But note that Grab doesn't untap the creature, sadly.

Grusilda Has anyone ever tested her in a "normal" cube? If your 5-drops are okay to need to untap with, she seems pretty decent.

Oooh, you're right. I thought he wanted to blink the saga in response to it's EtB.

As far as I know, you can't steal permanently with The Aktoan War, since it's worded like Banishing Light and not like Oblivion Ring. Which is the reason they updated cards like these in the first place.

Act of Aggression The very flexible casting cost and the instant speed option to kill one or two attackers make this one probably the best, after the Conscripts.

I am pretty hyped now. I don't think that madness will be the third returning mechanic, but I won't let my hope die until thursday. And even then, if it turns out to be undying or investigate, I'll be almost as happy. I am also really interested in the "new drawback" that allows them to create...

Damn, Endoskeleton is a bad bad Equipment

I think a non-singleton cube recreating a standard environment could be very fun. You could just run as many copies of each card as you think you need. Sure, Ebony Owl Netsuke is a very narrow card, but if you can consistently draft that deck and it's just two slots you've spend for that...

Didn't we have only one praetor showing up?

I was looking for a way to have very in flavor decks being played, but still keep some aspects of limited. That's the best solution I've found so far and I am very excited to try it out :)

I think most of the evergreens are evergreen for a reason. I really think flying, trample, vigilance, first strike, deathtouch, double strike, scry, haste and the new member, ward, really deserve a honorable mention at least. I think that's all of the evergreens except the horrible hexproof...

The designs were shit and underpowered, and it followed after the mirrodin affinity horror, where many players left. It's beyond me how they struggled for so many years to understand, that a well made set taking place in that japanese myth inspired world could be a hit today. I'll just approach...

Okay, I working on quest cards for a format idea I've had. It works like this, basically: You get a small sealed pool of 30 cards, but all fitting your chosen guild. Then, you'll play multiple rounds, but before each round (even before you tune your deck for it), there will be a quest revealed...

I can be there for the draft, but wouldn't be able to play on the same night.

But why would they promote it that way, if it's not mostly neon lights and cyber ninjas? If that would be onla ~half the set, they could've used the two pictures they decided to show off, to actually portrait the set like it's gonna look like?

Of course this is subjective, but for me, personally, they totally ruined what made me fall in love with the world of kamigawa. The feudal japan/shinto style with vast plains, gigantic forest and gloomy bamboo swamps, all barely touched by people. That being said, I don't like technological...

Demonic Lore I didn't see anyone ever mention this card on these boards so far, but I think it's a very real option for Demonic Pact number 2. I topdecked it tonight, cast Teferi's Time Twist on it and then destroyed it before it could do me any damage by sacrificing my Thrashing Brontodon. I...

And I just hate them right now for actaully ruining the loveliness of kamigawa like this. It hurts and there's a chance I would've rather not gone back at all. But maybe I'll get a new ninja I can accept or they will give us a showcase style that doesn't look like futuristic bullshit.

You got a few things wrong. LotR set will go into modern, but not into stadard. The Warhammer Set will just be commander decks. The draftable commander set will be the d&d set, it's called commander legends: Baldur's gate or something.

Arena has been a very useful tool for me to teach new players and convince them to stick with the game until they're fit enough to participate in actual cube drafts :)
