Commander and "Standard" Ikoria spoilers happening at the same time is dumb, especially since the Commander set doesn't release for another six weeks outside of Asia due to Corona. I get that they want to get spoiler season done before April 17th but it's confusing as gently caress.

It's almost like the Commander cards should be posted in the...............Commander thread

One or two of these might break out into Legacy or Vintage.

I can finally make a dog theme deck to go with my cat one!

There aren't a ton of good playable dog cards though. I might have to branch out into wolves. The typical domesticated dog type card is very rare in Magic, a lot of them are white and/or really bad.

With the above in mind remember that a card based around Sharknado made it into the set

Or you can just play Mowu, and then the rest of the deck is toys for your dog to play with like Umezawa’s Jitte (stick) or Myr Battlesphere (ball)

I like the toy idea! I already have Basilisk Collar and Bonded Fetch on the list. It's going to be nowhere as synergistic as the cat deck, but at least I'll be playing my opponents' cards.

Hmmm, choose even and get protection from Nissa Lands and Krasis or Odd and get protection from Cats, Devils, Uro and Teferi.

Weird card.

I agree, though. They're always so weirdly costed too, like giving your opponents the opportunity to screw you over is somehow a good thing.

It confused me at first because Theros had special commander style cards that were technically part of the set and could be used in standard, but were only available in special packs or some poo poo like that. I don't even know if something like that is going on or not, or if some of these C20 cards where something similar.

I'm 99% sure that C20 is a completely separate product with no Ikoria overlap, but I'm not 100% sure. With all of the extended art boosters, box toppers, Godzillas, and whatever the gently caress else flying around; I can't be sure if there's something I don't know.

I said it once before but I'm looking at my old $20 (at the time) gimmick Fluctuator Legacy deck some goon cooked up back around like RtR block and I'm cackling like a fiend.

e: Posted before reading the last page and whta the gently caress I thought that card was on the reserve list being a rare from urza block
