nothing about tibalt's trickery was an accident, they do slot machine red cards decently often (see chaos warp and lukka). they didn't even make it good; trickery decks were at sub-45% winrates because of how often they'd fizzle throes of chaos is what finally actually made the deck successful by letting you drop all the cards that would make the combo fizzle, but it also made it more vulnerable seeing as now you had to wait until turn 4 for the combo instead of turn 2 still, glad to see it go

long-rear end nips Diane posted:I don't really see why it's that different from the Commander Legends partners but w/e it's a moot point anyway the point is that if they just had 'partner' you could pair them with any other currently printed partner commander in the game, and 'partners with' only allows for a set pair (where these are intended to be mix and match within their pool)

i before e just wants them to be reprints and not new cards, which is understandable, but the TWD cards sold incredibly well apparently and this is at least a way to get unthemed versions out there while the ip holders insist on getting new cards good news though, the fortnite cards are gonna all be reprints

It could also be Gitrog and Craterhoof. yes, 'sisters'

Dreylad posted:I sold all my old magic cards and was thinking of spending a bit of that money picking up a couple of decks just to play around with my friend who played back in the day. I admit to being incredibly dumb but I can't really figure out where to start now. I started playing magic when we picked up two random 60 card decks, but now you can buy prebuilt or something called commander? I've read a few getting started guides or what's on the MTG website but it's not really clear. there are a lot of formats these days (both official and unofficial) because there's a LOT of cards out there and having ways to cut down the size of card availability leads to variety in gameplay. commander, specifically, is a very popular format meant to be played in long, 4 player sessions where everyone has a legendary creature as commander they can play repeatedly (with escalating cost) and the rest of the deck is singleton (restricted to the colors of said commander). it's pretty fun and you sure can just play it 1v1 if you want really it depends on if you're planning on playing with anyone other than your friend b/c if you just want to play them with a bunch of random cards regardless of their individual legality you can just do that with whatever you pick up (but imo you probably should've figured out what cards you'd want to keep out of your old collection in that case)

usually you'll see "up to one" templated so that you can still cast the spell with zero targets, so that if (say) you had a spell that would put +1/+1 counters on a creature and draw a card you could still draw without pumping your opponent's creature if you didn't have any

ngl i feel like people are treating blood tokens like they did food before eldraine actually came out (that is, really cold on something that ended up being solid in practice), but that's still a weird card especially because most of the blood cards we've seen are in black not white my gut says he really should've at least come down and made X+1 blood tokens instead of X

Somehow I've never paid any attention to the "lore" of Magic but y'all talking about these characters makes me interested. Is there anything actually worth reading? I can't shake this feeling that it is all likely poo poo but I don't know as I do love the game. some of it's alright, some of it's terrible, but it's long-running enough that there's enough good here and there that people got invested in those bits

it doubles all tokens, not just creature tokens, so it works with all those blood tokens going around

pioneer died because it was introduced right before everyone shifted to arena because of the pandemic and I think it'll get resuscitated when it ends up on arena as its paper extended format just like brawl did, especially with historic becoming more and more like arena legacy

Huxley posted:I really think they've gone crazy pants with Historic specifically because they want to make room for a Historic/Pioneer/Standard split that provides three very different feeling formats. It'll take some time, no doubt, but I believe them when they say Pioneer on Arena is coming, and they expect to support it fully. yeah, from chat from the devs this is the idea I just wish standard releases were coming a bit slower so they had more time to build and implement the pioneer backfill sets

Arivia posted:Okay, there are literally no W/B 1 or 2 CMC spells that create a creature token immediately for Kaya to curve off of (at least that I see looking at the spoiler maybe I missed something). Honestly what the hell Wizards? There's got to be some kind of a Development fuckup there for sure. here's the search you want: https://scryfall.com/search?q=set%3Avow+o%3Atoken+color%3C%3Dorzhov&unique=cards&as=grid&order=cmc i think you're overstating it - her +1 does put a counter on a creature token, but it still gives deathtouch to your creatures, token or not - kaya's -2 doubles all tokens, not just creature tokens (meaning it works with blood tokens) - that -2 is something you'll want to play the turn after you put kaya down anyway, with more mana open; waiting for t4/5 to cast kaya and a 1 or 2 cmc spell on the same turn you -2 her is probably not worth it even if those spells were there either way it's probably okay in limited (i could see splashing her if you're in a blood token deck) but i think the design is more for token strategies in general

yeah i don't really see the huge upside of a 3/3 for 3 that conditionally drains for 1 per turn, that conditionally is a 4/4 that can drain for 2
