Didn't you hear? Leyline Binding is the best removal since Swords to Plowshares, no kap.

Mat Cauthon posted:Lash of Infusion from Strixhaven does basically the same thing, interesting that they're spreading that sort of effect around color wise. Flowstone Infusion is probably a one-off, as a callback to Flowstone cards from Nemesis which were red cards that gave +X/-X (mostly creatures that did that to themselves).

Are these knights, as much as they want to evoke the classic White and Black Knights, actually better than them?

I was going to spend 30 bucks going to an RCQ tomorrow but then I was reminded that would mean Omnath so instead I bought the ingredients to bake a cake. This has been my exprience with Magic the last few months, I'd rather look at and craft around the game but the very thought of even playing has become demoralizing.

Panderfringe posted:The parts I really enjoyed about the game are dying, of not totally dead. Limited is still fun occasionally, but that can't really hold my attention for more than a couple weeks. Panderfringe posted:They're going to kill standard on arena. They'll keep it in paper, since a rotating format means they make more money. Given modern's popularity I think they're going to support competitive play more than they planned to when they killed the MPL, and figure they might as well have standard in paper again. But yeah, it's gone from Arena by the end of 2022, no question. Pioneer also isn't coming to Arena, at least not the paper version. If we get anything then we're getting an "alchemy" Pioneer. i dont think this posters opinion about mtg should be taken seriously

Modern was the only format I really enjoyed and it's just been pretty miserable since mh2 power crept most of the fun jank I played out of the format, and with Omnath running around it's even less appealing Did pick up the new elf lord and the enchantment board wipe, at least there's a few new things to try

babypolis posted:what other commons stand out besides the flying organ hoarder to you all. nothing else has grabbed my attention so far Benalish Sleeper is an interesting riff on the effect by making it optional, and one of the few kicker cards in this set worth the cmc kicked or unkicked. Yavimaya Steelcrusher is a straight upgrade to Torch Fiend and Reckless Reveler, having 1 more toughness, a colorless sacrifice cost, and Enlist. Shadow Prophecy comes drat close to something between Dig Through Time and Fact or Fiction with full domain. Smash to Dust is a bad Abrade but having two very different types of removal as modes on a single card is always worth consideration. Shield-Wall Sentinel is a weird creature tutor but a unique one. Shore Up untaps the creature which is new for the cheap hexproof spell. On the more Melvin side, Haunting Figment is the first blue creature with Vigilance since Planar Chaos, the deliberate out-of-color-things set, which is an interesting development in giving blue creatures keywords besides flying and ward. Samite Herbalist is just a charming design, working both when attacking or being enlisted but without spelling either out.
