Oh for sure. Every adventure except for maybe Garenbrig Carver is playable in some cube format- which is not true for very many mechanics. Wizards did an amazing job balancing these. Adventure may very well be the first dudless mechanic in a very, very long time.

They're pretty obvious references to Shrek... "Ogre Knights" and Smash Mouth are not common fairy tale tropes. If you go onto the MTGS Eldraine trivia page, they even have All That Glitters listed as a Smash Mouth reference. They also made a Shrek Reference in the twitter reveal for the...

A reference to the song "All Star" at the beginning of the film. It features the verse: "And all that glitters is gold. Only shooting stars break the mold." A reference to the scene at the beginning of the first Shrek movie where Shrek bursts through a door. This specific Ogre even has little...

I am not surprised at all that Inquisitive Puppet has been underwhelming for you. It looked super janky to me. I'm glad Embercleave has been putting up results- that card is very interesting to me. What did you take out for Grumgully? I'm kind of considering him in place of Rhythm of the...

Usually I would agree with the general point of your statement, except for the fact that there are at least 3 references to Shrek in this set. One of the cards is a Smash Mouth reference as well! It just kind of sucks when your favorite trope from a "top-down x" world gets snubbed. To me, this...

Yeah but the Black Knight is a fairly common Arthurian Legends trope. Maybe the card is trying to parody Monty Python to some degree, but it's not immediately evident. The witches from Macbeth and Smash Mouth both got cards in this set. Why couldn't my Killer Bunny Boi have gotten a card as well?

What type of place do you work at where Scryfall would need to be banned??

I'm kinda pissed Elsa got a card but the Killer Rabbit got snubbed. You're seriously telling me that Frozen fits the theme of Eldraine better than Monty Python and the Holy Grail??

I think Improbable Alliance and Faerie Vandal are definitely worth playing even if you don't expand the theme beyond them. Modern Horizons also had a bunch of card-draw matters stuff in U/R: Fists of Flame Thundering Djin Eyekite I don't think this archetype has very deep Payoffs, but it's...

Empyrean Eagle is going to be over-powered as a 2-drop.

This is a testing/includes thread. Post pictures or a text list using /c with what cards you plan to include and what cards you plan to test. For me, I'm only going to include a few cards from this set to start with. It was pretty decent over all, but there just weren't a ton of cards that...

Don't you talk to me or my son ever again.

The Storm Crow power creep is real... I thought those were rose petals... EWWWWWWWW. Ok, ok fine Ugin Art Tormenting Voice, I'll replace you.

This art is kinda weird... what's going on in this picture??!! If by "redefine" you simply mean "change what qualifies as being legendary," then sure. If you mean "change the legendary rules again," then no. The current Legend Rule works well as it is and I don't think it's worth changing a...

I am very surprised no one has mentioned Improbable Alliance: This reminds me of Bitterblossom. Sure, it doesn't always make a faerie on every upkeep, but it can be combined with looters to great effect. You can also get a Faerie on your opponent's turn- the card doesn't specify that the second...

Because in the Ixalan case wizards could push the cards more if they were legends. Since they technically occupy a spell slot instead of a land slot, the Ixalan flip lands wouldn't have been putting stress on the mana base as legends. Drawing a second Search for Azcanta doesn't stop you from...

I haven't seen bessie here mentioned at all. I feel like she's a bit too cute to try, but I was curious about your opinions on her...

Yes, I will be blocking that Goblin Chainwhirler, no, you can't do anything about it. Pretty much the only thing I don't like about this guy is the actual wishboarding mechanic. If I were to run this, it would be for discarding decks to gain some more legs, not to give control decks access to...

I want to curve this into Drake Haven into activating this thing's ability into making 2 drakes. The ability to grab sideboard tech is just gravy!

I'm on Safari and I've never had any issues with it. That's relatively disappointing.
