    General [GRN] Guilds of Ravnica

    Not sure how much I like this one, but Gerrard's Mom pointed out something really cool on the mtgs forums: "I'm just realizing that the hybrid on each of these shows the shadow/rebel faction leader while the gold side shows the current public leader, similar to the two guildgate arts. Really...

    Whatever are you talking about? I was replying to Dom's judgment of how severe that first drawback is, as I think it isn't much of a drawback when you compare it to the stats to cost ratio. Who cares that your removal costs {2} more when you are smacking your opponent for 6 on turn 4 (since...

    Dear lord, why? It's not even legendary? How is that third ability a serious enough drawback that you can make it a 6/6 for four mana?! I know which green four drop I like better...

    Shit, I need a heavy dose of multiposting here! That's a very nice artifact hate bear! Relevant creature types, relevant abilities. Sweet! Also, heck yes! Instant too! And... Isperia? Before she got killed? Note the story spotlight watermark!

    More intriguing flavor text. Actually, all of them have pretty intriguing flavor text: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-preview/opening-guildgates-2018-09-11

    So... Who was asking for a red +1/+1 counters matter the other day?

    I would think the Simic are in league with Bolas, because they like manipulating things as well, and he lets them :) Also, you would immediately assume Dimir is under Bolas's sway, since either's schtick is secrecy and conspiracy, plus Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas is fricking {u/b}! But then...

    Split cards are a-w-e-s-o-m-e! I don't care that they're ugly if they are a blast to play with! Now show me the ones I can actually run in my cube! There's nothing "almost" cruel about that mana cost o_O Also... (holy shit that flavor)

    Ajani's Pridemate has the highest floor, which means it's much more playable if you don't pick up a large pile of life gain effects.

    Yay! I added the instruction to the card tag how to topic in case someone else encounters this problem.

    The card tag doesn't like curly quotes, better known as smart quotes. Apple turns on smart quotes by default, but if you find that an annoying feature in an online world, there is a way to turn it off and make the card tags for the Squee's Toys and Hanna, Ship's Navigators of the world work...

    General Do finishers have to be so boring?

    I remember cutting Martial Coup for being just a little bit too overwhelming to play against. I don't think a wrath effect should double as a hard to remove threat at the same time.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    When I discussed putting in monarch cards all my players who had experience them were like: "God! No! Why would you do that?! These are so frustrating to play against!" So... I don't have any experience with these. I did put them into one of my commander decks, since I already bought them...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Ok, so it's a cheaper Shunt, basically, that works on all spells that were already cast. Good (read: killing) against storm spells I guess. That last rider feels a bit redundant though. How often is an opponent going to cast two spells that both target in a single turn anyway? Is that worth the...

    Well, you are reevaluating the top of your library ;) But yeah, I get what you mean. I would be wary with replacing scry with surveil though, that makes the card better by a considerable amount, especially at 3 cards.
