Yeah, I cut Pyrogoyf for power reasons (because I don't really want a Flametongue Kavu effect, especially not one that's just way better in every way)... but actual FTK is kind of nostalgic. That's good. I've never seen Agate Instigator in my life and I'm at least a little tempted, honestly. A...

Looking for: Mono-Red four-drops. Here's the cube list for reference. I'd like: -strong preference for one pip, the Hellriders and Hero of Oxid Ridges of the world need not apply (why does Brutal Hordechief not have a red cousin?! it's been a decade!) -ideally it'd be good enough in aggro and...

Rosie Cotton of South Lane's the only one I'm actually playing myself - she's really good, but she's more for Staff of the Storyteller decks rather than Yotian Dissident ones for me. (Planning to benefit from other creature tokens rather than other cards wanting her Food.)

How do you feel about three-color gold cards? Asking for my boy: Rocco, Street Chef Always makes me think of his partner in crime: Rosie Cotton of South Lane (also Pia Nalaar, Consul of Revival but you did say gw in particular) So, let's see, Blade Splicer wasn't pictured, there's Farmer...

...Well, yes, I did totally whiff on all five Overlords, Fear of Missing Out, Unholy Annex, Enduring Curiosity, Abhorrent Oculus, and Sheltered by Ghosts until I played them all in Standard. I was right! 100% hit rate! (At being wrong, that is. Do the opposite of me and you've got 100% ez) Not...

...yeah, between "PT's dead" and "pandemic" and "Arena" that did happen too.

There's two effects: 1) random commander stuff is expensive forever (hi, Sheoldred, the Apocalypse / The Great Henge / etc) and 2) the existence of very fancy very rare treatments that require opening lots of product means a "normal" version of almost everything else is dirt cheap. 2 is great...

I don't know of anyone else who still does it, but SCG still has Ship+Sell where you just put all your unsorted stuff in a box, send it to them, and get paid. Obviously the downside there is it's SCG, so lower buylist + higher sell price if they're still the way they used to be back when they...

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!)
