Atherpunk just makes no sense on the Wild West. The only reason Steampunk can work with a western setting is because the Wild West era was essentially the height of the Steam era.

Everything Wrong with Thunder Junction. 1. Terra Nullius Terra Nullius is a latin phrase meaning "nobody's land." It is a trope often associated with the harsh territories that were settled during the 19th and early 20th centuries, like Australia and the American West: Wide open spaces...

No! My Reddit Karma! I guess it was Fair Game!

Everyone wearing a cowboy hat is actually historically accurate. I'm not kidding. Ever since the first Cowboy hat, the "Boss of the Plains" hat, was invented by John B. Stetson in 1865, it became indispensable for most settlers out west. Cowboy hats were good at keeping a person protected from...

What’s wrong with the art? Bill Nye feels like a fairly normal Druid to me…

Yes. They basically went through tunnels that connected the Planes.

This is the first 6 drop to pique my interest in a while. Beyond the nice reference to the culture of the best U.S. state, it's also just a good value card. I like how Beau scales with the length of the game. If you ramp out Bonny with dorks or cheat her in with reanimation, Beau is going to be...

Bill Nye the Cactus Guy!?

I agree, but I think a card which relies on a single very specific mechanic that doesn’t have a super broad base of support yet is not going to be able to find a way in to most Cubes. It’s definitely possible to build a Cube with a deserts matter theme, but that use case is not going to be...

I feel like the Wurm being tied to deserts kind of kills it for Cube. Maybe even constructed too depending on wether or not there are any good ones in the set besides the Dual lands. Otherwise, this card isn’t going to have legs until DMU rotates at the earliest.

If you’re gonna make the posts I’m gonna like and comment. I wondered why I liked this card so much! Yeah, I’ll take 2024 Penumbra Wurm with a cooler type! The art isn’t even a true downgrade either, which is nice!! Looks like Scam got a new toy. I feel like any of these in White or Red could...

That's kind of the one annoying thing about spoiler season on the forums. I feel like people are more willing to interact with posts about a single card rather than posts about multiple cards, especially if it's a fairly short positive post and/or short post saying, "HOLY MOLY, THIS CARD IS SO...

Slickshot Show-Off is easily my favorite card of the set so far. It starts as a hasty Storm Crow that grows for the turn as you cast noncreature spells. The potential damage output offered by this card can not be ignored, and I am very excited to give it a try!

First Spoiler! Cactus Conferral {3}{B}{G} Sorcery (Uncommon) Return up to one target creature from your graveyard to the battlefield. Return up to one target permanent card from your graveyard to your hand. Although the cactusfolk culture is still in its infancy, the folks have already...

I think they're still doing a kickoff livestream where a bunch of WOTC employees talks about the set, just not the flashily edited video with internet micro celebrities.

In Europe, they don't actually want people brandishing their god-given Second Amendment freedom machines (unless you're in Switzerland, where they actually have a stronger and significantly more responsible gun culture than in the United States).

Siege Rhino

I think the ten two-color cards are definitely a good place to start when putting together a disguise package for a low-power Cube. However, I think playing more is usually better for face-down creature environments. You probably want to play as many disguise cards as possible to maximize the...

This isn't actually how the common disguise creatures play in limited. At least as far as Karlov Manor is concerned, almost all of the two-color disguise creatures are playable in any deck with at least one of their colors, allowing each card to go into 7/10 possible two-color decks. The power...

The nice thing is that the Teaser usually contains the things that MaRo thinks will be the most exciting for players. Most of the things that were leaked and also in the teaser are pervasive themes of the set. I think this could be a banger!
