Well, sir, there's nothing on Ravnica
Like a genuine, bona fide
Manafied, five-color Elder Spell
What'd I say?
Elder Spell
What's it called?
Elder Spell
That's right! Elder Spell
Elder Spell
Elder Spell
Elder Spell

I hear those things are awfully loud
It casts as softly as a cloud!

Is there a chance the gates could bend?
Not on your life, my Simic friend!

What about us Rakdos slobs?
You'll be given beatdown jobs!

Were you sent here by the Bolas?
No, good sir, he won't control us!

one huge problem with necropotence is that you could dark ritual it out turn 1, so bargain was meant to address that problem. fortunately they learned their lesson about fast mana and didn’t print dark ritual again in the same block as bargain so it wasn’t a problem

also it’s insane that yawgmoth’s bargain isn’t the most broken card in its block. it’s not even the most broken card in its block with “yawgmoth’s” in the name.

Keyforge is super, super good, because it solves one of the traditional problems of CCGs (the mana system) in an incredibly creative way. Most games either require land-type cards which creates the problems of screw and flood, or automatically generate mana and are then constrained in card design by the fact that both players get a perfect curveout. Keyforge constrains you not by turn number or how many lands you’ve drawn but by what bullshit you happened to end up with in your deck and which house it works with. It’s seriously genius.

one of the best things about legacy is that the package of spirit guides, chrome mox, sol lands and chalice means you can play a lot of random stompy decks that win with incredibly stupid cards like sea drake and demonic taskmaster

it is offensive to me that people would pay $69, one of the coolest amounts of cash possible, for a chalice. not only is it a piece of cardboard but it is a piece of cardboard designed to make games miserable and grindy.

i really hate drafting Orzhov and my recent 7-win runs have been rakdos or gruul with maybe a blue splash. I think aggro is way underdrafted in RNA, there are no good common creatures that dodge the common removal except for like rendhorn

the fundamental point that “WOTC is probably talking about the magic cheater a lot more than the possible sexual predator for non-race-related reasons” is correct
