You make up time by sweeping all the beads off your cards instead of turning them individually when it's time to untap.

That might end up the only format where the sweep ability is relevant.

I have a hard enough time explaining how ghostly prison works with planeswalkers, this is going to be hell. I get that they want to push the gently caress out of planeswalkers with all these rules changes, but abandoning "it does what it says on the card" might be a dealbreaker for me honestly. "Any target" doesn't hit a land. You can hit jace through leyline. Play multiple jaces. Who cares, sell them mythics.

lol at people thinking target means anything but removal of a creature. I have two cards in my hand. One says "destroy target land" one says "destroy any target." Golly, isn't it obvious that "destroy any target" can't hit a land? Oh wait, I just have to look at the date the card was printed and compare it with the latest rules update, so simple.

Yea, as soon as someone comes in and says "actually, if you look at the date on the card, that means it can't hit planeswalkers" I'm sure people will really enjoy sticking around to play a game that has more to do with gotcha internet rulings than what is written on the card. Real fun game you got there. Planeswalkers count as players would be a simple solution. Redirect damage is alright. Changing the definition of "any" to not include all things is a terrible answer.

The Human Crouton posted:Wouldn't "any target" mean you can cast the card at anything even if the effect wouldn't do anything? So if I wanted to bolt a land just because I wanted to cast bolt for some reason, I could. It just wouldn't do anything. Those lands are sick nasty.

That's a good fix I haven't thought of. Enemy means creature, player, or planeswalker an opponent controls. That's super easy to explain to new players, and fits with their expectations of the game. Sort of like how planeswalkers are esoteric until you put them in the context of them being helper wizards.

They say L rarity, so they almost certainly occupy the land slot.

It was around the same time, so my memory is fuzzy, but either the tarkir dragonfury or the dragonshifted cards had holograms at every rarity.

Mistaken For Bacon posted:I just bought into modern with goblins yay! It's cheap, without blood moons, at least, and I can usually split in the last round at FNM with it. That's good enough at my shop to get a decent little payout. Not what you're asking about, but I loving love legacy goblins. You can tune the hell out of it to fit your meta, it's a nice toolbox deck. If you get a wild hair to pick up cheap poo poo like goblin lackey and friends, it should be an easy way to build into the format should you so choose someday. Duals and goblin settler (not everyone even plays it) are the expensive poo poo that doesn't also help modern goblins. I'd play a modern goblins build with aether vial, but I like where your deck is going and vial is worse in modern. I'm hurting for cavern of souls myself. Again, not too important in modern. Anyway, I just like playing some goblins. I'll give modern goblins a shot and see what I can see. Kiki, Krenko, cavern of souls, vials, black splash for warren weirding, earwig squad, better 187 spells, are all things worth experimenting.

Assuming no one has first strike, then pretty much. It's better to imagine it as the combat damage step than "combat resolving" but you understand when you can cast your combat trick.

A good preventative for the butthurt is realizing that some match-ups are neigh un-winnable and as long as you do the best you can, the outcome is just how things shake out. This "any given Sunday" attitude doesn't help. Some decks will have a horrendous win-rate and that's OK if you temper your expectations. This mostly comes from lending decks to friends, and not wanting to set them up for failure by choosing the matchup. If I know the deck has a huge advantage over me, I'm playing to do well and having fun. If I give my friends decks that fold to me, there's no fun for anyone.

If you don't have the answer to the splinter twin combo on turn 4+, you lose the game. Twin also ran izzet colors, so it had tons of interaction and the best card selection in the format.

The first conspiracy was one of the best formats in magic. It had super important reprints. Stifle went from 35 to a dollar rare for instance. Also, vintage playable planeswalker. None of these things are true of un sets.

My favorite format is Conspiracy draft. Draft effecting cards added depth to drafts that no other format offers. My favorite card is probably gifts, but it's really the entire gifts ungiven package.

Yea, but monarch didn't have duke (you draw two cards at the beginning of your turn), king (your opponent discards 2 cards at the end of turn), prince (loot at end of turn). Each of those things will need its own text to do anything, so you either keyword it, or write it long form on the card. If that's the case, why does "ascend" have a specific rules meaning and not the myriad of ways to get blessed? Edit: if blessing did something, it would say so on the cards that give you the blessing. There aren't cards that say "create a token of unknown properties" or "you get an emblem, open more packs to figure out what it does."

You got some Karn.

And creatures that tap for mana are a green/black mechanic, so clearly colonade should be a swamp. I hate the fart huffing circle jerk corporate culture of wotc on a normal day, but the great sycophant search is pathetic. gently caress creativity, or consistency, or anything else good for the game, read Mark Rosewater's blog; it's all there is to know.

Get a master's set my man. If that's extravagant, either of the conspiracy sets will do. Standard legal sets will be super boring compared to literal nostalgia sets made for drafting. Eternal masters is bonkers.
