That's a massive bloody baneslayer o_O

I think you may have misunderstood what I was trying to communicate here. I was not trying to insinuate that high power formats lacked flexibility completely several years ago. Rather, I was just trying to make the point that new cards being printed has allowed for more strategies to become...

Yeah, it started around that time period. The evolution into low-power with things such as the Penny-Pincher cube didn't truly take over the site until 2016-17, when WOTC had finally gained a grasp on modern limited set design during a streak of several powered-down standard sets. For example...

"Quidditch" is an odd way to spell "Football."

In Ikoria, they made colorless creatures as a means to flavor cards which would otherwise be artifact creatures as monsters and their spawn. In this set, they are using colorless spells for two reasons. First, they needed a way to increase the number of instant and sorcery spells available to...

This is another good lesson to learn. While it isn't good in every game, the fact that it doesn't take a deck slot means that it can be tutored for times when it draws two or even three times while not risking being drawn in games where it would otherwise do nothing. For those keeping track...

God I love Wayne Reynolds' art. Explore the Vastlands is such a cool looking painting.

The other 4cmc "Exile a creature or walker with upside" spells are playable in environments with a few walkers. Being able to kill a walker at a Doom Blade's mana cost seems really good, especially if it's something that needs to leave the board ASAP. I think this card is like Force of...

These definitely seem good enough for unpowered cubes. The bat is only playable if there is a black aggro deck in the format. Good White aggro 1-drops. I love the dog, and it actually works with Blink decks.

This card actually seems pretty good! This is the sort of card we need for learn to work in cube. This card is like a Luminarch Aspirant that can tutor out a utility card when it comes into play.

Here's the White Draw Three effect.

Another couple of lesson cards. I could easily see playing these if there are enough good Learn cards in the set. Neat blink-based wrath protection spell. This is probably playable somewhere.

Why not just call these Campuses?

I used to. The primary focus was on untapping enchanted lands as a means to generate huge amounts of mana. The deck worked relatively well and my ramp section still contains lots of cards from when I supported this archetype.

I guess Dragon Bones are Acidic...

They used to start spoilers on Monday (or the Weekend of a gaming convention) until they started doing the weekly livestreams on Thursday about a year ago.
