re the 1/2 elf that untaps lands, I believe there is a cycle of karoo lands at common in the set? so probably balanced around those for limited

Love that the thalia and gitrog art is just them housing some phyrexians. Innistrad people ready to just fight whatever, whenever.

For the phyrexians it was the culmination of years of careful planning to invade the multiverse. To the people of innistrad, it was Wednesday.

they did already fight a bunch of eldrazi, who's to say which is worse????

I think the only reason to prefer remand, outside of colour (which will be most of it I imagine), is that remand triggers Baral. But baral storm hasnt been around in modern for ages.

the value of white remand is giving remand to decks that dont play with blue mana, or were splashing blue for counterspells that they now dont need to splash for. Especially decks with proactive threats.

I mean, I was playing remand in Jeskai control but took it out when I put solitude in because I needed more white cards to pitch.

Its kind of a no brainer for me, I really rate remand with snapcaster. I hate lord of the rings though, so this kind of sucks, but at least the card is totally LOTR agnostic.

I was just idly wondering if something like hammer might want it in the 75, mostly. Or like... vizier combo? Idk, seems fun to mess around with.

Weird Pumpkin posted:

Oh I didn't catch that actually. I thought a spell was any card other than a land? Maybe that's just on the stack?

Do other cards refer to instants/sorceries as spells to distinguish between them and triggered abilities? I guess I've just never noticed somehow

You'd be looking for "targetted by a spell or ability" and this only says "spell". So it works on fatal push, bolt, unholy heat, etc. but not abilities (either triggered or activated) like the pitch elementals ETBs or a planeswalker or creature activation.

Moria Marauder might not end up being a huge wave maker, but the card is certified fun in any playtesting I have done. The clause that extends its benefit to other goblins gets some decent value right away. Maybe not specifying combat damage might have broke it a bit, but so far its fun in rakdos goblins in pioneer.

did you mean in modern, or will you be learning the sad realization that the lord of the rings cards arent pioneer legal (or did I miss something)

Sickening posted:

Yep, modern. It generates a surprising amount value. It doesn't feel like something that is going to see x3/4 copies in a deck, but a 1/2 of that pushes card advantage.

I buy it, though it feels like a card I'd be unhappy to play against fury decks, which also feels like the place where id value the card advantage...? I guess you just have to overload a card like fury in a tribal deck.

Stickers is so much better theoretically in digital when you don't have to gently caress with lovely sticker sheets. Just not that strong of a mechanic anyway.

But Anthology can just be arbitrary singles right? Saw in Half doesn't involve anything specific to that set. Clown Car, and Starlight Spectacular, too please.

Also add Claire D'Loon to test the robustness of Arena's token code

The biggest relevant difference that I saw, having discussed it elsewhere, is that the latter actually changes its mana value on the stack, changing how it interacts with a few cards in the set (less likely to be Disdainful Stroked, more likely to trigger Scalding Viper, less freely able to trigger the 5 or more archetype cards).

Also if they expected it to potentially penetrate modern, its interaction with stuff like chalice of the void might have come up, but that's more far fetched.

Fiancee and I ordered a Teferi's Puzzle Box art print, and the hydro/pyroblast playmat. I'm happy with both. But yeah there was a lot of miscommunication throughout the whole process.

I feel like the right tact is have black/blue/red/white mages as generic non legendary cards of their colour, and then the gold versions of those effects as characters from 6+ that align. Like a Blue Mage, and then a Quina that's UG that eats things to get the blue mage effect.

Not saying they'd play it, but if I Bring to Light for cover-up, I assume, since the casting is part of the spell resolution, it isn't in the graveyard yet to collect for evidence, right? (Id absolutely believe if it was too tbh)
