    General Fight Club

    Kamala runs the risk of being secret land destruction using his first ability. With something like Pyroclasm and enough green mana he becomes one-sided mass land destruction.

    Don’t worry, I’m sure Fable of the Mirror-Breaker “scales with power level”.

    My cube is Bracket 4.000 (the description is accurate to three decimal places).

    tangle spider Whether I am playing this using Lila’s ability in response to Rare-B-Gone, or ambushing Lila when she tries to attack, Tangle Spider gets the job done. It seems that Rare-B-Gone has become even more annoying in terms of Gatherer not matching printed cards. Believe it or not, I...

    General Fight Club

    From favourite to least liked: Skimmer is the one that most intrigues me. There are so many reasons why a card might leave my graveyard: dredge, flashback, reanimation, Crucible of Worlds… it feels very open-ended. I like having an anthropomorphic kingfisher as well. The siege covers some...

    I’m waiting until 360 cards have been listed, then I’m going to build the Infinite Power Creep Cube. So balanced. Such player agency. Every card can be answered!

    That art makes me want to build a whole new cube. Annie Stegg has only produced the art for one other card, but I hope will be continuing to produce work for future sets.

    How is Trainmaster a rationalist Sisyphus? The joy is palpable in their description of Rakshasha's Bargain and, if we are to agree with Camus when he writes "il faut imaginer Sisyphe heureux", we must deduce that if Trainmaster is happy they have rejected rationalism and embraced the absurdity...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Probably more ninjitsu, but it wasn't played ver much before getting cut. {3}{B} casting cost and {1}{B} ninjitsu cost, similar to Ninja of the Deep Hours, would have made it an all-star.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I ran this card for a while in my cube, using ninjitsu as part of a blink archetype across Esper colours. Although the saboteur effect is powerful (unrestricted choice as well as permanent exile of the card) and you can reset the counter by blinking it, the card always felt a little clunky and...

    This wouldn’t work because rule 702.40 says that affinity reduces the cost of a spell based on how many of something you control, but rule 108.4 says you only control permanents and spells on the stack. You don’t control cards in your graveyard, you own them.

    It is kinda funny that if you look on a preview thread you see cards from a quarter of a century ago. It also strikes me as a bit odd that we have two releases this year set in fantasy worlds based on East Asian myths and cultures, as we have the Avatar: the Last Airbender coming out in November.

    I made some assumptions (you kept a 2 land hand and didn't mulligan) but based on hypergeometric calculations the chance of this is 0.04%. My personal view is that this is the cost of playing magic, and games that have tried to "solve" the mana system are less satisfactory. My favourite...

    As a state-based action it goes to a zone that doesn't have a name.
