    Card/Deck Make it shine: Harmonic Prodigy

    Interesting topic, thank you. I have been considering Panharmonicon in either of my two high-powered cubes and I never quite get there because I think about how swingy that can be in actual games. Seems like it would be even more of an issue in a Cube/Limited environment where your answers...

    That's exactly what rubs me completely the wrong way about this card. "Oh, you really liked Rankle.." "Oh, everyone loves Vampire Nighthawk" (A 20-year old design by now..) "Okay! Let's just glom all of that together onto this big freakish mess of a card." Like...no, this is a freakish mess...

    I'll replace Ransack the Lab with this guy for sure.

    As someone who's followed MaRo's articles and podcasts for nearly two decades, I definitely *do* get that it's too broad, 'brute forcing' and all of the things you are pointing out. I see 18 evergreen keywords & *115* additional keyword mechanics at this page. Oh, and then 24 ability words...

    These: https://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=name&q=mastery+set:stx+(rarity:r+OR+rarity:m) Okay, seems I *do* play the black one (lol) but, on the whole, I find them worded really strangely and still do not understand the red one. Who wants to cube with cards like that? I do not. Yes...

    Hot Take: I think this [BRACKETS] mechanic is a terrible thing to keep exploring. First we had Overload. Then, we had the stupid Kaldheim charms that let your opponent do a thing unless you juice them up. (not the most straightforward templating for cubing) Now this? Just make everything...

    I think we are getting "Reverse Miracle" mechanic, a-la... And there's also the new Stranger Things card: It's very much tied to Innistrad and I feel like it's been telegraphed for several years now...I keep waiting for it.. Kinda just feels right? We'll see!!

    AAAActually, I heard something (Here: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/podcast-352-stupid-monkey) that suggests these will actually be OVERprinted in the List and we'll see *a lot* of these reprints. The originals could wind up being the valuable ones, lol.

    This has apparently been reversed. TWD cards will also be re-imagined as "normal" cards and will be distributed to players as part of "The List".

    (Standard) Game Play trumps all other concerns but I don't disagree with you at all. We don't need more shit to keep track of in a game of Magic. We don't need MORE corner cases in the Comprehensive Rules, we need less. Mein Gott.

    Definitely agree. Really like this land for my artifact cube. It's a little slow but I thnk it's got some really fun play to it in that environment. Pretty sure they're doing all the new ones as regular cards. I think the Walking Dead ones *are not* slated to get that treatment though.

    A little slow but still a cool set of effects on this one.

    Actually, yes that is right. I thought we'd had another for some reason. Apologies!

    Well, Mishra also has a right arm made of etherium arm now? I mean...he never did before... I do fully expect it is Mishra (as clearly advertised) but that metal arm is definitely sticking out to me. I think there has to be some connection here or they wouldn't have done that. The artists...

    Pretty stoked for Brother's War. (Isn't that Tezzeret on the left?) I'll be anxious to see the LotR cards. Rest of it doesn't really land for me but that is fine. I liked Kamigawa well enough for flavor reasons but I'm not exactly clamouring for it to come back though. Some cyberninjas...

    This is very good analysis and I think maybe I was looking at him wrong. I really do love this design and I really don't love my black one-drops at the moment.. Hmm.. I literally pulled Skinrender *last week* to make room for Gelatinous Cube *face palm* Incidentally why isn't Skinrender a...
