Of course, take something I said out of context, when talking about JUST the prerelease and the prerelease promos, and use it to say something about standard which has nothing to do with what I was talking about. Typical.

mcmagic posted:Yeah, this is utter bullshit. I'm right about some things and I'm wrong about others, just like everyone else in this thread. The actual problem is that you place intense personal pride in the fidelity of your mtg thread posting, which means that we can't commend you for being right, or that'd be condescension, and when we point out that you're wrong, it's a loving conspiracy out to get you.

Tasigur being Silumgar's necklace is the greatest thing ever and I want to see the art guidelines for that card. Agreeing with all the Rebound excitement. Such a great mechanic. As long as they don't reprint Distortion Strike for Heroic. Staggershock reprint would be great.

I really hope they just print a run of new Rebound cards without reprints since the mechanic was frankly under represented given how sweet it is.

Looking at the old rebound cards almost all the white/blue cards make sense for reprint barring the one that makes kor tokens, mostly because they are pretty generic white/blue mechanics.

The way Exploit is worded is kinda weird to me? Instead of using "if" they used "when", so It kinda makes me think there will be way to get multiple exploit triggers?

Devor posted:Because morphs make it too good for common.. And Staggershock at uncommon or rare isn't fun. I'll be honest I didn't even like staggershock that much in RoE. Sometimes it could 2-for-1 and it was good in char-to-the-face mode but realistically a lot of things outside a leveler deck didn't die to 2 damage. It was really good against the bad u/x levelers drafters but the good ones knew how to play eel umbra and it often lost the game in that mode. Like, realistically, I was a die-hard grixis drafter in ROEx3 and I would easily take flame slash and heat ray higher. Maybe it was much better in the R/G lust for wauras deck but even then I think heat ray and flame slash are very hard to skip in favor of staggershock. In a format with morphs though, you're probably right, it would actually be really strong and be able to prevent more morphs from being played while rebound was up and such.

mcmagic posted:Magical Christmasland. I think this phrase is being reduced to "having two cards at the same time" regardless of what those two cards are. What, is there a pressing need to chump something with wayfinder in 100% of games, or mandated swinging into a blocker, or will opponents burn removal on it? It's a 1/1 that's already produced most of its value by then.
