    General Monthly Fun Q: What is your favorite Magic card?

    Rumbling SlumGreater GargadonDust Elemental These were my favorite cards when I first started playing. Rumbling Slum was the rare of the first booster pack I opened and even as a Magic noob I salivated at efficiently-costed beaters. Greater Gargadon ignited my imagination by its art, its size...

    I'm trying to collect every Mountain card and I make a decent living but I still can't imagine ever owning one.

    General (BRO) The Brother's War Spoilers

    I'm honestly shocked and appalled from a brand management perspective they didn't redraw all of them in Magic-style. The Stranger Things cards looked a little wonky, but at least they looked like Magic cards. These don't just look like bad custom Magic cards, they look like lazy ones. It makes...

    The only thing as good as [BRO] as a set code is [BOT]. From what I understand, these Transformers cards are in BRO in some way. Maybe just the Collector's Boosters? I don't really understand and I'm happy to wait until Monday to find out the deets but in the meantime, against my better...

    Here's my solution: you make all your basics in the land box less desirable and/or identical boring lands, and then give players literal raffle tickets to get the best basics. You can make the default lands all white bordered as an extra incentive. Give every something like 10 raffle tickets to...

    Recruitment Officer is one of my favorite 2/1s for W. Fair and fun way to add card draw into white. Good art, too (I prefer the standard to the game day promo for sure). Surge Engine Surprised you didn't mention this one! Blue gets its second Figure of Destiny (lol), and this one doesn't...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    I think there are lots of fair points raised here, and want to emphasize how happy I am that people like the set. But to address a few points: Actually, I was hoping this change would fix the biggest issue I had with Unstable specifically, a set I thought was quite good overall. Even though it...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    Full spoiler is out! From the first post in this thread, my expectations were reasonably high back in November. Let's see how they lined up: Did we get any of these things? From the discourse (even here!) there seems to be even more eye-rolling going on around un-cards. Aesthetically, I do...

    The moment I start making proxies, there's no logically consistent reason to not just proxy my entire cube or introduce my own custom cards, etc. Both of which are fine, sure, but I do like owning and collecting the actual cards, and I'm pretty happy using "what WotC has actually printed" as...

    Goodness! That's annoying, that's a fourth unique token I have to bring in to my cube then for this expansion that adds only a total of 8 cards to my list.

    Due to a bit more theorycrafting, reviewing the cards, reading articles, etc. I'm going to be adding these two as well: Space Marine DevastatorThunderhawk Gunship The Devastator is admittedly somewhat boring and I don't like the idea of it taking a 4-drop slot, but I feel this effect is...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    Why'd they wait until the 11th hour to start posting fun cards? This is so dumb, and I love it. This is the first top down individual card I think is particularly clever, and it's not bad either. I wouldn't run it in a cube smaller than mine, but I've got a lot of space and plenty of drafters...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    Oh. I'm definitely running Standard Procedure and not looking back. That's the dumb stuff I was hoping for from this set that I hadn't been seeing, the true "Booster Tutor" of our modern age, and similarly overly wordy and complicated for new players. I can imagine potential feelbad scenarios...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    So I love this effect! Yay for more white reanimation, and reanimation that feels white! TO BE FAIR, in most cubes, reanimating based on whether a creature is Legendary or not is equally arbitrary as whether or not a character in the art is wearing a hat. This effect seems worthwhile so long as...

    Consider me Haughty Djinn-curious. I'll pick up a copy and try him out, thank you for this! I love tempo cards, and you've sold me that this fits the role I had always wished Wake Thrasher would and never could. The battlefields of Riptide Lab have trained you well, my friend. It's honestly...

    Thanks as always for maintaining these. Would kill to be able to break out cubes tagged with rarity restrictions or that are EDH-focused for the analysis, but I can 1) technically do that myself if I just want to play around in CubeCobra, and 2) I know how much work that would be! Especially on...

    It's wild, I was so disappointed by the first dozen spoils thinking we wouldn't get the sweet black artifact support I had imagined in my head, and now, yeah -- if spoilers ended here, I'd be plenty satisfied. This is everything, absolutely everything, I want in a Magic card. 1. A flying...
