That's either a relatively small giant or a pretty beefy lobster, and I can't tell which it is.

This extended art poo poo with the lame gradient to black looks so bad. Just do full frame already. :barf:
I think its hilarious that they crop the art when making these "full art" cards. So, you get less of the picture, but it's slightly larger? What a premium product.

They get to double dip by differentiating between extended art and full art though. :homebrew:

Also lolling at people who paid $100+ for three visits in order to squeeze .01 EV out of a green commander deck only to see them reprint it at uncommon.

They've still got the P3K version and thus are better than you, that's where the EV is.

Imagine if they did and entire set that was textless art. A real "masters" set as you might say. I would imagine a set like that would print money even with a card list that was pretty medium.

I feel like even without tutoring for it, it's still almost an auto include if you have one.

It's a stupid loving moneygrab (a Mythic every deck plays, really?) and will make gameplay actively worse so good job WotC I guess. I was wondering when they'd finally spoil a card that breaks the format in half.

Swamp, Mana Crypt, Acquisition Agent, play new lotus, play Maralen from the command zone. No opponent on the table can draw or search their library.

Or just Mountain, Mana Crypt, New Lotus, Play Godo, fetch helm of the host, win the game.

Unban black lotus and the moxen because apparently commander os immune from fast mana ruining games* like it does everyother format.

Sol Ring, Crypt and Vault are all ostensibly fine in commander so there's no reason Lotus shouldn't be. I'm pretty sure price is the only reason it's banned.

(Moxen being banned is slightly more legit in that decks with more colours have access to more of them, but only slightly.)

*Cards! Because the set also prints like 30 new partners and having nine cards in hand is better than having eight cards.

Lotus adds colored mana.

Commander is Magic the Gatherings hottest format. Pick your commander and choose from nearly every card in Magic history to fill out the 10 spots in your deck that aren’t auto-includes.

ehhh

technically all low-content posts, including emptyquotes, are against the sitewide rules, which are excepted in specific subs like FYAD and maybe others (BYOB? YOSPOS? gently caress if I know).

That said, I don't really give a poo poo if the occasional emptyquote happens. If it turns into a flood or derails threads or someone's only contributions seem to be contentless, that crosses a line.

So emptyquote/low-content post at your own risk, with the knowledge that I'm not inclined to be a relentless hardass about it, but you could totally cop a sixer if you make a bad habit of it.
