DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:before anyone says anything no this is not good enough for affinity The only creatures in Modern Affinity that even share a creature type are Memnite and Steel Overseer, both Constructs. Otherwise there is an amazing zero overlap between the other common pieces. Beast, Soldier, Vedalken Wizard, Pest, Imp. Occasionally there's Spellskite, a Horror, and Ethersworn Canonist, a Human Cleric. The classic guys with the actual affinity keyword are a Frog and a Myr. If there were at least a little tribal unity we'd have to dismiss it for other reasons, but as it stands, Affinity has too many disparate types for this to even begin to help.

That said, as a sexual deviant who likes +1/+1 counter gimmicks and tribal decks, Metallic Mimic gives me two erections.

What would it take for something to slot into Affinity at this point? The only thing I can think of (that isn't just a strictly better card than what's in the deck now) is an equipment that gives you what amounts to Cranial Plating 5-8.

Check out the latest Rosewater comic, he needs to be respectful of the lore, I think http://markrosewater.tumblr.com/image/155306014473

ThePeavstenator posted:Merfolk would sleeve up an entire deck of Seas, Vials, and 2 mana lords if it could Yeah, the real problems are that it's a fairly bad topdeck, does pretty much nothing when vialed in (especially during combat), and doesn't pump Mutavault at all. Possible it'll still take the spot of something like Tidebinder Mage or Harbinger of the Tides but I figure that might be giving up interaction where it's needed.

So they have made the best black removal maybe ever and also put it at uncommon? I honestly think that its possible some poo poo can shaken up from the top down.

fatal push is really good, and I expect it to mess with modern a bit the extra turn energy card, meanwhile, looks kinda weak when marvel exists oh and if the blue "cast a spell with cmc 3 or less for free" card isn't draw 3, wotc needs to reevaluate what the hell they're even doing

This was my first thought. It's the opposite though. It can't move until it's in siege mode.

So is our only new hope thus far in stopping turn 4 Emrakuls just going more aggressive, and some how dodging radiant flames?
