Both. Battlefield does give lands but no spells, graveyard gives spells and dead permanents but likely no lands

Congrats. And good luck. Even when the baby wakes you up at night, the joy the baby gets when you cuddle them is worth it. Yes, you will have almost no time for hobbies or are too tired, but you will get a lot in return. Best wishes to the missus and hopefully an easy birth and a healthy and...

Ashes to ashes

hmm, I do not agree that the cloudgoat is comparable to elspeth. Thing is: there is more creature removal (con for the goat), cloudgoat is a one trick pony (but blink power!). Elspeth makes tokens and stays alive, let alone the agency that elspeth gives. Yes you can attack elspeth, but you can...

You could also weaken the clocks.

I will raise you a phyrexian rebirth blegh There are however many wrath’s worth it Cataclysm Winds of rath Brawl Wave of reckoning Plague wind And many many more. Desolation giant Bane of the living funny, besides the og wog the wrath’s became lower power until the the end of premodern...

Most of the times ramp has the previously mentioned problem of a lot of setup cards with a few payoff cards. Too many/few of one of the two and you whiff. Which differs from the dig/draw combos. Creature ramp mitigates this problem but introduces other problems. Maybe tacking cycling or...

Kayla and Baird are good in the early game and not that good in the late game. While trenches is not that good in the early game and downright bonkers late game. So what do you need?

The funny thing is that even eschewing aggro cards, there will always be an aggro deck in a matchup. Even if it is a control deck. If the opponent is a slower control deck, you are the aggro player. So the question becomes: what is the clock you want to represent at different mana curves? For a...

Oh, mister Pratchett. Mostly (almost all) great books, some stinkers, but even those were more fun to read than most other books. Similarly to some movie stars like mister Cage or mister Reeves. The highs are really high. The lows are quite low, but fun nonetheless. Sidenote, the game discworld...

Spiketail drakeling voidmage prodigy Thing with counterspells is that you have to keep your mana up and they do not provide a clock.

Simply, because some people like a change of scenery. A regular cube with 360 card, 8 players and 3 boosters of 15, leads to all cards in the pool. Contrary, in a draft one knows all the possible cards that could be in the draft ( even with mystery boosters if no customs are there) but not which...

It makes an aggro deck want a wrath. The beauty is that it is both protection from your opponent’s destruction and makes your wrath one sided. Do note that the protection part is like a counterspell, you need to keep the mana open. That could be a steep price

Interlude end of turn opponents turn. Your turn wrath or even better obliterate. Win. So not opponents wrath. Yours.

Maybe use jokers/vouchers like: Blue fetch, change for any fetch that fetches blue and one other type? Similarly with the dual? This solves the problem with the duals only being good in just a subset of decks.
