For those who missed it (I think someone linked it before?) there's a parallel card gallery of the alt-arts here: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-image-gallery/throne-eldraine-variants I don't know if we're getting any of them but that Murderous Rider art is very much my jam so I hope so. Also Oakhame Ranger adventures Bring Back while Brought Back is legal in Standard. Nice.

Gaining 3 Life is relevant in a lot of match ups. It's not nothing which makes the mechanic a bit smarter to balance than energy. Also the combo of that cat and Witch's Oven is really loving weird flavor.

Apparently the devs view the generous mulligan timer as a feature because some individuals have slow computers/connections. It actually double covers for them, there's a hidden phase of the timer where you can't cancel out because you're already loading the new game THEN there's a splash screen. Personally I don't think a f2p game needs to cater to the 2% of players running the game on a core 2 duo in the middle of deserted farmlands but I guess that makes me an elitist. edit:  dang Spiderdrake fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Sep 11, 2019 |

Because people want to see the emergence of a new modern to supplant the "Budget decks are only $890" format that Modern has become. Oh I guess burn is only 696. So more than I paid for my S10 to play burn. The adding random cards thing confirms it as a joke and also further increases the high price of entry for anyone who joins the format later on, as wizards has long loved rarity bumping old powerful cards. Personally I'll finish my cycle of checklands and maybe play it next year, I feel like Brawl in October will carry me with Throne for the rest of the year.

Lagomorphic posted:They have said you'll be able to get the old cards they add by playing events which is nice for people already playing. It's gonna be hell to get into for new players coming in though since they will have missed these events or just won't have cards to be competitive in them if they started recently. They don't want someone going "What deck should I start with?" and having a mostly commons and uncommons red historic deck being recommended to them.

You should really stop and consider what Historic Brawl would look like before pining for it. Also no one should buying "sets" of anything for Historic of either potential permutation. The number of playable cards lowers immensely very quickly. Modern is incredibly deep to support such a depth of archetypes and most of them require older cards to exist. The rate of playables even when modern first launched was a narrow sliver of the format. flatluigi posted:glad to see you still have that weird vendetta against me, No Wave

axeil posted:The bigger thing I'm debating about is if I should craft the Ixalan/Dominaria lands before they become 2:1. Other stuff just feels rather uncertain. Like I'm not going to want to play historic til it feels different from the six months of Standard before now, so who know what will actually be useful? Also checklands tend to come back so then I'll have those when they're back, which will be cool.

There are NPE decks paired with Core 2020 that established players get on the 26th There aren't Eldraine NPE decks to my knowledge There is a bonus of 10 rares and some additional packs in the free track of the mastery pass for logging in on the 26th (or something, it's kinda vague)

During the NPE I got definitely added on new copies of cards. I remember reading it added vault progress, back then. The big question with these is whether or not 5th copies give gems or vault progress. I feel like they spent time coding it so it doesn't do the former but perhaps the latter?

Huh I guess you've already cast the Feat before Expansioning it, and then still have one more to cast after? I'll probably do this in Niv brawl or something really stupid.

I'm pretty sure it works, Expansion is cast then makes a copy, but happens after Feat is cast but before it revolves the "one more spell" limit. You can't for example use abilities that say "Your opponent can't cast spells" to counter a spell on the stack. I still don't know how Oko's ability works with Glass Casket/Deputy of Detention, though. I think it doesn't benefit, but I'm not too clear.

 Cool it's that devoid card only not sucking rear end this time. Well not a full rear end. Still lolling they put the extra words on there to make the card slightly worse. Oh no if you have seven targets in EDH and seven red mana you're still playing a suboptimal card!

TheMaestroso posted:I seem to remember Kozilek's Return being a staple of at least one deck in the OGW/SOI/EDM Standard season. But that cost 2R and cast for free from your graveyard when you played a big spell. I'm referring to Serpentine Strike, which you wouldn't remember, but it was memorable to me since there was exactly 1 unspoiled rare in BFZ and it was this:  I just remember it because I was like "Where's that drat last rare?" and it took three scrolls to actually find it since nothing said rare other than the icon.

At 95 you can just casually roll through to the end. There's another 8k xp or so remaining. I think after the weekly change the mastery pass was fine, though it is kinda weird the last few levels are a pair of mythics, some orbs and several cosmetics you would only use in limited. Level 88 or w/e being Herald of the Sun just screams "we seriously didn't think that hard about this" I literally got the Benthic rear end mythic this week and was like hm fitting zoux posted:But it has chat and a friends list.
