Um but without the comforting feeling of a keyword on my dick how am I supposed to know that these things that all appear to share a mechanic are actually mechanically related rather than just being my fever dream

And people asked why Naya didn't have a mechanic. Turns out that keyword on your dick is doing an incredible amount of work.

You can make the point without watching an excruciating untimed Jim Davis game by just watching his turn here:

I get that these matches aren't timed, but warnings should have been made. That was embarrassing from the judges.

i like support being keyworded because it means things can mechanically care about it

rare green creature, "whenever you support one or more creatures, draw a card"
uncommon green creature "whenever you support, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature"
uncommon white creature, "if you would support X, instead support X+1" (or however they'd template that)

That was a regular timed match, 50 minute round. Strangely, they were in the draw bracket.

I would think sales are down if anything. I would also think that shops registering to run small IQ's are also down as there isn't much reason to do them anymore. The decks didn't change much between origins and battle, the need to buy cards has been pretty low for the average player.

It could also be that BBD didn't have much success this year or last and the roster for SSG is already kind of big.

drat I didn't realize that Simian Spirit Guide was using Behavior-Driven Development techniques. Will the card see more modern play now that it has moved to using a different software development process?
