lmao it's gonna be a whole cycle of cards that make no sense whatsoever I'm SO here for it the thing about harmonize that interests me is actually this random draft common cute cat: like this thing's built for harmonize in two distinct ways and I could see that shaping card decisions in an...

Honestly, endure should have been "a 0/0 spirit with X counters on it", like Amass - they've done it before and then either way the endure card plays well with Hardened Scales style effects or whatever. (I bet they didn't do that for power level reasons though.) Harmonize is flashback with...

some other things that excite me: and the new mechanics are all things I'm at least marginally excited about for cube even if these specific cards are not it:

2brid's back baby awoooooooo

I think between Alpine Guide and the even more recent Horned Stoneseeker, it's more of a bend than a break? It hasn't been done before in this way, but red has gotten extra land drops on (mostly) bad green gold cards... alternate answer is: Nahiri's Lithoforming "no, because red can get...

before we figured out how fast the format was, I had an eighteen land (plus one Expedition Map) mono-red draft deck in triple Zendikar limited, featuring Eternity Vessel and not one but two copies of Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle so I guess Zell will also let me chase that high too

even adding the "bounce a land on end step" does not make this feel monored to me. but also I like it. my only complaint is that Zell's two attributes are "punch things hard" and "protect the hot dogs" and this does not do the latter edit: oh! and also I get that Zell's not popular enough to...

They did give us "Taigam's Scheming now has surveil" so I'm holding out hope they'll do that more often

MaRo's on the record as saying he wishes something like that had been done, I think - he wouldn't change much about Alpha but he'd mess with card types a bit (make Instant a supertype so that you can just have Instant Creature instead of "flash", and also add stuff like Sorcery - Fire and hammer...

yeah yeah infinite with persist blah blah blah, but she says each creature! she's secretly an anthem! she puts your opponent outta their misery real fast! (commander, not in "real" set)

The Spongebob Secret Lairs are actually fire and you cannot possibly change my mind because for once they actually committed far enough to "we are making a deliberately absurd thing": full spoilers for them all are in this reddit thread

Dromar should have returned every creature of that color except itself, change my mind

Pokemon TCG has a legality code printed on the card in the same corner as the rarity and set symbol and artist and collector number. Their version of Standard is defined as "all cards with codes E, F, or G" or whatever they're currently on at the moment: They've only had it for five years but...

if this said "attacked with a Dragon", or with a legendary creature, or with this creature... sigh

More than good enough! big fan of all the random conjuration stuff, if alchemy has to exist you bet I want something that splits into two Mitotic Slimes or a Kari Zev that conjures an actual Ragavan or the 1/1 idiot that makes a Training Grounds

They did that in Duskmourn too: Ethrimik, Imagined Fiend Welcome the Darkness Eager Flameguide Unnatural Summons and if you count things that could easily have been made paper, but as worded aren't: Housemeld Verdant Dread Wary Zone Guard Seven cards out of thirty that feel like they came from...

"Stop hitting yourself!"

is the theme "art I'm vibing" cause this is 9/9 bangers

The former - think of this like Lord of the Rings, which had the problem that b/r were the best colors by a mile at common but definitely had coherent draft archetypes, complete with typical signpost uncommons. It was a totally functional set to draft.

if only Crashing Footfalls was Kindred - Rhino so you could play Thalia and then make it uncounterable this doesn't actually work but work with me here
