    Now that the variant card image gallery is up to date, we can see the English version of this card, and it's not 50 pixels tall! If you're playing with Daybound/Nightbound cards (as I unfortunately am), this is a solid pick. It's a nice Thrashing Brontodon effect at two MV, and it's not hard...

    I seriously love this card, and not just from the flavor POV -- I think I've found my new favorite red "wrath" for cube...sorry Rolling Earthquake.

    Kind of blown away that we get three unbelievable playables all at once this late in the season (from this Polygon article): Cathartic Pyre is the second coming of Abrade, baby!! Bolt or rummage 2, doesn't matter, we've got instant speed going! Will be used as a burn spell probably 85%+ of...

    Loving all the takeaways about this set, and agreed at how rich it is for a lot of different archetypes in cubes of all sorts of power levels. I was wondering though, as we approach the final day of spoilers, are we going to have a separate thread for "testing and includes?" as we have for the...

    I have a strong preference for Reveillark for the reasons you discussed and more, but I don't think it's significantly more powerful. This is a minor point but hear me out. ReveillarkSigardian Savior Assuming reasonable parity in the graveyard, the scenarios where Reveillark is absolutely...

    Move over Reveillark??? Sigardian Savior Incredibly powerful, and while I'm disappointed it's a cast trigger instead of ETB because I'm a degenerate, this sets hits keep coming with alarming speed. No, I'm not going to replace Reveillark with this, which lets you do all kinds of silly things...

    I guess there's no avoiding the Night and Day token in my cube...I would really prefer even just the front side of this to Wharf Infiltrator. Maybe I'll print a custom inner sleeve that covers up just the "Daybound" and "2/1" with an opaque rectangle in the same the same shade of blue or...

    I've really enjoyed Bala Ged Recovery over Regrowth but I may like this even more? The kinds of decks who want this effect most end up accidentally milling quite a lot of their good cards, and I feel like the ability to use it twice is even more valuable than the (admittedly more common)...

    Me too, I just need them to print the reminder text more often :wagg: Has no one posted the Brimaz-killer yet? White's second Rabblemaster at three, but this one uses the awesome tech from Combat Calligrapher (who I sadly recently removed from my cube because they love to muck up the rules...

    For the last two years or so, certainly since the pandemic, Standard playability has been pretty secondary in terms of determining price to EDH, and often times, casual constructed appeal is also more important, so I don't anticipate the Adversaries to be that pricey outside of the first two...

    this is me too it does very much feel like "pushed mythic the card" but at the same time, thinking of it as a modular 3/1 lifelink at 2 CMC or 4/2 lifelink and anthem at 4CMC isn't as busted as it reads...but still undeniably good it's a neat design, with terrible, terrible dark and muddy art...

    I desperately want to include Can't Stay Away but like @blacksmithy said, it's just too hard to find a cut. I'm still extremely unwilling to part with Unburial Rites, which has only gotten better over the years as my cube has become more "fair" while simultaneously creatures have gotten...

    General Favorite Playest Cards?

    This one is spicy. Seems like a rules nightmare for newer players, who do understand the stack but certainly didn't play in a pre-M10 environment. How has it been for your typical drafter? Has there been much conversation ahead of time necessary? I was interested in the Insect until Cloudkin...

    General Favorite Playest Cards?

    Normally I'm not one to let price dissuade me from running a card, but the weirdly high prices on some of the Playtest Cards from the Convention-Exclusive Mystery Boosters made me unwilling to test many of them out. With the reprints tanking prices this week, I think it's a great time to revisit...

    General Favorite Cards You Don't Run

    I really wish the MDFCs were a little more obvious about their backsides on the front, or even just had bigger call-outs to the fact that they're double-sided. It's a little less necessary with the TDFCs because the card text guides you there when appropriate, but with ""new"" elements like...

    General Alternate Wins in Fair Cubes

    This thread is making me seriously reconsider Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. I'm a fairmax cube for the most part, with a few exceptions that have been falling off the list at an alarming rate. I have a 720 cube and no Deceiver Exarch or Pestirmite...but I do run Zealous Conscripts, Restoration...
