Son of a goddamn bitch, what the gently caress is with their loving blue boner? Be this good to red mages EVER. Origins better have a playable 1RR Chandra. Or RRR, it's not like I'm gonna play a different color unless someone gives me $1000 SCG store credit. Fake edit: Jesus Christ, that would get me a set of Goyf and 2 Liliveil, gently caress this game. vvv: How about just a way to beat ANT that comes into play with a divinity counter if a spell or ability an opponent controls would cause it to be put into graveyard or exile from anywhere? At mythic. Doesn't break any format, just takes away ANT's free bye vs burn. Tubgoat fucked around with this message at 17:18 on Mar 4, 2015 |

Wonder if you could do an esper control thing with Sorin?

Narset can be used a lot. Tokens, control. Lots of fun stuff. I really want to make a Jeskai control with her. Use Soulfire as the only critters. Commands, Strikes, Stokes, Counters, Wraths and LOTS OF PLANESWALKERS! WHEE So expensive

Sultai charm is the cleanest rebound target of all since it basically does whatever you need it to do in addition to having a digmode and there's not a better shell for superfriends right now than Sultai.

With Dragon Fodder being reprinted, I wonder how many decks will either substitute Hordeling Outburst for it or run them alongside one another. My current Mardu Warrior Tokens rogue deck thing can probably use it but depending on what else gets spoiled I may just play some BR aggro deck instead. rip wedges

I'm currently working on assembling Sultai Superfriends just because I have the walkers minus an Apex Predator and I could see splashing white for Narset. There's also the fact that the deck has access to the best 0/3 with hexproof ramper in standard, too. forbidden lesbian posted:This song is literally what happened I really need to finish P4G..

So that is two cards I want to mess around with in standard, perhaps it will push UW over the edge? Only thing I really want to see now is a decent three mana counterspell to replace dissolve as it is rotating out. Unless Wizards wants to bring back an old favorite for MTG Origins standard legal reprint of counterspell confirmed.

Well sultai superfriends typically doesn't run Carytid since Satyr Wayfinder is just so much better in that shell, but I guess that could change (don't cut wayfinder)

Narset is good with Treasure Cruise and Dig Through Time, which is a bad sign for her future in Modern. She's terrible with Sphinx's Revelation and Blue Sun's Zenith. I think there's a nonzero chance we see her in Vintage, because control decks in that format run only about 17 lands and tons of creatures. Her advantages in Vintage are: - 7 starting loyalty if you plus her, 4 if you minus her, so she's immortal against a lot of decks in the format. - First ability is about a 2/3 chance of drawing a card, although not quite as much value as Jace. - Second ability can double very powerful Vintage spells like Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, and Treasure Cruise. - Ultimate completely locks out every deck except Shops and Null Rod aggro, whereas Dack Fayden sees play despite an ultimate that doesn't do anything. Downsides: - 2WU mana cost. The only 4+ mana planeswalkers in Vintage are Jace TMS and Tezzeret the Seeker, the latter of whom is a one-card "You win the game next turn". - She competes with Jace to be placed in the same kind of deck. - Vintage decks don't have many cards that support her -2, though the ones they have are very good. Forget Modern, I so want to play Narset in a deck with one-ofs Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, Treasure Cruise, and Demonic Tutor.

We've seen a small part of the set, and none of the other walkers in it, not to mention the rest of the command cycle (I Love You! mentioned them), other mythics, and who knows what else... I like her, don't get me wrong, but "all the value will be on her" is a pretty huge statement, especially for a large set.

Tibalt could LOSE a control mirror under the best circumstances. Alright, ya know what? Just a public apology for Tibalt along with an MPR-style mailing of Tibalt-the-not-a-permanent-reminder-of-R&D's-contempt-for-eternal-red-value. Was REALLY hoping for Koth reprint in Origins but that can't happen now (as Chandra is their red 'walker (and is in her second year, not third)).

Count Bleck posted:You say that, and then watch, we're getting Zendikar fetches. To clarify, I mean if she stayed at $50, all the value of the set would be on her. Just like Khans, if you have a set where the EV of a pack is much higher than the MSRP of the pack, everyone opens boxes until prices go down. This is why fetches are no longer $15-20 + all the other cards have settled a good bit. If narset stays at $50 then other cards have to be worthless. If Narset is $50 and other cards have value people will crack boxes until she is lower than $50. TL;DR she won't stick at $50. But she may be at $50 until sometime after gameday when people seem to get their fill and prices start cooling off.

I think she'll be good in every format where either Dig Through Time or Treasure Cruise is legal, but Modern is not on that list. I'm giddy thinking about running Narset in Vintage. Imagine: -2 Narset, cast Demonic Tutor, find Time Walk. On your extra turn, Demonic Tutor rebounds for Yawgmoth's Will, letting you recast Time Walk.
