    You can still cast it for free if you've already drawn the card. As long as you pair it with something with mv >2, it's still worth it if you've already drawn the card. It's pretty legit at a lower-middling power level, I think. Also allows you to cast a completely off color card, for what it's...

    I mean, Future Sight is a card that doesn't affect the board at all, period, and that card can be pretty bomby in the right environment. The fact that Monk Class does affect the board is pretty relevant, and the first ability is very synergistic with the third ability. As long as your cube isn't...

    Alternatively, I can flavor them like this, using unused Chandra art. Incidentally, I dropped the surveil to 1, because it almost felt like a maindeckable card at surveil 2, plus way better than Inkling Summoning. So I toned it down just a bit. Art link left, art link right

    Finding good art for the summoning spells is hard :/ Hmm... I should probably attribute that quote on Wolf Summoning to a male character that could conceivably be the guy in the art... I can't find anything appropriate for Strixhaven flavor that also fits the colors I'm trying to design...

    Sets (VOW) Crimson Vow Testing/Includes Thread

    Arm the Cathars Very cheap and useful Lava Axe variant in a cube that has a heroic theme. By Invitation Only I consciously play 5 mv wrath effects, and this is a very spicy one. It sacrifices, so it gets around indestructible, which a few cards in my cube have/grant. It's also one of very few...

    Sets (VOW) Crimson Vow

    I'm decidedly not in love with this set. The only mechanic I feel is fun enough to include is Blood tokens. Training is underwhelming and clashes with the mentor mechanic I already run. Cleave looks ugly. Daybound/nightbound we've talked about last set. Feedback I've read is that it doesn't play...

    Is this for a magified Pokémon cube? That seems like one hell of a Magic card, but I don't remember how Pokémon resources work and whether giving someone (potentially) +3 energy for two mana is broken or not. As for the order, I don't think it really matters, but Oracle of Mul Daya suggests the...

    I believe we can infer from those official rulings that your reading is not correct, specifically by extrapolating from the final rule: "If Do-It-Yourself Seraph has abilities that contradict one another, the most recently added one wins. For example, if Do-It-Yourself Seraph has the text boxes...

    The German word for wolf is actually Wolf. Ulven is the word for wolf in both Danish and Norwegian. Wald, however, is indeed the German word for forest. The name is basically an American bastardization of two languages :p Kidding, smashing foreign words together is actually a great way to come...

    It occurred to me that there is another problem with this combo. When a card changes zones, it loses track of cards it exiles. For example, if you have a Mirror Golem that exiled an instant die, then Reanimate it and exile a sorcery, it only has protection from sorceries, because it no longer...

    I mean, really good for humans, but does require a high human count to proc consistently on t3.

    Yeah, this is a Recoil style of card. It takes two different abilities that are in pie (in this case both in blue's pie) that (sometimes conditionally) combine into an effect that is not directly in pie. E.g. Recoil says "destroy target permanent" on an {u/b} instant if your opponent is on an...

    Me neither, to my surprise. No worries, I thought, I can surely defend my case by pointing to a spell that shuffles a creature into its owner's library, and then extrapolate from there and Disperse. But nope, there is no mono blue card that straight up shuffles a creature back into its owner's...

    I just think that's wacky Un-rules at work. It also copies the flavor text. We should still assume basic rules like how copying abilities that refer to the card name work, work the same.

    I would assume this works the same as cards like Necrotic Ooze, that is: "If an activated ability of a card in a graveyard references the card it’s printed on by name, treat Necrotic Ooze’s version of that ability as though it referenced Necrotic Ooze by name instead. For example, if Cudgel...
