Sets [DTK] Dragons of Tarkir Spoilers Thread

[Chris Taylor]

Umm, a little on the nose?

Probably, but honestly that seems sweet. The fact that it's not horrible (and that reach is more needed than it looks) with no other +1/+1 counter dudes makes me happy.
I wasn't playing Garruk's Companion, but this is going right in

 

[Chris Taylor]

Okay wotc, you got me. this is cool

 

[Dom Harvey]

RIP in pieces Kalonian Tusker

 

[Dom Harvey]

Assault Formation is the greatest thing I've ever seen

(only slightly hyperbolic)

 

[Rasmus Källqvist]

All the Dorsn fun in just one of the colors! Is the Avatar maybe the green +1/+1 matters card we've been lookin for?

 

[FlowerSunRain]

I'd say he had a good run, but he really didn't. Not sure why I never wrote trample on it, now I don't have to.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

Yay! A second Doran for my cube! Now it really becomes a build around subtheme

What's up with all the CC two-drops. Those are horrible for cube!

 

[Jonas]

Yes! Time for me to play standard with a wall deck! It has been far too long!

They're honestly not as bad as people make them out to be.

Running like, 9/14 of your 2 drops costing WW (Like the old days) is horrible for anyone trying to play 2 colors, but your cube can pretty easily support 2-3 CC 2 drops and have people not complain. I've loved double ash zealot for a long time, and between this guy, new Anafenza, now she might not be alone

I'm just sad it doesn't have an effect that stacks nicely- worst thing about so many build-around cards.

Still awesome, though. Fair number of big-butt guys that can attack regardless lately.

Jace the Mind Sculptor dressed as a bear ?

 

[Eric Chan]

Oh god green defender + wall theme in cube go go go

I already wanted to run all of these, maybe now I can

 

[Goldenpineapple]

That's all I've got in green, really. There are other creatures with silklash spider-like stats that aren't walls but would still benefit greatly.

 

[James Stevenson]

Umm, a little on the nose?

I like it, but sadly it doesn't work with Experiment One. Am I right?

 

[Karl]

I'm thinking you can just order the triggered abilities and it should work.

 

[Modin]

Only that it isn't a triggered ability

 

[yan]

pretty good set. testing:

hidden dragonslayer - feels like a level up card. not bad early and a not useless topdeck
ojutai exemplars

stratus dancer

silumgar assassin - feels like the weakest morph based on his combat ability. gets rid of a floater

zurgo bellstriker
ire shaman - really like both his abilities well costed morph

den protector

narset transcendent - feels like jace or ajani whered id just use the minus over and over

kolaghans command

dragonlord atarka

sarkhan unbroken

 

[Eric Chan]

I think this set is a little worse than normal for a large set in terms of cube inclusions, though I suppose the last large set that didn't come out in the fall, Gatecrash, was even more underwhelming. Still holding out for a good, cheap rebound spell!

Btw Liliana, Heretical Healer comes out in the next set after Dragons. (That card tag should work in like a year!)

 

[Karl]

Only that it isn't a triggered ability

Aww, you're right.

 

[FlowerSunRain]

There's tons of great tools in this set, I can't complain. Design keeps getting better and better.

 

[anotak]

that's not a triggered ability

 

[Dom Harvey]

it isn't a triggered ability

 

[FlowerSunRain]

Could I get some clarification on whether or not that is a triggered ability?

 

[Karl]

It checks the board before it enters the battlefield. If it said When he enters, then it would work.

Jeez really? Sometime this fall?
