    I agree that people can be more relaxed with classifications, but I disagree with it not mattering. Let's say one's golgari section consists of two gold power outliers, while the selesnya section is just Nature's Chant and Kitchen Finks. Let's assume the white and black section are mostly...

    Sets (MoM) April of the Machines Previews

    Wasn't today the day where they wanted to have their preview season debut stream? It's not that I'm bursting with excitement, I really just want to know what battle does to decide whether I want to integrate this into my Pokécube before having it printed these days.

    If there is a realistic chance, that Saheeli is played in a nonblue and in a nonred deck, I'd go with her. Otherwise it would feel more adequat to use the – probably slightly stronger – gold card for this effect.

    Is this card good? Simple red spell {1}{R} Sorcery Draw a card and create a treasure token. Flashback {2}{R}{R} I want it to be good but not bah-roken. Like, somewhere between Tormenting Voice and Expressive Iteration. But with the treasure component. It's just that I always misevaluate...

    You're right, that was dismissive and stupid. I apologize.

    Not to mention how much damage the card type has done to the game play. With planeswalkers, free, snowballing value became the new normal and creatures had to be pushed like crazy to compete. I guess that damage is impossible to fix thanks to the "eternal world" we're living in.

    Flavorwise, Planeswalkers were always akward. "No, you can't directly attack that guy, he's a creature. I know, he might be a super powerful leader of something, but he's just a minion, like the ohers. Oh, that girl, fighting for me over there? Well, her you can attack directly. You know, she...

    I wonder how much it being a 9-drop matters. I have no experience with Emrakul 2.0, but as it is Mewtu goes off quite a few turn later than your average Mindslaver activation. Maybe it isn't that bananas when people haven't left much in their hands and the slow deck casting 9-drops is somewhat...

    I don't like, that they use these samey frames for all the UB products, where each color has the same structure. It's not like the current card frames have much color left anyway, so the structures at least helped differentiate the colors somewhat.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Thank you for your input, your concerns are reasonable and you are right. However, a 4 mana 2/2 would just feel too weird for Mewtwo and I don't love the wordiness of your design. So I tried to come up with a simpler solution for the same problem. Mewthree {9} Legendary Pokémon - Psycho Flying...

    Which knobs could I tune to make it weaker? On the same power level as Mew preferably. And wothout losing the mindslaver ability completely (I just love that).

    I reworked them both a bit, making them more castable and more beatable. Mewtwo {9} Legendary Pokémon - Psycho Flying, Ward 3 When ~ etb, you gain control of target opponent during that player’s next turn. After that turn, that player takes an extra turn. 10/7 Costs two less now and got ward...

    I am trying to design Mew and Mewtwo for my Pokécube as "super hard to cast but you win the game 98% of the time"-cards, but I feel like it's hard to hit the sweet spot. I am trying to craft draft situations where people are motivated to try and build a deck, that can cast them, but also game...

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    It's the CCC. Power level is relatively low but Shop is definitely within the higher end of my power band. It's a three mana artifact that basically spits out Tome Raiders as a baseline and can be much more with synergies. If that doesn't spund far too slow for your environment, give it a try.

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    Thopter Shop has been really awesome so far. It's great in token decks, incredible in artifact decks and probably fine even just as a win con for controlling decks.

    General Bosses vs leaders: a dichotomy in archetype definers

    I think this is a bad example. Psychomancer is better for the artifact deck in the sense that it also enables other payoffs due to being an artifact, but I would play neither it nor Disciple in any non-artifact deck. For this I'd need a card like Thopter Shop, which can fully work on it's own...

    Can't Fury only be cast at sorcery speed, which would make it not an answer to the kappa?
