It is much less activations than you think. After casting it you u tap the land used to cast it: 1 counter. Next turn activate 1: 2 Untap 2 lands and clock: 5 Activate 2: 10 Untap:13 Activate 3: 26 Untap: 29 Activate 4: 58 Untap: 61 Activate 5: 122 Untap: 125 Acivate 6: 250 Untap : 253 Activate...

Gollum requires a choice everytime. The ability is semi-grokable. But each time the owner gets to shuffle the top two card. The opponent has to make a choice on the outcome they want. And then guess correctly. This takes up quite some time. Cards to avoid are the ones which are most of the...

Gollum is not a good example. It is all gravy from the casters side. Look at it from the opponents side. Either the opponent guessed correctly and they cannot kill it through combat since gollom evades that. Or they failed to guess it and they cannot block it... It is a prime example of what...

That's why I put the madness example up there. Madness did not require rares during torment. Your example is one where rarity matters power wise is already going on.

And that is just where the stuff breaks down. You can either: 1) have a game for the game. 2) try to mix a game with nft (non-fungable token). I follow 1). Which implies no pay to win. And hence the power should not come from rares. You cannot have both: excitement for (artificial scarcity)...

Me neither. My mind goes from a to z to d to n to e and to a again to h in split seconds. Sometimes I need to take a few minutes and gather my thoughts. What if I put it like this when I put the changes and their reasons why in perspective: 1) they change things (for good or bad) 2) reasons...

I tried to ignore all the things going on: Some rightfully called bullshit. But then all those "reasons" pop up. It is a replay of all the changes before. Most of the changes have been money grabs and not improvements for the game. I have been around a long time. My take away of it all is: We...

Recurring a 2/2 (without a silly etb) is almost never worth it.

Yes, but I would suggest a pile of cards. Either at the start of the draft/deck building/game a card from the pile is revealed. That way weird interactions will arise. Makes building the cube much harder than just one card though.

Why cap it? I play low powered. But a work for it to be big without any evasion is fair in my book.

As a parent myself: how funny is it for non-parents? Yes, I can be sarcastic, but honestly, it is only funny once to bring iron-on beads as counters/tokens. Is it mtg? Nope. As I said before, I love the idea of un(whatever). But is only funny when everyone comes unprepared. Otherwise it is just...

Be my guest, but do not expect extras. That's just lame. Use anything you can as counters, but do not make a game out of it to bring as many different things that can be a counter with you and break the card.

Well, skip the unique and sticker part and I agree. As it is, mwah.

Idol. Spawning pit is probably better since only you can do something with it. I like interaction and that idol can blow back.

No, not with rebound/flashback/retrace/red draw variant and so on. There is a reason that exponential is difficult in all fields. Luckely it can be chump blocked all day.

It says other attacking, so no, not 24 power the next turn. Suppose you have a 4/3, and cast ghalta, then you get a 4/4 when you attack with the other creature. I am in camp ghalta. Torsten has a huge etb effect, and killing leaves a lot of bodies behind. Torsten can be chump blocked all day...

What a beautiful art!

Has mill or does something with mill/graveyard? Easy: either add mill x, or delve. And @Chris Taylor 's suggestions are great.

Blue screams counter/control: X1u Put x +1/+1 counters on ~. Ravenous What you prefer Either flash and counter target spell with mana cost less than or equal to x/2 rounded up Or Control magic target creature with mana cost less than or equal to x/2 rounded down. 1/1 flying
