All planes in the multiverse are either shitholes or run by shitheads. Much like the real world, actually.

Does Oona not run Lorwyn anymore, because she's kind of a shithead

Kaladesh seems fine since the victorious good (and bad) guys in that conflict had no depth and thus no way of being evil

Star Man posted:All planes in the multiverse are either shitholes or run by shitheads. Last we saw Dominaria was a wasteland. I saw a developer comment that the new Core Set was originally going to be the second Dominaria Set and that unless it bombs it’s probably going back in the rotation of planes we see more often because they came up with a bunch of new ideas for Dominaria.

Jhoira got up to some accidental fuckery with the time portals that basically slowed her aging waaaaaaaay the hell down, to the order of a second taking years. I believe she got together with Jodah, who was similarly ageless.

Star Man posted:Something tells me that a sequel to Fallen Empires would be pretty miserable. Well, Hymn and Goblin Grenade would probably find a home in Standard pretty quickly if reprinted. And no need to apologize, the merit of dad jokes is they come pre-ruined. Tubgoat posted:Fallen Empires 2 would actually have more powerful cards than the original. Honestly even if tide counters made Homorids go from "pretty good" to "really good" instead of "bad" to "slightly less bad," it wouldn't be a good mechanic. It's just busywork bookkeeping. Thrulls could be cool to see again. Saclands could be re-worked to something people would use. Storage lands probably not. Owlbear Camus fucked around with this message at 16:08 on Dec 26, 2017 |

Tubgoat posted:Would this be horrifically broken? Probably a little too good in my far from expert opinion. Being able to make turns where you miss your curve drop into ramp built into the land would be pretty great, and even baseline this is an incredibly reliable and self-contained turn 2 3-drop enabler since turn 1 you're most likely gonna use the storage ability.

Pac-Manioc Root posted:Probably a little too good in my far from expert opinion. You can’t play a turn 2 3-drop with this theoretical version. I think they are probably fine. They probably wouldn’t even be auto 4-ofs, except maybe in monocolor decks.

Tubgoat posted:Would this be horrifically broken? Losing the activation cost to put a storage counter on seems reasonable for being monocolored instead of two color like the TSP storage lands, but then again the TSP lands saw plenty of play in decks that only used them to generate one color so maybe losing the activation cost is too much of a boost. Pac-Manioc Root posted:this is an incredibly reliable and self-contained turn 2 3-drop enabler since turn 1 you're most likely gonna use the storage ability. Unless I'm blind there's no way to tap to add the second counter and then tap to take 2 counters off on turn 2.

Pac-Manioc Root posted:Probably a little too good in my far from expert opinion. You need to store twice before it gives any ramp, though. So it'll tap for 2 on turn 3 if you spend turns one and two adding storage counters. It honestly seems kinda mediocre, imo.

Yeah, I'm a big idiot. In light of the fact that I messed up on uh... counting, it's probably something that would still be safe to print. It's still pretty good, but probably not too good. Still seems like it's a 4-of replacement for basic lands unless you care about the subtype for fetching or whatever, since it's "basic land, plus you can squirrel away mana to still play magic if you get stuck on 2 lands for a few turns."
