Witness Protection is my favorite because the name "Legitimate Businessperson" is perfect. It's like how nearly every time I activate Oko, Thief of Crowns I chuckle at the resulting mental image Dragons' Rage Elk, Bill the Elk, Primeval Elk, etc

Yeah, it was supposed to be a nerf with specifically Agatha's Soul Cauldron, so that you couldn't go big enough in one turn with a bunch of creatures you just drew. ...ignore Draconautics Engineer already being in the deck (to be fair, it doesn't give itself haste)

Kind of wild how Volcanic Geyser went from insane to just like, now we pass it all the time (Choco-Comet having the RR 2/2 buyout option made it a lot stronger, that's for sure, instant speed was never a super attractive thing there) over the years.

9th was absolutely fire, between Emma Goldman on Treasure Trove and Mother Jones on Archivist and Romeo and Juliet on Dark Banishing and peak flavor text imo, I agree with your opinion

...they still haven't figured out a way to get "the good foiling treatment" used on every set? What are WotC and/or Carta Mundi constrained by at this point?!

I grew up in the same city as the author lived in and missed a chance to get my books signed by him back in high school (like, literally at a Barnes & Noble within walking distance of my school!) Not a lifelong regret, but simultaneously I remember it enough to post it now, decades later...

also you can put it on A-Vivi Ornitier and go infinite this is only appealing in the context of "an online cube that already has Vivi in it" but...

I love Vapor Snag (you should play that over Unsummon 100% in the dark for sure) but it still isn't really... "good enough" to tempt people into playing it. I'm high-power enough that modal stuff is where it's at for me. Never cutting Brazen Borrower or Sink into Stupor, plus some variety of...

Someday it will be the hawk writing the messages

if you're going in on counters and earthbending, it's time... he's here... Kudo, King Among Bears

Shared Roots I was as shocked as you are.

complaining to someone else suggested some stuff, "is:" and "in:" are different. you can do "in:rare is:common" (this still runs headlong into the promo versions all being rare, but the rest works though!)

counterpoint: this is absolutely hilarious (which proves the argument that, when you get right down to it, it's about vibes) every time a new downshift comes out I ping my friend who has a pauper cube and I'm just like "ARE YOU GONNA PUT Scion of the Wild IN YOUR CUBE?!?!?!" (that one went rare...

Gravecrawler is the perfect storm imo: -deck's more consistent with multiples of this effect ("easily recurred 1 drop" goes a long way to set up Goblin Bombardment or Blood Artist or whatever) -there's not any other card that's nearly as good on rate (sorry Cult Conscript, and Dread Wanderer is...

okay it's definitely time to end this conversation this is absurd

Brazen Borrower is for sure on my never-cut-this list (power level reasons acceptable to cut it obviously) along with Bonecrusher Giant, that's wild to me. Like, sure, it's two colored pips, but the Adventure isn't!

This set's full of bangers. Assuming I'm going to keep having UB sets in my cube: Yes: Callous Inspector Mai, Scornful Striker Obsessive Pursuit Raven Eagle Wan Shi Tong, Librarian Zhao, the Moon Slayer Maybe: Aang's Iceberg Abandoned Air Temple Agna Qel'a Ba Sing Se Benevolent River Spirit...

Of course! I should have been searching for the Magic Cards that weren't "Card"!

oh my god that guy was in every damn set, he was Loot before Loot, in that I can't even actively dislike him for a reason, I just have zero attachment to him and he keeps showing up and won't go away Poochy-style I'd instinctively use "legal:vintage" to exclude art cards, but you get 35 that...

come for the Mulldrifter, but stay for the Yore-Tiller Nephilim + Primoc Escapee chaos draft tech
