    I don’t think that is true. I think there is a logic behind it and you might not agree with that logic. Here is what they wrote when they announced the Emrakul ban “BANNED Emrakul, the Aeons Torn This is one on which we listened heavily to what the community was saying, and nearly without...

    Thanks :) Could easily be “Exile an instant or sorcery card with mana value 3 or greater from your hand face down. It costs {2} less to cast.” With perpetual it gains an additional (rare) upside in future uses it will be cheaper to cast though.

    Do we know the card pool of the ‘spellbook’ cards? I think those sound very, very interesting!

    That is an argument but imagine if you didn’t remove it from your deck. In a future game, would you choose not to cast it if you had in your hand and could cast it? That’s the reason why it’s banned. Not to stop a fun, low-powered, shenanigan combo at 20+ mana but to stop it ending games...

    I know Rusje answered above me, but I believe I made a mistake. I think I have had a memory in my head for over 20 years that was wrong the entire time. I thought Memory Jar was banned before it was legal in Standard. But I don’t anymore think this was ever true. Urza’s Legacy was released in...

    It’s funny because I was playing competitive Standard when those two blocks were live. The deck Raffinity was the strongest aggro, control and combo deck in the history of the game. All in one deck. It even beat decks that were constructed as counter-decks with the sole purpose of beating...

    I wish Amateur Auteur was playable. If it could kill off both artifacts and enchantments or something. I would run one of each https://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=released&q=oracleid%3A38e36eb0-f3a9-42d7-9223-417d23e434fa+include%3Aextras&unique=prints

    I mean..sure.. When I played Hearthstone, I saw at least 50 cards that were also directly stolen from Magic. Or flavor texts or just mechanics. I personally don’t mind it going both ways. As long as they only steal the good stuff.

    They are both at the highest power level in my cube. I put them in the same top 25 %. Two weeks ago I played against a Loxodon Warhammer. I dealt about 60 damage to the opponent before I lost. He had 18 life total left when I hit 0. The game was decent but I certainly learned the hard way how...

    Thumbs up for using the name ‘Patient Zero’ on this card. Good choice! I think I want to proxy Toralf’s Disciple

    General Alchemy

    Wizards announced a new format today. It is digital only (Arena only) and it is called Alchemy. Alchemy is a format that will evolve a bit faster than Standard but start out almost like Standard. It will use Standard legal cards + a few extra. The extra cards are tweaked versions of regular...

    But then there would be no need to lose?

    General Fight Club

    I can relate I like both cards though, just Zone more than Beyond. Awakening Zone can help cast the very expensive cards. From Beyond can do this too but it also helps the player get the expensive card, which is very, very nice. However I would never ever run From Beyond if the sacrifice text...

    Two things 1 - I don't think you technically could do it. Maybe theoretically. 2 - I appreciate the joke, thanks :D

    And again, how do you technically do that?

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    How would one do that technically? Some kind of Mindslaver (+ other cards I can’t really think of right now) shenanigan?

    Urza, Academy Headmaster It was never strong enough to warrent a 5-color card in any of my cubes. I wish it would have a smaller pool with stronger planeswalker abilities. However I just learned two days ago (on this page) that this opportunity is still an option in the future because they...

    Not if you also have THIS on the battlefield Frankie Peanuts All you gotta do is ask if the opponent if they remembered to get you a present with Peanut. If they answer yes, they are bound by that answer and must get you a present. If they answer no, they are not allowed to answer “yes” to...
