    The rebate still doesn't make it cost {2}{G} though, you still need to have three mana in order to cast it. The extra value is nice and it helps you cast some bigger stuff in Pauper (maybe in the cascade deck? @Kirblinx ?), but I this doesn't have the same play patterns that a {1}{G} with the...

    This is the Friendly Union Representative I was looking for out of the Riveteers. Thank you WOTC.

    That's good! Spark trooper is actually one of the first rares I ever opened. Just FYI I added an addendum to my original post, and I expanded on my initial thoughts greatly.

    I think this is supposed to be the Siege Rhino... although it's really closer to Mantis Rider. I'm not that big of a fan to be honest. I'm sure this card is fine, and it may even see Standard play, but I'm skeptical about its Cube prospects. The main reason why people are willing to take and...

    Oh BTW I think I'm done being in shambles now lol.

    Nice Drake Haven enabler you got there... :) I think instant speed Chart a Course is probably good anywhere, but it's especially nice for reanimator//discard shenanigans.

    I think this card is just good. You obviously need some number of token producers but I don't believe you need actual dedicated support outside of "good cards that make tokens." This can turn a single Gilded Goose into a 2/2 or 3/1 factory. It makes Tireless Tracker into a Felidar Retreat. It...

    I never would have guessed that the owner of a treasure Capitalism Cube would be excited by a set with a major Capitalism treasure component ;)

    I wish this set had Strixhaven Vibes, that set was full of great cards.

    Great post as always!! Glad you changed this back, I liked the idea of playing stuff like Burning Oil as additional removal but not at the expense of most of the Face Burn. It was a good experiment, though! Thanks again!

    This is supposed to be a train conductor and she's... mediocre. I want to like this card, but it's just not there. It's got the potential to function as a cool engine piece, but the fact that it has to die (not leave the battlefield) in order to get the cards back makes this extremely...

    Broadly speaking I agree with what you're saying here. Rarity is supposedly meant to have something to do with card complexity, but that has gotten somewhat muddled in recent years as complexity has increased across the board. Likewise, the focus of low-rarity cards has shifted from being simple...

    Please elaborate?

    More White counter spells are exactly what the doctor ordered, and this one slows down board wipes by a turn while coming attached to a 3/2!

    This card is single-handedly going to revive the “where to place Kird Ape” debate. I think it’s Mono-black with upside. I really wish the ability to cast cards with collection counters was tied to the cards themselves and not controlling Evelyn. I think she’s too fragile for a lot of...

    Oh true I think it's ridiculous that these cards saw no play for like half a decade and then all of the sudden everyone decided they were good because they were in a crappy standard set. He's got the 10 treasure tokens for Revel in Riches

    I think most of these cards look super mid, and not in a "fun in low power" kind of way. I think they have a lot of words and not a lot of substance outside of the Command Zone... ...except for Anhelo. I agree with you, this guy is pretty cool! I don't think he has the best rate but being...
