No, what I meant is that when they print the card, it sounded like its going to be printed without the "until end of turn text" present on the card. That missing language, as I understand, was going to be errata: it was going to be viewable on gatherer, but not present on the card, which brings...

So...this is an interesting card to discuss, and this is probably going to be a rough articulation. In a vacuum, you shouldn't run this card, but this is purely the product of the way that cubes today are generally designed. However, its a card that has untapped potential, if put in the right...

Yes. I let it go because I presumed the lack of response meant that the forum wasn't interested in exploring such an affect.

So this begs the interesting question of if the card should be run without the errata? How powerful is a permanent invert affect?

Flavor text on this suggests also that someone in Orzhova is getting assasinated. "We're on the 40th floor, with only one window that has no balcony. Its impossible that someone would be able to enter -Minosz, responsible for Orzhov security" gd about time I got to translate something...

My gut feeling when looking at mentor is to try it. I really like the card. Llanowar elves are an iconic card, and this is kind of a more exciting version of that card. In a format where you can build board states, you get this vision of a board of llanowar elves powering out higher CC threats...

I would like it a lot better with shroud as well, though I appreciate that the lower shields ability adds some much needed interactivity to the hexproof mechanic. I think in terms of flavor, shroud is also better here than hexproof. The creature is supposed to be really anti-magic, you...

This is awesome. Even based on the spoilers we have so far, there are enough cards to make this a cubeworthy set for me. I have a suspicion I'm going to have my dream graveyard format after this.

Oh yeah, no doubt. <3 <3 <3 cube. I don't really want to hate too much on power max because one of the best parts of cube is that it allows you to somewhat revist the past, and get an idea of what was there. I also appreciated your comment about bounceland formats. I didn't really know...

While yes the cost is a problem, the biggest obsticle that I had was just human psychology. Not only do you have to come up with a creative idea that your players can actually stand (which is brutally hard), but than if you actually stumble upon a good idea, you now have the nightmarish task of...

My favorite is when they do that with the hybrid cards. Its just perfect: a division of two things mixing. And than when they have the colors of the art match the colors of the border, like with guildmage, it makes it feel like the border is part of the art.

I prefer the older as well. The shape of the new frame confuses me. The bigger thing with me though is just the blue. I like how the older frame looks more like actual paint, with different shades of blue that have been mixed with one another but dried? I don't know, you get that feeling of...

Shift the focus to how players experience reality, rather than persuing some kind of objective reality. Whatever perspecive you adopt for a card/cube/wedge/shard/deck/guild there are numerious other perspectives that players can apply to it. If you go to different communities, they might have a...

Just to be clear, I really like Chart, and would understand if you kept that in. They are both fun interactive cards that create incentives for different things. It just depends on what the cube needs more.

What made think twice an important card was that you could discard or mill it. The floor of the card was reasonable, but if you played ball with the formats other gy pieces, you could get a broken form of card advantage. The trick with those gy formats, is having the potential to design a deck...

Cutting the Karoos are fine. The only reason they are there is because there is nothing else that really fits in thematically with the cube, and those are the closests picks. They see play here, but kirb's playgroup's response is 100% reasonable, and understandable. The important takeaways...

I would go with sighs. The main benefit of this thread i.m.o would just be reading the design thoughts while I was doing the initial draft for the format.

Well that was surprising to see. I'm guessing that you're looking to do something similar? The concept is a bit warped at this point, and the entire way I would think about the project would change. Really, we were just looking to see if there was enough tech where we could update a midrangy...

Yes it does. You can even pay life to hit your untaps, giving it the potential to be a pure combo enabler, or nutso draw engine.

Hmmm...I went about a page deep in the thread and it looked like it was about a special sealed product they are going to be selling, consisting of reprints? Are we intrepreting this as meaning glare is being reprinted and you can pull it from packs, or are they going back to the old thing they...
