    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I don’t know about the cost, but unlike you I do like the Battle Moat! It’s basically a temporary shield/fog effect, and unlike Moat it doesn’t prevent your creatures from attacking (which is the part that feels rough), it just dictates that they temporarily can’t go face! That said, personally...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Putting this idea for a tricolor in my cube here before I forget: Ash Plains Land - Plains ({T}: Add {W}.) {W}, {T}: Add {B}{R}. Fetchable triland that (in my cube) can only be fetched with on color fetches (that is. fetches that are in this color wedge).

    I think these are the cards that hold some promise (even if only a little) from the full spoiler dump. Wary Thespian as well, but that was already mentioned. If you want to run Incubator tokens there's a few more, but I left those out here. Realmbreaker's Grasp is the most exciting to me...

    General Fight Club

    I have played and cut Dismissive Pyromancer, as it plays a lot slower than it looks. The activation cost on both abilities is what kills it, in my experience. Nowadays I run Heartfire Immolator in that slot, which does nothing for card filtering, but is a lot more reasonable about the shooting...

    This one makes X 1/1’s and it makes X flyers, but it does not make X 1/1 flyers :)

    Oops, yeah, Walking Ballista is definitely a good target as well :)

    Currently the most exciting targets to fetch (in Mardu, because black and red are white’s allied colors in my cube) at that stage in the game are probably: Faerie Guidemother Giver of Runes Kytheon, Hero of Akros Mikaeus, the Lunarch Thraben Inspector Topplegeist Guul Draz Assassin Dragon’s...

    The "prowess" triggers on any spell though! Casting a Llanowar Elves makes this just as indestructible as Ranpant Growth does! ;)

    Yo, don't diss my homie learn! There's nothing inherently mediocre about it, it's just that they were very conservative with the power level of these cards. It also reads weaker than it actually is. I love that you have the smoothing loot mechanic as a backup option if you don't want to get a...

    Ignoring land tutors and planeswalker ultimates, I only run three. Ranger of Eos Trinket Mage Zur the Enchanter Ranger is just a way to give white some card advantage, and the other two can find pivotal pieces for certain archetypes.

    Just have lower standards :p Really though, I just want to use this opportunity to recommend a bunch of fantasy and fantasy-adjacent stuff that entertained me. I thoroughly enjoyed the first Dune book, which is science fiction of sorts, but also with a lot of fantasy mixed in. Character...

    I <3 this, and considering that I'm already running Jolrael, Mwonvuli Recluse and Faerie Vandal, and this makes me want to go a little deeper into this theme in {b}{g}{u} with cards like Minn, Wily Illusionist, Thopter Mechanic, Gurgling Anointer and/or Gixian Puppeteer, and include slightly...

    I think they (incorrectly) expected Atraxa to see play in Standard mostly, and tribal is a really old card type that is (probably) never going to be relevant in Standard anymore. Including it in the reminder text would probably confuse newer players more than leaving it off confuses enfranchised...

    Tribal is still a card type, as confirmed by MaRo here. It is still a 9 on the storm scale so don't expect to ever see it again, except in very special circumstances :)

    I’ve been using customs that show both sides of a DFC in a kind of split card way, and have the actual DFC’s in the land station so people can use those while the DFC is on the battlefield. Works pretty well! I have been tempted to cut DFC’s in the past, but Jace, Vryn’s Prodigy and Legion’s...

    The WPN art shows Sarkhan, Nissa, Nahiri, and Karn in the background. We know Karn, at least, is desparked, ans Nahiri is obviously back to her old self somehow?

    I won't fault anyone for wanting to include it, but 3/3 is significantly different from 3/2 or 2/3, as it either trades with less removal spells and creatures in combat, or it applies a lot less pressure. {2}{w} is significantly (though less significantly) different from {1}{w}{w} as well...
