More like people kept telling him that "Hound is fine" and he took it as a personal insult to make dog a creature type. And then wanted to show the world Companion was fine after being told over and over it wasn't a good idea across decades and, well, Ikoria.

Commander Legends full gallery is up: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-image-gallery/commander-legends I haven't been following much, like everyone else I don't care about a physical-only product I'm never going to draft. At first glance it looks full of things that are going to warp Commander and somehow other cards that are too embarrassing to have in a Commander deck but probably fill out a draft deck. And not much in between.

I feel like this thread is just going to be infinite mad at any WotC employee that doesn't immediately go "you are right, we suck, why do you even keep playing this dumb game oh god we're so bad at making it". It doesn't really matter who they are or what cards they designed that you didn't like very much Edit: Bloodchief's Thirst is pretty great in Historic Arcanist decks, since you can always pay the kicker, and it hits planeswalkers, and you're going to be casting it from the GY on your turn anyway, so it being a sorcery isn't as bad. I don't know if my deck would be able to trigger Fatal Push's revolt consistently enough without 8 fetch lands. I feel like there are a lot of times where it would just be easier to pay 3 more mana.

That would actually be rad if it happened at instant speed and put them on top or shuffled into the top X. Cool Ancestral, bro. *Puts 3 blank cards on top of your deck*

I’ll bet we see a mechanic akin to dominions curses at some point. Even with the sleeve complications, there’s too much design space to ignore it. You could even have a mechanic that places ‘token cards’ on top of decks that have effects when drawn, either as a reward for missing a draw, or as a further penalty. Like when 5/5 for W comes into play, place a token card with the text ‘target player discards a card when this is drawn’ on top of your library. If this would leave the top of the library except for being drawn, exile it.

I don't think they want even more incentive to have ways to shuffle your deck for free. Usually that sort of thing would be a "the next time target player would draw a card, instead they ..." replacement effect.

Pirate tribal is cool but it kinda annoys me that blue and black only got one rogue apiece (albeit pretty nice ones) right on the heels of the Zendikar rogue Commander deck.

I feel like helm of the host and Rest In Peace is a lil apples to oranges. Ones an instant win for a pet deck and the other is one of the most impactful hate cards ever printed. It’s degrees of subtlety, yknow? EDIT: Like helm of the host is a weird neat interaction, RIP is just 1w: people aren’t allowed to do things I don’t like. Also while the phyrexian cosplay is bad Gavin literally dresses up like jace any chance he gets, kind of a wash. dangerburrd fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Nov 5, 2020 |

You could probably have a cranial variant enchantment where you name a card on ETB, then opponent has to reveal each draw or play with the top card showing, and if they would draw it exile it instead. They probably wouldn't make it cost your draw, though.

more to the point, graveyard strats are so insanely busted in all the non-rotating formats that rest in peace is the only card good enough to actually stop them (apart from leyline of the void, the strictly better rest in peace, because black still gets to do everything white does but better)

That’s true in modern. In legacy bug shadow is good. Grixis shadow gets better the more degenerate a format gets with combo or titan(pre field) or tron. When you can thoughtseize -> stub -> gurmag -> win it’s good. You will run out of resources trying to fight through Uro/omnath all day
