I had this weird feeling they would pick either karakas or rishidan port.. so of course they picked the card I already have. I hope this doesn't mean no port reprint.

Yeah the chances of Port just went down a ton but no reprint there would shock me since it's the most expensive card on MtGO. Port is literally 50$ more expensive than Black Lotus.

I for one wouldn't mind owning a Karakas for Not A Buck 20. I feel like it was worth more than that. I might be thinking of Tabernacle though. Granted since Karakas got reprinted Mana Drain is too right?

ANT in sideboard, Painter main, 12post main, and there's some other smattering of legacy decks. Many vintage decks play it since it combos really well with Mentor, and Mentor is the main win con at the moment.

Okay, okay, Jesus! :P I took it out of my cube-in-progress for gameplay reasons. Speaking of my cube-in-progress hopefully EMA gives me the means and push to finally finish it (and then never play it because the local community is small ).

I don't think Top being in this set means that it can't also be banned in Legacy soon.

mcmagic posted:I don't think Top being in this set means that it can't also be banned in Legacy soon. This is true but it points more towards them banning Terminus (if they don't want the deck to be dead dead) or Counterbalance (otherwise) as the bans they're looking at if they ban anything from Miracles.

Either of those cards being banned would be super dumb. If you want to play either of them without Top, go right ahead. Top is the reason that deck sucks. (And for gameplay reasons, not power level.)

(And for gameplay reasons, not power level.) Banning Terminus makes the hard control deck actually have a weakness to aggressive decks, as it's supposed to. Make them play actual 4 mana sorcery wraths if they want board wipes, not instant speed 1 mana ones. e; also confirmed is that these are normal foil packs, not MM2 garbage cardboard ones.

Terminus is legal in Modern BTW and sees zero play. Because, Top.

Yes but as we just discussed, Top sees play in other decks as well, and if you ban top you'll still see the top-like effects see play (The blue and green enchantments are the ones I'm thinking of). Sure they're not as powerful, but they'll take just as long logistically.

Not really. It's a one of in SOME Ant decks. thats about it. And no, those enchantments don't take as long. They are once, on your upkeep, not over and over again on both your and your opponenets turns. mcmagic fucked around with this message at 16:40 on May 24, 2016 |

Oh look we have a slightly better Plains at mythic. Also the new Elf/Symbiote art and people whining about Top at rare or in general are all stupid. Enforce slow play rules and all the problems will be solved. Someone post when Port is eliminated from being in the set so I can completely stop caring about it.

Jenx posted:Yes, they are. The style guides make sense in a block for world building purposes, that doesn't apply for reprint sets. The world of Scourge is long gone and the names are generic enough to apply to anywhere; it makes more sense than having a mix of green and non-green elves.
