redstormpopcorn posted:Megamorph is pretty dumb, it would work fine as regular morph with a "When ~ is turned face up, put a +1/+1 counter on it." I want to think that the shortcut is useful somewhere or that there might be a card with both megamorph and morph at some point.

BJPaskoff posted:Is there a reason this doesn't say "creatures you control with flying have haste"? It's going to be annoying explaining to people that when they turn their manifested dragon face up, it doesn't gain haste. Flying can be removed so I imagine this template avoids layering / timing issues, especially with stuff like archetype of flying giving.

Yawgmoth posted:So, rules question. If I cast final fortune, can I sundial the "you lose the game" part of it away? How about stifle? One of my friends has a stiflenaught deck and is planning on putting FF in and wanted to make sure. It doesn't seem like it should since it's a spell effect, but the good folks at MTGS tell him it's a delayed trigger. Sundial works with final fortune. The timing for the delayed trigger on Final Fortune specifies the extra turn's end of turn step which if properly played is skipped with Sundial. Ninja edit: stifle works whoops!!

Angry Grimace posted:I was told by others that its because White is not allowed to remove Planeswalkers. Despite the fact that Banishing Light totally lets you do that. to the color pie guru baker mr rosewater banishing light is a starkly different kind of effect from utter end I mean obviously to some extent the effects are different but it's kind of weird to assume that they aren't effectively the same a majority of the time, like, nobody ever treated o-ring as like, not a vindicate. Even if O-ring is conceptually not permanent while utter end is, in terms of actual resource exchange it's pretty much the same. Of course to maro thats a development thing and not a design thing I guess. Zoness fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Mar 3, 2015 |

Haha I looked at that card, glossed over it thinking it cost 7, and then realized it cost 5! Even if it's not (constructed) playable they are definitely pushing how fast dragons hit the board, I guess.

Yeah exactly, it's a guy who remembers how to do biorhythm, it's cool, if not particularly powerful. Also in limited it ramps you from 3 to 6 and 3 for a 2/3 blocks morphs comfortably.

Spiderdrake posted:Pretty sure you wanna crack DRAGON ACCELERATOR mythic in this format, actually. As first picks go the shaman is pretty amazing, pardoning the fact it can't pay megamorph costs. While he is a little slower a 2/3 rear end on a 3 mana card is far from irrelevant as elves and their ilk are wont to do. Also a 2/3 for 3 keeps the morphs off your butt in limited and being a DRAGON ACCELERATOR seems pretty amazing.

Counterpoint they jammed inane nonsense like gain 4 life into a mode on the u/w command. I get that gain life is a good rider on some cards but none of the other modes seem strong enough to really warrant a gain 4 life rider.

Starving Autist posted:The gain 4 life is just an alternate version of tap your opponent's team, it's just worse most of the time. To parallel this the u/b command will use mill X as an alternate version of target player loses X life on profane command. Although I hope they put the X on the R/G or R/B command. Honestly I just want a non-lovely red command this time around.

I Love You! posted:I'm specifically going nuts because while it is a worse cryptic, they put it in a format with Soulfire which seems custom built to break it wide open. And they're going to be together for a long, long time if it works out. I would find it weird if this format or the next didn't have a kind of (efficient) graveyard hoser in W/G to be honest. Although that's kind of aggressive speculation from flavor.

Also the responses are about double sleeving but I don't see that in the question? If you're just single sleeving it doesn't matter as long as all your sleeves point in the same way as everyone ahs said. mr. mephistopheles posted:If you doublesleeved the same direction the top of the card would see considerably more wear. Also it would defeat the purpose of double sleeving which is to form some kind of plastic "seal" to keep poo poo from getting onto the card itself

Realistically tho that R/W deck running SFGM and a bunch of token makers and stokes seems like a fun place to try to place narset form the get go. It makes chains shittier to cast which is a huge downside but goddamn I wanna go big.

This is a legitimate question, because Narset is ridiculously twitchy throughout the story. No Azami's actually just bizarrely chill about everything while setting up people to be murdered horribly. I guess the part that I drew parallels from was obsessive search for knowledge and enlightenment but Azami is a lot more stoic than Narset. I think it's cuz Narset is supposed to be a key figure while Azami's kind of just there.
