    I'm about 90% sure we've had this conversation about mage names before :P (Trainman and Topiary mage are still the best names :>)

    If it were a different color it could be good, but as it stands, green is not very likely to be playing a ton of instants and sorcery spells. I think you're looking for cards more along the lines of: Tallowisp Cloudhoof Kirin Thief of Hope Blademane Baku Skyfire Kirin Tallowisp also seems bad...

    I've been mulling this over for a long time now, but I think evolving wilds is finally of the power level to be worth running in every cube. Evolving Wilds I have compiled a long list of reasons for why Evolving Wilds is actually the best fetch land and why everyone should be playing it:

    Well, I'd be willing to bet we see a lot of cards with art that at least kind of works with the original border. I'm also going to guess that they use this space for a lot of high value reprints (Path and Chalice are eternal format staples, and even relentless rats is over $1 per card). So...

    There are a few mediocre cards which become pretty good when you can splice them on to anything: Spiritual Visit Dampen Thought Evermind Reweave Horobi's Whisper Desperate Ritual Glacial Ray Through the Breach Torrent of Stone Kodama's Might

    You don't have to change anything about it you just have to play every Shock.

    I wouldn't do a one-for-one swap here. Although Jace, Wielder of Mysteries can't protect itself, it doesn't matter as long as there are only 2 cards left in your deck. Jace can mill you for two, then draw a card and win. Jace effectively plays the same role as Thassa's Oracle in the "mill...

    General Tribes in a Can

    I'm surprised no one mentioned: Cryptbreaker This card is the quintessential tribe in a can. It creates an army of on-rate tokens without any trouble, it converts creatures controlled into card draw, and it doesn't need a single other member of it's tribe in the deck to be good. I would argue...

    The Good: (I'm really happy to see some new Ron Spencer art on a magic card in 2020). The Great: (Can I say Bob Ross is my favorite Magic artist now?) The "Why did they choose this art?" I really dislike the art direction for this one, except with the arcane signet which would have looked...

    I know there are the new Gloss eclipse sleeves which supposedly does not have the foil vibrancy issue, although I don't know if they also have a gloss back on not. I also don't know if they get gunky or not.

    I've never been impressed with my attempts at making enchantress//constellation work. The deck can finally "come together" thanks to Theros: Beyond Death allowing for a suitable number of mid-power enablers. The problem is that they all cost 3 or 4 mana, so they run very awkwardly. Setessan...

    This card is not problematic in any capacity. White and Black aggro decks should usually have enough removal to deal with road blocks like this card (if they don't you're not playing enough removal). It is a bit difficult for red decks to deal with, but that's why we have cards like Char...

    I primarily like Mythos of Nethroi because it's a Mono-black card that signals Abzan decks are supported without needing to actually spend slots on 3 color cards. Any black midrange or control deck plays it, Abzan just gets to break it. Ah, Mr. Wagner, welcome to the forums :).

    Maybe we could have Kirblinx set up a channel in the Riptidelab discord for this? It might make things easier.

    General The Best Card Sleeves

    How often do they split? Is it one sleeve every 100 shuffles, or a sleeve every play session, or more or less? One of the primary reasons for my re-sleeving effort is because I wish to eliminate splitting. I'm not a big fan of the thickness, lack of opacity, and shuffle feel of Dragon Shields...
