    Dropping 5 grant for sleeves is really painful, at that price points it is probably cheaper to proxy the thing... Why are there not colored perfect fits? That will solve your problem at once. Or perfect fits with a symbol like some of the outer sleeves have.. Also if you have a mold how to...

    So is unblockable. I have no issues with flying or unblockable, since normally you could do something against it. True, you can block a creature with ward. But an artifact with hexproof or ward makes interaction really difficult. Again, at this time there is no con for ward or hexproof while...

    Ward a lot is practically the same as hexproof. That was my whole point. I also stated multiple times that ward something small seems okay. I have zero issues with shroud, unlike hexproof. I also stated that I rather had ward hold for both players. Maybe I just miss the old times where...

    Yes (this works better with perpetual than a whole cube...). Or what you could do is test whether you could write the level with a pencil on a garbage card. See whether you can erase it without ruining the card... With the paper option: sleeves are squared while cards have round corners. You...

    It has been stated before but why do you not use double sleeves and put a small piece of paper inside which states the level? This is used by some to differentiate occasionals if my memory serves me right. Of course, when one desires the perpetual shizzle it falls apart and then sighs option...

    The distinction is that an interaction card has restrictions vs the target is restricting what it can target. The former is okay, the latter not. My point about flying and plummet was that flying does not reduce most interaction cards. It reduces blocking. My gripe with hexproof and ward is...

    I agree it is a step in the right direction. However any keyword which reduces interaction of one side: like hexproof and ward, are most of the time joysuckers. There are plenty cards which actually make flying worse, like Plummet. They could create spells which say destroy target creature with...

    Those are corner cases created by rule differences to differentiate how they work while how they work are essentially the same. You could just as wel create kicker and rekcik where one of the two could be done while paying alternative costs and one where those things cannot be done. Ward a lot...

    Mwah, protection and shroud holds for all players... expensive ward (uncounterable left out of the equation) is essentially hexproof... ward of 1 or 2 could be okay. Still, I would rather have a shroud variant of ward like the glasskite. If something holds for both players it makes the game...

    Nice, I missed the counter part!

    Well, technically hexproof is a subset of ward.... I do not mind a part of ward, but ward with something expensive (read 3 or more) gets darn close to hexproof. I absolutely loathe hexproof. I would rather have that the ward penalty also holds for the controller...

    The scarecrow screams etb/ability creatures. I like ability creatures but not etb. It is funny with arcbound creatures /good old spikes since those get their +1/+1 counters...

    Yeah, but look at the cards which were in the GrimJar deck. Grim monolith Mana vault Voltaic key Dark ritual Lotus petal Mox diamond Memory jar Megrim I think the fast mana was the culprit. One tournament sealed the fate of the wrong card and it got retroactively added to the previous ban list...

    Hmm. The issue is that the opponent makes the piles suboptimal given the knowledge the opponent has... This often leads to 4 cards vs 1.

    We haven't seen it written before like this is a fallacy. We haven't seen cleave before... Write it such that it is clear to the reader. We all live and learn. How it is written in the past does not matter. The original (kicker) one is great! Less mechanics/keywords is often better!

    Welcome to wotc money grab bomb cards... In their goal to have no negatives for one player (the caster) they actually made the game less fun due to the times you could not do anything against a card... Even a very bomby card like worship has more counterplay since it does not present a clock...
