I gotta say, the fact that this can tutor for living end even when you have no creatures in the yard doesn't seem super relevant given living end's text

Went 3-0 tonight in Dominaria draft. Went and drafted green-white and put together a saproling token build with a Shalai, Pegasus Coursers, and the 3/2 Avens.

If you don't know the name of the card, look it up from the number and set number, those are the same in every language. Thanks! You two just made me $25

This would be more interesting if either side of this is attached to a different split card. Copying spells is rarely worth the extra card and mana investment (if it's your spell it's rarely worth the extra card and mana, if it's the opponent's spell most of the time you'd rather just counter it then mirror the effect) but when it's good it can be really good. Meanwhile, while UURR is generally way too goddamn much to have to invest before even seeing anything out of the other side I could see it being an interesting option to have for a game running long for U/R Wizards or something as a way to blow a thing up and get some fuel back in your hand. Both of these are options I would be cool to have attached to a spell you're more likely to cast but, well, since they're stapled together it's just a junk rare unless something really wacky goes on with Standard.

Limited plants. The more control-oriented ones like Dimir will probably be happy to run one to ramp and eventually sac for cards- as long as the format isn't so fast that you're going to get run over for spending turn 3 playing a mana rock, they'll be ok. (I see you there, Boros...) These are worse for splashing then Cluestones since you need four colored mana symbols to crack them for cards but you'll still probably grab ones in your splash color if you're running a 3+ color deck just to have a colorless way to fix. Unlike Cluestones, the cost to crack for a card is also prohibitive enough that I can't imagine running more then one in anything but a dedicated ramp deck.

I wonder if they are planning on printing something that would loop Vivid Revival, since the only historical card that does at anything approaching a reasonable rate is Izzet Chronarch.

It's all hybrid costs, so I guess it helps you splash? Like if you have a UR deck with a W splash, the Boros one can help you cast your white spells, but you could spend RRRW to draw cards off it if you've already found your Plains.

I would say almost certainly not, even if you could pay a creature deck of only gold critters. Unless something good with an effect like Champion of Wits that gets value from being bigger. Suppose it might help grow Mentor guys so they can impart more counters on the smaller guys.

I only just noticed it's uncommon, so it seems fine to excellent in limited and being just a 6/6 vanilla on the field probably not meant as a constructed card.

The problem is this doesn't really do anything worth jumping through hoops for, it's just a big dumb idiot. Like, you could play a bunch of bad synergy cards to fill your graveyard with creatures, in order to accelerate this guy out on turn 4, or you could just ... play the 4 mana 6/6 hexproof dude.

There might be a GY deck but I don't know if it makes it, being just a vanilla 6/6 body and unlikely to be cast before t5. Unless you can really get something out of grabbing a land. Perhaps a Gate interaction or recurring sac lands.

the hoops you jump through for Tarmogoyf are literally "play the cards you wanted to play anyway". I guess for Gurmag Angler the hoop is "play the cards you wanted to play anyway, but also put a very slightly suboptimal cantrip in your deck if it's Modern" Like, I actually do agree; I do think this card is worth keeping an eye on and even in older formats it could possibly fit in somewhere, but I think it's probably costed safely enough to not make it. The thing is, it's much easier to fill your graveyard with random cards than with specifically creatures that quickly.
