern.

    The free cast mode doesn't allow the player to attack with the tokens. If you want to attack with them you'll have to pay 3 mana and cast on your own turn.

    i think it's actually a decent card. it might not make the cut for legacy, but being able block some guys when you're tapped out could be fine. might be playable with some other cards that help them stick around, or maybe deal some damage upon entering play.

    i'm pretty okay with 6 damage for 3 mana. again, prob not good enough legacy, but i think it will find some play.

    Wow I didn't catch that. That's pretty special. So its basically an offensive card that can only be used defensively. Makes no sense.

    Agreed. Pretty dumb design failure.

    The only upside I really see is that you can tap out for a Planeswalker and this can kind of protect it until your next untap.

    It's also great vs Elves as they have a significantly harder time to kill a creature than an enchantment. Bonus points for protecting it with Mom to make them cry bitch tears.

    Other good targets are Elemental (Young Pyromancer, if there are too many), Goblin tokens from EtW, or Merfolk to kill TNN.

    I can see it replacing Orzhov Pontiff in Wb D&T due to a stronger body, easier casting cost and longer-lasting effect to keep the board clear, even if it can't catch everything in one go.

    Players of Modern disagree:

    Wow. That salt.

    It's a set full of sweet cards and only has two walkers, so it's going to be fucking sick as a limited format. Maybe we just like the throwbacks it has more? But really, this and War? RnD has been on fire.

    They seem to be upset that the set isn't just allowing them to play legacy with shocklands.
