I like how much worse this card is than Renegade Freighter Like, actually like, because that card was stupid Tainen posted:A note from the mechanics article. There are no double faced creatures in the set. also I like how this draws the game if it's the only artifact or creature in play

They can probably fix it with a clarification on how "until" works. So if it would exile itself and then immediately unexile itself (since it's no longer in play), instead it does nothing.

I am not sure what that has to do with anything though, but figured if you're pointing it out it might relevant. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

When does the Planeswalker uniqueness rule actually change? I feel like I'm missing the obvious somewhere.

This really isn't the hill you want to die on. Unless it is, in which case you should just do it and stop bothering us.

So now I can play Gideon of the Trials, Gideon AoZ, and Gideon Jura in the same deck without having nearly the deckbuilding restrictions as before? Could that Gideon tribal deck actually be decent now that it means you don't always have a bunch of dead cards in hand? It's kinda hard to kill 1 gideon a lot of the time, making an emblem and having 3 out at once to kill sounds pretty stupid.

Jace, Cunning Castaway's copies can still make more copies, an endless series of Jaces drawing one card each and making more Jaces to do the same. If one makes an illusion the others shun him for his foibles.

New graveyard hate. Seems to be focused on standard, shutting down embalm and aftermath. Probably just worse than Cage in modern, but shutting down viscera seer shenanigans might give it legs. Torpor Orb stapled to a irrelevant body. I guess dodging quasili pridemage is neat. Dark Confidant variant that you don't need to untap with. Maybe if you put hate cards in the same set as the broken mechanics instead of waiting a full year, you wouldn't have to ban so many things. Wizards never disappoins when it comes to red mythics and rare enchantments.

Also if Explore is a mechanic do you think they would reprint Explore the card?

dragon enthusiast posted:Doubling Season for crisis on infinite nerds This would let you make an arbitrarily large amount of Jaces, and since one creates two, this means every other Jace is free to draw a card or create an Illusion, so you could make an arbitrarily large number of creatures on board as well. Crisis on Infinite Nerds isn't the worst plan I've ever heard of, but like a lot of Doubling Season plays it's probably not actually good.

Hushwing griff has been around for a couple years and nobody uses it. It costs 1 less but at least it has flash too. Most of the chord/company decks would be hurt by the thing being on the field, maybe less so with druid/vizier combo now.

In a non-shitposting related topic - I am loving the change to Planeswalkers. Sure, it does change the game in rather dramatic way, but it also puts them in line with the Legendary rule, which is neat and tidy. Also my canadian highlander G/B control can now have 3 Lilianas, 2 Nissas and 3 Garruks out at the same time, so I'm not complaining about it any time soon.

evilweasel posted:that lets you run it as a sideboard card in decks that rely on chord of calling/coco to grab their silver bullets, like elves. Yeah, it's actually really good. While it's super antisynergetic with the birthing pod-style Company decks (which is one of the first places that looks for silver bullet creatures), anything that has chord/company and doesn't itself rely on ETB triggers is gonna give this serious consideration.
