Fiend Computer posted:Oh crap I assumed it was a global effect. Never mind then, I don't actually like him that much. He's still good as a hasty 5/4 though. Generally, unless you're playing 2 cards a turn (Token deck or double bears?), giving one creature haste is basically the same as giving every creature haste.

Yeah, it is, I dunno what I'm complaining about. Surrak is pretty alright. He will probably see more play than his other version at least. So we can now confirm that Taigam will probably be three mana, seeing how the other Kahns costs are 1, 2, 4 and 5 so far, right?

You would rather have trample than haste? Given the assumption that having both is out of the question, of course.

Even if you assume that Ferocious will be very easy to turn on when you factor in his 5 power (which, as others have pointed out, isn't an unreasonable assumption) you're still looking at his entire text box being "Fires of Yavimaya, but not as good." That's boring. Compare Xenagod for an example of how to do it better.

Lately all I want to play is limited (I usually do my lgs FNM which is a booster draft, but I do have a decent U/W Heroic deck for various tourneys they hold). Would it be wise to buy some event tickets on my super old MTGO account to just draft with for practice or is there something better I could be doing?

Look man as a person who likes playing wraths I'm really scared of something like mystic - courser - surrak take 7 lmao Cuz that shits gonna happen before I even have my third land in play and isn't a particularly nutty draw or anything.

He's still a couple blocks away from a ban, and there will be fetches in Return to Zendikar.

Just being a very efficiently costed haster that gives all your other dudes haste isn't enough. It needs more upside. More!! Incidentally why does the creature power level keep rising??

I'll never understand the whole Toxx Clause thing. I mean, I'm glad for it, like when Obama got elected the first time and half the libertarians and republicans in D&D committed mass forum seppuku , but I guess I'm just not much of a gambler.

I mean to be fair new Surrak probably won't see play since a well-costed aggressive card doesn't seem like a natural fit in any of the snowballing nightmares that are Gx standard decks.

Fuzzy Mammal posted:Yeah we both did. Functional forums search is so nice. Here is where I toxx myself and King takes it on the next page or so. So your Toxx has two clauses. One is fetches won't be in m15 or the next block. Then you say Zendikar fetches won't appear in standard. If you view them seperately, you should Toxx for the first part, they were in the set after m15, and the 2nd part you are almost certainly going to be wrong come Battle for Zendikar. King said the next 3-4 blocks, so the odds he gets toxxed would be khans block, origins, Battle for Zendikar, and one after that, two if you don't count Origins as a block. Fuzzy Mammal posted:Follow your own advice and go back and reread what I linked. I said not in that block, then further on clarified exactly which sets I was referring to by code name. Also unlike King I didn't go back and edit my post later to cover up losing. He last edited his post 4 minutes after he posted it back in March of 2014? He obviously didn't go back and edit it after fetches were announced in Khans or Battle for Zendikar was announced etc. Your getting pretty salty guy. jassi007 fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Mar 11, 2015 |

Also unlike King I didn't go back and edit my post later to cover up losing. I editted my post 4 minutes after I made it to join in on your stupid Toxx game in the first place Go check the timestamp and do the math. And at this point I can say I really, really wish Wizards just bit the bullet and brought in Dragon Tribal for this one set (seeding it in the previous one with Ugin) because like half these conditional cards would actually be really playable then. I hope we see an upswing in power level in the next set. Was Return to Zendikar in development when Theros released? I feel like whichever block is responding to Theros/DGM is the most likely to bring back some stronger cards.
