I am loving the aesthetics of this plane, but I suspect there's not going to be much for me here. I learned a long time ago that you need to warp your entire environment if you want to make 3 color cards work, and I'm not really willing to do that.

If your curve is low enough, this card is just Mulldrifter. It's very, very good.

So this is a hot take considering that we're only like a week and a half into the format, but this might be my favorite set... ever? Like, I wouldn't be surprised if this eventually dethrones Dominaria as my go to reference for how limited environments should be designed.

Imprisoned in the Moon

There is a difference between wordiness and complexity. Yeah, this card has a decent number of words on it, but each effect is pretty easy to grok on its own. Chapter 1 - find a plains. Chapter 2 - discard a card, reanimate a MV 2 permanent. Chapter 3 - transform into Brimaz. Compare to...

Because 10% of my cube is going to be NEO after this and none of you can stop me.

45 goddamn cards, and I would consider a large number of these slam dunks.

AND I HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE SAGAS YET

Oh my god, this set is like candy. It's so sweet. Maybe it's just because I'm a huge weeb. Continued...

When a Cloudkin Seer and a Fleshbag Marauder love each other very much....

That's a lotta juice for a common.

Man, I just realized that Thousand-Faced Shadow is cool because it's both a ninja enabler AND a payoff. You play it on turn one and bounce it on turn two with Ninja of the Deep Hours or something. Then when you have an unblocked creature it's conveniently in your hand to ninjitsu itself in...

Why yes, I would like to shoot something for 2 and then sac a treasure to Goblin Welder to bring this back. Kind of you to ask.

This card's like, way better than Flametongue Kavu, right?

Double-faced cards: This is a pretty sweet control card. It might be too big of a roadblock, though. I had a chance to play with this in draft, and it is sweet. Definitely plays better than it looks. It's very much like a black Vendillion Clique. It's got, like, a quarter of the words that...

So this set is kind of a letdown in terms of cube. The cards are at the same time too safe and too wordy. I love the aesthetic, and there's still a few cards I like. Granted, I've been neglecting my cube lately because I've been focusing on my tabletop RPG that I wrote, but I feel like that's in...

Primo WoD reference. I approve. Also, I like this but not as much as I like Torch of Defiance or Acolyte of Flame, so the good news is that I don't have to shell out for the good art version of this.

Look, I'm not saying that I'm definitely going to include Chandra in her wedding attire regardless of her textbox, but a whole set of sexy vampires in formal wear is going to require the bonking stick basically constantly.

I can't decide if Cleave is super elegant or super clunky.

And the DFCs: EDIT - Oh, I missed a big one:
