    You know what, I've been thinking it over, and I think these creature lands are even better than I'm giving them credit for. The thing is, you run these instead of a basic land. So in exchange for running one more tapped mana source, you get potentially an extra spell. Would you replace one of...

    I think the black rogue is very environment dependent. A 2/3 menace for 2B or a land is already a reasonable offer, but if you can reliably trigger the condition, you're looking at a 5/3 menace for 2B, that's brutal! So, in environments that have a heavy graveyard or mill component, I think the...

    I think you're underestimating how good some of the creatures are. Blue-based control decks want to hit a land drop every turn, and that shitty blue pseudo-flyer is a land that turns into a beatstick in the late game. That's exactly what that deck is interested in!

    That was my first impression, but Niblis doesn't draw you cards!

    I'm intrigued by all of these. I have no idea if I will actually run all of these, but there's definitely more than 0 blue cards I'm interested in :)

    I don't think Velrun is saying blue is a bad support color for landfall strategies, but it's a fact that blue has the fewest landfall cards of all colors, together with black, and it's not close with either red or green. Black and blue have 13, white 15, red 21, and green 24! And that's not...

    You got a great {g} landfall creature though! That Mammoth is huge!

    Wow, a lot of babies (two is a lot, right?)! Congrats to both of you as well! Hope your wife and daughter are doing better now that it's been a few months!

    /me ignores rest of the post. Congrats to you both! Best of luck in the coming months. Don't forget to treasure this time, something that's easy to forget at times when good nights are few and far between and the insecurities of fresh parenthood hit you :) Also... slightly jealous at a wife...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    That's a hopeless quest. There's only so many combinations you can use anyway, and the number of combinations that fit land + spell is going to be exceedingly small. I'm not going to shackle my creativity by adhering to strict naming conventions just for the sake of it :p Also, who says only...

    You switch the flavor around, it's not someone going on an adventure, it's somewhere you can go on an adventure. This is the perfect place for land art with people in them (you'll notice the small figure in the bottom right corner ;) ). I played around with alternative aftermath...

    I like Precarious Span! Mountains and architecture :) My other pick is still the Lighthouse. There's nothing in that picture really, that couldn't exist in the world of Magic. It's just that it hits a little too close to home. In other words, it looks so much like something that could (or...

    I had been eyeing Hallar, the Firefletcher, back in Dominaria, but there wasn't enough there to make a dedicated kicker archetype. Verazol bridges the theme to blue in the best way possible for me ({R/G} and {G/U} form the Temur shard in my cube), so it might be worth revisiting this theme to...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Typed lands are ultimately better, I agree, as they can also be fetched, meaning there's additional ways to get them into play for decks that don't easily self-discard. But that does make the wording a little trickier. How's this? PS. I just noticed you're missing a period in your reminder...

    "You can play CARDNAME from your graveyard. If you do, it enters the battlefield with a Reclaim counter on it. T: Add C. T: Add <color1> or <color2>. Activate this ability only if CARDNAME has a Reclaim counter on it."
