So it looks like you cast the creature and then the creature tells a story so I’m assuming it’s just a weird frame instead of taking over the whole text box to explain how it works. The only question is whether or not the creature can read the page or whatever when it’s summoning sick.

I don’t think the effect is repeatable, because flavorwise it makes no sense for there to be 6/9/12 bears or more than one Belle.

Injecting good cards into Historic is the only thing keeping it from being Super-Vampires vs Super-Dinos vs RDW vs Azcanta Esper forever and ever

The only way we’d ever see WotC reprint anything on the reserved list is if they gave us a multiple year heads up. Like in 2020 they announced “were dissolving the reserved list and were gonna reprint duals... starting in 2022” or something. Anything short of that would cause digital rioting and the secondary market would be so annihilated so completely that everything would get way, way worse.

Shooting Blanks posted:This. A great opening hand is 3 plains (or other untapped white), Ajani's Welcome, Bishop of Wings, and a Resplendent Angel. If you can't kill the Bishop or Angel before the end of T3, they now have a free 4/4 flyer coming every single turn or until you kill one. There are other hands that are nearly as ugly, but I've run into that exact T1-T3 at least 4 times. Literally every deck is good if the opponent has no removal or disruption before T4. Consider mulliganning to interaction more aggressively? I had to Hurricane Evac for most of the week so I’m late to the brawl challenge and I’m a bit concerned by the deck construction. Why does the Bant colored ramp Commander have 15 Ramp cards in the deck but the 6 mana Mardu Commander has no ramp cards? You can play entirely too many games of Mardu knights without ever hitting 6 mana, that’s really bad. These decks feel like precons designed by people who just started playing Commander and not by people who understand how Singleton formats should work.

The Chulane one seems perfectly fine, the faerie one is like 4-5 cards from being good, the Knights deck is basically a pile of Draft Chaff and it really shows.

Griffball posted:I don't know the names of any cards and usually only play casual, dipped my toes into ranked, first game I played I came up against a deck that could just replay a "take no damage this turn" card over and over, and had no way to deal with his artifact that untapped everything until he drew his entire deck and for some reason I died instead of him? I think I'll stick to casual. Yeah the game is probably pretty hard if you don’t read the cards and don’t know what they do

Griffball posted:That would have done it, in my defence it was an half hour long game where he was running the timer every turn, and that was like his fouth planeswalker on the board. I'd like to know what someone is doing playing a deck like that at the lowest rank. practicing, trying it out before taking it to play in the ranked queues, playing on a friend's account The idea that Casual Queue is only for bad decks with no rares is a fallacy.

Yo this Yarok/Dread Presence deck is loving super sick nasty, and I think i'm gonna squeeze some Murder Knights and Beast Weasels in here bruh cuz Dread presence is GROSS EDIT: also there is going to be a "Rise!" leavening bread pun based green uncommon in the set that makes all food into 1/1's until the end of turn, mark my words Bust Rodd fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Sep 10, 2019 |

^^yeah it’s that deck but I don’t have Vraska, so I put a Cavalier of Thorns in there and will 100% be jamming a Garruk in that slot because I’m convinced that Emblem is cheap enough to be relevant. Subout Llanowar Elf for Arbor sloth or whatever, the Reach is very relevant. I also run 2-3 Find/Finale. The Neoform is an incredible package and Dread Presence is super fun to play with. I literally just won my cat wings by defeating a Grixis player with literal zero cards in my library, going over the top of his Kefnet with Yarok and a single swamp for the last 4 damage. Insanely satisfying.

Right but blink spells are bad cards a lot of the time, if you aren’t already ahead then you need stars to align to get value. Prince is good as a 2-drop on curve and seems to have gas in the tank at every stage of the game... and stoneforge mystic just got unbanned so...

Yeah I’m slaughtering games with Sultai Dread, the deck is real. If you live long enough to resolve a Hydroid Krasis they probably just die right away and sometimes you open with a Legion’s end and it bodies them.

Honestly after spending a few days with the deck the 0/3 reach body seems extremely relevant so I’m expecting Goose will slot in very nicely. The deck also seems extremely draw dependent. I only run 24 lands and I’ve lost soooooo many games during this event where I’m fine if I draw basically 1 of like 10 cards in my deck but if it isn’t one of those 10 you’re doomed. There are lots of games where you’ll untap with 15 mana and basically nothing to do with it, and drawing a single Krasis would definitely win you the game on the spot.

Albeit I've only played 14 games with it so far, I haven't lost a single one of them though. Blocking an 11/3 Flying Chandra’s Spitfire has been the difference between me winning vs Cavalcade and me losing vs Cavalcade a lot.

Notice how I didn't ask if she was related to Teferi? Slow your roll next time you have a brilliant point to make, dude. Kaya's wiki says her homeplane is as of yet unnamed.
