    General Favorite Flavortext?

    This was released 4 years before the "300" comic, and more than a decade before the movie... I can't see how this line wasn't a direct inspiration to the one in 300

    General Favorite Flavortext?

    (below card is just representative) I really liked the "Theriad" series that Theros flavor texts had. Really neat little integrated world-building. nessian courser

    General Fight Club

    is it the extra blue that adds so much inertia to people liking Barrin? Man-o'-war is/was a near staple and does usually less with less (none) secondary upside. Unless I'm just behind the times and people have dropped MOW a long time ago

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    That card IS bad design. It breaks the color pie. You can cast a WBRG spell in a mono-blue deck and benefit from it without having to deal with any color restrictions, because that spell isn't part of the deck itself. That leads into: It breaks draft consistency. Because the savant player can...

    Card/Deck The Selesnya Conclave (GW)

    My latest personal innovation in that color space has been integrating/flushing out the KDM archetype: https://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/earthcraft-cryptolith-rite-archetype.3510/

    wow this is good. It's only three mana? I thought for sure it'd be 4 at least.

    General Is my signature too lengthy?

    I like the content of the signature, as I don't go to Wizards site at all and it's a nice little time-keeper; but maybe only the next 4 or so sets.

    General What is your stickiest glue card?

    faithless looting I may have a somewhat different definition of "glue" compared to what I see above. Flooting is important for virtually every deck that plays red in my cube.

    It also has a bunch of gabledygook text strapped on the back that has some memory issues and just makes reading it a pain. Agree on your last bit too. It's a 3/4 beatstick first, value engine second. Fun that it interacts with lands in white, that help people pushing Naya lands or similar.

    Slightly awkward that it's a skeleton, as that removes it from the zombie synergy chains black sections often have.

    In a fetch/shock environment I see this being an on-curve 2 mana 3/3 a good percentage of the time. T1 fetch to Color2/Color3 land, T2 play Forest/? and you are good to go. Pretty straightforward to hit 3/3 by the time it can attack on T3 I'd say. In most decks, that would probably also be the...

    General The Sets of 2023 and Beyond

    If I'm not mistaken, all of these sets are returns correct? It feels like it's been a long time since we've had a purely return year.

    I just want to say, that all magic theory derives from Richard Garfield lol. But MaRo is doing most of the modern theorizing.
