Colorless artifact creature 7-drops with a lower-middling power level aren't really abundant, though. I run Meteor Golem already

Sandstone Oracle Has anyone any kind of experience with this thing? What decks want it? Reanimator, Ramp, Artifacts? Is it good, or rather, consistent enough to be a cool inclusion? I can imagine that it can be sick when reanimated or ramped out, and repeatable discard outlets like Wild Mongrel...

Oh, I think you are right. Well, we almost got Unearth as the Golgari Mechanic for the latest Ravnica set, so there is some hope. But anyways, a card here and there is fine. It's not like I want them to create an archetype that doesn't exist yet. It just needs like two more enablers and maybe...

I am thinking hard weather I want to include a bunch of blood token makers. Falkenrath Forebear Blood Fountain Pointed Discussion Voldaren Epicure Blood Petal Celebrant Bloody Betrayal The black ones and Betrayal have a decent baseline even without madness or artifact synergies, but none of...

I know, I am mostly just sad that white got Hallowblade and now that, but green, the color of our mongrel overlord didn't get anything in terms of a good discard outlet since Noose Constrictor.

Why couldn't this be a green card? :(:mad:

Oh boy, that might be my new favorite {w/b} lifegain signpost. I think I will try this over Indulging Patrician.

I think I like this a bit better. It works in non-beatdown decks. For example, I'd like this in {R/G} ramp decks or value-oriented {U/R} spells decks, both which will often play the defensive role for quite some time. And three mana is just a little too much for this effect. I think I'll cube...

Now that I think about it, it's also a cool card to support mono color decks without being too loud about it

Oh boy I've just played with Drake Haven But I think I like this better than Faith If not because of my black zombie subtheme

Actually it is a Zombify that you can cast as a Raise Dead/Disentomb in madness mode. I am intrigued. This card makes me hyped for Kamigawa 2. I'll probably replace Silver Raven with it. That is cool. I want a creepy 6/6 Healer's Hawk doll. A very non-parasitic artifacts payoff.

Twinblade Geist however is a slam dunk for me! A nice body for Wx Equipment/Voltron decks. Pouncer was too much for me, so I am happy to either replace Kor Blademaster or if I can run it alongside. I was hoping for quite some time now to get Fencing Ace with small upside at uncommon again. There...

It is flexible as a 4drop and 7drop in one package, but it's also quite boring. No synergy potential at all. I'll happily play this in limited and stick with Deadbridge Goliath (and Vengevine) in cube.

DRC?

Tempo-2-drop with some graveyard synergies attached ... who wins? Nightveil Sprite Baithook Angler I like the Sprite's constant mill/card selection I like the ninjutsu/blink Hook-Haunt Drifter possibilities

That's a cool 1-drop. It can get a few hits in early and then start making wolves. Also potentially useful in non-aggro decks.

Carrion my Wayward Son is an aggressive {W/B} aristocrats deck. It wants to outtempo the opponent fast and brutally, but it has some staying power too thanks to it's great recursion. It's also stacked with good removal to clear some path's to victory.

That is for sure the most intriguing card so far for me.

I know there is a lot to come, but so far, this set hasn't got me hyped really. Disturb is back but in an weird way with a bad enchantment theme attached, Exploit and Training are kinda boring, filler mechanics. Blood tokens could be really good but I don't really like the flavor and it just...

And cube can actually be very cheap. Once you got a cube together, you don't even have to change anythying (purely theoretical of course).
