I’m sad historic isn’t in the set :( So far I haven’t seen anything majorly exciting to me, but that’s okay! It’s another set with 3-color cards though, so I might take a look at my color wheel and see if I feel like changing it up.

I don't like that he was bashing the Magic Spellslingers game for no good reason. Game has been super enjoyable so far, despite the occasional game breaking bug. Imho soft launches are great when they are used to test the waters with a bigger audience without setting high expectations so you can...

Yeah, I cut Goblin Bombardment for Makeshift Munitions for the exact reason Modin mentioned. Bombardment is by far the superior card, but it can be punishingly good because it requires no activation cost (other than the sacrifice obv.). It just ended games too reliably for my taste. The...

Prince Renathal, because I always start at the top with unread threads :D

I'm not complaining if it's shield counters, good mechanic

If you want to use Yorion as precedence for this design, you have to look not only at the drawback (which is the increase in decksize), but also at the reward. Yorion gave you a flyer that blinked your team, both in pie for {W} and {U}. In the case of Prince Renathal, the reward is the padded...

Anyone else tried Magic Spellslingers yet? I've been having a lot of fun so far! It's basically Hearthstone with a few interesting tweaks, set in the multiverse :) https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/download-and-play-spellslingers-now-2022-08-12

The MH2 Incarnations see a bunch of play (Solitude, Grief, etc.), and I imagine Anger is still in the mix in some configurations as well. Red has discard outlets, and team haste is a strong effect! Glory can be a real game changer, and white has gotten some very decent discard outlets in the...

Yeah, more historic is exactly want. Preferably with playable cards in more colors than just white.

I drafted this set yesterday, and honestly, it felt so great! Went 2-1, losing the final when my deck finally spectacularly failed in the 3rd game, but boy did I have some sweet wins with my GUbr ramp deck! The highlight of the evening was when I cast Villainous Wealth for X = 9 against an UR...

I love Prince Renathal. Obviously the challenge is to also fit Reno Jackson into that list so you can heal up back to 40 :P

Easy, you pick white! Porcelain Legionnaire Cloudgoat Ranger Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite Swords to Plowshares Wrath of God Timely Reinforcements Mana Tithe Elite Spellbinder Inquisitor Exarch Cartographer's Hawk It has aggro support, midrange support, control support, targeted removal, mass...

Also, the meme posts are just as precious. Who doesn't fondly remember the bald Whovian trading post! ;)

Yeah, the "how many lands" article linked by Chris earlier in this thread (this one) makes a great point about how you can coax players into playing fewer colors despite having insane fixing, because no matter how good your fixing is, playing more than two colors always comes at a cost. I...

I think Bloodbriar is a better card in general, as it starts with better stats, and also triggers off of fetchlands, treasures, and whatnot. While Rot Shambler technically gets to attack a turn sooner, it might very well be too small to actually push through on turn 3 since it starts as only a 1/1.

If you are purposefully slowing down your environment and want people to have good mana, might I suggest simply adding the gainlands to your basic land box? You can even still include a modicum of better (i.e. untapped) mana fixing in your main cube.

The downside is you need so many, because you have to cross them off. If you were going to do something like this, I think just using vouchers for sharpied common taplands in the basic land box work better. That said, I’m a big fan of using a heavy dose of lands that slightly favor aggro decks...

Meh. It enters the battlefield tapped :(

Green is very bad at enabling aristocrats through sac outlets, it has some decent payoffs though. Narnam Renegade Greenwheel Liberator Hidden Herbalist Rot Shambler Ulvenwald Bear Algae Gharial Lumberknot Purple Wurm Hunger of the Howlpack Squirrel Sanctuary Fecundity Fungal Rebirth Ulvenwald...

By including a few rainbow lands that work for every color pair, like Prismatic Vista :)
