I don't know if Sarkhan gets another walker card given they implied he's the same guy and Tarkir has changed but he hasn't. Might be a spell representing him being sane again, or his alliance with Ugin, or whatever else. Feels like we get Narset + someone else showing up to be like 'whoa dargons'Count Bleck posted:Also, the clans are now just named after the dragons I guess?

Lets be real, "The Atarka" sounds a lot cooler than "The Temur" I like both but Atarka is a really cool name.

Angry Grimace posted:So far he hasn't lost his spark. They have a "policy" to not print creatures of current Planeswalkers. Not sure what you mean by "so far". Like maybe we'll get a story about it? That'd be ideal, I've actually been really enjoying reading the lore of this block. But yeah, even if it hasn't been revealed yet, I think it would be an interesting twist if in the rewriting of history, Narset got a planeswalker spark and Sarkhan didn't. I'm fine with Sarkhan and all, but now he's essentially fulfilled his destiny and wrapped up his primary story arc, and now he's left on his home world in a state he prefers it in, full of dragons. It'd be a nice way to retire a planeswalker other than killing them. E: But this all assumes that the timeline change affects Sarkhan at all, which it might not have since he existed in the alternate present, the past, and the new present. But who knows how they want to spin it. Nibble fucked around with this message at 17:30 on Mar 2, 2015 |

PrinnySquadron posted:That Sidisi is rad and I kind of like Exploit. It suits black well. It's kind of neat but it looks terrible on an empty board. That said a 4/6 with motherfucking Diabolic Intent stapled to it looks pretty playable. Hopefully the abilities are sufficiently powerful to back it up. E: Aaaaand that has Deathtouch, holy poo poo.

Count Bleck posted:Also, the clans are now just named after the dragons I guess? I tested out the Temur list but the mana is just awful and deals you a ton of damage which is the reason I don't play it. I also don't think Kunckleblade is one of the best creatures in a standard with Tasigur and Siege Rhino. I also got completely out SB'd in my second match (I won my first and would've been 2-0 and just needed one more win to top) by an Abzan control player. I had Back to Nature in my SB as opposed to revelry as a nod to GB Constellation decks which are a TERRIBLE machup. So I bring them in G2 after I win G1 and don't see any in a very long game so I assumed he just boarded them out. So for G3 I take them out and he resolves Citadel Siege on T4 which I couldn't overwhelm fast enough and let him stabilize with Sorin+Elspeth to get out of range and I didn't draw a Craters Claws with him under 6 life for like 4 turns. Pretty terrible beat.

Combos okay with Narset, letting you return her for another swing next turn if she dies in combat. You don't get the value of the second cast, since it wasn't cast from your hand, but still neat. I hope a good Jeskai Control deck exists that uses her.

If your opponent responds to the Silumgar trigger w/ a kill spell, you don't get gain control of anything, even momentarily, correct?

Silumgar comes into play, targeting Tasigur. This will probably happen much more often than it should, and it'll be amazing every time.

Sidisi owns bones. Straight up beats Siege Rhino and Tasigur in combat. Still costs an un-delveable 5 so if you can't reliably trigger his exploit then he might not see Standard play but if you can he's a sweet control card. Silumgar looks hilarious in UB control and the mirror is gonna be great fun. "Steal your Ugin." "Steal your Silumgar, sac to legend rule and get my Ugin back."

Refer back to my previous statement of: Count Bleck posted:Silumgar comes into play, targeting Tasigur. I really want to start building up to the U/B control shell and it is exclusively Dragonlord Silumgar's fault, that card is awesome. New Sidisi owns bones because she's a 4/6 with deathtouch, and a tutor slapped on her, it's great.
