Phasing is really good, but I suppose flickering until next upkeep fills the same niche with the added bonus of doing cool things with ETBs and LTBs

That vampire seems like something you'll put in a lot of not-vampire decks and get some mild synergy from at worst. More incidental exile is nice.GeneX posted:Phasing is really good, but I suppose flickering until next upkeep fills the same niche with the added bonus of doing cool things with ETBs and LTBs Hopefully the rules being cleaned up leads to it seeing more use in later products.

I wonder if this is a plant and return to Dominaria includes phasing. Mirage was one of my all time favorite sets, and I'd be curious to see what phasing would look like in the modern era, especially since it was not well understood back when it was released, to say the least.

Phasing out is also pretty elegant, in a way that phasing on a card isn't. "These permanents don't exist until your next untap step, where they phase in right before you choose which permanents to untap".

You can probably template out potential rules nightmares with future phasing and auras with a line like "phase out target X and any permanents attached to it"

There are a lot of good, cheap wizards with ETB effects that get better with this commander.

Just had one of my friends tell me "the only good wizards are legendary besides Snapcaster Mage" I then told him various examples, such as Puppeteer Clique, and Dragon Mage, or Dualcaster Mage, or Magus of the Will, or Archeomancer. Then he's like "well if you were going to run her you'd have to be really wizard heavy"

Why would it even matter if they're legendary? A bunch of them are ETB, aren't they, like Venser or Clique? Did the legend rules change again, I thought you selected one to keep alive under current rules?

Alright, Magic thread. Calling your bluff on being the new Brewhaus. Working on my budget Hapatra deck. Snakes and Scarabs Link to deck @ TappedOut.net 1x Aether Hub 4x Ammit Eternal 1x Blooming Marsh 4x Channeler Initiate 3x Crocodile of the Crossing 3x Defiant Greatmaw 2x Desert of the Glorified 2x Desert of the Indomitable 3x Driven / Despair 4x Exemplar of Strength 8x Forest 3x Grind / Dust 3x Hapatra's Mark 4x Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons 3x Ifnir Deadlands 4x Nest of Scarabs 2x Soulstinger 6x Swamp Sideboard 3x Banewhip Punisher 1x Crocodile of the Crossing 1x Hapatra's Mark 3x Natural State 3x Never 1x Soulstinger 3x Stinging Shot Ideally, I'd like to get more Aether Hubs and/or Blooming Marshes, but they're still kinda pricey, so that's a work in process.

Count Bleck posted:Of the ones with Eminence or in general? I'll say in general, though I meant Eminence. Mathas doesn't strike me as great. 3/3 with Menace that provides some political action. What good is the bounty if the creature isn't going to be killed anyway? Even if you are the one who killed it, you trade a card for a card...while going down in card advantage at a 4 person table. I'd rather play Queen Marchesa.

Shadow225 posted:I'll say in general, though I meant Eminence. You don't need to be the one who killed the creature to gain the life and draw the card, it's all opponents of the controller of the creature with the bounty counter on it. So basically, you get to play politics with him, directing removal wherever is convenient for you. Goad is also a great enabler for Mathas, and we just got a "goad every creature you don't control" spell Count Bleck fucked around with this message at 22:39 on Aug 9, 2017 |
