General (SOS) Secrets of Strixhaven

[EzPzJapanezy]

Kinda a banger of a card that I was not expecting at all. In smaller cubes that support Grixis Big Spells this thing pulls a lot of weight for both fixing and explosive mana. Cruel Ultimatum is great with this

Any other bridges you can think of?

@Nanonox I think this is a much better bridge than Prismari 1.0

I think this is a fake render, but I can't say for sure. The resolution doesn't seem consistent across the image, but that could be due to compression weirdness.

The post for this on the main subreddit was also removed, leading me to beleive this whole thing was just a fake leak or April Fools joke.

I think you're right. The words "sent" and "graveyard" have never appeared on a card together. It would specify how they were sent to the graveyard like "put into your graveyard from anywhere" or something.

A kind of Artist's Talent on a creature. Not being limited to once a turn is amazing and it looks like my Blue section now has 2 more creatures I need to find room for.



I hate this one. In my mind, the fun of a wrath is to try and break the symmetry. Here you just get refunded for whatever creatures you had. It's powerful but going nowhere near my cubes.



I am tempted by this one. Sacrifice is very prevalent in my cube, be it artifact, creatures or lands. This gives you some serious value (or a win condition if things get crazy??).

Ominous Harvest is a cool one! I might try it as an occasional with a high ceiling.

Finally, I can die.

And they even got nice art! So happy to finally run the complete cycle.

Look, I know this isn't actually better than Indris, the Hydrostatic Surge, that the extra mana, no value if it gets removed and extra mana makes it worse but...storm is just cool, man.

This seems interesting as a Reanimator payoff, but I know the lack of ETB is a huge problem.

ook, I know this isn't actually better than Indris, the Hydrostatic Surge, that the extra mana, no value if it gets removed and extra mana makes it worse but...storm is just cool, man.

I think the design is sweet! 7 mana is just so much for a card that wants you to combo off after you play it, you know? I feel like the best use case is in cheating it out somehow and then trying to combo off, which doesn't necessarily feel worthwhile.

It's kind of hard to imagine a Cube where you'd consistently want to play this card as a storm enabler rather than just a 7/7 Flying Ward guy and still have it be powerful, which is the big reason I'm fairly low on it for this context.

Very clean and somewhat appealing if Tainted Indulgence is a thing your Cube would be into anyway. Love it!

It's also kinda neat that it's an X spell that isn't completely awful if you free-cast it.
