Will the change mean planeswalkers can only be equiped with a equip-planeswalker cost or can you put any equipment on pw's now? The latter seems like it would add a lot of potential complications

The way they've throwing around unblockable in the past few years as well as the reintroduction of phasing makes me think that Shadow is never coming back, which is unfortunate because I loving love that mechanic narrow as it is.

How would you template a creature to use phasing as quasi Shadow? "when this creature attacks, it phases out. while phased out it can only be blocked by creatures with phasing. It phases in after blockers are declared" or something like that?

I'd probably just give it shadow, or horsemanship. Rather than do this, which i think doesnt even work without changing the rules of phasing iirc

I think the prof point about Beta was that having an affordable set where everyone could actually afford to draft it and everyone could be involved with playing cards that are legendary in the community would be a great celebration of its history. For most people the chance to draft a mox or a lotus or a chaos orb from real product would be super exciting. Even if Betas format isnt super interesting a lot of people would still love it.


Instead we got something thats just for investors and scalpers.

When multiplayering we tended to either do pentagram (5 players sit in a star, you win if you elimate the two players opposite you) or assassin (you have an identification card and a secret target card, you can only target cards of and attack your target. if your target dies you gain their target card. If you have your own target card you can target anyone. If you or your permanents are targeted you can retaliate for one turn)

I'd say 90 percent of the time the correct tactical play when your commander changes zones is to put them back in the command zone UNLESS it's going to your hand, in which case that's almost always fine

The 10 percent is when it's hitting your GY and you're going to bring it back imminently, or you're flickering it yourself

I have definitely messed up returing to exile after playing one of the black flicker-on-deatg spells
