    Oh, and it is the final day before Onderzeeboot has a lot of work to do!

    Hmm, maybe I should have made it you may play ~ for it's entry cost so that lands could be played from exile.

    Ouch. Sad to hear. Hope you have a much better one this year!

    The sad part of Gruul is that flavour wise it should not be a may. And then things start to get iffy. Lands are a core part of mtg. Sacrificing a few is okay, but all the time and as an additional cost. Pfew.

    Copying without thrive is strong enough (and happens sometime in magic). Thing is, the strength depends on the amount of token makers/strength of the card (you do not have any token makers in your three cards). There are many examples in mtg that go exponential: Scute swarm Biowaste blob...

    Big wall of text, sorry Gruul: impulsive, chaotic, reckless, impatient, anti-civilisation. Modus operandi: invade a part of the city, destroy everything and live off the loot until exhausted. Rinse and repeat. Thing is: the modus implies that there are no lands for Gruul. Furthermore...

    Aside from the religious bagage. He did not fly… that said, much better persist/undying riff

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Iirc I read somewhere (maybe the old mothership, maybe phyrexia) that in the early days the art style was anything goes. In other words: there was no world building. Along the way a rough guide book what things should look like came along. This guide was made by Pete Venters who oversaw the art...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    True. Thing is, it is a good card if you can put a basic land in your graveyard in turn 1 or 2. However, it is definitely haggling when discarding your only land on turn 1 and not drawing a land to cast the wurm. The wurm is even in low powered likely weak on turn 4 (unless you have smokestack...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It is a strong comeback card with wildfire Rogue elephant Orcish lumberjack Raze Thing is, low powered as I play, it is often a dead card in your hand until much later due to not having a basic land in the graveyard. At that time a 3/2 is not going to cut it.

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    It is definitely a card I run in green aggro in my urza cube. Why? well the life often does not matter in aggro, but the multiple bodies it can generate is. Yes 8 mana, but it is over two turns. Thing is with aggro, one often runs out of gas at a certain point. The creatures of your opponent...

    In order: roar of the wurm Beast attack Grizzly fate Rise of the ants Why? Well roar has cheap flashback so is useful in many decks. Beast attack due to the surprise factor. Grizzly fate which is fun with threshold. Leaves rise of the ants, which is compared to the others low powered. Which is...

    For one more mana you get lands... Awaken is much stronger, it also ramps.

    Well, working in an old border cube and having battleforge angel which invalidates all other creatures in that cube does that. Tldr: I am curious how to balance the angel with any old border cube. That said: I am thinking on an admission from the old timers viewpoint. Edit: I do not mean this...

    Do not underestimate a land that draws cards. It will feel like the thing that does not win the game, but it does. Mtg is an atrocious game. (Yes autocorrect from attrition, too funny to correct)

    Necromancy? Or a variant thereof. (Or voodoo, but that has nothing to do with corpses).
