I added it to my cube with great hesitation, because I wanted playable convoke spells in GW, and instead of it being overwhelming, to my relief it was actually just fine. Interesting, but not really overwhelming at all.

Ember Spray 1R Sorcery Ember Spray deals 1 damage to each opponent and each creature and planeswalker they control. // Amber's Prey 1U Instant Tap target artifact, creature, or land. That permanent doesn’t untap during its controller’s next untap step.

Varnish W Instant Change the target of target spell or ability that targets an artifact you control. // Far Niche 2W Instant Exile target creature. Return it to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step. If you do, draw a card.

I personally run the Mystic, which I think is much more interesting to build your deck around.

I'm curious how the WoW tcg rules would work out in MtG. Obviously they would have to be slightly tweaked, but the idea is that you can play any card in your deck as a land card. You can still run actual land cards, like duals, for example, and those will play as normal. I'm thinking a rule that...

I'ld suggest ignoring the rarity and just go with something that fits the environment well, rarity be damned. It also isn't the end of the world if the color counts aren't exactly equal, and you could easily put in another green rare. You could even swap out a green common or uncommon for a...

You advocate betrayal as a normal and logical part of the game and you expect me to hold no grudges if another player doesn't keep to their end of the bargain? It seems we approach this game from very, very different points of view, and judging by your strong choice of words and mine, I don't...

Looks legit, except obviously Liliana gets the final blow, releasing her from "a" master at last (only for the Raven Man to become the next major villain). Alternatively, Gideon gets the final blow. Sarkhan killing a dragon, and one that made him go insane for an extended spell no less, is...

I see Kitsune Mystic is back in again, but with only five auras that the Mystic survives at most in any two-color combination (WU, WB, and WG), it still feels undersupported. If you really want to support the Mystic (and Tallowisp), in white you could add Heart of Light, which works very well in...

Well, agree to disagree then. I very strongly dislike players who choose to renege on a mutual agreement like that. Deal's a deal. You may view my suggested behavior as a threat/promise to gain an in-game advantage, but a) this is not about gaining an in-game advantage, and b) if people don't...

That is just premium asshole behaviour. If you make a promise, you keep it, even if it turns out the promise was disadvantageous for you. That's the price you play for playing politics, sometimes it blows up in your face. I would probably go after him every game after that, just to drive the...

Oho, this one's quite brilliant :D (link)

Sweet lord, that was an awesome teaser trailer! The smoke forming the horns of Bolas at the end, niiiiiiiice :) I also think it's heavily implied Bolas's plan will fail, assuming he's the top candle, and not, in fact, the last candle burning. Hyped!

Oh yeah, for sure, I counted those as the same fumble, should have been clearer about that :) But yeah, no reason to be ashamed there, it is hard to play a game that requires a decent amount of brainpower and entertain an audience at the same time. Kudos to those who do that successfully!

That was the only real fumble I spotted though, he made some really good calls later in the video, and playing while streaming is hard regardless. I know our own Aoret brought that up once, when he started streaming. I think PewDiePie did a good job playing the deck all in all. Doesn't mean I...

I feel the commander product line also added a lot of very cool cards to the format, and I rather WotC be pushing the envelope and sometimes missing the mark than them not trying out anything new at all. Problematic cards can be dealt with through the banlist, mutual agreement with your...

See, I'm a born optimist, so while I could think of some GRBS examples (and indeed, there is one particular example I do like to bring up every now and then, but it's more about how hypocritical some players can get in a multiplayer game), I prefer to remember the good games (of which there have...

Commander can be a can full of worms in the wrong playgroup, and the best way to play Magic in the right one. Of all the "mainstream" types of Magic I've tried, it probably has the widest... "fun band"*. That said, when it's good, it's really good :) *Caveat: I've seen some competitive...

That was almost a sympathetic post Haymaker, until the unnecessary dig at Commander. Let players play the format they love, don't hate on each other! I happen to like playing Commander, and I have a cool playgroup to play it with. Why should I feel guilty for liking Commander, why should I feel...
