so DOM is coming out soon, have they even revealed the next set's name yet? Haven't we always had a 1-2 set lead on names/locations?

And yeah what you wrote was true for me (7th edition) Mobile didn't want to show the non Drudge Sentinel cards in his post, apparently. qbert posted:Copying an existing spell that you already had to pay for on the stack is way worse than getting to pick a spell to play for free from your graveyard. Unless you're specifically in a counter war or your opponent's playing spell + instant, there's no other reason to copy a counterspell, whereas Gearhulk can be used to counter an opponent's spell in the first place. I don't think it's the same power level, but I do think there are will be some cool play patterns, especially with the 2 CMC difference. Don't know if that's enough, but I hope it is.

I think the old art is OK and I don't have anything against Myrfors--I like what he was able to accomplish with the Dark and it's got, thematically, some of my favorite art design in Magic, but I don't think he was ever one of the better artists working on the game, and I think he'd have agreed

Green is gradually becoming the Good Cantrip color, at least as long as Ponder and Preordain stay banned.

Nephzinho posted:Original art of this card almost got me banned from playing the game entirely the first time my dad saw it. At a school I went to at one point Pokemon cards were banned. In a bid to convince my parents of the injustice, I showed them the creepiest looking MTG cards I could find from the Portal Second Age sample pack my uncle gave me (MTG wasn't banned because no played it there, but that logical inference escaped me). Among them any scary cards I could find with guns, like Prowling Nightstalker, contrasted against cute cards like Charmander   Reflecting on this today, maybe that sort of impulse is the major reason WotC steers clear of guns, rather than creative considerations.

Oh I know. More specifically, I believe it was about not making poorer kids feel left out (i myself barely had any cards but didn't make the connection).

There will never be a Return to Lorwyn because it didn't make money or some poo poo and I guess people would get up and leave drafts because of reasons.

little munchkin posted:In practice it's not going to be much different than negate, which isn't very popular. There's not a ton you can do with untapped blue mana during your opponent's end step. I could see it slotting into a Mystical Teachings deck or something that runs Forbidden Alchemy. Hitting creatures would be better though.

Decided to watch some MTG: A streaming while im at work. How does anybody watch Day9 do anything? He doesn't read anything, runs headfirst into all bait and then complains about it and his chat is always in sub only mode and they're not allowed to tell him he's doing something wrong or bad or stupid because its "spoilers".
