Huxley posted:So do I go sink wildcards today into the checklands I don't have, or do I commit myself to not playing the format? They don't want you to play Historic. But they also don't really want to say outright "Don't play Historic, idiots", so this is what you get instead.

Jabor posted:The "M" is still exactly where you'd expect it to be if it read "356/XXX", so I think it's that they're not wanting to spoil what the actual number is yet. The XXX is 269, it's on the other cards. They've said before that there won't be a /XXX on cards that aren't part of regular booster packs.

I finished reading the Eldraine novel Oko wants to get the elves to kill the high king (Will and Rowan's dad) to start a war between the elves and humans, binds Garruk with a spell to get him to do what he wants Will saves Garruk from drowning, then Garruk gets his curse lifted by some ancient elvish cauldron Oko kills the king who he'd turned into a stag, then planeswalks away before he can get caught The king gets revived thanks to some bullshit involving a sword Will and Rowan spark after they learn that their mom was a witch who'd put their dad under a spell Garruk wants to go after Oko, but decides to first go make sure Will and Rowan are safe

Their birth mom was a witch and was killed by the step-mom. The step-mom (Linden) is good. Their half-siblings are called Hazel (12) and Erec (4?).

axeil posted:I dunno who Greg Weisman is, is he any good? I picked up the Eldraine novel because it was only $4 and was pretty well-reviewed and I'm generally surprised that I'm liking it. It reads pretty simplistically but it's solid. Makes me like Rowan a lot more. He wrote the War of the Spark novel and everyone agrees that novel was trash. Edit: Greg pls don't kill Kaya

That guy is actually not wrong. The Taiwanese government itself also has problems with using the name "Taiwan", since their official name is Republic of China, and still claims to be the real China, and the name wouldn't represent the areas that are under Taiwanese authority but aren't in Taiwan itself.

Honestly my experience with Carah jives with PJOmega, most of the Carahs I've seen played either get immediately removed, end up on chump blocking duty, or doesn't need to do anything because the game is already over. Deathsie gives her a B which sounds about right.

It wasn't always the case that the current block ranked draft was available for the whole set period. It could be possible that they are ditching the two simultaneous ranked drafts format and returning to rotating just one at a time. Stupid but possible.
