Yeah for sure! Atsushi seems like a strong card that can slot into a lot of decks without being particularly broken. I think she is very playable.

Two full art land cycles! One for the Feudal Japan side of the world and one for the new Cyberpunk big cities! These will be in roughly 1/3rd of set and draft boosters, and one foil copy will be in every collector booster.

Very playable new 4-drop dragon. What a lovely Baneslayer! I think I will be playing this card if it's not a $30, because it is a dragon with relevant abilities for Aggro and Midrange decks alike. Perhaps this is a playable card in Izzet Dragons or Mardu Midrange/Aristocrats/Reanimator. I'm...

And here is a thread for the actual preview cards...

Starting a new thread because the other one is 4 pages of debate about the set's theme. If you want to have a debate about the set's aesthetic or cyberpunk theme, do so in this linked thread. This new thread is for conversation about the new cards and mechanics. Here's Kaito. Quite good...

I'm really sorry you feel that way, and I hope this set exceeds your expectations. For what it's worth I know what it's like to feel down about Magic. I remember feeling like WOTC was actively making the game worse between the time Khans rotated and Guilds of Ravnica came out by decreasing the...

I'll do this too! Cube Hit: All of the incidental support for "spells matter," between great cheap spells and worthwhile payoffs has made it much easier to justify running high densities of redundant cantrips and burn in synergy formats without taking away from anything else. Cube Miss: I...

New Kamigawa Best Plane Confirmed

Wow I love this art. Feels straight out of the original!

Useful, thanks Brad!

In this one. I don't know if you were around for 2016-18 magic, but it was bad. I think this is mostly due to the fact that so much more standard is played now than in the pre-arena era. The average player usually didn't have access to high-tier standard on a daily basis unless they were...

Of course!

Dude we haven't even seen the set yet. Mark Rosewater has been saying on his blog for months now that this set has plenty of elements designed to make OG Kamigawa fans happy. Look at this response on his blog from yesterday! I don't think they would return to a world and just not have any of...

True, VOW had a lot of cool designs. Most of the cards just weren't all that powerful, which means that a Cube playing in the lower portion of the power band is going to be able to utilize the fun cards more easily. The higher power options are kind of boring, though, which feels bad :confused...

I am about 90% sure that the land cycle in Capenna will be Shard Colored triomes. I think they will probably be called something else though. I heard someone say that the name will be "(3-Color Demon Crime Family Name) Turf." I'm also excited to see what a Bant demon looks like. Demons are...

I'm really excited for this set, Neon Dynasty and Capenna look like they are going to be standouts from a flavor perspective. I hope they are closer to Strixhaven or Midnight Hunt in terms of card quality as opposed to Crimson Vow, AFR, or Kaldheim, I really want to utilize cards from these sets...

I will have them to you before Monday.

Yes. A 3/2 flier for 4 with no other abilities is awful. It can't block well, and it's very boring. I don't think anyone would want to take and play this unless they absolutely have to. Probably. Most of this card's power came from it's ability to be stacked with high-cost and {X} cost instants...

I really like this Cube so far, but one thing has been bothering me since I first looked at it: Aven Sentry This card looks so bad compared to the entire rest of the Cube. There's even another bird in the same color and mana value that's basically the same thing but better. I get that there...

Well, I found myself nodding along with most of what you were saying, so I figure that's a good start! Honestly, that doesn't sound too reductive. While there are some Cubes cataloged on this site that don't necessarily function in the way you described, I think the majority of people's main...
