Yes because a multimillion dollar company really needs more profit. It's not like sales from standard legal sets go directly to funding the next standard legal sets or anything silly like that! I should just make this clear, I don't have an issue with WOTC doing stuff for charity, or even...

Just use weaker payoffs that will be made good by the enablers. Necropolis Fiend and Dead Drop might be bad in a normal context, but when they're less expensive and being fueled by great filtering spells. There are a lot of graveyard payoffs that are too expensive, slow, or resource intensive...

WOTC's already partnering with this charity group with multiple things for arena. In addition, DnD, the Mindcrack community, and many, many others are donating to this group. One could also just, you know, donate directly instead of giving 40% of their money to a multimillion dollar corporation...

At that point though, wouldn't it just be better to give the 50 bucks to charity instead of giving 30 to charity and 20 to Wizards of the Coast?

I kinda want to cube an errata'd version of that with Equip {1}. The card is sweet!

This is the worst possible timeline.

I think part of the allure of this format is over-statted bodies for the cmc. Blue, for example, doesn't get 2/1s for one, let alone with upside, like Sage's Row Savant would here. Plus, it sounds like you're adding a bunch of cards that translate to being 1 mana 2/2s. It looks like you're...

If you wanna get really spicy with the Ogres/Demons: Tomb of UramiSkullknocker OgreRakdos, the Showstopper And then Rakdos Roustabout As an additional gold ogre payoff. Also Ebon Drake is still really bad even at 1B, it's just slightly less bad than normal.

Ancestral Blade is an Eager Cadet with a Short Sword attached to it. That is not a bad magic card right there.

Me acquiring cards for my stoneforge package: I think this is a good list to start with, although I think Deathrender feels a bit iffy. I'm actually a really big fan of the new Giant's Skewer card from Throne of Eldraine. I think you could make it work at a higher power level by errataing...

Well it's a character tier list, not simply a card tier list. It's not so much a tool as a list of "how much I like each Planeswalker." Like Chris said:

Not as angry as I am about not getting a Killer Rabbit card... :p

Ardenvale Tactician and some of the other adventures seem like they'll be great in this format.

It's ranking per character. For example- Elspeth is in A tier because she is one of the best characters and has some of the best cards. The Wanderer is in D tier for having an interesting premise but no good cards. Vivien is in F tier for being a pointless character with derivative cards.

This format manages to be a lot of fun basically just because the cards are so flavorful. At my prerelease, I trapped a Clackbridge Troll in a tower, and proceeded to beat down it's controller with a Goat token holding a Giant's Skewer. I don't think it would have been as fun if the cards...

Here's my Planeswalker Tier List: I feel pretty confident about most of these ratings. I based my decisions on both card power and how much I like the character. Arguably, I could have put Ugin in S tier and Chandra in A. Some of the walkers in C tier could go up or down a tier as well- however...

I pretty much only start these because I want an easy-to-find place with all of people's adds. It makes it easier to synthesize data.

But not wanting legendary lands in standard is completely relevant as to why the castles from this set aren't legends. Hall of Heliod's Generosity is both a card that is a callback to something older and not something that's ever going to be a part of a standard mana base. Therefore, it is...
