we have Self-Destruct now! You can do fun things when your creature has a bigger butt than front! This doesn't do much for RG specifically obviously, but you know, target your Brimaz, King of Oreskos or very small Vivi Ornitier or whatever.

Americans typically use "every part of the buffalo" (indigenous to America) but the British equivalent I've heard (and Terry Pratchett used) was "every part of the pig but the squeal" - I think you can get away with most animals that can be eaten, honestly! (this is the kind of post I'm...

You said RG and discard! Rydia, Summoner of Mist (the Saga bit is an additive distraction. maybe you have Summon: Fenrir? that one's strong, there's some value here if you do have any, but she's here to be Rummaging Goblin+++.) Plus here's everything else I know, which I would recommend far...

It's the same token as on Invasion of New Phyrexia / Invasion of Beleron / Knight of the Coalition / my favorite of this list of cards by a mile, Xerex Strobe-Knight. ...this is not an answer, though.

honestly I think it's in the same position it was in a decade ago - it's not that great against pure control despite leaving a 3/3 behind when it dies, it's real good in midrange mirrors, and it's backbreakingly strong against aggro because 5 life is so much - if slightly less good. like it...

I am honestly convinced that someone with decision making pull thinks that players love the Omenpaths. Not like, in the sense of "they are good to let us tell stories and not have to focus on planeswalkers", but like "the reception of this story will be better - completely regardless of all...

...is that Count von Count

I thiiink the five students are Quintorius/Zimone/Maybe Dina/And You Were There!!! (for some random value of new idiots) like I think we aren't getting Killian or Rootha? so some new faces edit: to be clear this is a shame because Rootha, Mercurial Artist was one of the most fun retail...

Couple new spoilers today: The return of -1/-1 counters as a named set mechanic! A joke about Incremental Blight goes here! Proliferate and convoke, I like both of those!

I think I'd prefer Honor of the two. Have you considered Scout's Warning and/or Bandage? They do very different things, but both of them sort-of-protect your creatures better than either of those two. I think the novelty of playing Bandage might be worth it too, because that's funny.

I was 13 in 2003. Torment came out. You better believe it was both my favorite set and the one I bought the most of. My monoblack deck feasted! Judgement... not so much. And to this day I can't spell it with the E without hesitating and pausing to add it. Same as Dissension, which is...

NOT TO ME IT DOESN'T

Vithian Stinger! I love Vithian Stinger! (this is not a power level endorsement relative to all those cards.)

honestly I don't love it - I get that's it both Not Kicker and Not Exhaust*, but I think in general it's going to read a little more confusingly than either several years down the line. "additive distraction" style text. even if i bet it'll play real well because it's just two mechanics that are...

someday I'll have a cube where Ichor Drinker is playable or perhaps Sunder the Gateway

We're getting Marvel Super Heroes previews apparently. I don't actually care enough to make a thread, so someone else will have to. Sorry.

yeaaaaah I thought it had been banned (it's funny because lmao at the top 8 of the pt etc etc)

While it's not a pump spell, I was very pleasantly surprised with Tamiyo's Safekeeping in retail Limited. The ability to protect anything rather than just creatures, indestructible on top of hexproof to be anti-Wrath too, and the surprise lifegain to swing a race added up to a lot more power...

Top 8 is 4 Izzet Lessons, 2 Temur Otters, 1 Izzet Looting, and Ken Yukuhiro on Superior Spider-Man Reanimator. 7/8 decks that didn't exist/were significantly altered by this set! (that 8th deck is somehow not a joke, like 6 people total brought that deck and the same guy who won PT FF top8'd...

While I don't have enough reps to confidently endorse it, there's also Contest of Claws Don't forget that Collected Company Chord of Calling are also technically "interaction" (especially with the combat step!)
