Angry Grimace posted:People are confusing an effect not being printed with "too good for standard." It's not, they just want to encourage decks to exist that aren't mono-red with bolts to the face for reach. I think we'll see some new stuff in red over the next year or two. It seems like they wanted to figure out what red looks like without a few of its most common tools and the answer is "bad"

There are more cards in Eldritch Moon that specifically care about Eldrazi than there are in Oath of the Gatewatch. This set looks kind of lame so far, tbh. I mean, its not BFZ level lame or anything, but it certainly looks like a big step down from Shadows Over Innistrad so far.

AlternateNu posted:*blink* This goes nicely with Call the Bloodline. Flash her out for 1BBB at the end of their turn, sacrifice 2 chumps plus the one you just made, kill 3 of their guys and swing for 6. Her flip side is the same as an Heir of Falkenrath that flipped with a Neglected Heirloom, minus first strike. She would make another fun addition to my BW Transformers deck. How many cards in EMN are dfc's?

They usually look something like this: http://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/436597#online And Experiment One would be the card they replace. I think something more like the bushwhacker 1 drop deck would benefit from this more. It's not as good as some other 1 drops like Experiment One when things go to plan but the ability to be relevant in the late game makes up for that I feel.

I'm cool with the color pie being experimented with if it involves adding risky new things and not taking away staple effects from each color.

Rinkles posted:New Lili PW art? Hah, fully half of the zombies in this art are going 'phwoar, check out that arse'. In regards to comments on Liliana's dresswear in some artwork, it's been a while since I read any of her material; but isn't part of her character that she's a slag? I've got to say this set looks super fun for Limited so far. Lots of cool combat and casting tricks, fun flavour, nice art, plenty of callbacks. I'm disappointed that Meld is Draft irrelevant, but the individual halves are decent enough that I can live with it.

The one drops you run in that are Dryad Militant and E-One, maybe Young Wolf if you're super low curve/dumb. This is not better than the first two.

Irony Be My Shield posted:Getting another Savannah Lions may let the deck have a lower curve. ...It really doesn't need it though. Everything else in the deck has great synergy (E-Ones and Geists make your Avatars big, everything boosts your E-One, lots of GGs and GGGs to make Aspect of Hydra a Become Immense.) I wouldn't call any card in the deck worse than that. When your goal is to Rancor/Vines/Aspect, having a 2/1 that would only grow in a worse-case scenario is not great. I wouldn't play that over the Militant in an unknown meta.

Transform goes onto the stack before the creature transforms. If you Grasp the creature before the transform trigger resolves, it will never transform before it dies.
