I surely hope not, but for now, let's say I'm not expecting to get as hooked to this as I was to good old Shandalar. For reference:

It might actually work a bit like old school magic. If there is such a thing as power creep in Magic (it's all relative anyway), it's the average power of creatures, especially higher on the curve. Spells used to rule in the old days, any old creature could finish off the opponent after you...

I've heard that the studio that made this game are known for aggressive use of loot boxes. It might cost a pretty penny to actually get somewhere in this game.

They've really stepped up their game. Another excellent trailer! I feel like watching it again, gruesome as it is. There's that glimmer of hope at the end! :)

I do not have the authority? Actual WTF? I am asking for myself if you could stop taking every word literally and badger people into admitting they are wrong. It's irritating to me. I value your contributions to this forum, but I could do without you nitpicking people's exact wording. Obviously...

Come one Velrun, give him a break. You know it's not infinite tokens, Trainmaster knows it's not infinite tokens. They're using a hyperbole, a shortcut to indicate that as a plus ability you can create a token every turn, and that's perfectly fine. Please don't take every word someone writes...

I like the hybrid, but note that the cheapest cards that currently can make you the monarch have a cmc of 4! Why not make it a 5/2 trample, haste, can't block for {2}{b/r}{b/r}?

Cut Poly, add Living Terrain ;)

I know they didn't say so exactly, but they were obviously referring to the 2/3's being a + ability, and thus technically infinite given infinite turns. That said, Garruk, Primal Hunter exists, which makes 3/3's as the + ability for the same cmc. Also, Huatli, Warrior Poet makes 3/3's at the...

Also, let me add a post by famed wtwlf123 from back in 2012. Basically, as long as you can't go ham on 1 and 3, 2 is your main goal of 'abusing' Balance, and that's almost a fair reset button (if we ignore the low mana cost). If you have faith in your format's ability to handle the...

To be fair, I must say that, despite my misgivings, I am tempted by Balance to the point where I bought a copy. I've stopped shy of putting it in my cube every time I considered the card though. White has such a low number of clear p1p1s, that it's hard to not be tempted by Balance.

Because Armageddon and Persecute are inherently less fun than Wrath of God. After a Wrath of God, you still get to play Magic. Losing your lands or cards in hand is way more devastating in this aspect. Of course you won't typically lose that many lands to Balance, though I do run Borderposts in...

I do. It's about damn time! It makes for a much cleaner viewing experience, and it completely removes the biggest blight on competitive Magic: cheating. I think paper tournaments still, by necessity need to feed into the top tournaments, and Magic Fests are, on the whole, a good thing, I feel...

It's no 3/3, looking at you Garruk!

According to magiclibrarities, there are 8 copies in existence of Kharis & the Beholder, so good luck obtaining one!

Pretty neat designs, if a bit powerful.

That part of the card is exactly the same as Squee though ;) I do agree provoke is a sweet keyword. They should return it sometime!

Looks like a D&D cross-over.

Oh yeah, it totally does. I was aiming for a recurring Lava Spike though, even if I'm not sure that 3 is the right number, 2 might be enough. The tension here is that you have to choose whether Skree is on chump block duty, sacrifice fodder, discard fodder, or said recurring Lava Spike...

Meaning you like the effect, but not the Hearthstone-y flavor of the card, or meaning you don't like it for MtG because you can't directly attack creatures, unlike in Hearthstone?
