Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

[ravnic]

I keep expanding the green lands theme. This has some overlap with tokens and devotion. Is it good/bad? Cool/GRBS?

 

[Rusje]

It is okayish? Nowhere close to grbs. It costs one mana (this land) to add one power. That’s the going rate in lower powered.

I mean, it's one power/creature, but yeah, I think you're right. I'm just a little scared of lands that generate value but don't turn into creatures or sac themselves, because they are hard to interact. But I guess this is much more tame than Ba Sing Se, which was annoying in retail draft.

 

[Rusje]

Ba sing sea creates tokens. Which just like
Kjeldoran outpost is much stronger. Adding power is conditional instead of a true finisher/mana sink

Also, there are very few green token makers. If this were white and you could pump several creatures at once, probably several times, yeah, then it would be beter.

Que? Are you sure?

You could add non-basic land destruction. In my urza block cube I have some land destruction, which is not unfun. In my invasion block dragon decks I have non-basic land hate. There it even feels fair.

But hey, I like playing against staxx and do not mind playing against worship with black/red which do not have enchantment hate in the old frame.
