So the "Mystery Booster" has official WotC-released fake playtest cards in it, along with a bunch of random reprints or whatever. Who cares. The point I'm making is that these are technically real actual cards that actual Wizards released: There are others but I skipped to the ones that I at...

Random fact: on the "Wizards plays Magic" Twitch stream yesterday, Melissa DeTora said that Bonecrusher Giant originally had the adventure half cost R and not 1R. Just straight up Shock++.

When are we going to get the cycle where the red one is neither the best nor the worst of the nonbasics? (this being one of the best, imo)

Wish it went the other direction and untapped with 3 or less. Then it's like Prismatic Vista, but better, but worse, as opposed to feeling more like Evolving Wilds, but better in mostly-inconsequential ways.

Every set it's like "surely this green two drop will be great for green aggro, despite it costing GG", I think this time I might actually have learned my lesson and I won't try it.

Farhaven Elf does enough things differently (land etbt but body only costs 3 to reuse with bounce) that I'd say test both, but I'm cautiously on board with the Giant. Big dumb idiot is a nice upgrade to Untamed Wilds.

This thread taught me to put Pit Fight in my cube, thanks CML.

it's me I'm the guy who misread this as "cast a Human spell" and got real excited, but this might be for someone else!

Sorry for the lousy Arena screenshot, but this new friend has really been impressing me in Brawl, more than I expected - the land comes in untapped, and then you get the large idiot later. Might be worth considering.

It is, but it also triggers on token creatures dying. And it'd actually be more awkward to say "a token creature dies or", right?

I don't know, "legendary matters" is a theme that they keep coming back to, one of these days Abzan Legendary could have enough support to be a real deck in a lower powered cube. In Standard right now, there's Kethis, Mox Amber, Blackblade Reforged, the legendary sorceries, Arvad the Cursed...

...I hadn't realized that either. FedEx Arrowing hard here.

I'm pretty sure this doesn't do anything, but I can't rule out it going infinite in some way I don't recall off the top of my head between the counters and the phyrexian mana and the lifelink.

I'm sure this does something for someone somewhere. It's not me, especially not at a red 3 without tribal types and double colored mana, which is super crowded. But for someone, hey, here ya go.

Ajani, the Greathearted wasn't mentioned yet. Or could just go with Ajani Goldmane for both color-intensive and power-level reasons.

Exactly, it's just so miserable to attack into that I would have liked a smaller backside (or just, you know, not giving it lifelink, slap reach on it if you need or something)

There's also this new three-color friend who has, honestly, a point or two too much toughness for me:

You want to get cards into your graveyard? Are you also in the market for an enormous dinosaur, like really just gigantic?

You're already running God-Pharaoh's Gift, have you thought about Gate to the Afterlife? It's not exactly what you're asking for, but...
