Sage's Reverie looks like a cool card, but I can't help but feel like the decks that want it have already won or are about to win if they're ever in a position to cast it. It cantrips if it lands, at least.

This looks like it could be usable in a Whip deck maybe?

Lightning Bolt with a condition is still pretty strong, doubly so given that Red has Rabblemaster to get creatures to sac. I just wonder if Collateral Damage is good enough to be Lava Spike 5-8(?) in modern Burn. Worth at least testing in the side board I guess...

 Is it just me or does this seem pretty good, especially for a colorless creature? Seven mana is obviously a lot, but it should dominate most limited boards, and FRF doesn't seem to be adding more cheap/efficient removal that can blow it out.

Meh, 7 is a ton. If you need a win condition it provides, but 7 is so many manas.

Lightform seems really solid for limited. 1WW for a 2/2 flying lifelink that can potentially flip up into a bigger creature that still has flying and lifelink.

Dies to ferocious.  Rite of Undoing looks great. I don't remember if we saw that already. edit: Shifting Loyalties is exactly the card my Aggressive Mining deck is looking for!

New art reprint of Typhoid Rats. Not sure how I feel about the art. "Rats" with one Rat in the art. I thought they didn't want to do stuff like that anymore?

Yeah but not even this makes it maindeckable and if my opponent is bringing in a sideboard card that only interacts with one card in my deck I'm not that unhappy.

 I really like this for Sligh (even if it kills my Goblin Surfer dreams). This makes it so much easier to push through lethal in deadlocked boardstates, and it doesn't even target their creatures so it can go round Caryatid. Dragonrage is interesting, but unless you're trying to do something really weird or have loads of mana spare I think I prefer Trumpet Blast.

This is the one, if there's a Legacy Manifest deck it's likely to be using a lot of this card.  And this looks brilliant for Modern Bogles.

This thing might be the least necessary flavor functional reprint of all time: Why isn't this just Siege Mastodon? We're on a plane where both of those words appear on common cards

Map the Wastes seems like the kinda of unexciting card Green always wants 1 or 2 off in a Multi Colour limited block. Giving it the Bolster effect just makes that much better

Irony Be My Shield posted:Dragonrage is interesting, but unless you're trying to do something really weird or have loads of mana spare I think I prefer Trumpet Blast. Why would it have to be weird? You have 5 creatures, I have 6 little dudes, you're in single digits and seem to have stabilized. Normally I can't attack. Even with trumpet blast, I only get an extra 2 damage through with the one unblocked guy. For that same 3 mana, I instead get to pump my one unblocked creature by +6/+0 and you're probably dead. I don't have a clue about constructed since I got out of standard, but that's a solid pick for an aggressive draft deck.

ungulateman posted:...Not Emrakul or Griselbrand? Well, those cards at least exist in the rules of Magic as I understand them, while "destroy target flying enchantment (that by implication isn't a creature)" is out there in an entirely different way. Looking at the spoiler I'd guess Dragons is a battlecruiser set (which was probably guessable) with things that fly and are not creatures (which was definitely not). Perhaps Soulfire Grand Master implies an alternate future full of keywords on card types we don't expect?

It's a decent enough set considering we're in the middle of downshifting Standard (Which is always fun right? Masques? Kamigawa? Anybody?) Your big hitters are probably gonna be: Morphilization Monestary Rabblemaster Swords to Morphs Selsnya Dragon Dragon Damnation Delve Legend Bearpuncher Phoenix Totally Not Figure of Destiny Special shout outs to: Refocus Misthollow Elemental Every Mardu guy who ever jumped through a window Toshimo fucked around with this message at 18:49 on Jan 9, 2015 |

I wonder why they didn't just go with the modal templating, same as Crushing Vines?Now I know I'm going to have to call a judge on someone telling me I can't Return to the Earth their Jeskai Ascendancy because it doesn't fly.
