    Sets [MB2] Mystery Booster 2 previews

    I'm actually really happy about it. They've reprinted it a bunch of times but this is the first time with that art at all, let alone in foil. Now I don't have to play the Portal version! Actual rules text!

    I'm the one person on the planet who instantly got this joke outside of the dev team and nobody else has posted the phrase "Drake Stone" in this thread (I checked) so I have to explain this! There's a Disney movie from 2010 named The Sorcerer's Apprentice. It has an antagonist named Drake Stone...

    There's a million fancy things in this pack, so I slam Luminarch Aspirant and try to play fun police. I really enjoy doing that now and again and I think Aspirant is one of the best white two drops currently in existence. (and not likely to get topped anytime soon, I hope) ...failing that...

    I'm a clown so I take the card most likely to lead to fun. Therefore: ravnic: Goblin Engineer and hope to wheel that 40k card Train: Demonic Tutor because I'm going to slam something else later that I will want two copies of. This is likely wrong on straight power level relative to Scalding...

    The Bedtime Story saga is actually super interesting, it's a shame that mechanic name seems unlikely to ever be black border: Night of the Flying Merfolk 2U Enchantment - Saga Bedtime Story (Don't put a lore counter on this Saga as it enters. Put a lore counter on it at the beginning of your end...

    For the one or two sickos out there who love the Future Sight frame, or white borders, keep an eye out for the Mystery Booster 2 reveal later today. (I say "sickos" as the proud owner of the url https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/whitebordered mind you) We don't know exactly but we do know...

    Unironic custom formatting suggestion: same card, same effect, but make it look like a "choose one": Pick your Poison go like Whenever: *An opponent casts a spell during your turn *Or Voice of Resurgence dies create... wotc please steal (I know they don't read forums for this very reason)

    General Average Words Per Card

    It's the biggest casualty of the "things that seem simple really aren't"! Necromancy and Dance of the Dead (and Animate Dead) have to use a lot of words to get an intuitive concept across. Word of Command similarly, though that one is also a weird clunky Alpha design so it has some warts on it...

    Tempted by: Kitsa, Otterball Elite Jackdaw Savior Suspect the latter won't happen. My very limited experience with Offspring also makes me wonder if I want Iridescent Vinelasher because it genuinely does seem pretty good, but cheap aggressive black creatures have burned me far too many times...

    Trip report from the first weekend of IRL cube qualifiers: So many people signed up on Saturday that they had to cap the signups on Sunday. So it looks like a rousing success! I don't know how many people it'll act as a "gateway drug" into MTGO cube much less IRL cube for, but hey, more cube is...

    3-0 a prelim, and then 6-0 a 64-person league, and then 3-0 the final draft... ...to get a flight to Vegas and a seat in an 8-person IRL rotisserie keep what you draft powered Cube. Gotta admit, they know how to hook people.

    returning to this, they got me again in the exact same way: Coiling Rebirth 3BB Sorcery Gift a card (You may promise an opponent a gift as you cast this spell. If you do, they draw a card before its other effects.) Return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. Then, if a...

    This is the fourth Standard-legal set in a row with a white three drop creature I've been into! Aven Interrupter being WW did sink it. Delaney, Streetwise Lookout is still cool but not for me, you know? Sanguine Evangelist played well in actual Standard, but... well, it's no Blade Splicer but...

    It's not your best creature, it's the best creature - you can steal one of theirs too! If I have to pay the fifth mana for my Wrath that's the kind of upside I want.

    can't believe it's been 25 years since Psychatog really feels like less than 30 years since Carlos Romao won Worlds 50 years ago with Psychatog oh well I guess that's how memories fade over 100 years, but we'll always have Psychatog

    It is really good with Wildfire. I find myself saying that less and less about cards these days, so it's at least tempting. (give us more stuff good with Jokulhaups at my exact power level, WotC. you can do it.)
