No, Mishra. It was Urza who told me about you. He's the prophet. He's the smart one. You're just the afterbirth.

Zombie Urza risen to fight the Phyrexians who have used planeswalkers to summon and compleat Nicol Bolas and Emrakul would make me interested in the MtG story for the first time since 1997.

What about regular Urza time-traveled from the moment of his Sylex blast to the present via Teferi shenanigans, versus all those things?

You know, I didn't think much about the new Tyvar when I first saw him, but my buddy pointed out that he plays really nice with Devoted Druid stuff in Modern:


I might try him in a Hermit shell for EDH.

Ooooh yeah he's like a Thousand Year Elixir that can reanimate small things, that's an extremely powerful card in the right deck. With all the new poo poo coming out constantly this one flew right by me.

I enjoy how there are like 27 different pieces of solid graveyard hate that all function slightly differently. Must suck playing against and having to remember how every single one works and is circumvented though.

You really don't need to care. You only need to worry about the one you actually see them play, which you can do just by reading the card as they play it.

The many and varied differences between them only really matter when you're deciding which one to put in your deck.

It also stops suspend and cascade and a lot of ways things cast for free, like Bring to Light. It nails every Breach line I can think of.

And, yeah, it's got a body that doesn't die to bolt and can grab a sword. Pretty good.

It completely fucks my Prosper deck where I pretty much depend on Laylia(sp?) Blade Reforged to beat some face, help generate treasure to get Revel in Riches to wincon. So it's not bad.

It also stops any "exile x cards from the top of your library, you may cast them this turn" effects that any burn decks might be relying on

Oh, yeah, I hadn't thought of that, it's actually oddly good against mono Red on historic.

Could go the other way, since all of the heroes that know where Emrakul is (Jace, Tamiyo, Nissa) and who are good at summoning big monsters across planes (Lukka, Nahiri) are getting bodyhorrored. Also IIRC Jace is the one that Ugin left instructions with about the Prison Zone, right? Ugin has to figure in to the story somehow, given that colorless magic might have some advantage now that all the Phyrexians are rocking their technicolor dreamcoats.

I built a colorless Eldrazi/Phyrexia commander list because honestly the idea of the two Big Bads coming together was hilarious to me and I'm sorta pumped to play it this weekend, considering it's the first physical deck I've built in ages.

Tyvar seems kinda nuts for decks that want to run Kinnan or other mana dorks. The more I think about it, the more I like it.

Apparently the game’s lore and mechanics are changing forever with this March of the Machine set. Idk much about the lore, but I wonder what the big mechanical change is? Decoupling the legend rule from legendaries?

I've seen a few bits of speculation mostly around the legendary supertype getting retired, but the thing that's stuck in my head is that they may be retiring planeswalkers. I fully expect it to be something much less wild than that, though.

I think Rosewater has also said something to that effect when questioned - that the "big" changes are both to the lore and to the mechanics of the game.
