>>96864333>>96864371Looking forward to play this in my commander deck!!
>>96864110Fellow piggas how are we feeling at the new UB slop?

MMMH!!LESSONS, LEGENDS, SAGAS, FIREBENDING...UIMMU IN MY TUMMY!!
Of all the cards shown so far, here are all the interesting designs I found. I don't think I missed any. Firebending is cool.t. Avatarlet, just looking at this set mechanically
>>96864559You forgot pic related
>>96864559>Another overpowered blue creature with """restrictive""" conditions>Interesting
>>96864651These scare you?
>>96864651These scare you? (Forgot pic)
>What will it take for MTG to be good again?Three months if you're a draftchad
>>96864559oink oink snort
>>96864666>one of the two in universe sets>has 5 weeks of play time before TMNT is out
Why is it that some absolute nothing unplayable chaff card that isn't even a story spotlight gets an alternate art but then you have shit like Nihil Spellbomb that have been meta for 20 years and they only have 1 art?
I can't fucking wait to not play this game ever again, sell everything, and move on with my life
>>96864663Cobbled Lancer is really close to being good, but just doesn't quite get there.
>>96864780>one of the most pushed rares of its set>absolute nothing unplayable chaff
>>96864794Do it right now then? What's the holdup?
>>96864780Because new sets get alt art on most rares by default these days compared to old sets released decades ago when it wasn't really a thing
>>96864780The DTK collector arts are a weird treatment. At least we got this hottie out of it.Magic is so starved for hot chicks.
>>96864745Pretty grim right?
>>96864972Did red really need this? I mean seriously what the fuck?
>>96864981If you had the SLIGHTLEST hope of Red not being the top horse of the format past November 10 let me make a daily reminder to you: Abandon any hope with cards like pic related
Is there a reason that "creature deals damage to itself equals to its power" can't be reworded into "fights itself"?
MARO NOOOO PLEASE DON'T DEPORT ME TO VENEZUELA
>>96865058>Is there a reason that "creature deals damage to itself equals to its power" can't be reworded into "fights itself"?Because fighting itself would cause itself to do that damage to itself twice.
>>96865002Yo! Is that an instant speed fight spell in red!? Totally broken dude
>>96865058https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programmingBecause they are 2 separate objects that work differently and have 2 separate purposes and applications, the game rules are like a programming code, if you just start typing in english casually you end up with jeet code and elon will hire you for a fraction of the pay.
tqmtg can only be fixed if commander ceases to exist
>>96865126And also because if you write informally what a card does the game rules don't apply anymore and it's up to player's interpretation.
>>96865002This, the Raphjutsu, and that firebending Prowess loli are going to rape anything that lets it untap on turn 3. I can't believe this shit. They get a 1 mana counterspell too.All the red bullshit also is still just as powerful outside of Standard. If you took the pre-ban Standard Monored Mice against Modern Jund from 2015 I bet Jund would lose 100% of the time.
>>96865109Yeah, Bro! When was the last time an instant red fight spell was banned? Red is balanced you don’t have to worry about a thing!! Surely Firebend is a well designed mechanic!!I wish i was as stupid as retard-kun
>>96865136>NUUU my less popular made up format is taken over by another made up formatcry every thread
>>96865058Because technically the latter makes it also retaliate, so it deals 2x power to itself.
I'm tired of how pushed red is. They just have access to too many threatening low cost creatures and 1 mana pump spells. Even the less egregious shit like this is annoying because even if you remove their guy they still get a body out of it. Heartfire Hero was annoying because if you didn't exile it you took damage anyway. You literally can't even go 1-for-1 against their stupid fucking 1 drops.How the fuck do people not see this as a huge problem?
>>96865148You are retarded that's not a fight spell it's a combat trick. The last playable fight spell I remember is Blizzard Brawl.
>>96865158That's the thing, anon. It's not made up anymore. It's the driving force behind every Wotc decision, be it UB or card design. Commander used to be played with Magic cards, but these days Magic plays have to play with Commander cards.
>>96865146>>96865148
>>96865179Excuse me niggy this exists
>>96865194It was only used for gimmicky BG Negator decks.
>>96865179The fight spells and combat trick has the same purpose in current red decks anon, you are thinking of green and you are being oblivious maybe on purpose of the state of red what makes you an absolute retard, but go keep trying make a pointless argument.
>>96865189why him hates green and white? is something religious? pure retardation? incompetence? or red fags are better customers than the rest of colour pie?
>>96865215I don't give a fuck about green after playing against those Nykthos decks. Fuck green. Green is going to suffer until Nykthos is banned.
>>96865221What Nyktos has to do with Standard, man? Let it go, Green deserves some time in the light…
>>96865215His favorite color is green. He doesn't control power level only design. All the cards he designs are fixed by play design to have an appropriate powerlevel.
>>96865215One factor would be that if you're a cuck and you still don't play with proxies (only good formats) RDW is realistically the only deck anyone who isn't a trust fund kid can afford, so they milk that wedge of the market.
>>96865215Why would anyone hate any color? Especially people in charge? They want to sell all the colors.
Green has Modern (Amulet Titan)White has Vintage (Initiative)Red has Standard (every year)Blue has Legacy (Delver)I guess that leaves Black for PioneerJOTC has effectively segregated the formats.
>All this seething about red>not too long ago black was the prime bullshit color and green before that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCrSknNSerAAccording to Blake 2026 will only have 120 more cards than this year meaning 2026 will have 2 small sets. Probably the hobbit.
>>96865248>Why would anyone hate any color?Kikewater explicitly hates white because early in his career he kept losing to STP and Armageddon, which is why he will always declare anything strong in White a color pie break (Dawn of Hope, Smothering Tithe, etc) and never give a shit about other colors breaking pie
>>96865215Commander is the only format they balance for when creating cards and red is the "weakest" colour in commander hence all the pushed cards whilst green is arguably the strongest which is why it gets fuck all
>>96865250>that picIt's the fucking jews and the truck full of one legged pants all over again kek.
>>96865247The actual poor people just play Pokémon where meta decks are $150 tops and you can beat them with $20 decks so if you want you can just play $20-$30 decks and have fun.That used to be a thing in Magic too with only a few years ago MtGGoldfish having those budget modern articles where Soiffron would make $100 modern decks that were competitive against the field, but now money just straight up equals power and the pushed cards are so pushed he can't even do that anymore.This game has become so much less fun because all the strong shit is now so strong there is zero decision-making and everyone's become so used to it they don't even see it anymore. Like this is an INSANELY broken card but no one thinks about it because this is normal now.
Zookeeper
>>96865279tummy
Well what I dislike is again having the same character on five different cards.
>>96865279>bare attractive teen girl navelBros... are we saved?
>>96865279>Zookeeper is going to be in Standard with ChangelingsOh boy I love when designers intentionally enact bad ideas just for the sake of their audacity!
>>96865299Changelings are human.
>>96865303brb, sudoku time
>>96865215>He doesn't remember G midrange raping Standard for literally 4 years>He doesn't remember him personally designing the strongest card in the game to be white
>>96865279finally masked meower support
Fuck Green
reminder
>>96865279what is WRONG with that art on the left holy kek
>>96865258>I have to deal with 7 fucking products next year, more than 1 every two months>”Is only 120 cards, bro, just a small fee for our investors, bro”Blake can suck my hairy balls.
>>96865279>the random zookeeper from Tales of Ba Sing Se is a rareI don't know what exactly I'm expecting them to fill up the rare slot with, but some of these choices are odd.
>>96864745>3 is 2 now
>>96865279Surely, SURELY this will end well.
>>96865388>Mutavault tokennigger what
>>96865388that's a human, anon
>>96865388Does the "non-Human" part of Zookeeper's text just bypass you?
>green is so weak guys
>nigger what
>>96865377The artist seems to specialize in far range landscapes.
>>96865279What's the point of "max 10" on this card? Don't tell me they're planning on printing a non-human changeling, knowing fully well that cards checking type count exist and use "non-human" to flag changelings.
>>96865411Because humans are ubiquitous.
>>96865388>mutavault tokenmutavault token>mutavault tokenmutavault token>mutavault tokenmutavault token>mutavault tokenwe are reaching design levels of garbage that shouldn’t be even possible…
>>96865411They know about the Embiggen combo with the werewolf.
>>96865410I mean appa, that penguin and hell even the person in that other card looks decent but that cat is HORRIBLE
:3 ;3
>>96865411It's just a safety valve for edge cases. For example, say you make pic-related a Changeling and then activate its ability, it now has every type except Human.
>>96865377Many things, starting with animal's eyes. There's something... low-poly in the art.
>>96865279
Greenbros...
Put me in coach!
>>96865440Free him
>>96865439>no evasion
>>96865446You keep evasion in your hand.
>>96865446oh yeah? watch this>evades your post
>>96865279>set's mechanics look interesting>set's art is just fake anime interpretations which are basically just screenshots of the showI'm not feeling it, Mr. Krabs.
>>96865279That's the type of card that I always liked "Shitbrew" enabler. Shame about the crappy art.
He did literally nothing wrong. Free him.
>me slopbending with my new Nickelodeon's Avatar: the Last Airbender cards
>>96865539Where we are going we don't even need to exile cards from our hand for mana, we only need to attack with creatures.
>>96865440Literally you can unban him in Modern and Pioneer and he will be balanced.
>>96865388>labman downshifted from rste to uncommon>mutavault downshifted from rare to token
>>96865539You can unban half the list from MH constru… I mean Modern and the format would still remain the same garbage.
>>96865440Unban my nigga URO!
Reminder that Golgari Grave Troll is still banned, somehow
>unban Twin>literally nothing happens
>>96865581Troll enables grave niggery too much. Especially with the new stuff they're pumping out>>96865589I don't think twin would even be a tier 2 deck now
Anti-UB sisters... everyone seems to be loving Avatar... have we lost??
>>96865581Whatever happened to that "unban the grave troll" anon?
>>96865258It's so funny that they found out that Aftermath sets were a commercial disaster only after they already had a bunch of them in the pipeline.
>>96865589This could be applied to many shit>Unban Jitte>Unban Bridge>Unban Ponder>Unban Rite of Flame
>>96865629>Avatar set>Doesn't bring back Balance to the world Confirmed kike set
>>96865657>Honest work during you into a powerless drone that can only tap for colorless.Wow, WotC, you truly had the hard working american, don't ya?
>>96865629Is “Everyone” in the room with us, schizobrother?
>>96865629turn out it was new york fatigue, not UB fatigue.
>>96865629It's the classic two vocal minority problem. which one is bigger? who can say. All we know is the majority are unquestioning consumers and therefor always will side with the pro avatar crowd.
>>96865729As always has been and always will be with MtG.
>>96865215monowhite is the actual redheaded stepchild. green is pretty much always good, this current standard format is an anomaly. amulet titan has been tier 1 in modern for like fucking 15 years
Colorless temporal anchor.
>>96865774
>>96865774Ah, fuck Tron.
>>96865774>Do this only once each turn
>>96865782I mean it's SIMILAR but Planetarium is just not the same thing.
>>96865786Yes. Limitations are, in fact, good for balance.
>>96865247>RDW is realistically the only deck anyone who isn't a trust fund kid can affordyou can play burn in legacy for under $100 and beat people with $4,000 decks. the most expensive card in the deck is mindbreak trap sideboard for five bucks.
>>96865275>That used to be a thing in Magic too with only a few years ago MtGGoldfish having those budget modern articles where Soiffron would make $100 modern decks that were competitive against the field, but now money just straight up equals power and the pushed cards are so pushed he can't even do that anymore.the only way to play constructed on a budget is either on MTGO where tix prices are vastly lower than paper, or on arena which has its own issues but wildcards are fungible so rarity is what determines scarcity not a card's actual price.budget paper magic is fucking dead and buried
>>96865801>balanceNot Magic as Garfield intended.
>>96865793I'd reckon planetarium is better, desu.
>>96865833Well, yes, playing a single card of choice for free is usually better than maybe playing some cards later for not-free.
>>96865544pigs will consoome whatever trash is served to thembetween this pile of shit and spider-man being actually forced by shills and discussed here, i lost all respect and faith in for these generalsoinkers gonna oink

Verdict on the ATLA cards so far?
>>96865848>>96865864>>96865886why are you talking to yourself
>>96865894trash
>>96865894Not as bad as Spiderman
>>96865903FINbros...the bump...what happened...
>>96865894UB trashWill probably sell well despite this
>>96865892It's the same creatures and different pump spells. The core is the same.
>>96865913yfw there are less players now than when fff came out
>>96865931The bump though!!!! It brought so many players into the game!
>>96865937pigs only stay for so long then they get taken to the slaughterhouse
why is the tripzillian arenaposting here?did the arena thread die again?
>>96865894Lots of cards have the cartoony style of the source material which looks worse than the default in-house style. The general look of the set is very unappealing.
Why does Modern Zoo play 4 of this?Lightning Helix is good and all but really? 3 isn't enough?
>>96865945MtG's inhouse style has been trash for over a decade
>>96865945Shut the fuck up homo the WotC in-house style fucking sucks
>>96865918that's called being in the same archtype, not being the same deck, the modern list is like 80% cards that aren't in standard
>>96865945this.>>96865949>>96865951and this also.
>>96865946>Why does Modern Zoo play 4 of this?Because it wins games.
>>96865946Lightning Helix that draws a 4 mana 6/6 that casts Lightning Helix every turn
unless the unreleased cards are premium removal, standard is going to be even more of a shitshow
"boy am i glad my slop has fewer darkies and trans this time around even if it looks kinda childish"
>>96865279Who did it better?
>>96865946That's the same sort of thinking that led to retards calling Uro and overcosted Growth Spiral.
>>96865946because escaping phlage on a empty board is 12 damage to the opponents facehelix can't do that

>>96865945I hate the fucking screenshots. if every card looked like pic related (nice tummy btw) I'd be alright with it
>>96864559Firebending Student is about to go apeshit on Standard huh
>>96865946>Lightning Helix is good and all but really? 3 isn't enough?you play him for the same reason you play even nerfed Lurrus in lightpaws auras decks; it's something to spend your mana on after turn 3 and 4 when your hand is empty or you're getting flooded on land drops as a way to close out the game.
>>96865995What are you talking about?It'll be fine!imagine, if you will, the level of stupidity you have to be at to print these both not just in the same Standard environment, but in the same fucking SET
turn 3 sunspine links off Student/Kai is finna be gangbusters
>genuinely thinking about buying into premoderngrim
>>96866011it's ok because the art is a sweaty loli btw
>People just cant stop bitching about UB>Next year will be more UB than anything elseWhen you, blatant retards, will shut up about UB?Isnt time to let it go? Doesnt matter how much you cry about "Pigs and Slop" UB isnt going anywhere...
>>96865951I didn't say the normal style is good, but this set's default style is worse and looks just cheap. Cartoony has worked well but in small doses before.
>>96866011>standard is going to get raped by an instant speed little girl for 2 yearsGod make it stop....
>>96866076Honestly? If I saw that art submitted to me as an art director I would immediately blacklist the person. Really makes you think about the type of person who works at WotC.
>>96866077>Why won't the fire go out when they keep adding fuel?
>>96866077>Isnt time to let it go?The simple answer is "No".They took a shit on the floor and haven't cleaned it up yet. I am holding out hope for a game mode that does not include UB, though I am currently not in a position to start such a format.
>>96866105>hope for a game mode that does not include UBpauper is largely free from it, although if they keep printing common legendaries for edh eventually some will end up good and take over.
>>96866136Cast Down will no longer be considered good removal.

just had an insane 20 minute Academy vs Academy mirror matchup to start off the Vintage Cubecame down to the last cards in our deck. we didn't know which one of us would die from damage, or deck out from passing a Coveted Jewel back and forth.this format is incredible

>>96866513nigga, you can't even get games off the ground in your discord. You need all the help you can get.
I have a confession, I actually don't belong in this thread, I only play Magic exclusively on Arena. I don't want to post on the Arena general because it is slower.>>96866366Now is a bad time to make a Standard deck. Wait until the bans in early November and see what's good afterwards. Also you could maybe ditch Standard and make a Brawl deck instead.
>>96866256>Black cheleader on "fantasy setting" on 60s British mansion I think that was the DEI art anon said.It makes no sense for saying Asian girl in asian setting is DEI art.

>>96866570Avatar is slop too. But at least it is good slop.FF and LotR were good Slop too.

Is anyone really excited for this slop?
>>96866877you are going to have to be more specific
>>96866877I'm excited for shrines/shrine support for my Go-shintai edh deck, and more monks for my monk tribal edh deck.May even be convinced to dip my toes back into standard for a casual shrine deck, but it'd likely be too slow in this Vivi world we live in.

>>96867183Because Red's gimmick is "weaker for cheaper", and "weaker" has left the building.
>>96867183Probably their market research showing that Mono R was the most popular deck in bo1 on Arena or mono R struggling in commander because the game wasn't created with the idea of having 3 opponents with 40 life each.

White needs a standard legal Celestial Moon to turn all non basics into Plains. Then grinder kikes can learn how it feels to not be able to play the game like White

>>96863957>WotC's name sense has been absolute shit lately, like Lander tokens and Warp, which guarantee those mechanics can never show up again outside of sci-fi when they could have went with Surveyor and Blink.warp could work on eldrazi creatures.
>>96867482What we need in Standard is pic related, Fatal Push, Dismember, Gitaxian Probe, Leyline Binding, instant cheap wraths like Settle… All sort of fast cheap answers, if we are getting eternal format level threats we should get eternal format answers.
>>96867554Warp is a pretty non-specific term admittedly. Anything to do with teleporting could do it too.
More spoilers
>>96867586unplayable slop
>>96867554They'll probably do what they did with websling and rename the mechanic if needed
>>96867586These are the scene cards and pretty much only Commander-relevant.
>>96867554Yeah warp is completely fine. Void was a bit off but I can still see it working. Landers are shit though, and they seem like they'd be a pretty flexible ability so idk why they made it that way other than the pun.
>>96867605only format matters to wizards

>>96867840I thinks it represents all the friends they made.
>>96867840>he thinks the text on the card is suppose to be flavorful in any way/shape/form in 2025OH NO NO NO NOYou are just supposed to print EPIC abilities on EPIC cards. Who cares if it fits a theme? The random hobo merchant can have base 5/5 stats and trample. Blue cards can just have 99% white card flavor. Why does a random card draw a card and make a token every time it attacks? uhhhhhh fuck you the ability is powerful and it slots into my commander deck okay????????
>>96867886Close enough, welcome back Hopeless Nightmare
Draft archetype leak.
>>96867900commander was a mistakeit's nothing but trash
>>96867921the funny thing is that edh players would agree with youthe common phrase used to be >wotc get your filthy hands off our shitty formatthere is really nothing worse than having shit printed straight into your non--rotating format. t. modern/edh player
>>96867942Modern has been utterly decimated by Modern Goyrizons.
>>96867900The couples scene cards seem to be the most blatant example of being designed as commanders.Mai and Zuko are the firebender comander.Aang & Katara the allies and waterbending commander.Toph gets better with commander.
>>96867909>leakthey are the exact same "draft archetypes" as in every set for the last five years
>>96867964IM PIG AND I EAT THE SLOPslop for the slop gods
>>96867942they could just ban it all instead they bow down to their transsexual/black pandering masters and eat the slop
>>96867964>card clearly made for commander retards>"duhhhhhhhhh whenever X do Y">"duhhhhhhhhh whenever A do B">commander fag feels like a genius for making a pile of 100 cards that mostly say "do X" and "do A"
>>96868001you can always thank rosewater and his extreme low iq for all these rehashes of "le doubling xdxdxd" design ethos he's been forcing for decades
>>96868007I can't remember what recent set I was looking at the spoilers for but I recall seeing at least 2-3 cards with a "doubling" effect. I was just thinking how lazy could you possibly be in designing these cards?
>>96868022in this case it's not lazy slop just really low intelligence slop
Allies have always sucked. Did they put them in this set so people would look back at Oath of the Gatewatch and Battle for Zendikar and think Magic has always sucked rather than being a post-WAR phenomenon?
>>96868032It's the friend creature type.
>>96867906Were you under the impression that the life drain was the most relevant part of Hopeless Nightmare?
>>96866877Not exactly excited but I have liked the overall design of the set from the little we've seen so far. This is also the first UB they do where I don't have any knowledge of the source material at all so it's the first one where I can look at the card mechanics from a completely unbiased standpoint.
>>96867964This will make shippers seetheSomehow they still can't let go after almost 20 years
>>96868309I think the Zutara shippers have basically given up.The real thing to make people flip out would be a hypothetical Naruto set showing Naruto and Hinata as a couple.
>5 more years of slop5 more years of slop>5 more years of slop5 more years of slop>5 more years of slop5 more years of slop>5 more years of slop5 more years of slop
>>96867909Seems decent. Not sure why everyone always complains about draft archetypes. Of course they're often similar, that's what the colors do, and it makes it easier for casual players to get into draft.
>>96868428No salvation.
>>96868428>5You're pretty optimistic anon
Anyone got the 4koma of the step-by-step instructions for picking up a girl before it ends with Fling?

>>96867886>the shrines are legendary>only trigger on etbit's dead jim
shit control decks in vintage cube are kind of exhausting to play
>>96867964>>96868309Weird fun fact: Zuko and Mai broke up in the sequel comics, and we don't know if they ever actually get back together. We know that Zuko had kids and grandkids though, so he must have fucked someone.
Are there YGO video makers who do longer videos with just commentary like mtg league videos? I'm tired of watching this game
>>96868826I think the comics did eventually have them get back together but it's almost sort of a 'bit' with them that they keep breaking up.
Do you think Meng will get card? She was cute.

>>96868923they can't otherwise mr. cocks will run out of money for his cockaine and rosewater will also starve to death
>>96868943Really though, what exactly do people want? There is only so much you can do with each of the colors in draft.
>>96868965>Really though, what exactly do people want?Good draft formats.>There is only so much you can do with each of the colors in draft.Why, then, must every set have the same formula? A formula that demands filling every color, every set?
>>96865058No but when they keyword bite they can make it that
>>96868989>Why, then, must every set have the same formulapigs gotta eatit's only hard to come up with different shit if you are a severe low ir moron like rosewater in a creeatively bankrupt company like hasbro90s magic cards were way more creative, in fact the whole standardizing of wording just made the game boring as hell and lacking in creativity
>>96868989What other formula is there? Unless the set is explicitly ally/ enemy factions or tricolour people are going to likely draft a 2 colour deck with whatever the best colours they can draft/ open. Why would you not support certain colour pairs unless it's a specific faction set as mentioned above
>>96869022>What other formula is there?>"Bro you shouldn't suck dick.">"Okay but if I stop sucking this dick, what other dicks are there?"the absolute state of brainlets
>>96869026No actual answer, cool then
>>96869038If you want answers, don't ask retarded questions.
Draft formats have only gotten better and better as time goes and it is literally delusional to say otherwise.
>>96868943>deliberately oversimplify things to fit in the mold>wtf why does everything fit in this mold?
>>96868989>A formula that demands filling every color, every set?Look at this retard who wants an entire 250 card set of nothing but pushed red cards for his cuckmander.Unironically kill yourself. People are going to draft, and if a set has roughly the same numbers of cards of each color, then players will default to playing the sweet spot between card selection and ability to play them- two colors a majority of the time. By giving each color pair an archetype (one that changes frequently even with repeats) it helps bend color pairs into strategies they normally don't do. If there were no color archetypes for drafting, then you'd end up seeing LESS original decks because each color would only ever do the same thing it always does.
>>96869076Please point to one (legitimate) oversimplification on that chart and I will fix it.

Noticed this while skipping thru a magic video showing spoilers, alt art of the little kid one they've been showing?
>>96869083Woe: R/G was power +4. W/B was enchantment sacrifice unique in that white didn't have sacrifice so you had to draft white enchantments and black sacrifice effects. G/U was MV+5 with one of its draft cards getting banned. R/W was celebration aggro.LCI: UB was Descent 4+. BR was descend. UR was also pirates.MKM: UB was clues sacrifice. BR was suspect. GW was weenie disguise. WB was the actual weenie deck. BG was cards leaving the graveyard. GU was collect evidence.BLB: RG was expend 4. WB was lifegain & life loss.DSK: UB was enchaments. BR was creature and enchament sacrifice. G/W was self tapping. R/W was weenie aggro.DFT BG was creatures and artifacts in graveyard. G/U was Exhaust.SPM: W/U was modify so it also counts counters. U/B was also villain tribal. GW was also spider tribal.TLA: G/U is 3 or more lessons in graveyard.
>>96869191it's been posted here already
>>96869205Here you go you whiny fagaloon. Basically nothing change.Thanks for the research. Remember, you did it for free.
>>96869254GW in DSK was survival, wtf is "Creatures"?
>>96869272Survival was not a mechanic.It's attacking with creatures. You attack with the creatures. That was the mechanic.
>>96869276Then why the fuck are you listing shit like "Aggro" as a mechanic, it's just attacking with creatures.
>>96869300Because that's how I do, nerd. Deal with it.
>>96869276Then why did you list LCI's tapping theme as tap? The survivors had a lot of ways to tap themselves to activate their effects without losing them in battle.
>>96869309I'm simply wondering if you actually ever played or even looked at those sets. DSK was by no means a great draft, but you're being disingenuous as fuck.
>>96869326>Then why did you list LCI's tapping theme as tap? Because it was. Survival was not a mechanic.>The survivors had a lot of ways to tap themselves to activate their effects without losing them in battle.Yeah they all sucked.
>>96869254>begs for help fixing his shitty chart>cries when he gets it
>>96869272>>96869276>>96869300The missing link is that it's somewhere between an aggro and a self-tap. You attack with your big things, you tap your small ones to make them bigger.
>>96869330>but you're being disingenuous as fuck.Boo hoo. Cry about it.
>>96869335The orphans was one of the best uncommons in the set.

>>96869399Cool story, bro.
>>96869069draft has been on life support since KTK with only enough exceptions to keep players in denial. the bonus sheet smothers the individuality of each set. every format feels the same. the speed and power of new cards removes the gameplay. at least half the matches are like facing mono red in standard. it suffers from the same one-card combo problem plaguing the rest of magic. it used to matter how you combined the cards but not anymore.

>>96868451>2030sOk, so a UB exclusionary format is definitely going to start gaining traction at some point
>>96869511It won't. They will stop printing in-universe sets or in-universe sets will start interacting with UBs at some point. Then you'll just be creating another Premodern, theoretically interesting format but will never have widespread interest because it doesn't get new products printed.
