Terrible Horse posted:Just saw this come along: Both versions of Attrition have been jumping between $8 and $15 over the last week. I think it just has to do with lack of supply on TCGplayer. When someone puts up a copy that has a high delta from the mean price, it affects the tracker more than usual. Which is still dumb because both versions were going for $4-5 the middle of last month.

Irony Be My Shield posted:I guess they wanted to give other colors that effect. Honestly it may be better because you don't have to mess around with C sources. Yeah definitely, plus its not an "on cast" effect is almost certainly better though I think Vile Redeemer works a bit better with this goofy Rally The Ancestors combo deck I have in my head.

Eh if you made it 2 mana it would just be a slightly different raise the alarm, costing it for the goofy PW ability on it makes sense.

If it sees play in any sort of UW deck, the fact that jace can flash back 2 turns in a row after flipping seems like a big deal. 3 mana is probably too big a cost for that effect though.

A standard deck which starts with: 4x Gideon, Ally of Zendikar 4x Retreat to Emeria 4x Oath of Gideon 4x Oath of Nissa 4x Nissa, Voice of Zendikar 4x Hangerback Walker Seems like it can't be too bad.

I would actually rather play this on T3 than a retreat. Look at this Esper Tokens list Brad Nelson top 8ed this weekend with. Seems like exactly what that deck is looking for since it does nothing on T3 other than Painful truths. http://sales.starcitygames.com//deckdatabase/displaydeck.php?DeckID=97062

deftest posted:Couldn't they at least have been gates? It's oath of the GATEwatch, isn't it? It's not Oath of the MAZEwatch though. I kind of like Oath of Gideon, but I don't know if it will work. It's not like Nissa's which I think can even work without many if any walkers, that really wants a committed walker deck. But it does work nicely with Gideon as already pointed out, and I think will do things like make it easier to threaten Sorin's ultimate. Plus tokens to hide behind.

3 mana for a pair of 1/1 ally tokens isn't completely terrible if you don't happen to have a PW on the board, although it gets pretty sketchy if you don't run any

People are bound to notice that Dark Petition can instantly get you and cast rear end in a top hat 1-of sideboard options like Drown in Exile, Virulent Plague, Infinite Obliteration, Ruinous Path, etc. Drown in Exile isn't nearly as bad as Kozilek's Return is for tokens, I'd think. Instant speed Pyroclasm is playable even if the second clause is never relevant. Angry Grimace fucked around with this message at 17:29 on Jan 4, 2016 |
