What are the really good 2 mana creatures nowadays? Last time I played, stuff like Tarmogoyf, Snapcaster Mage, Dark Confidant and Young Pyromancer were the shit.

>>96491268Premodern is the cure, friend.
>>96491274
Just make Universe Beyond silver border and errata every collab to be non-legal, make it one or two blocks a year, stop the power creepShrimple as
>>96491274I dunno, if I could just be that copy of chaos orb that was torn up and thrown on the table... I would pick that one, a true legend or just urban legend.... I would know truth and be a champion or not exist at all.
>>96491288To be honest, the whole lore of mtg is kinda lost on me, are we supposed to bitch about stuff like the dark pulling crap from Halloween legends, or antiquities being magic in Arabia? Like fucking what the fuck? You can make your own cube and play with yourself. These collabs are bringing in new players, and the game will die without them retard.
>>96491356That's cool faggot but I don't engage with namefagsI cast my second Approach and have won
>>96491288As a player, whatever there's so much bullshit that's reoccurring. We got Urzas and Chandra and all kinds of other shit. You expect me to know the lore behind all this crap? I don't know why tezzeret and urza do artifact bull shit and I don't need to know that crap, it literally has 0 impact on my gameplay. All of a sudden Vivi shows up and breaks the game, like Jace has done teferi has done, I mean fuck off for a few years and come back, nobody will even notice you're gone.
>>96491268Hot Dog Cart
>>96491365I just pact of negation, finish your turn faggot.
>>96491382>>96491391I cast spell pierce and holding priority cast Shut The Fuck Up Stupid Namefag then link summon IP Masquerena
>>96491403Bro I already jesters masked all your copies of shut the fuck up stupid name fag. Are we going to need to call the judge?
Ok /tg/, if you had to come up with a new mechanic for MTG, what would you come up with?
>>96491414Bite the bullet and establish positional rules for the game. adjacent, left, right, in front, unobstructed, etc.
>>96491282Have they made an affinity for dragons? That'd be a dope mechanic. It'd be bitched about like slivers, and affinity, but fun and make stupid piles viable.
>>96491414sex
>>96491414>Ok /tg/, if you had to come up with a new mechanic for MTG, what would you come up with?You mean other than the ones I already have?Adventure but it doesn't exile. Basically just split cards where one half is a creature.
>>96491429already exists
>>96491439Omens
>>96491414See >>96491421So its like... a 5 color rainbow faggot dragon, but gives all your dragons affinity for dragons.... works for casual players in their commander games. Maybe print a treasure dragon that can sacrifice for a mana to fix it or whatever... I dunno, that'd be cool
>>96491444Yeah Omen without shuffling. Shuffling is a tiresome game action that should be reduced as much as is feasible.
>>96491439I could see that hope/hate thing being really fun. The save your enchantment crap... I see it difficult because of the activation cost... just call it enchanted equipment and its not an artifact but acts like equipment
>>96491470>The save your enchantment crap... I see it difficult because of the activation cost... just call it enchanted equipment and its not an artifact but acts like equipmentIt's an open-ended ability word on more than just auras.
>>96491133Premodern is starting to pick up in Japan a little bit; previously Japan was Middle School and Old School only in terms of quasi-official fan formats. I've seen a handful of Japanese women who play legacy on Twitter and saw 2 women and 1 trap playing in person when I last visited.
It's fucking card.
>>96491754okay? It's literally just cards saying him instead of it
>>96491421Affinity for artifacts worked because there's a lot of cheap artifacts that do something marginally useful.Affinity for dragons may as well read "affinity for 6-drops with no inbuilt discount" which is probably the most useless line of text imaginable.
>>96491766'It' has worked for 30 years. The changes in templating to this point have been focused on making the game clearer and more recently saving space to overcomplicate the cards. This has identity politics and woke pronouns written all over it.
>>96491766I would greater prefer a clear delineation in templating between cards and players, or we're going to readily run into mixed meaning "they" within a single text box.
>>96491965valid
>>96491414Horsemankicker
>>96491918how long do you think it will take for WotC to use Xir/Xim in a real card?
>>96492042Next Lorwyn
>>96492049the end is night
>>96492042It's okay because this stunningly brave decision will be placed on a 2c legendary creature printed at uncommon that has no remarkable properties even in draft.
>Lorwyn is being turned into the gay sissy plane because it's reflecting Bolas's subconscious desires to be railed by Ugin
>>96492042this will never happen. Singular they/them for sure, but they already did that with Sami in EoE.
>>96491912Nobody said the mechanic was supposed to be good. Make it a fucking 2 mana artifact that can be your commander that gives all dragons the affinity for dragons text.
>>96492042>Xir/XimThey already used those in some kaldheim stories so it shouldn't be long before it appears on real cards
>>96492152>kaldheimdon't remind me
It’s pronounced “Niggerheim”
How can we save this game?Everything is shit…
Wait Lorwyn will have non-commander decks? Why did they have to change the setting to make it gay ?! :(
guess the upcoming ubs for 2026 anons, the slop we will have to eat may be not as terrible as current slop!
>>96492152>They already used those in some kaldheim stories
Why is this the only spell that makes Teval's delve-granting ability even slightly worth using?
>>96492381You better use exsanguinate as it doesn't target.
who thought more players = better game outside wotc shills?
>>96492450More players equals more profits which is always good (according to hasjew)Infinite line goes up is the worst meme this world has seen
>>96492464it's just that I see "players" using this argument to defend universes beyond
>>96492450who thinks more players = dead game outside of gatekeeping autists
>>96490987>if you could be any magic card
>>96491190No it doesn't.>flip titi>play looting as spell>move to combat
>>96491190play arcane adaptation naming horror
Thread theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pBo-GL9SRg>Flames to dust>Lovers to friends>Why do all good things come to an end?I should have stopped caring about MtG years ago. Goodbye and thank you for all the good memories.
>>96492667I bet hit play group will allow him to play Graham O'Brien and The Cabbage Merchant as partner commanders
>>96492667>Saffron Olive was never truly the same after UB entered standard...
This cannot kill Cloud, but can kill Spider-Man villains
>>96492765Trust WotC, they will definitely add villain to the list, trust MaRo(lots of irony)
>>96492667What makes a man, attached for so many years to a product, so devoid and idiotic that he is capable of throw away any logic, do the most impressive mental gymnastic ever and tell himself to every person alive that he will actually embrace the shit, and what's more, enjoy it... I guess all it takes is just one bad day uh?
>>96492667Why does he do that annoying fake voice in his videos?
Why didn't oldwalkers just eat a bunch of sandwiches, hot dogs, and bagels to become harder to kill? Were they stupid?
>>96492847What makes you think it's fake?
>>96491419very good.
>>96492765Villains often work within the law.
>>96492847>she thinks that LARDonions is faking that "voice".
>>96491414Keyword for a bunch of mechanics that punish players for playing spells costing less mana than their MV. Damage to the opponent, surveilling, putting +1/+1 counters, you name it.
>>96492937I don't think Black Cat, Venom, or Green Goblin do.
>>96492961Sure, but many do. Doctor Doom famously is basically extralegal. It's not an inherent legality thing, being a Villain. Many Heroes are arguably Outlaws too.
>>96492883It doesn't sound natural, it sounds forced, like he's trying to imitate the announcer that saw the Hidenberg go up in flames. His continual head movements are also unnatural, it's clearly a fake voice for show.
>>96492359I had no idea. Holy shit.

>>96492667this unironically reads like a Joker breakdown rantembracing madness and all thatI almost respect it, at least he's finding fun in this endless mire instead of desperately clinging to some vain hope things will ever actually get better
>>96492667>modern food>both foods were made in-between 14th and 17th centuryI know what he meant, but I was just a bit annoyed by that
>>96492667Honestly, I've never been a fan of food as a card subtype. It's kinda cute when there are food synergies, especially when it comes to food creatures, but it was one of the many mechanics in the past 10 years that just didn't feel like it justified being in a game about magic. Food should've just been a creature type and all food tokens should've been kindred/tribal artifact tokens.
>>96493290They just probably wanted to do another way to get life-gain but couldn't think of another way to do it
This is AI generated, right?>weird grid windows>brick wall fence>chimney isn't in line with itself>power lines going to nowhere and are higher than a 3 story house>birds on the power lines are fucking massive
>>96493396Before you scream AI, maybe google the artist first. See what they have done before.
>>96491190phoenix hasn't been on thing for a while now, what does the rest of your list looks like? are you running picklock prankster, proft's eidetic memory and artist talent? if not, consider running 4-2-1 copies of them respectively
>>96493396retard
>>96493396not ai the artist is just a dumbshit
>>96493416I did check his Artstation, and it all looked generally fine to me. If Sanctuary's art was available in higher resolution it would be a lot easier to compare to his other stuff.
>>96492667The man has been broken and all he can do now is cope. It's inevitable as this game becomes a whored out parody of itself: you either cope or you seethe or you walk away. I almost feel bad for these long time content creators because they've built their livelihood on Magic and now they have to watch while it collapses before their eyes and wonder if they could've done something to prevent this.
>>96491268
>>96493521The end is near.
>>96493521I saw a video about that, apparently he was also going around calling himself art director of Lorcana. In front of other artists for the line who knew he wasn't. He also signed cards other people drew, putting his signature over their names.
