Surging Dementia was the real culprit. It looks so innocuous, until you have to discard your whole hand on turn two…

This is actually a neat way of retaining that strategic layer, while still allowing for duplicates :)

By realizing your goal is to create a fun and engaging draft format that can be drafted again and again. 100 Ornithopters might get you there, but 47 Lightning Bolts is just going to get people to draft the 12 Mountains + 28 Lightning Bolts Burn You Alive deck. Not all that rewarding. So aim for...

It’s really the ripple cards at common that ruined the draft experience, iirc.

Just to remind people, void doesn’t trigger on lands leaving the battlefield. So Insatiable Skittermaw only gets the +1/+1 counter when a nonland permanent has left the battlefield. No fetch shenanigans for us cube aficionados, unfortunately!

Oh yeah, they're hoping Marvel = ca$h in the bank! And they're probably right, to an extent. I can see this selling really well, and I don't know how to feel about that. I mean, Magic doing well means they will keep printing one of my main hobbies, but on the other hand, half of what they are...

Web-slinging is an alternate cost, it still abides by all the timing restrictions of the card it is on. You could conceivably have web-slinging on an instant, or a creature with flash, and then you’ld be able to web-sling at instant speed, but on everything else it doesn’t give you the ability...

I feel you! Superhero stuff really isn’t my cup of tea either. I think I can actually count the number of Marvelverse movies I watched on no hands, though I do still want to watch those two movies with the Raccoon, because they look like they have humor and I’m an eighties kid ;) That said, I...

https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/a-statement-on-the-rules-text-of-diplomatic-relations Oh look, they emergency errata’d the card!

Monstrous Emergence is fine, but not as reliable, and sorcery speed. Something like Elves (in Peasant) could use it if the opponent has must remove threats (Reanimator comes to mind, even if that isn’t exactly a tier one deck).

I’m curious if it will enable new decks to enter the meta because it’s literally the first option of its kind. There is Utopia Vow, but that’s clunky and quite bad.

It’s definitely a huge add for Pauper and Peasant if they don’t errata it.

Playing with emotions is very much in red’s part of the flavor pie though. And a creature fighting itself (“Stop! Hitting! Yourself!”) is super red.

What a sweet design! :D

That’s hilarious, and I already thought the card was bad…

This is... a pretty bad card. Like, the effect is cool, but 7 mana is so much. You're nearly at Zacama mana there!

It’s not trivial to trigger void though, especially not considering Hymn of the Faller is a sorcery.

I mean, it’s not that much better than Night’s Whisper if you can trigger the void.

Flightless angels… This is only the third one in existence. We can forgive Sustaining Spirit since it was originally printed as a Guardian, but hey, art direction wasn’t as good back then. Weeping Angel is a mess, and I have actually flashed it in myself to try and block a flyer, only to find...

So… about this full post with more information? <3
