Sets BNG Spoilers

[DreamPaint]

I think that Satyr might be good. One of the problems with red is that pointing burn spells at creatures costs you a lot of aggression and you can stall out if they just keep throwing better creatures at you. I'm going to try him out. Also I think that Hydra is worth trying out too if the sacrifice theme is supported by your cube. Lastly, that Centaur-Oracle card looks pretty solid, but will destroy aggro decks.

 

[FlowerSunRain]

This is not Madcap Skills and is probably completely dependent on chaining off a Burning-Tree Emissary to be any good, but I'll be damned if it doesn't make me a little excited.

 

[Eric Chan]

Turning all your burn spells into searing blaze seems pretty strong. It's another way of shoring up the gas weakness of Counterburn, so consider that a point in it's favor

I might swap out Guttersnipe for this Hammer-loving satyr.

Well, we need guys that come back to keep Marshmist castable. May I recommend the Gravecrawler-Griselbrand deck?

real men pod into

 

[Dougggggg]

I always have to look at cards from new sets with 3 different lenses, drafting within the set, cube drafting, and constructed.

 

[FlowerSunRain]

And when you look at a card for cube drafting, you need two separate lenses for that! Cube design and cube play!

I'm glad I don't play any other formats.

One format is not enough to satiate my magic cravings.



Seems cubable, but there are so many good options of mana rock at 3.

It is a cool card, but it seems so expensive, and worse then lantern, relic and even darksteel ingot unless you have proliferate effects.

I'm guessing that's the cornucopia.

 

[anotak]

anyone with a proliferate theme would love that thing

 

[Jonas]

Whelming wave is awesome.

2uu: return all non kraken, leviathan, octopus and serpent creatures to its owners hand. Not much for cube, I guess, but I love the flavour.

 

[Chris Taylor]

yeah Wash out is probably better

It was. I just suck at the internet.

 

[anotak]

itd be nice if they stopped wasting amazing art on divination reprints

i need to just not look at the pre-spoiler arts because this is fires of undeath disappointment all over again

The only new playable? (Not that its great)

 

[Eric Chan]

The card I was long pining for, to run alongside Torch Fiend. Goodbye, Manic Vandal!

 

[Eric Chan]

Not really the ETB artifact & enchantment bear we were looking for

I'd already dug up my copy of Mulch a few days ago before ultimately deciding against it. I kinda like the look of this curious satyr, though. Should pair well with Grisly Salvage, and he can block to buy you some time, to boot!

 

[CML]

I am a fan of the Wayfinder

I'm gonna try this. Not a great haul, "socks for Christmas" more or less

Was this post satyr satire? No, really...

On the topic of awesome reprint art:

and non-reprint awesome art:

I like some colour in my Black cards...

 

[Changling Bob]

Not really the ETB artifact & enchantment bear we were looking for

Well making that ability on a legit playable creature at common in the small set is probably asking for miserable Theros block drafts, even if we'd love it.

 

[CML]

Eh, nobody bitched too much about QPM killing every esper creature or Wickerbough being a house*

*mainly because gw and g respectively sucked in those formats but like come on

 

[Konge]

It is a cool card, but it seems so expensive, and worse then lantern, relic and even darksteel ingot unless you have proliferate effects.

I'm guessing that's the cornucopia.

It's also worth noting that it is quite decent if you're attempting to run a Trinket Mage package.

 

[Jason Waddell]

Anybody have a list of other redirect damage effects / similar cards?
