General Timespiral Remastered Timeshifts

[Onderzeeboot]

Why are you not just fanning them the other way round? It always felt more natural to me to do it that way.

Because then I only see the mana cost (and I can identify cards by their name, but only very few by their casting cost) :') Also, I've been playing for over 10 years, I think it's safe to say fanning them this way has become a habit

 

[TrainmasterGT]

I didn't honestly believe they would do it, but they did!

These are dang nice:

Onder's Picture

Thank you for the reference pic. I suppose a "classic" card holding style. I hold mine more vertically oriented, which I am guessing is made easier by my southpaw grip . My hand comes in basically straight from the left side

(please excuse my abysmal artistic efforts).

I mean, that is a sublime choice for this frame treatment, considering the subject.

Edit: Wow, that's one of the first times I saw a card spoiled earlier here than in the MTG Cube Brainstorming Discord channel. Those guys and gals are usually lightning fast!

And I was the one to spoil it there!

However, I think it makes sense. You have to consider the context...

I enjoyed Zoss's tinkering with the M15 frame, so I decided to play around, too. I chose Counterspell since it has lots of real versions to compare.

I made an incredibly ugly mockup with proportions that are way off, but something like this (but prettier) would have my preference.

YESYES
Especially the Cutthroat is incredible. I expected them to do Blood Artist instead, which is too strong for my cube, but they went with the right one for me. And it's even the maximum improvement from 2014 frame to 93 frame.

So many playables, so nice how many of the artworks work well with the frame (especially the black cards!), so beautiful.

I'm pumped to have Yawgmoth. I was hoping we could get Urza as well, but too bad. However for tomorrow I am crossing my fingers for both Feldon of the Third Path and Faithless Looting. I think both cards would look incredible and Looting needs the little tombstone!

I will be very surprised if they don't do Faithless Looting!

 

[TrainmasterGT]

I almost put Stinky here on my list of potential reprints. I think his being in the set means we might see Life from the Loam and Golgari Grave-Troll after all!

Standard playing cards will usually have the indices top left (and bottom right) making Onderzeeboot’s fan more natural to anyone coming to magic from poker, bridge or rummy.

Am I the only one slightly bothered by Phyrexian and hybrid mana on the 7th Edition card frames? Probably no more than the unfamiliarity of seeing them in that context.

I noticed they made the Phyrexian mana symbol the same size as normal mana symbols in the casting cost of Dismember (but not in the reminder text!), whereas they are noticeably larger on the modern frames. That weirded me out a bit.

Oh man a timeshifted Loam would be superb!

 

[shamizy]

I'm gonna be so broke if they just continue trotting out Cube all-stars in that Timeshifted slot.

Yeah they're really hitting a suspicious amount of beloved cube cards in those slots, huh?

"suspicious", in the sense that they're trying to sell those packs, you mean?

 

[ravnic]

These bastards want our money, I knew it!

 

[Rasmus Källqvist]

Yeah but cubers money in particular? Although I reckon people who are interested in timespiral are enfranchised players who like limited, so make sense that they'd use cube favourites as incentive to buy the packs. I sure will!

 

[Rasmus Källqvist]

They're just printing cards we're talking about all the time on this board!

 

[Mondschwein]

tbh I'm in LOVE with the old frame (especially the templates used from Mirage to Scourge)
all the basic lands for my cube are in old frame because I really like the contrast there.

for all the other cards, I finally decided to go full modern frame, since I heavily dislike having too many differences. some of the spoilers so far are pretty tempting, making me want to reverse my decision. I'll have to stay strong. :eek:

Mad lads, they did it!
