This is basically Titan's Strength that gives a permanent +1/+1 and trample boost. I'm somewhat interested in this, especially for giving Prowess creatures trample.

I think the fairy-tale references are a little more spread out than in the last set, as well. Most of Throne of Eldraine was Arthurian flavored, with only a few fairy-tale cards mixed in. As such, the references were mostly contained to one card per story. For example, there was only one Gilded...

Another easy RTR (although this time both the Secret Lair and Unfinity versions are a little closer than usual).

They did, but why talk about Draft Chaff when we could talk about Otters??

Do you need to cut from a gold slot for Otter? I could easily see it being spreadsheeted as a red Instant, and I think your Cube is low power enough that you could count the 2/2 flyer as the "main" face no problem if you wanted! Food for thought. Funny how such an eminently fair card ended up...

Phenominal one-drop.

Wake up babes new Delver of Secrets just dropped.

These two cards seem great. One is a burn spell with a (whatever that M19 Aven Windscout variant draft was called) attached and the other is an instant-speed draw three. I like both of these!

Yeah it was a metaphor. Australia was basically Britain’s Prison Realm.

Yes. Australia was a penal colony for Great Britain during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Instead of throwing people in jail, they just sent them to Australia instead.

Exactly! I think the Omenpaths represent the opening of the multiverse and the broadening of horizons for its inhabitants (both literally and metaphorically). I think that's part of the reason why we're going to so many weird settings: Omenpaths are letting everything feel more connected even...

I agree. I think the game is very fun, but mostly because the artistic portion is so good that the experience as a whole becomes enjoyable. The art style, the music, and the story are all well-done and make the gameplay feel very immersive.

I think that may be a little bit of an overly-cynical take. WOTC usually plays things pretty safe as a company, so the idea that they would make a bunch of risky sets in short succession just to push other people's IP that is in no way guaranteed to succeed seems a bit far-fetched. What seems...

I'm not necessarily sure I would call most of these pushed; they're just all high-quality. I don't think any of these cards are pushing the envelope on what a Magic card can be or do, but they're close enough to the border that they're way more interesting than average. The set almost has a...

Spellbook Vendor costs 1W— it’s actually a good card!!

Oh gotcha. I thought you were talking about the mechanic and not the card itself. I’d be willing to bet money that this is the work of Casual Play Design. Ruining cards is their favorite pastime!

I think the point of Bargain is to shorten the text for all of the cards using this additional cost and to make the theme more flavorful, since it’s a main mechanic of the set. Especially because they can make cards that care about when you Bargain now.
