    Not to mention how much damage the card type has done to the game play. With planeswalkers, free, snowballing value became the new normal and creatures had to be pushed like crazy to compete. I guess that damage is impossible to fix thanks to the "eternal world" we're living in.

    Flavorwise, Planeswalkers were always akward. "No, you can't directly attack that guy, he's a creature. I know, he might be a super powerful leader of something, but he's just a minion, like the ohers. Oh, that girl, fighting for me over there? Well, her you can attack directly. You know, she...

    I wonder how much it being a 9-drop matters. I have no experience with Emrakul 2.0, but as it is Mewtu goes off quite a few turn later than your average Mindslaver activation. Maybe it isn't that bananas when people haven't left much in their hands and the slow deck casting 9-drops is somewhat...

    Sets (LTR) The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth

    I don't like, that they use these samey frames for all the UB products, where each color has the same structure. It's not like the current card frames have much color left anyway, so the structures at least helped differentiate the colors somewhat.

    Thank you for your input, your concerns are reasonable and you are right. However, a 4 mana 2/2 would just feel too weird for Mewtwo and I don't love the wordiness of your design. So I tried to come up with a simpler solution for the same problem. Mewthree {9} Legendary Pokémon - Psycho Flying...

    Which knobs could I tune to make it weaker? On the same power level as Mew preferably. And wothout losing the mindslaver ability completely (I just love that).

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I reworked them both a bit, making them more castable and more beatable. Mewtwo {9} Legendary Pokémon - Psycho Flying, Ward 3 When ~ etb, you gain control of target opponent during that player’s next turn. After that turn, that player takes an extra turn. 10/7 Costs two less now and got ward...

    I am trying to design Mew and Mewtwo for my Pokécube as "super hard to cast but you win the game 98% of the time"-cards, but I feel like it's hard to hit the sweet spot. I am trying to craft draft situations where people are motivated to try and build a deck, that can cast them, but also game...

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    It's the CCC. Power level is relatively low but Shop is definitely within the higher end of my power band. It's a three mana artifact that basically spits out Tome Raiders as a baseline and can be much more with synergies. If that doesn't spund far too slow for your environment, give it a try.

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    Thopter Shop has been really awesome so far. It's great in token decks, incredible in artifact decks and probably fine even just as a win con for controlling decks.

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    I think this is a bad example. Psychomancer is better for the artifact deck in the sense that it also enables other payoffs due to being an artifact, but I would play neither it nor Disciple in any non-artifact deck. For this I'd need a card like Thopter Shop, which can fully work on it's own...

    Can't Fury only be cast at sorcery speed, which would make it not an answer to the kappa?

    Nope, it doesn't trigger itself. Just like you don't gain a life by casting Soul Warden. Permanents with an ability triggering of creatures entering the battlefield, can't trigger themself. Only, of course, when you have a wording like on Dragonspark Reactor for example.

    I think Blink is as far from toxic as an archetype with micro synergies can be. EtB creatures are everywhere, you can basically do everything you want to do in your cube with EtB creatures these days. And most blink effects are good anyway, whether they get rid of a blocker for a turn or save...

    Yes, exactly. MaRo has used that term for the four premier sets from summer to spring, and I just happened to have started with 9th Edition, which was followed up by RAV block. I've just found this out accidentally today while watching a video on the history of WU control. I guess Sandstalker...

    I am really struggling with the red three drops in my ravnica cube (only cards from the magic year 05/06, so og ravnica and 9th edition). I need some that can actually beat down to some degree, as three of thered guilds are rather aggressive. But I don't love my options. It's like the worst spot...

    Man, I'm so sad because I do love the art for the Kamigawa duals Cloudcrest Lake Waterveil Caverns Lantern-Lit Graveyard Pinecrest Ridge Tranquil Gardens Sadly, they could've been named pain lands too, because they're actually a pain to play with.

    I have o disagree with Ondee this time, I don't think you necessarily need cards that additionally reward you for blinking creatures. I think you just need a higher of density of EtB creatures than nine :p Blade Splicer Wall of Omens Sea Gate Oracle Some Ideas
