I'm pretty  about the Amoncard, because the art is so narrow.

Saheeli didn't even make top 8 at GP Shizuoka, everything's fine.  It was six Mardu Ballistas, a Temur Tower and some rando Jund.

They've only been making Planeswalker Decks since Kaladesh, what're you on about?

Oh, I got confused. Thanks for clarifying. Judging by all the precon decks WotC has printed over the years, I'd imagine they'd keep Duel Decks hanging around in some form for the "smart casual" crowd that doesn't buy boosters but still wants to play with their friends. Planeswalker decks are intro products and Commander is weird, so there ought to be a niche.

TheChirurgeon posted:Realtalk though, I'd strongly consider playing in a dueldeck constructed format. By that I mean, following their general rarity guidelines. My friends and I played around with dueldeck like deck construction (3 rares, 13 uncommon limit), and it's a pretty fun format to play with. Led to us creating a bunch of internally-balanced decks that we now break out when we want to get in some quick games. Most are based on a theme (we have one deck for every 2-color guild, for example). You could make faux-Planeswalker decks with a planeswalker, four rares and 17 uncommons, plus a playset of taplands.

The point is, continuing to make planeswalker-fronted Duel Decks alongside the actual intro-level Planeswalker Decks would be a bit weird.

You can just not bin her, you'll only lose a turn. Anyway you need 332 emblem triggers to make over a googol zombies, so 331 triggers is enough to kill 'em.

Player elimination, bighuge decks, high life totals and, as far as I can tell, no actual reward for being the one to eliminate people? Sign me out.

Chill la Chill posted:It's "classic" 80s and earlier board game design but since it has the magic TM on it, people love it. If I ever end up playing multiplayer, I kinda want to try playing regular FFA but have the game end when the first player gets eliminated, active player wins. Might have to let people block for each other and, uh, talk people out of conceding I guess?

I burnt out on that setup when I used to play Vampire: The Eternal Struggle. It's still elimination, so the game takes a long while and eliminated players (that is, me, because I'm bad) have to wait around for a long time to play again.

Intuitively that sounds like a pain in the rear end, but I guess it could work alright? Not gonna try it with a Commander deck tho.

I went and looked at the ruling on Unearth. Turns out:quote:If a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it’s exiled instead -- unless the spell or ability that’s causing the creature to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If it later returns the creature card to the battlefield (as Oblivion Ring or Flickerwisp might, for example), the creature card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.

C-Euro posted:The sphere of influence thing also makes for some weird interactions- we were down to four players (so only one active player at any time) in one game and someone ult'd a Karn, so three of us had to reset everything and the fourth player got to keep all of his stuff in play. quote:717.7. If a multiplayer game using the limited range of influence option (see rule 801) is restarted, all players in the game are involved, regardless of the range of influence of the player who controls the ability that restarted the game.

Full-art promos?  I'm more curious about the "you may $keyword as $this attacks" templating. I don't think that's how they've written it previously?

No untap next turn was my first guess too. I just would've expected them to write it as "Whenever Glorybringer attacks, you may exert it. If you do, etc."

I don't think "You may exert Glorybringer as it attacks" works any better if "exert" includes tapping.

That bit is the worst part of unearth, because the way it skips the actual dying part is very counterintuitive. (It's actually "if it would leave the battlefield".)

Here's a counterpoint re: Embalming: This is evidently a "zombies matter" sort of set. Any mechanic that doesn't clearly show that this returning creature is a zombie is strictly worse than one that does, because you'd eventually just end up scribbling a big Z on a scrap of paper and sticking it in the sleeve anyway.

The preview article actually does state all Embalmed creatures pop out strictly white tokens.

While I do wish precon products were actually any good, I can only imagine stores selling out of intro product because of hoarding nerds is kind of a pain in the rear end for everyone involved.
