I could see this seeing play in vintage. Tap a bunch of moxen for mana, bounce them and a snapcaster back, maybe a revoker, draw a bunch of cards, replay them again and have a new hand and a really big storm count.

Oh no, this is really good for my mono-black Oloro deck. Actually, this seems really good for Duel Commander, where a lot of decks will just be able to kill on turn four.

Would it really have killed them to put Shock on a stick rather than Lava Dart? I'm a red player who's never satisified

Infinite life gain finally has a wincon other than the opponent conceding. I like it. Also, weird that not all the puzzleknots do the same thing (some give energy, some don't).

I like the reservoir, but it also makes me angry because there's one smug rear end in a top hat at my LGS that plays a janky-rear end B/w life drain deck, and I know he's going to think his deck will be amazing with this new card.

It seems that energy is primary in blue and green, though all colors get it (much like morph). Those effects are also a lot smaller than the others; get two 1/1s, deal two damage, and draw two cards are all worth a card, while gain 6 life and scry two twice aren't.

The blue and black ones seem really good. The red and white ones seem pretty mediocre. Looking back at the green one it's probably alright and it gets better if you need energy. The reservoir is indeed hillarious. Too bad it won't be around with Whisperwood Elemental and Mastery of the Unseen.

En Fuego posted:Also, gently caress Oloro. My Oloro deck is mono-black so I have the duals and can also play "mono black" cards I got Sheldon'd out of playing such as Memory Plunder, Oona, Divinity of Pride, Phyrexian Metamorph, etc. It's more fair and interesting than Esper Control Oloro, but I still never play it because Commander is terrible unless you're playing with friends and my friends all moved into other games that were actually designed for multiplayer.

Irony Be My Shield posted:5 mana Sign in Blood doesn't seem like a good deal to me. The closest comparison I can think of is Think Twice - you have to pay for the first half at sorcery speed, but it doesn't have any color requirements, and it's in a color which is less likely to get that sort of incremental spell (plus it's an artifact). I think it synergizes well with Grim Flayer, and it's possible it makes its way into a G/B deck of some kind.

The puzzleknots are a really bizarre choice to reveal now because they are targeted at limited, but they're the kind of cards whose playability is heavily context dependent. Cards like Voltaic brawler, which I assume is part of a cycle, would make much more sense to reveal.

If they all gave a bit of energy like the green and blue ones do, that'd be rad. Hell, it seems like the rest should.

The reason Think Twice was good was because it fits into a deck that wants to play mostly on the opponent's turn - that mana would often otherwise go to waste, so being incremental + instant speed mitigated a lot of the cost factor. The top end was also cheaper than what the combined effect would normally cost - as it is, why not just play Succumb to Temptation? Being an artifact for Delirium might help, but with the way the set is looking G/B decks may well find other artifacts that stand on their own merits to include. (e: like maybe Big Nekrataal)

I look forward to ALL of them tanking at least 50% before the PT and one of them rocketing to double their preorder price afterwards.
