80s James Hetfield posted:This makes no sense at all Sure it does. Any discussion about what is or is not playable in post Amonkhet standard is done under the assumption that the combo is banned, because otherwise it's irrelevant and won't matter since the format will be a boring dumpsterfire that most people won't play.

Decks like cat combo are especially egregious with regards to FNM stuff because all it takes is a couple grinders playing them to make all the kids who don't know better get consistently blown out and not know how to deal with it.

Sampatrick posted:Mesoamerican culture ain't exactly ancient. Hell, there are still people in the world who practice a lot of elements of traditional Mesoamerican society. Compare this to the ancient Egyptians, where the culture is completely dead. The Pyramids of Giza are more than 4000 years old. The Temple of Kukulcan (the famous pyramid from Chichen Itza) is only around a 1000 years old. It's pretty ridiculous to talk about Egyptian culture and Mesoamerican culture as being similarly ancient cultures. Anything that happened before the Renaissance is ancient to white people. I'm interested in tribal commander decks, except they're going to make them dumb wide aggro decks because of course they are, and therefore they'll be terrible in actual games of Commander.

Some big jargon changes - "In Play" is now "The Battlefield", you "cast" spells rather than "play" them (though you still play lands), "dies" is a shortcut word for something going to the graveyard from the battlefield. It seems weird and arbitrary but the grammar and rules are much more concise and legible as a result, and those changes are generally considered great after the fact. Legends are also pretty significantly different from when you said you stopped playing. Legendary is a supertype (like Snow or Basic) that can be put on any permanent type. So Legendary Creature - Goblin, Legendary Enchantment, etc. Each player can have a single copy of a legendary permanent on the battlefield at a time, you can cast another one but as soon as it enters the battlefield you choose one to send to the graveyard as a state based action. They aren't stopped from being cast anymore, and they have no effect at all on opponent's Legendary cards. Planeswalkers work the same way, except using their planeswalker type instead of their name. There are multiple Jace cards with different names, you can only have one Jace on the battlefield at once. There's another rarity, mythic rares, which have a red set symbol. These were supposed to be only big splashy things and Legendary story dudes, but also include pushed tournament staples because gently caress you, give Wizards money.

Oh right, it's just creatures that were "Creature - Legend" or whatever. A whoooole bunch of creature cards got creature types added to them that they didn't have for various reasons. Lords and old legends are the most significant ones.
