I don't really see why they would make a card that specifically produces "Diamond" mana especially if the "diamond" mana is colorless. You already have basic lands that do that so it seems redundant. However, R&D seems stupid enough to make the "diamond" it's own mana source which can only be paid by using Waste lands and they end up not producing colorless.

Now you can play colorless commander decks without spending $1500 on land. Thanks Maro, you finally show us what the one true format is

Was there any kind of word put out from R&D from the couple of leaks that were supposedly from Oath that popped up a week or so ago. The new basic land, Kozilek, and the other new land? Or were those revealed to be fake?

Mind that my one friend Mike has beat him twice (modern format both times) and said that he was a jerk. I'll try to get specifics from him, I can't remember exactly but Mike said at GP Charlotte he faced G.Fab like round 5-7 and something happened. Do you live in Central PA?

They just said on stream before I went out that "He went from saying he was going to win the tournament to dropping out after a first round loss when he was slotted for top 8" Unless they were referencing something else

So, do Wastes only tap for DIAMOND mana? They doesn't tap for what we call "colorless" (2)BB right? For that you still need BB and 2 of any land except Wastes?

Some Numbers posted:No, the diamond means colorless. The (2) is generic which means "any type of mana." Are we assuming that the Wastes also produce generic mana? If so, then do when what is their point at all?

jassi007 posted:What is generic mana in terms of producing mana.? Can you explain an example of mana source in the game that now produces generic? Keeping in mind that sources like Tron Lands, Sol Ring are not producing generic, they are producing colorless. No, I can't give you an example. Maybe I'm stupid and don't understand it like some others. For example if I want to cast Kozilek, Butcher of Truth I need to pay (10) which can be UUUUUWWWWW or any combination of the 5 color lands that are available now. If I want to cast Oath Kozileik I need (8) and DIAMOND/DIAMOND. I still need 10, so what's the point of introducing the new Wastes? What's the benefit or even the point?

Niton posted:I believe so - Kozilek's mana cost says "two mana must be colorless", so I think it would be similar to how you can only use basic lands to cast Imperiosaur off of Daxos. The more I understand it seems like a stupid mechanic to cater to the EDH crowd so they can have a true colorless manabase so they don't have to use dumb poo poo like Desert, Quickstand etc etc. They can just run 35 Wastes and be done with it.

Some Numbers posted:^^^^^: It's not a color! It further complicates the game for no real long term benefit. Like someone said before if you want to cast Ob Nix you need (3)BB it's still 5 no matter how you cut it UUUBB (for example). By now saying you can use Waste/Waste/Waste/BB you're still achieving basically the same outcome. Now you just have to further complicate things in your 60 card deck if you have say a total of 7 Diamond symbols in there, you now need to figure out how many additional wastes you need to run in your deck in addition to your already basic lands, manlands, whatever lands are in the format at that point.

This is basically what I was trying to say with my last post. Thanks!
