In my cube I've found Herald to be overwhelming beatstick and Master to be a gleeful build-around.

Pfff... Who are you calling lame! :P

I was severely disappointed about the lack of a proper link!

I'm not personally bothered by seeing spoilers outside, but I can see why others would, and I have no problems keeping spoilers to the appropriate thread for those who like their prerelease to be a surprise! Edit: To clarify, that's neither a yay, nor a nay. I don't have any personal strong...

Oh no! This thread uses square brackets, and the testing includes thread uses round brackets! :eek: I also like this set quite a bit, but it will take some figuring out what I want to include. It's not like I am in any rush, seeing as I'm not organizing any drafts at the moment...

The main problem with the card is that it "does" nothing. That is, you invest 3 mana (and probably all or a good portion of your resources in a turn) to put an artifact on the battlefield that can make Gray Ogres. It's great at upgrading land in the late game, but most of the time you will be...

In my experience it's completely fine. The lack of vigilance makes it less obnoxious, and it's a lot easier to remove than some of the other blue finishers available (e.g. Frost Titan, God-Eternal Kefnet, Deadeye Navigator).

I completely agree. I preordered two nonfoil of each, but only because I'm not investing in these things. I could have bought 10, because these will easily be more expensive than the roughly €3 they are now. €5 for the foils is a pittance, I expect these to see modern play even. I believe...

I... I spent €70, and I thought that was a lot...

I've cooled on one mana cantrips as well, and switched to two mana cantrips and one mana cyclers instead.

https://blog.cardkingdom.com/playing-tap-lands-in-aggro-decks/ Of course there's a limit to how many taplands you can reasonably run, which is why I'm a big proponent of aggro-friendly duals. If you run fastlands and shocks, you have some room for these fantastic mdfc's. If your environment...

You know what, I've been thinking it over, and I think these creature lands are even better than I'm giving them credit for. The thing is, you run these instead of a basic land. So in exchange for running one more tapped mana source, you get potentially an extra spell. Would you replace one of...

I think the black rogue is very environment dependent. A 2/3 menace for 2B or a land is already a reasonable offer, but if you can reliably trigger the condition, you're looking at a 5/3 menace for 2B, that's brutal! So, in environments that have a heavy graveyard or mill component, I think the...

I think you're underestimating how good some of the creatures are. Blue-based control decks want to hit a land drop every turn, and that shitty blue pseudo-flyer is a land that turns into a beatstick in the late game. That's exactly what that deck is interested in!

That was my first impression, but Niblis doesn't draw you cards!

I'm intrigued by all of these. I have no idea if I will actually run all of these, but there's definitely more than 0 blue cards I'm interested in :)

I don't think Velrun is saying blue is a bad support color for landfall strategies, but it's a fact that blue has the fewest landfall cards of all colors, together with black, and it's not close with either red or green. Black and blue have 13, white 15, red 21, and green 24! And that's not...

You got a great {g} landfall creature though! That Mammoth is huge!

Wow, a lot of babies (two is a lot, right?)! Congrats to both of you as well! Hope your wife and daughter are doing better now that it's been a few months!
