    I feel like "good creatures make the game worse" is a reductive sentiment. While it is fair to argue that the improvement of creatures over time has made games faster, I think saying that this has somehow made the game worse is an extreme stretch.

    Out of curiosity, what were your top picks?

    We actually already have a sorcery card that adds snow mana, Tundra Fumarole. I built a standard deck back in the day that used the mana from Fumarole to reanimate Narfi, the Betrayer King. It sucked because there were better things to be doing in that standard format than screwing around with...

    It really comes down to how the cards fit together. With something like Ninjas, there's a fairly deep pool of interaction, enablers, and payoffs even though the actual number of cards is small. Colorless doesn't have this yet. One of the reasons why I was specifically calling out the "BFZdrazi"...

    I think you're kind of missing the point here. I'm not saying that Colorless mana and Energy don't have mechanical depth, I'm saying that the two mechanics have card pools that are shallow. Likweise, I am not confident MH3 is going to be able to able to a large amount of depth to the card pools...

    Probably not, because then the card would be completely dependent on Faeries to do anything in most contexts. The reason why Spell Stutter is so cool right now is partially because it doesn't actually need a ton of Faeries to be good, so it ends up functioning more like a glue card than an...

    I totally agree with you! One of my favorite cards in the past year is Spell Stutter, specifically because it asks the drafter to care about something they almost never would in a regular draft. We've got a little bit of support for Faeries in the past, but this was the first Faerie's Matter...

    The online EDH community is a cesspool for neurotypical people as well. You would be hard-pressed to find worse card evaluation skills than with internet commander players. You are not alone!

    To be honest, I think my disappointment with these mechanics comes more from the impact they have on constructed as opposed to how usable they are in Cube. The way I see it, 2016 and 2017 were largely responsible for the decline of paper constructed and creating the atmosphere for Commander to...

    Technically the way they've been handling this ever since Eldraine is letting the victor look at the card file and see if there is anything they would like to have their name on. They get input on name and card design (I think they're even able to submit their own designs still as well)...

    Damn they are really bringing back all of the parasitic mid 2010s archetypes with this one! Energy and BFZdrazi are sad to see, but maybe we’ll get some cool Bestow cards or something?

    I wanted to take a quick guess as to what the main tribes for each two-color pair will be. I'm not going to share all of the art and packaging images that I'm using as sources, but I will be linking any individual cards. We already have confirmed that WR=Mice thanks to Mabel, Heir to Cragflame...

    One last thing: Fblthp makes his triumphant return to Magic after nearly 5 years! We don't know what he's plotting (or, indeed, what "plotting" actually is yet), but rest assured, this little bugger is up to something!

    So Oko is the first good Planeswalker we've had in a minute, but he wasn't the only card shown off today! More borderless lands. Yay... They should consider either printing fewer of these or making them the only lands in the set, or else there will be: I like this card. Very cool. Apparently...
