I wonder if we're gonna get another series of color self-hosers like the Defeats or the Theros cycle.

This is phenomenal. Also they are really killing it with the flavor in this set.

I love Once Upon a Time. I would have figured a Fairy Godmother would be more pwnage than a 1/1 flyer.

Would you be able to cast once upon a time on turn 1 or would you need to have enough resources to possibly cast it before being able to do it for free?

Mat Cauthon posted:This is phenomenal. If blue is "Counter target spell" can you make it 1UU? It's free cost is narrow for Standard and we've seen strictly better Cancel be playable a hundred times. It probably has to be a 1UU negate, though. Catching aggro's one-drop from the draw for no mana is probably too good even for Standard.

Transforming the pumpkin back and forth to a carriage is great, but the juxtaposition with Turn Into a Pumpkin is odd. Are you turning actual living knights into a pumpkin? They can come back later, but you get to keep the pumpkin if you used enough blue mana.

Someone find the edge case where the draw player being able to play it on their opponent's first turn somehow matters.

I can't decide if this is great or awful in Infect, it's probably bad but nice that it can potentially get all of your infectors.

The Making Magic article is a great read. - There was originally just a Camelot set, but Magic's done High Fantasy so often. Playtesters didn't even notice they were playing a Camelot set because they just had a Knights deck, and Knights are everywhere in Magic. The average person also can't name more than about a dozen things to do with Camelot's stories. The Fairy Tale set combining with it gave the Knights something to fight. - These cards make up the Cinderella story. Read the article, it's really neat. They experimented with a lot of key points of the story making it into cards, so even though he didn't say it, there's lots of material for a Return to Eldraine set. - There's lots of overlap between fairy tales, like most stories have a handsome prince, the Big Bad Wolf is in Red Riding Hood and also The Three Little Pigs, etc. That made it easier to make cards that satisfy multiple stories, because you can have one card represent multiple fairy tale tropes. Rumpelstiltskin and the spinning wheel are mentioned, so it's likely he's getting a card. Other things mentioned are the Black Knight, the cow that got traded for magic beans, and of course the Gingerbread Man.

There's a little bit of "when should I cast the spell" because you don't always want to slam it right away, if you don't have 1-drops you want to cast on turn one You might draw running lands turn one and two, and now when you cast it as your first spell of the game on Turn 2, you know that you're fishing for a creature instead of a land. resistentialism posted:Someone find the edge case where the draw player being able to play it on their opponent's first turn somehow matters. Plays around Force of Negation

Like, having your turn one play is so crucial, but is it worth having a nearly dead card in your hand in multiples? Can't wait to play it.

Can't you just slot this in as copies 5-8 of any creature combo piece? So long as you're trying to go off fast.

I had a similar thought for Valakut, which already has a couple of ramp spell flex spots. But it seems like it should be run as a four-of even though it might be worse than a ramp spell after turn 1.

I always assumed MaRo gets whatever he wants eventually. Who in the pitch room was going to like, off-handedly slide HIS entire premise into the trash can based on a 2-3 minute presentation. "What if we just knock off a bunch of Disney movies but with names like, Alsa, the Frigid Queen or whatever," is pretty much all any sensible room should have needed to hear.

Sickening posted:"OR LAND" You're going to play Sylvan scrying and ancient stirrings before this and you probably still need eggs so that you can make mana for those cards as consistently as possible. I can read the card, if you hit only lands then it's really bad.

Maybe it's meant to be a drop in replacement if they ban ancient stirrings?

My dream is that one of these goofy cards gets pushed as hell and ends up being a multi-format staple. Imagine if the names/art for Bake Into a Pie and Assassin’s Trophy flipped.
