I usually wait a few weeks for Commander product cards to drop a bit as more get opened/put into circulation. Glad I fought that instinct this time. >_>

mossyfisk posted:Why rest at Tome Scour when you could Mission Briefing it back from the graveyard? Don't need to go mono-U, but it isn't unreasonable to just cut red from the deck. It was there almost entirely for Looting. The question is, is Cathartic Reunion enough to warrant keeping red? Do blue/green/black give you a CMC 2 or less looting effect (even if it isn't as big)? Or do you lean harder on straight mill like Tome Scour + discard effects like Brutality and the Innistrad Skabs that come back from the grave? Ideas Unbound with a heavy blue mana base is probably a decent replacement. Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, Conflagrate is a pretty big reason to keep red. I still like Ideas Unbound, though, because you don't discard until the end of your turn, so you get to draw three and dump them for a bigger Conflagrate.

Yeah. That's pretty much what the thread guessed back when the frame was spoiled. Split cards but they're Creature//Spell instead of Spell//Spell.

It would be broke as gently caress in any limited format slower than Origins if you could have a repeatable 7 mana for 3 x 2/2s on an uncommon.

Speaking as a New Yorker who saw 9/11 happen 2 months after I joined the military and spent ten years dealing with the hosed up aftermath, anyone who's offended can loving suck it. I bet the Venn diagram of people up in arms about this and those screaming about the WUR wall from the commander precons is a loving circle.

This keeps getting repeated on SA, and it isn't even true. Granted, I was on hiatus from the game during that period, but all my friends just bitched about Jitte. Watch, in 5 years, everyone will be saying people rejected the Arthurian part of Eldraine because it wasn't filled with Saber-face. >_>

BizarroAzrael posted:This forces burn and storm decks to splash green or white doesn't it? Bad news for anyone wanting Phoenix back in modern too, right? A lot of burn decks already splash for Destructive Revelry. Burn really isn't hurt too much assuming they get a decent mix of creatures/spells. It does bone all spell draws, especially those heavy in Rift Bolt, but that's about it.

The Cauldron isn't a four-of, but it is enough value in the late game that it will likely see play in some midrange creature strategy.

little munchkin posted:why would they play that instead of command the dreadhorde? The big three reasons are saving life points; it can be used a turn or two earlier; and it can piecemeal your threats against control decks so they all don't die to a single sweeper.
