It's a splashy effect, but 4 mana is a lot for a counterspell and UUU is very restrictive. You can counter a spell or bounce things for 1U if that's what you want, so I can't imagine this being played much outside of gimmick decks.

I hope that Chandra is real but I doubt it. If she is that is one incredibly strong walker but the hoops you have to jump through may be too restrictive.

Christ the hoops you have to jump through consist of have a single instant speed burn spell for their blocker or cast two red spells on turn 4. What loving world do you live in where those are tricky? Like that's the plan of every red deck ever.

My plan doesn't actually involve playing a grey ogre that does nothing the turn it comes down.

If that Chandra is fake then we're two for two on very convincing Chandra fakes.

What loving world do you live in where those are tricky? No man, swinging in with 4 mana open is so restrictive because Red never ever does that. Friendly reminder that you can have both Chandra, Roaring Flame AND Fire of Kaladesh on the board at the same time. I really, really hope this is her card. these are also the only walkers that get wrecked by Ratchet Bomb on 0, how humorous.

Eidolon costs 1 less and will probably do your opponent more damage.

The hoops I'm referring to are playing an aggressive Red deck that doesn't mind taking Turn 3 off to cast a Grey Ogre that gives no value if removed anytime before your next untap step, then taking turn 4 to not develop your board at all and instead cast two spells to trigger an effect that is cancelled by any instant speed removal in the set.

While this might not be the case forever, per my last point, but casting Chandra now at least gives Foundry Street Denizen a boost. The situation you described is otherwise no different from casting Goblin Rabblemaster, to be fair.

If you can catch them tapped out with a rabblemaster you get value. With this fake card they could just untap and then kill it.

I dont think that Card is absolutely nuts but not every deck that plays red cards is going to be red deck wins and there are in fact strong cards that aren't just the most powerful drop on curve.

Ya'll are acting like she's Tibalt and she's more like Venser. She's not JaceTMS but her transformation is something you can naturally do. I don't give a gently caress about standard but people told me the most recent 2/2 for 3 phoneix was playable and this card certainly does more than most of those.

Sigh, not going to that lgs for Monday night standard anymore. Takes 40 minutes to get there, normally 5 rounds. Today it was four. Lost round one, asked the coordinator about prize support. Even if I stayed for all three hours and won everything, I'd get three packs. Did not seem worth it, especially after a guy's weird homebrew deck destroyed my red deck due to utterly lovely draws and mana screw two games in a row. Hour and a half of driving isn'tworth that.

After hearing about all the MM1 hype I figured that it would probably be worth my while to buy 6 boxes of MM2 but yeah, right now I'm not that excited by it. I've already paid for them though so I'm pot committed.
