I'll admit, it took me until literally just now to see the joke with Incite Insight's design. If they'd kept the mana the same I'm sure I would have seen it immediately!

I'm not seeing the relation other than both being blue spells with X in their mana cost.

Oh man that seems fun. I initially rolled my eyes when they announced another Un-set, but they're really taking a tack of "This is for stuff that just doesn't work in Normal Magic" instead of "Have a bunch of dumb jokes", and I'm really digging it.

I would much rather play "Magic with crazy cards that don't work under regular rules and also are funny" than "Magic with stupid joke cards that aren't very fun to play *cough*Gotcha*cough*". So I'm stoked as heck for Unstable.

Both of these own. The Seraph I could see being a real card, or something that works in a similar manner.

Grand Calcutron's wording is awkward if you have multiple in play(through either Mirror Gallery or literally in this set, the DIY Angel)

These cards are awesome. Feels almost more like Future Sight 2 than it does an Unset.

I like that they're giving spoilers to very nonstandard sources. Also, this is probably the most resilient 1/1 in the game.

it dies to destroy effects, but lives through -x/-x, which is probably less resilient than Stuffy Doll overall

that said it's also a Platinum Angel, which is a bit more important

so how the gently caress do you get rid of it? bounce or exile? I know its an un-set and all but that card seems crazy.

Are you ready to have a -12/-12 on the board when someone gets real feel bads about targeting your Rules Lawyer with capital punishment?
