"Wait, it's all Kiki/Twin?" "Always has been." Frankly, Arcane Savant is one of those cards that's hard to NOT go infinite with if you're including off-the-wall cards. If you're just running Faithless Looting, cantrips, and removal, then yeah, it's fine, but as soon as you include even...

NEW WYLIE ART NEW WYLIE ART Also a damn cool card. Probably only good for EDH, but I love the idea of running a Jeskai Heroic deck and using a Shepard of the Flock to save something and make a token. Or Dive Down. Or anything. It's pretty good for a 4-mana do-nothing enchantment is what I'm saying.

It's like the Gitrog Monster had a baby!

It's...small. but yeah. Not nearly as cute as I'd hoped.

Lurrus cub emote when? @Jason Waddell

Thank you! I don't know shit about the lore.

"Sunny," Lurrus sighed, "I don't feel so good." Sun Titan cradled Lurrus closer. "Hush now, Lurrus. Don't move so much. You'll open your wounds again." Lurrus chuckled, then grimaced at the pain. His ribs were cracked in a half-dozen places. "It's funny. I've spent my whole life saving those...

On topic: Aven Something {1} {U} Creature--Bird Wizard? Flying Kicker {R} When CARDNAME enters the battlefield, if this creature was kicked, discard your hand. Draw two cards. 2/1 (Not my translation) This seems great for UR tempo decks. It can beat face early and refill your hand late--why...

I've seen this take a couple times, and while I agree in theory that I don't like including mechanics that are this similar yet different I'm making an exception for Read Ahead and I think you should too (if you like the cards with the mechanic). The main reason for this is that Read Ahead is...

This is not a very fun weekly question, Velrun.

This is crazy. The cantrip is reasonable, if about a half-mana overcosted, and the scry 2 makes it a lot better than Growth Spiral when you really need that land drop. Plus it's any land?? I love this card. The off-color kicker cards are killing it this time around.

Mmmm More cheaper = more gooder applies to the body, but the fact that Maw's ability is cheaper also makes a big difference. Maw can also sac itself, can do so multiple times a turn, and doesn't need to untap, so my money is still on the Maw. Aaron is pretty cool, though.

Set seems solid. I have precisely zero interest in Enlist as a mechanic and Read Ahead is an entirely optional mechanic--if you skip over it and play Sagas with Read Ahead like normal Sagas you're not giving up a large amount of equity--but a lot of the card file is playing in some cool space...

+1 to Inis -1 to marmite Actually, I think that what Humpty_Dumpty mentioned is actually a larger type of complexity: interactive complexity. This complexity doesn't result from one card but rather from having multiple similar cards within a larger set that have similar yet mechanically...

Most of the time, Bombardment reads "{1}{R}: win the game when your opponent has fewer life than you do creatures," and that's just not fun for me. At least with the others you either are gated on mana or have to figure out which creatures to sac first, which is far more interesting IMHO as it...

Alernative formatting to make it a little easier: Prince Vanguardcube Vanguard +10 starting life +10 starting deck size Add 1 Lil' Ren card to your draft pool. Your deck must include 1 Lil' Ren card. (Lil Ren {3} Creature--Human Noble 3/4) Or Prince Renathal, Noble Companion {3}...

Shigeki is good, he acts as glue for a lot of different stuff and can play as exceedingly fair ramp. Note that you can use the first ability to save him during blocks--there's no "only as a sorcery" clause.
