That tiny adventure box doesn’t leave much room for text and reminder. Hope the translators can be super concise for other languages. On the other hand, instant adventure is a great type line. TacoNight fucked around with this message at 13:34 on Sep 4, 2019 |

The adventures shown add an interesting new heuristic early in the game. You can play the creature immediately or hold the spell to get “full value”, since the ones shown are useful/castable late game.

Transforming the pumpkin back and forth to a carriage is great, but the juxtaposition with Turn Into a Pumpkin is odd. Are you turning actual living knights into a pumpkin? They can come back later, but you get to keep the pumpkin if you used enough blue mana.

Is the last clause of the translation backwards? Looks like, "Then, if the creature has power greater than Yorvo, put another +1/+1 counter." So he only gets 2 counters when you summon something big.

Is "Syr" pronounced the same as "sir"? Not sure how else to pronounce it, so I'll just be calling everyone "sir so-and-so", which just sounds like using the male form of a gendered word as the default. Not great.

Owlbear Camus posted:Lmao that they will put shocks in those but not the commander decks that have crept up to what like 40 bucks retail? It’s the first year of the product, they will stuff it with value and probably under print to increase demand for future installments. If successful, they will carefully ratchet down the value next year.

vegetables posted:Hyping up a product as a mystery, revealing it to have something cool then taking away the cool thing the next day is certainly a creative approach to marketing They are printed versions of playtest proxies. Someone will collate a printable sheet to use in cube construction. We just miss out on the experience of fun, underdeveloped cards in our drafts. Looking over the list, it needs an audience that has memorized quite a few cards. Otherwise, it's "Reprints: The Set - We aren't even going for a theme." It could still be a great thing depending on the reprints.

Hellsau posted:they're printing cards in new boosters with their old templating, still gonna have lots of questions and the online resources for those cards would also apply for the test cards For complexity sake, I'd rather have to muddle through banding than to figure out what cards were in the winning deck(s) of the most recent mythic championship. I do agree that I would rather have a few wacky, fun cards than a few more foils. edit: I just saw the card that makes damage use the stack, and now I want these.

Honestly, one of my favorite parts of the mystery boosters is that each slot has its own sheet of 121 cards, so they print fewer copies of filler cards for each of the more desirable cards. Magic cards have just started feeling to me. Even if I buy singles, I know someone has opened, sorted, and binned most of the bulk from several cases to get the rares and mythics I want. Sure, in reality, the filler cards in mystery boosters are just differently named junk, but it somehow feels different than having 20 glass slippers for each oko.

The American Dream posted:Change the sort setting to price. Reprints look fantastic. Sounds like you have a 1 in 300 chance of pulling a specific rare. Each slot pulls from a sheet with 121 possibilities. So, each card has a 1/121 chance of being in a given pack, not counting the foils, which I've read are also distinct from the other card content.

In his telling, he went from “going to damage” straight to his turn. He skipped the rest of his opponents turn, trying to ignore that damage assignment was obvious.

How can there be tricks with damage assignment on a single blocker? All effects resolve before the damage is finally assigned. I know it was different in the age of damage on the stack.

The wanderer allowed the same type of no damage combo in WAR limited. 2cmc vs 4cmc for the setup is a bit of savings, but not much to get excited about.

fadam posted:Is getting mad about White a meme or something now? I don't understand how much hand wringing and hysterics I've seen about it recently, it's certainly not the most well represented colour, but it's a part of powerful decks in Standard, Pioneer and Modern. White is very weak in commander, because the lack of card draw and ramp are major obstacles.

AlternateNu posted:They already removed MSRP from their products. It’s already happened. It is just a question of when The Market makes the collective decision to up the price. But paper may be slowing down fast enough, we could see a jump by the end of the year. WOTC still controls prices via the wholesale pricing, with guidance based on their direct sales via amazon. They just don’t openly advertise. Pack prices aren’t really a market thing unless there are supply issues.
