It would mean that brawl won't cannibalise historic too much but sort of add a premium for playing Brawl.

lol my opponent cast Single Combat while I had Korvold, Mayhem Devil, Orzhov Enforcer and another creature in play. They conceded when my triggers went on the stack.

Are BFZ/OGW the actual worst sets in modern? I think it's a case that could be made

BFZ is probably the worst designed set since saviors though In the same vein, Avacyn Restored is probably the worst limited set in Modern and is responsible for Miracles. OGW does also probably have the weakest lore, being the highpoint of wow, the Jacetice League!, but at least it made draft better then 3x BFZ.

I think that might genuinely be the best compromise plan I've seen anywhere. If they really have their heels dug in and don't want to change the ratios at all, I hope they at least extend the deadline beyond November.

remember that a huge portion of modern’s power comes from ZEN-INN, a total of seven sets (plus cores). Worldwake alone had Stoneforge, JTMS, Amulet, allied manlands, eye of ugin, deaths shadow, searing blaze...

Without those you don't have Urza lands, Ensnaring Bridge, Arcbound Ravager, Chalice of the Void or Aether Vial. Even if those sets don't put in the most cards per se the format looks very different without them. (also LOL Worldwake)

Brawl being in Arena already is very exciting. And you can get a playset of 6 different cards for winning 6 games. 24 free cards is pretty sweet even if it's only just for making it more likely that opening packs gives you vault progress.

Gonna be upset if there isn't a bone splinters type card that sacrifices food to kill a creature and has a now you're GingerDEAD flavor text.

That trailer owns, except for garruk eating the gingerbread dude. Would've preferred it be a rando knight set flavour looking great though. Hopefully we get a card that refers to spicing things up with flavour text that refers to flavour

Because Adventuring and casting the creature all occurs at Sorcery speed, I actually don't think its going to be all that confusing. The only surprise about the mechanic to me is that it happens in reverse order - I really thought the Adventure mechanic would open up once the creature was in play. Regardless, looks like a lot of fun for limited

Yeah, I'm not sure how adventuring has memory issues like some people have said. Usually that's something you say about untracked mechanics that last longer than a turn, which adventuring is not.

seriously though, there is a valid reason to complain about adventure memory issues being a pain in the rear end. come on wizards, at least do something lazy like "exile it with an adventure counter on it."

Ultimately it just means you keep your adventure pile separate from your other exile pile. I bet there will be little or no other exile in the set so it won't matter in limited
