Well, the idea is you get a bit of flexibility and planning on an aggressive white drop, but the trade-off is that your opponent knows what you're up to. I agree that you don't want too much revealing going on, but this never felt like you were exposing everything. I suppose you could reword it...

This song has been making me happy for days now: Also, what's happening...? Those betting sites are setting a whole country up for a night of disappointment, aren't they? Like, we had a really good song in 2014, and we would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for that meddling...

Good point, and yes it does imo. I don't think what white is missing is card advantage in this sense though, it's finding a way to get to those answers. As David Bohlander pointed out somewhere up here: As we can see from his link, this weakness is entirely by design. I wish they would find a...

I put my first attempt up in the Custom Cards: The Lab.

Thraben Inspector and Militia Bugler are gas!

See discussion starting here.

Yeah, I wish they would print another card in the same vein as Demonic Pact. It's such a cool design, and I wouldn't mind slightly more card that would push you in the same direction! Of course... I do run customs... Maybe I should just create one if I want one?

I don't think Captive Audience really operates in the same space. It's effects are far more impactful than Demonic Pact's abilities are. Basically, if you get to trigger all three abilities, your chances of winning the game are very high, very high. I expect the ROI on bouncing it back to hand...

I honestly don't think {B/G} can support Pact in his cube with only four options that (on average) won't all be in the draft (remember his cube is 500 cards big), and that you're fighting over with other green drafters. You really want at least 3 ways to get rid of Pact, provided you have...

In my current 450 cube I run: Kor Skyfisher Extricator of Sin Forsake the Worldly Tragic Arrogance Riftwing Cloudskate Repeal Thrashing Brontodon Qasali Slingers Beast Within Cloudstone Curio Smokestack Dinrova Horror Consign // Oblivion Silumgar's Command Knight of Autumn Dromoka's Command...

People have been building around it in my cube, and it's been good. More importantly though, it's been fun! Edit: be sure to include enough generic bounce in blue, a Kor Skyfisher/Flickerwisp effect or two in white, and enough enchantment removal in white and green. I think you need around...

Oh man, now I wish they did another Planar Chaos-style set with a bunch of alternate timeline colorshifted reprints!

I don't know who here has an SCG premium account (I don't), but last weekend was pretty big for Dominic: http://www.starcitygames.com/articles/38398_Whir-Prison-Is-Moderns-Newest-Torture-Device.html :)

We've never seen Teyo Verada and Davriel on a card before either. I'm excited to see what they make of those characters mechanically, despite my misgivings about so many planeswalkers in one set. Also, Sorin escaped from his stony prison? And Nahiri is on Ravnica too? He maaaaaaad! This...

https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/closer-look-stained-glass-planeswalkers-2019-03-08 Oh no... Every prerelease card pool will have 7 planeswalkers... What could go wrong?

Can I do a Yawgmoth planeswalker prediction based off of Serra? + ability: Culling the Weak/Phyrexian Tower effect - ability: Corrupt ultimate: (permanent?) Yagmoth's Will

This one was (these five were?) great!

Yeah, I agree it's the most likely scenario. MaRo has stated before that planeswalker design space is much narrower than you would think, so it would be really weird for them to go ham and print 36 new walkers in one set (WotC confirmed that each of the 36 stained glass windows is showing a...

That sounds like a reasonable solution. Either that or they would have to do some serious downgrading on the power level of planeswalkers in this to avoid standard becoming a mess. Maybe walkers with only minus abilities, so they're effectively charms-like cards. You know, something like...

There's a foil planeswalker in every prerelease pack, source. I could do a sarcastic "yay" if anybody wants me to? I mean, I do like some of the planeswalkers, but I think most of them don't make for very fun limited games... I've been cutting more and more planeswalkers from my cube, to the...
