I think something wacky might come out of that enchantment and that legendary ally is really, really good, even if the second ability is wishful thinking in most circumstances.

Sickening posted:Because we needed 12 mythics and you can't make a set without bulk mythics. Well, I guess then I would rephrase the question as "Why do we need 12 Mythics if any number of them are just made up filler bullshit" I hope there's a black Oath which is Ob Nixilis's Oath, which is "At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player sacrifices a Jace, Chandra, Gideon or Nissa card," and has the flavor text "gently caress those cheesy cornball bastards."

I always think Jace's hooded look is kinda cheesy but then whenever he's not wearing it he looks worse. Basically he's Kylo Ren.

MaRo's true face shines through sometimes:Question on tumblr posted:im a fairly new player and i was searching on gatherer through the cards that cost phyrexian mana and i came across mental misstep, what was the thinking behind the card? MaRo's response posted:I tried to stop that card and failed. I think the thought behind it was development trying to make an exciting Phyrexian mana card.

Hey, remember when we thought they might be reprinting the Exodus oaths because the black one is the only one on the reserved list and they conspicuously excluded a black planeswalker from the cycle  gently caress Wizards.

Playing the holiday cube is a depressing reminder that new sets are focused grouped and played-safe to the absolute maximum, and that there will most likely never be fun or exciting cards ever again. This is like 30% sarcasm.
