mcmagic posted:WU Flash. Guessing Sickening originally posted B/W out of habit. But might there be a BW deck right now? Besides Mardu Vehicles (Mardu Motors surely?) Perhaps it necessarily has to be midrange, as control will be using Planeswalkers as wincons and those are devalued by Copter?

apparently if you're playing partner dudes as your generals your actual deck only needs to be 98 cards

I saw the non-commander cards and got excited. Then I saw the commanders and I remembered which shitbirds were in charge of this. Thanks, Sheldon, for always being trash.

Sidar reads really weirdly to me. The partner mechanic is a cool way to make 4 color decks but the generals don't seem very impressive. No seriously what the gently caress is going on with Sidar. It basically gives your guys flying in a really confusing way and has another random form of evasion stapled on

So we're going to get one legendary with all 4 colors, and then 2 others in the deck with 2 colors and Partner Neat. Atraxa missing red is also a flavor win.

The partner mechanic, while interesting (oh my god please errata brothers yamazaki to have that keyword) seems a bit of a cop out to the usual 3 commanders per deck since it looks like we're probably getting the pair and one legit 4c per deck Oh and oh loving course the new True Conviction R/W moustache gentleman is an Ally to boot

This thing is so disgustingly open-ended the entire table could have vastly different but equally potent Atraxa decks. ZeroCount posted:I can't believe they finally made the Ox flavour text man into a card. The trigger should be ETB, attacking, or swearing.

I get that they have to be worse but stuff like Kraum isn't even really encouraging you to do anything in particular. I guess it's basically Stormbreath Dragon. It's possible that there are more super obvious teamups like Sidar and Silas though that might help a little.

The design article confirms that they built each 4-color deck by figuring out what the excluded colour hates that the others are fine with. No-White Deck is Chaos. No-Green is Artifacts. No-Blue is aggressive. No-Black is a political group hug deck with pillowfort elements No-Red is all about building up tokens and growth poo poo over time

Okay Wizards, I appreciate that you gave Bruse Tarl a card, and I definitely love that his art is magnificent, but... that is a profoundly uninspired card design. I get that you want RW to be the Turn Dudes Sideways colors (and when I play commander, I play RW Turn Dudes Sideways (or Mardu TDS with Zurgo)), but there has to be a better way. Like... Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder 2RW Legendary Creature - Human Ally At the beginning of your upkeep, create a 0/1 Sheep token Whenever a creature you control attacks, it gets +1/+0 until end of turn for each other attacking creature that shares a creature type with it. Partner 3/3
