Sets (TDM) Tarkir: Dragonstorm Previews!

[TrainmasterGT]

Going into this spoiler season with a Khan-do attitude!

This card seems ok. Is it just me or does Narset sort of look like a Pirate here?

 

[Velrun]

Aren’t all Monks Pirates?

That's a cool card, but why doesn't she say "noncreature"? I just hope that's no indicator, that Jeskai is just casting spells of any kind this time, as I was really hoping for some white prowess support.

Oh no you’re right!

Maybe we’ve gone so far the wrong direction that we don’t want to reward players for casting noncreatures. And they really should only cast mythic rare cards actually.

I’m in the opposite boat! I have creature and noncreature strategies in White and if I can get a payoff that works for both, great! That means there is more tension in the draft and less isolated cards.

Dope card. Willing to consider the possibility of not being a hater about this set. Let the record show I am going in with an open mind and open heart. Ball in WotC's court.

Any card that lets you throw loads of cards between zones activates my neurons. Seems like a weirder Beast Whisperer or Archmage Emeritus, which is fun.

They got your back Ravnic, the next one after this is a Standard legal Final Fantasy set

I don't know what's funnier: the fact that this is a perfect response to a Ravnic post or the fact that Ravnic did not leave that comment.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

Hahaha, it was so on brand for ravnic that I didn’t even hesitate! Sorry @gaytransmulldrifter and @ravnic XD

 

[gaytransmulldrifter]

LMFAO

 

[TrainmasterGT]

Siege Rhino is back and better than ever!

I like the fact that this one can be Unearthed. It could also receive a Helping Hand!

 

[Onderzeeboot]

If this isn’t a love letter to Saf, I don’t know what is

It's a little smaller, at least.

RIP Jeskai "noncreature" spells theme, I guess.

"you lose life, I gain life" theme?

It looks like the Jeskai theme for this set will actually be "Storm:"

I had suspicions of this since seeing the Narset. I don't hate it, but I hope the uncommons and commons are focused on noncreature stuff. Especially the UR cards.

The dragon's pretty cool.

 

[inscho]

A hair on the slow side but pretty powerful once it gets going

Imagine playing Modern in April and the opponent plays Cavern of Souls choosing Rhino

You know… 4 x 2 + 4 x 3 = 20!

 

[Seeker]

if only Crashing Footfalls was Kindred - Rhino so you could play Thalia and then make it uncounterable

this doesn't actually work but work with me here

I wish the storm dragon didn't have anti-synergy with Dragonstorm. Cool beyblade set-symbol though

 

[LadyMapi]

Someone at WotC remembered that Dragonstorm was a deck at one point, but didn't quite remember how it worked.

Nah, you just need Dragon Tempest out, storm into Stormscale Scion, swing out, cast Dragonrage to get a ton of mana, and then Quicken Dragonstorm for the win. This is an entirely reasonable gameplan, and not a Sarkhan-tier dragon meltdown.

 

[EzPzJapanezy]

Damn Dragon Tempest is actually so cool. I just wish it and 'Form of the Dragon' were Typal Enchantment - Dragon so badly
