Thanks for reminding me about Bridge! I was always intrigued by it and now that I have occasionals, I should easily find a slot for it to test. Garna is also cool, although gold cards have a harder time to slot in. I also only have gold cards in my occasionals. Regarding the reamimator deck, I...

Okay, overall the card is better, but I would prefer Reckless Impulse over it in a non-green deck or any kind of prowess deck still. Generally, I prefer the flexibility of "until the end of your next turn" over "until your next turn" even as a sorcery. Reckless Impulse feels the closest to a red...

Crimson Vow was a neat set. I would've really enjoyed the limited format if it wasn't for those unbeatable bombs: Toxrill, Avabruck Caretaker, Halana and Alena ... VOW was my least favorite limited experience, even though it was so so close to being awesome. However, it did have an impact on my...

I wish there were more artifacts that turned off when tapped. Cards like Howling Mine, not like Winter Orb, so it can be a fun thing to do with stuff like Improvise, Warterbending, Ensoul Artifact+attacking and such.

Man, looking through that list makes me really want a classic core set back elegant designs and just magic vibes. M13 had a lot of cool new cards that feel like insta-classics and I'm still cubing five of them. These three are in the core: Archaeomancer Talrand, Sky Summoner Krenko's Command...

Regarding vibes and art, SOK, like the whole Kamigawa block, was one of the all time best sets imo. That makes it even more painful how bad the designs were, mechanically, for huge parts of the set. Like other said before, it really feels like the theme was "prevent people from playing the game"...

My biggest wishes are some cool, solid shadowmoor-y hybrids, especially simic and boros need more options for my power band. I also wouldn't mind some neat goblins that overlap with my red section's other themes like madness, prowess and such

I don't love how little variety there is between my black decks. At least half of them are based around sacrifice value - there are differences, but wether these decks are {W/B}, {B/R} or mono {B}, they all play somewhat similar. Sure, there are also {U/B} ninjutsu decks and some variants of...

Super cool idea, would love to play that out. One problem though, the site doesn't work on phone, the card is far too large there.

I wish we had, in general, more counterspells that work against mv x or less. Prohibit is so akward because it doesn't counter three-drops on the draw. Why don't we have Smother as a Counterspell? Smounter {1}{U} Instant Counter target spell with mana value three or less. I guess it would be...

Okay, I got another one. Feldon of the Third Path Is there anything else like Feldon in red (or colorless), that works wonderfully with big creatures in your graveyard?

I think you're right, not much comes close. Thanks, guys, I'll probably go with helping hand. I just love things that cost one mana and have three lines of text.

I am looking for lower/mid power cards, castable with only plains (mono white, hybrid, colorless), that would be desired by two different decks: - Grindy {W/B} sacrifice decks, that stall the game, create small tokens, and drain opponents out with stuff like Zulaport Cutthroat. - Assertive...
