Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
I personally would take the Saga frames over Amonkhet promos.
The art was nice but trying to figure out what the card is was a nightmare.

Yeah they had zero "glance value". Im so used to just look over some detail and know what card it is. It feels so wrong to actually have to read a card.
Also squee the imortal, another cast from exile guy. Goblin food chain (win with sgc)?!?

Food Chain mana only casts creature spells, it doesn't count towards abilities. In order to go infinte with SGC, you'd need Skirk Prospector.

He is talking about the fact that you can't use Food Chain mana to activate SGC in order to actually go infinite.

Just found out all Artifacts are to be classed as "Historic". Can someone please explain to me what Slash Panther did to earn such an honour.

Historic is a game term introduced in Dominaria. It’s a mechanic unique to Dominaria, and not meant to be evergreen.
Historic refers to any card that has:
The Legendary supertype,
The Artifact card type, or
The Saga enchantment type.
Some abilities trigger "whenever you cast a historic spell." They don't trigger if a historic card is put onto the battlefield without being cast. Legendary Lands are never cast.
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
I'm just glad they went with "a historic" instead of "an historic." I'm not sure why, but an historic really bugs me...
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
Let me get this right:
If i have a card in play which "does X if a historic spell is played" in Legacy, it would trigger from all legal Legends & artifacts?
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
Anything good that triggers in the set? Baubles and other free shit get much better if so

Probably not - all the best historic triggers are 4 mana
Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle
3W
Legendary Creature - Bird Cleric
Flying
Whenever you cast a historic spell, return target creature card with converted mana cost 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
2/2
Plus any good 3 mana or less sacrifice creature plus baubles?
Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain
2UR
Legendary Creature - Human Artificer
Whenever you cast a historic spell, draw a card. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
3/3
Baubles are 0: Draw a card.
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
There's also Jhoira's Familiar. 2/2 Flying for :4: with Historic spells you cast cost :1: less to cast.
Just in cast you needed any more artifact discounting effects in your deck
Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)
At least SDT is banned to prevent more stupid shit with double SDT.
@Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle:
I know it's alot of cards and thus most likely not viable, but it + Junk Diver + :0: mana artifact that puts itself into the GY (even Walking Ballista should work for the extra value outside of the combo) + sac out wincon would work.
Good luck assembling the whole thing and getting creatures back through DRS, though.

Probably not good enough, because 4 mana is a lot, especially with Salvagers in the deck already, but this could be interesting to at least try in something like BW Bomberman with Mentors, as a backup plan, by allowing your Baubles to get back Mentor/Confidants and restock on resources.

It's almost as if we could have seen that coming...
