Like I said, I feel this printing error makes this a really questionable include if you have both veteran gamers and casual players, because chances are some people will know the card has errata and play it as such, while others don't and play as if the effect is permanent. This is an awkward...

I still prefer Snapcaster for the more flexible casting cost and the 2/1 body > surveil 2 in my opinion, but this is pretty cool nonetheless! This guildmage I like!

Pyre Hounde also survives Wildfire! (If you've cast another spell before it) :)

Yeah, that was just one angle I wanted to highlight, that it was very inefficient. Of course it's easier to spend mana over the course of 10 turns, but you still need to trigger the card a lot of times to even get to that point!

The problem is that it's probably better to just run an additional draw spell in your 450. I mean, yeah, it's a signal that there's a spells matter theme in your cube, but I don't think it's a very appealing one. (Nice... a screenshot with a mouse pointer :') )

Oh wow, that's pretty sweet! There's secretly a lot of legends in my (and I suspect most players') cube. I've always liked the conditional removals for 2, and this is a great version, actually doubling as unbounded removal if you pay two more!

Well, that then makes this unplayable for my cube, since I need the cards to say what they actually do. Great. I can't use it as is either, since I also have experienced players who will know about the errata and play as if it does last until end of turn.

I RAN THAT CUSTOM! With considerably less cool flavor text :')

Color me impressed! Better than the rare? Edit: Also, apparently not until end of turn? Then it either has to be an error or a fake, right? No way they would print it like that on purpose.

Also, this just in: guildmages tap this time around!

Oh! That's rather neat actually! Great flavor text as well!

Really? Anger

Yeah, but the flavor text on the official entrance vs the back door matches the public leader vs "rebel" leader pattern, all save one are a direct quote from either leader, and the tenth one references Ral Zarek directly.

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...

"severe" You've got a 6/6 hexproof on the board for {2}{g}{g}...

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?
