    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Yes, I found Ascendant Spirit to be a little bit on the trap-side but he was in there for a bit. Snow-basics make him much more tempting for sure. Petty sure Pteramander was added (later removed) as well. I have a big problem with making too many swaps with each new set and my "planned...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Yeah, honestly not sure I will keep him.. I will try him out first but I also run him in a 60-card Legacy-legal ninja deck and (to be completely honest) he has not impressed me too much so far. In four games so far, he has only been a Flying Man and nothing beyond that. His Ninjitsu cost is a...

    I may have a new favorite card nickname.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    This is a significant difference; completely overlooked that nuance and that's a big plus in SS's favor. Well, I'm primarily running him to beef up my uncomfortably-thin blue 1-drop section. I'm currently running Spectral Sailor and Hard Evidence* but would like a couple more. I was hoping...

    Is this card preferable to Thousand-Faced Shadow? If you squint hard enough, they are nearly the inverse of eachother but one is also Flying Men. Please don't tell me to run both; that is not what I want to hear! (Related-unrelated, $65 for *this* card is a straight-up obscenity. I know...

    WELL, SHUT MY MOUTH!! :D Feels like I should've waited for that but oh well..

    As (lots AND LOTS) of time goes by, I am beginning to doubt this is ever actually going to happen. In other news, I picked up a Hawkins National Laboratory for the artifact cube today and looking forward to it! One interesting thing about this card...if you flip it over, if you have no...

    General Fight Club

    Definitely testing him in the artifact cube. Never liked Glasshulk and abandoned it a while back. Just never did anything and got overlooked in every draft. That might be changing now that we have such a density of type crossover with all these colored artifact creatures & equipment creatures...

    Looked at the singles prices for that Buckle Up precon *started sweating profusely* and then noticed it's a $40 precon. Not a very hard decision! There seem to be a few blue cards that are very much too good for my current environment but several I will be trying out in the artifact cube and...

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    re: Steelshaper's Gift It also dodged a reprint in*18* years (ha--feel old yet?) and that *surely* has a lot to do with it as well. Train is 100% too. HammerTime & EDH have driven it up over time. Used to own several of these but I sold off about 90% of my collection last year. Stings a...

    Sets Set Cube Design: Remastering NEO

    In my experience, these are the meanest things I ever put into an exalted deck..they'll probably never block you again! :marofl: I agree it feels very out of place in NEO Kamigawa but they always do 'equipment matters' for Boros and it's usually pretty underwhelming.

    You just made me plunk down $20+ for this nonsense. THANKS no thanks. Lol. My artifact cube could certainly use this going forward, agreed; thanks for bringing it up.

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    Don't disagree with any of it and I really *do* love those 're-set the rules' types of cards. I actually picked up a Tombstone Stairwell a few months ago but it showed up and I chickened out. Also just remembered I run Moat(!) in my own powered environment. My list started mostly as a carbon...

    Same here but my artifact cube is HURTING for quality 1-drops. This is GREAT.

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    100% feel you but then I couldn't help but notice they left off the Ninjutsu reminder text for quite a few of the ones I want to run and that is a little disappointing and (yes, unfortunately) a strike against them.

    Indeed! I actually pulled Pestilence a while back b/c never quite came together in drafts--I'd love to throw it back in but probably not for this reason lol. I've lost too many games to it--not signing up for any more ha.

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    (Apologies for speaking out of turn..) Without a disenchant handy, this can be a pretty oppressive card to overcome in your average game of limited. I've lost plenty of constructed games to it as well--not looking to replicate that experience in my cube. (But some playgroups would surely love...

    I'm over the moon for this Vehicle support not because I love vehicles but mostly just because I really wanted them to be GOOD in my artifact cube and they mostly suck and I don't really have a lot of love for them as a theme. That seems to be changing.. Very excited about vehicles that...

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    I think realized at some point that *a lot* of reasonably-powered mechanics become oppressively OP as the game goes on for decades. There's real power creep and it's not even intentional. (Well, mostly unintentional.) +1/+1 counters have existed since Day One and there's a critical mass of...
