Pac-Manioc Root posted:Interesting. So in playtest was there an "any color" casting component or was everything full devotion all the time? Umm, not sure what you are saying. 2U pre-alpha is the exact same as 1U in print. It was just that the number in front was the CMC and the letters represented colored costs, so you had to math it our every time which they realized was dumb, so they fixed it.

So like. Is that itsy-bitsy inclusivity video all WotC is doing in response to HQ, or are they actually going to do something about him? Far as I can see, he has all of his social media outlets going just as strong as before, if not stronger due to the influx of fedoras he has supporting him. He has endless amounts of content bitching about everything, but I'm not interested in listening to his vocal diarrhea.

It would be a fun excercise to template these in the modern parlance. "Whenever target player would begin their next turn, skip that turn instead."?

Lone Goat posted:Huh, Vraska is a aligned with vampires now? Well Vraska's probably not going to be in RIX, so it's probably just a semi-random card. Nissa was UG in Amonkhet, but had a HOU intro card that was mono-green. Glad to see we loving finally got another Rakdos Planeswalker though. The only other one is Sarkhan the Mad from 7 years ago.

Tainen posted:But like Reid and Huey were joking right... Sadly no. He made an EV calculation about how much his deck would improve with a Burst Lightning vs. being able to attend more GPs during the year. And he was pretty much universally shat upon by the pro community, who suddenly were less concerned about "value" and for some reason unsympathetic to his argument of "I still have to buy my own plane tickets."

(Obviously Huey probably didn't literally lose all respect for Pascal for that Goyf decision, but I find that phrase to be comically over-the-top considering how often people use it)

Pac-Manioc Root posted:Turning all your creatures into Phage is a fun and cool ultimate. Original playtest cards had a different mana cost formatting where "2U" meant "2 mana, one of which must be U". If you look up alpha playtest cards there's "Angel" which is a 4/4 flying that doesn't tap on attacks for "5WW".
