You guys being against fetches will never stop being funny. They aren't ever going away. They sell too many packs. Deal with it.

Hellsau posted:well they don't sell many packs when they don't bother putting the loving things in packs We are due a printing for sure, but the last set wasn't technically that long ago. I am sure an exec somewhere is looking for the next big paper cash register and printing fetches is always that.

As long as you are a big ol' whiny poo poo about it you might as well deal with that too. 3 for shocks vs 2 for fetches. The big difference is that WOTC chose to juice us with a masters set printing instead of standard. Sickening fucked around with this message at 21:47 on Aug 31, 2019 |

moush posted:Seeing as how Historic will never have fetches and WotC is going to push it as the next big format, I'm not sure what the argument for fetches is. Did they say never or is this some weird guess? Arena is the easiest place to do fetch lands mechanically. It’s fast as hell.

C-Euro posted:They're easy to do on Arena but people will still raise complaints about how much shuffling they create in paper. They have to be tolerable on both platforms. M20 has more cards with shuffling than khans. War of the spark does as well. Shuffling in paper isn’t going away. Just make a format where every deck doesn’t want to include 8 fetches and everyone wins.

rkajdi posted:Discard 5 is pretty strong as a starting move for dredge. You are only looking for a dredger or two in the graveyard before it's off to the races, so this might do it. When the card whiffs, its just a much worse card than looting. It also just does nothing against rip/leyline where loot at least let you search for answers. Its a solution I didn't know existed and its funny at least. It makes the deck even more glass cannon than it was before which is probably a lot more balanced.

AnEdgelord posted:It seems very playable in an aggressive knight tribal deck provided such a thing exists. Kinda sad we dont get to play this with the BW knights and History of Benalia from dominaria. Lets say it just costs WW and didn't have the knight discount. Considering you can only have one in play would it even be broken? I feel like that is a no unless the legendary knights in standard were amazing.

fadam posted:I get that there are different strokes for different folks, and I understand that Magic is a game that appeals to a broad spectrum of interests, but I will never understand why people like singleton lmfao. What is the appeal of Magic with the worst part (variance) cranked up? I guess I've only played it during arena events, so maybe its a lot better with a tuned deck. There is a certain allure to only needing 1 of a card. Feels more collectible that way.

Cactrot posted:I can't decide if this is great or awful in Infect, it's probably bad but nice that it can potentially get all of your infectors. Same with bogles. Like, having your turn one play is so crucial, but is it worth having a nearly dead card in your hand in multiples? Can't wait to play it.

At worst you just sacrifice your own doom foretold. Unless your opponent responds to the trigger. I like this card even though it might not ever see play outside the modern enchantment deck.

There might be decks where one plague engineer and 1 witch's vengeance is better than two plague engineers. Its a nice card to exist even if its not immediately necessary.

LifeLynx posted:Went to my store's Modern MCQ yesterday to check it out and chill with some players I rarely see because I don't judge competitive events anymore. The format looked fun and diverse, so knowing I had all the Eldrazi and Tron lands, went home to see what I'd need to finish off the deck. Mostly a bunch of $10 cards... oh, and almost $300 for a playset of Chalice of the Void. How did that card get so out of hand? 1: Artifact 2: Played as a 4x 3: Reprinted at Mythic 4: Multiformat staple Pretty much everything needed to make it expensive. Its even a heavily counterfeited card.

Tom Clancy is Dead posted:I’m not as convinced. Without mill to enable it, it doesn’t counter anything on curve. It’s probably fine against faster decks that try to double spell early but might be quite bad against the midrange decks with powerful 4 and 5s. Which would make it almost the inverse of the 3 mana counters. I don't think the card is going to be especially good in standard.
