    General Fight Club

    Actually, this very helpful conversation makes me want to try Lagomos. Unlike Juri, he provides (and endless stream of) on part of the A+B combination a sac deck needs to work. Also triggers all the support cards with death triggers like Zulaport Cutthroat etc. Yes he's a bit wordy and...

    But isn't Mayhem Devil the same kind of supporting payoff like Juri? Just stronger? And I feel like the Devil would be too sick triggering of boh players Prismatic Vistas. Slaughter-Priest on the other hand has proven a little too clunky when tested.

    Finally a card that really speaks to me. Grind forever! With enough treasure/clue/food production, I could even see this at slightly higher power levels than where I'm at. While I would love to loop this with Marionette Master and a nice sac outlet, I don't think it will make in. I assume Quest...

    Lagomos, Hand of Hatred Juri, Master of the Revue I thought I would prefer Lagomos as an enabler over Juri as a payoff for sacrificing. But then I remembered I'm running 18 Prismatic Vistas ...

    Because it is an open ended multi-synergy card in a decent value package that impulse draws cards, while also being wordy and introducing unique counters and tokens?

    Finally we get some really cool designs in. This one is great, because it's, almost like Gleeful Demolition, a modal card without a list. It can safe your important creature for just one mana, win a combat in the midgame or be a finishing move in the late game. Sweet.

    Huh, that's a really cool design. It's basically a split card between Smelt and Kuldrotha Rebirth. Either artifact removal or a synergy piece for yours.

    General How much do you love Magic right now

    I don't think you need to do stuff like this. All I do is allow a friendly mulligan house rule (7/7/6/6... instead of 7/6/5...). But much more important is a relatively low mana curve combined with stuff like: Priest of Ancient Lore Consider Night's Whisper Reckless Impulse Prismatic Vista But...

    Good sir, I will inform you that I am indeed running infamous stadard all-stars like Wild Mongrel or Psychatog!

    That's why my golden formula is good card draw and smoothing with humble, old school creature stats. So games don't turn into decision low non-games but you don't get punished for stumbling as hard either!

    So far, this is the card that interests me the most. That being said, I really have trouble evaluating it, which is why I wanted to bring it up again for discussion. I usually dislike snowbally threats, but this is kinda slow and maybe predictable enough that I'm okay with it. I like how well...

    It is. But like most of what we've seen so far, it seems tricky to utilize for cube. Which cube deck on which power level wants to, for example, spend three mana and 10 lifepoints for a treasure and a Divination? I really want to see more "For Mirrdoin!" cards. Seems like a better version of...

    Yeah, potentially. But you also mentioned Saga's, which aren't a new card type, but an enchantment subtype. So ... why isn't 'Battle' an enchantment too? The reason for it would at least not seem obvious to me. New card types carry a lot of problematic stuff with them. Like, what colors can...

    It seems to be the case, actually. Looking it up on scryfall, Tarfire is a "Instantáneo tribal" in spanish. So there is a very real chance, that "battle" is a new spell type. But how could it possibly work?

    I really hope so and halfway expect it to happen. Hopefully they also return the stunning showcase frames. Those were the first and they haven't been matched so far.

    Pretty enamored And not that far from peak. Limited has been great last year, three of the four premier sets have been super fun. We've been getting cool stuff like retro frames and flashback sets for Kamigawa or Dominaria. There are also quite a few products to ignore, but why would I care...
