Revenge of Ravens is strictly a limited card. You can't spend 4 mana doing nothing and losing to your opponent's existing threats in constructed. It's effectively an enchantment that says "Creatures your opponents control get -1/-0". This is relevant in Eldraine because it's one of the slowest limited formats in modern Magic, there's a ton of life gain, and all the evasive creatures have 2 power (and all the defensive creatures have 5 toughness). Even then it only really shuts the game down completely if there's two of them.

BrianBoitano posted:They commissioned an ad by my best friend carbot This is an amazing video, but more self-aware and parodying than I would've expected from official promo material. AngryBooch posted:
At the omnipresent risk of ing too heavily, most of the humor of that video relies on depicting the mechanical interactions of cards even when they make no sense to the flavor. Most obviously, the chump-blocking sight gag. So Realm-Cloaked Giant makes less sense to me in that light. I can't think of what it would be instead, though-- something that sacrifices lands for power when it comes into play? But I can't think of anything like that currently in Standard. e: Also, a planeswalker getting angry at the mere sight of their opponent's first land is extremely real, but it should be a Breeding Pool for maximum realism in that department.

What about turn 3 Ravens in a Golgari shell I think it depends on the viability of decks with noncreature wincons, with Teferi Hero of Dominaria gone is there any major deck that fits the bill

Today was the first time I've ever seen The Royal Scions played and til one of them is a woman (from the voice lines). The draw 2 deck looks rad as hell but insanely WC heavy.

Speaking of, I've been iterating the Draw-2 list I posted up-thread a ways: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/2307998#paper Now with more Dreadhorde Arcanist! It seems good, gives you a way to proc your draw-two things without using mana and plays super well with Royal Scions

CharlieFoxtrot posted:What about turn 3 Ravens in a Golgari shell Getting Revenge bounced by T3feri is a real bad place to be. Most decks can go over the top of ravens anyway, it might work against cavalcade but then you might be dead anyway or they put down Torbrand and kill you through it.

Mat Cauthon posted:What's the list? It's this garbage though there are variants. Basically every time a creature attacks you if they have a loving 2 CC enchantment, you take 3 damage if the dwarf guy is out, or their firebird gets +3/+0, or they have baby Chandra out and it's 2 every turn plus the elementals, etc etc. It's so loving fast and requires no thought except "turn creatures"

Guy at our store won the wpn qualifier (I'm assuming this is a PTQ but I legitimately have no idea wtf anything is anymore) with bant flash. Apparently he didn't drop a game all day.Tubgoat posted:Mine requires sequencing but the results are exquisite. Remember to play your enchantment BEFORE attacking and do damage before casting your skewers and draw 2s.
