    The thing is that there are other examples of cards that omit the reminder text in newer printings but still have it as part of their full oracle text. My guess is that it's a screw-up on WotC's end, since Scryfall pretty much just scrapes that kind of information from Gatherer. It's just...

    I knew that... the real question is why they removed it? ... Something I noticed today: Skaab Wrangler I love what this card's flavor implies about Innistrad. Necromancy is so easy on the plane that you can pick it up as a fallback career.

    Wow, I just discovered another interesting Scryfall "glitch" - the full version of the oracle text only has reminder text if the card itself has reminder text. EDIT: no, wait, that doesn't seem to be consistent. If I didn't have work I'd do some more digging... kw: lifelink fo:"(Damage" c=b...

    The worst part, for me, is that it's just a less cohesive card than Rabblemaster. Rabblemaster is effectively a Goblin Assault on legs, and just feels ultra-goblin-y. You also don't get the full value out of the card unless you attack with it, which introduces potential counter-play. He's just...

    A shining bit of good news! To summarize: Scryfall had some extra hosting space and is now hosting an ad-free fork of the MTG wiki. Look at it! It's so pretty!

    I'm going to pretend that I inspired this mana base with my entry to the last contest. :p

    General [Contest] 72-card Nanocube

    I found this contest way harder than the last one. "What if cube, but small?" apparently doesn't get my brain firing as much as "what if many copies of one card?" Useful information to have!

    It's funny to me that the most interesting cards in this set about wacky car races are cycling-related.

    Is this what you guys are like on the podcast?

    Yeah, that isn't jank. That's the strongest three-drop ever printed.

    General [Contest] 72-card Nanocube

    OK, I actually bothered to track down my Cube Cobra login info, so I did up a proper nanocube: Gotta Go Fast(ing)! The idea here is simple - it's a monowhite cube where both players get a copy of this fine card: Fasting This cube does not use the rule change that prevents you from losing due...

    Wait, they aren't talking about literal Savannah Lions in Standard? ;) (In all seriousness, I'm baffled that they reprinted Savannah Lions as an uncommon in 2024.)

    Calling Heartfire Hero a 1/1 is true... but comparing a vanilla 2/1 for W with a 1/1 that permanently grows by one each turn as long as you checks notes target it with something (in a format with a one-mana instant that gives something +3/+1 and trample with a lingering benefit) that flings...

    It honestly is? The real annoyance to me is that it forces powercreep into cube, of all formats. And I'm not just talking powermax cubes here - I've lost track of the number of times people on these very forums have said something to the effect of "oh, [classic fan-favorite card] isn't good...

    Thundering Spineback It turns out that +{4} mana cost gives you +0/+1 and the ability to spend {5}{G} to make a 3/3 Dinosaur. Who knew?

    Hmm... I have to say, I'm a little bummed that our first proper visit to Muraganda is during the silly Wacky Races set.

    A common mistake - "not:shit" gives you every card with an attached with a "notable" field set to "shit", which is ignored right now because it's been deprecated. You're looking for "-is:shit"... and you really should be using "q:good" instead of "is:good -is:shit" because that's literally what...
