wow this is good. It's only three mana? I thought for sure it'd be 4 at least.View attachment 7250
He's here! Good art, good abilities. The best anthem on legs yet? I doubt I'll trigger that third ability in more than 5-10% of games but it's not terrible to have anyways.
HUGE ups to the Goyf Die TM.View attachment 7251

Do cards often use the not complete name in their rules text? Is there another card that is the original King Darien???View attachment 7250

We have often (for about 5-8 years now) seen cards that refer to themself using only part of the name. But the examples I can think of all had their own full name in the rules text as well. So it was only when the name was repeated in the rules text. Maybe the first would be the full length and the second mention would only be part of the name.Do cards often use the not complete name in their rules text?

I personally cannot think of a card that only mentions itself once on the card and only uses part of the name.
Does this mean they can never make another King Darien?
The first 47 King Dariens (Kings Darien?) weren’t worthy of a card, and the Phyrexian invasion is putting the bloodline in jeopardy.Does this mean they can never make another King Darien?

Phyrexia sucks. And of course they’re compleating the likeable planeswalkers first, instead of the total dickheads that are also roaming the universe. R.I.P. Jaya, Tamiyo, and AjaniJaya Ballard - b.1995 - d.2022

I like this. Nice nod to play more colors, in my cube this is (on average) 3 mana, with the hope for more.
Is the Goyf better or more interesting than
?
Hybrid mana is great and random pod like ability for redundancy.
I think they're different enough that a 1:1 comparison isn't really fair. Fiend Artisan can't grow itself without tapping and squandering other resources already on the board. The Goyf, by contrast, can fuel itself and other graveyard synergy cards for a small one-time mana payment. I think having a way to put 1/7th of your starting library into your graveyard on one card can enable some shenanigans in a way fiend artisan never could.I don't think it's better or more interesting, no.
Totally agree. I don't think I'm going to be *playing* a substantial percentage of the cards I think are cool in my Cube, but I am very excited to go to prerelease and draft this set on Arena.Man, this set is *stacked*. I went through the spoiler and I'm up to 40 cards that I'm interested in.
