Enchantment lands are go, now give us some dumb thing with affinity for enchantments so I can die of laughter.

I'm not sure that it would be a good format but you'd remember it.

Seriously these cards rule, and it’s retroactively making most recent sets seem worse because they churn out lovely +1/+1 mechanics instead of you know, cards that rule like these.

I'd like to share what is possibly my finest creation to date: I won zero die rolls, did not miss a land drop before turn 7 or 8 once, and went 7/1 anyway, with the 1 being an easy win on my end if I'd won the die roll or drawn more than literally zero spells. P1P1 Awaken, basically mono-green through the pack. Lili P2P1, Command P2P2. Opened Bolas P3P1. I'm not going to not play Bolas. I only drew it twice but it never rotted in my hand. I even cast it turn 4 once. It died the next turn and I brought it back a few turns later and went on to win at one life. I won three of these games at one life. Almost every card in the deck had a pivotal role in winning at least one game.

If you ever had to redo wasteland, wastes land is not too bad a way to do it.

MC 6 Richmond starts in 5 minutes at https://www.twitch.tv/magic I feel I should point this out because unlike usual, the first three rounds on each day are the interesting ones, because Eldraine pod drafts in the age of Arena bots are gonna be way more interesting than a thousand Oko mirrors and maybe some red aggro or UW Control.

Spreading Wastes, where it's Spreading Seas except costs 1C and turns the land into a Wastes instead of an Island, is a perfectly reasonable card to print and play in certain formats/decks. Evil Presence but Wastes instead of Swamp is just as bad a card as Evil Presence.whydirt posted:Maro has said they’ve tested it and the problem was people accidentally shuffling those lands back into their deck between games. Seems fine now that you can play more cards than you started with game 1.

I don't know if they'd consider giving token cards a different border cut to make them easier to differentiate from normal cards, but that's one potential solution if they're so worried about it

Again I don't really understand this argument. Anyone that's playing these in a real deck is either going to have their cards in sleeves or have their extra lands in different sleeves or whatever.

Except the newbie without sleeves who just added 4 lands accidentally but legally for the rest of the night, since continuous deck building is legit at casual REL

I don't think it's so much an issue of how as why. Making creature tokens open up a lot of design space. The design space between "create a forest token" and "fetch a basic from your deck" is too small to be worth the trouble. Even that test card could just as easily be an artifact that adds a counter to itself in your upkeep and tap for G for each counter. Wastes Land could put a wastes counter on a nonbasic, making it only tap for a colorless. Those definitely are different than their test versions, but in most cases functionally the same without opening up players to game-loss mistakes.

So the cool playtest cards are only at the convention, the rest of us will have something worse in the spot. https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/188903438563/will-the-playtest-cards-be-available-in-the/amp So I'm back to not caring about this.

Als don't forget that the regular version won't be sold until loving March. I'll play a draft or two at GP Brussels in January and ignore the set otherwise I guess.

vegetables posted:Hyping up a product as a mystery, revealing it to have something cool then taking away the cool thing the next day is certainly a creative approach to marketing They are printed versions of playtest proxies. Someone will collate a printable sheet to use in cube construction. We just miss out on the experience of fun, underdeveloped cards in our drafts. Looking over the list, it needs an audience that has memorized quite a few cards. Otherwise, it's "Reprints: The Set - We aren't even going for a theme." It could still be a great thing depending on the reprints.
