Did ECL perform well enough to keep UW alive?
>>97551869UW is underpowered and UB overpowered by design.
>>97551869It was the fastest selling set.
> TQThis and tetramorphic expanse where the best color fixing when I started playing.
>Izzet lessons, dimir midrange and Superior Spider-Man now dominate the meta>If anything from them gets banned, either little will change or Badgermole Cub will come back for the throneThings are starting to look a lot like the way they did back when standard was "flourishing".>>97551842>TQI'm so glad this exists. Even if insects don't do much of anything in standard, I can always brew with this and/or Gene Pollinator in older formats.
>>97551842>What is your favorite ramp card?Goes in every deck I can legally put it in>>97551869Apparently yes, WOTC admitted it was a success. This must be frustrating for them.

>>97551842>What is your favorite ramp card?Turn 1 Boomerang on the draw will never not be the best feeling in MTG.
>>97552002Thats the noob version
this game is slowly dying... and by this game i mean magic, edh is rising as a phoenix.
Until real Commander is on Arena it is not a serious format
>>97552570It's the only format. There's a reason everyone says "Commander" and "60-card formats".
I only just found out the ECL survey went out last week when I was doing jury duty. Really wanted to tell them my favorite parts of the set, even if they probably wouldn't have given a shit.I also just found out about 17lands recently, and apparently all my favorite commons and uncommons from the set are C or lower, but I guess that makes sense when most of them have little to no synergy with the tribes.
>>97552576Did you get to put a nigger in prison?
>>97552626I waited around for three days just to be told they didn't need any more jurors.
blogboy i wish i bought a single collector boosters pack first to gauge instead of a whole box. why the fuck are these so expensive when over half the cards are common/lands/tokens and the other majority is still uncommons? i am the dumbest gorilla monkey retard and i didn't get anything i wanted/blog
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uv0tqTk_FO8this video made me want to pick up modern hammer again, it's been so long
>>97552777That's their business model, anon.
>>97552777CheckedYou're supposed to buy a box. Check the packs for hits. Reseal the harvested packs. Wait a decade. Sell sealed product at inflated Price.
>>97552777lmao you could've watched literally any youtube unboxing and learned that lesson.
>>97552783They should just push back pioneer all the way to M10 and ban the enemy fetches. It's insane to me that they didn't even include Innistrad block.
If MTGO wasn't skull fuckingly ugly I would download it just for all the good it has over Arena. Yet, Arena can be played on my phone on the toilet, so it is a clear victor.
>>97552918Just realize this post probably didn't make much sense. My point is there's no reason why cards like Puresteel Paladin shouldn't be legal in pioneer.
Whats the strongest, most braindead deck I can take to modern FNM? Just need something that consistently plows through a meta of Jeskai Blink and Goryo's reanimator because thats the only format that fires off consistently in a nearby LGS
>Tq
>>97551842>>TQ
>>97551842>tqI just think it's neat!
>>97552449>being such an assblasted faggot you legitimately think people are shilling a format to sell $0.15 proxies
what card do you think best embodies each of the 5 colors. not the strongest, but the card that explains the philosophy of the colorfor me its white - swords to plowsharesblack - necropotencered - lightning boltblue - counterspellgreen - llanowar elves
>>97553745noone asked
>>97553745counterspell still being playable after all these years is so crazy just like lightning bolt and swords.
>>97552777>oy i wish i bought a single collector boosters pack first to gauge instead of a whole box.IMAGINE be so suctioned onto WotC's Teat that your first thought after they scam you is "I wish I only got scammed a little!" instead of "I'm never doing that again."The absolute fucking state of consumers.
Reminder that the line between unregulated gambling and randomized game products is whether or not people sit down to play the game with the randomized packs.Collector Boosters are LITERALLY illegal, they are LITERALLY against the law and LITERALLY make WotC an unlicensed gambling house.People should report them.
Magic the Gathering is COOKED.
>>97553943>Magic the Gathering is COOKED.Sauteed. Deep fried. Broiled. Baked. Torched. Sous vied (with a hole in the bag). Grilled. Blanched. Flambed. Pickled. Roasted. The list goes on.
Any of you fags playing modern? What are some fun decks? No combo fuckery pls.
>>97553745White- It prevents your opponent from attacking as long as your soldiers are untapped.Blue- The more knowledge you gain the more powerful a creature becomes.Black- You draw when either players creature dies.Red- When you attack you get more freedom.Green- Your lands automatically untapped once played.
>>97554103>Blue>fucking Proft'sAh yes, blue. Famous for its hyper aggressive aggro, dominant early board presence and efficient creature buffs.You are retarded.
>>97554103>yes, i started playing 2years ago and bring my redditor unbearable opinions with me, how could you tell?

>>97554190Friendly reminder that jews of the coast changed the flavor text on this card because redditors who don't play this game and very often even hate it and only pretend for clout started tattooing the orzhov signet on their bodies like the goyim slaves that they are.

We need to somehow convince WotC that Gay Bolas is intrinsically tied to the health of a 60-card format. Preferably Legacy.
>>97554565why does she look like a smug cunt instead of comfy and benevolent
>>97554851>We need to somehow convince WotC that Gay Bolas is intrinsically tied to the health of a 60-card format. Preferably Legacy.Legacy?More like Gay Bolussy xD
>>97553745>what card do you think best embodies each of the 5 colorsthat's a difficult question... I don't think I could choose a single card for each...white - Glorious Anthem (equity, balance, and wide board presence)blue - Preordain (insight, knowledge, and card advantage via drawing)black - Dark Confidant ("Greatness, at any cost" the flavour says it all)red - Lightning Bolt (straightforward, impulsive, direct damage)green - Giant Growth (Timmy likes big creatures!)
>>97553745My picks.
The problem with UB is that you eventually run out of good franchises, so what then, Return to Final Fantasy?
>>97554965Final Fantasy again but this time it's not fucking shit and they print Paine.
>>97554965Of course, we're already getting Return to Lord of the Rings.
>>97554859Please understand all female characters must now girlboss and be arrogant while laughing in the “Nyohohoho~” pose
>>97554821what went so wrong? where they failed?
>>97554988>what went so wrong?All of it.>where they failed?Yes. It went wrong where they failed, which is in every aspect.
When the color pie dies, so does the game. This is the future you chose.
>>97554769>>97554821The namefag that makes them had his youtube posted so he's laying low for a while.
Whiteschixo?More like RIGHTschizo.
>>97554988One picture is worth a thousand words...
>>97555320>make it look bad on purposeI hate new things
>>97555187Here is my favorite white card. The more I look at him the more I am convinced he doesn't have legs.
>>97555417His legs are the horse, anon.
>>97555431sure
>>97555187The color pie mandates white be shit, sorry.
>>97555187>color pieHas been dead for a long time. When was the last time you saw a black suicide deck in standard? White weenie? Either of those in any significant portion of the format? Those two decks are quite important to the identities of either color and yet they're nowhere to be found. Suicide has pretty much been pretty much killed off entirely by MTG card design in the last 15 years with all the lifelink spam in both white and black in addition to the grand excess of cards that gain life in addition to their effects. White weenie itself has barely been anything close to viable in the last few years. And then every other creature in every color has been some variant on Quirion dryad at least for the last decade. Every color is getting some affinity variant (whether or not it's called affinity). Every color can do anything as long as you give it the right drawback. And then you find out that Izzet is yet again the strongest deck in the format.
>>97555444>nosewater and Gavin Kikey mandateFire design equality is a TALL ASK apparently
>>97555574>Every color can do anything as long as you give it the right drawback. White can’t win the game.
>>97555583But white winning the game would be racist!!
>>97555589How? Every mono white “human” card is a nigger or beaner now
>>97555711Stop asking questions goy.
>>97555583In Avatar every other white card had draw.
>>97555583Green has 0 removal. Cry harder.
>>97555756Green has turn 3 Craterhoof in StandardEat shit covered shekels kike
>>97555756>Green has 0 removal.Partially correct, but not really correct.
The reason Green has no removal is because it has the biggest threats.>Blue, red and black now have bigger threats than Green.Green should get removal now.
>>97555863>>Blue, red and black now have bigger threats than Green.>Green should get removal now.Green still technically gets the biggest threats, the problem is that most cards rely on etbs more than they rely on sheer power and toughness. Black has also struggled to maintain relevance now that bounce spells, damage spells and counter spells just do everything kill spells effectively accomplish and way more. I brought it up back when the hybrid mana commander topic was going around, but if WotC doesn't wanna go back to pre-FIRE levels of creature design, they're probably gonna have to start making counter spells outside of blue so that other colors have answers to cards that only care about etb or death triggers.
>>97555911>Green still technically gets the biggest threatsNo it fucking doesn't.No green body is bigger than what Proft's makes.
>>97555919I get what you mean, but that doesn't count.
>>97555931>but that doesn't count.It literally is the only thing that counts.What matters is stats on the board, not how you got there.
>>97555911>Green still technically gets the biggest threatslolthis nigga never heard of EldraziGreen is the "ramp for the colors that actually do things" colors and has been since Rise
>>97555835You're not even white.
>>97555985You’re not even human, kike
>>97555963>It literally is the only thing that counts.Even if it did count, they banned it in standard. Clearly giving blue such an easy-to-maintain growth card was a mistake.>What matters is stats on the board, not how you got there.Well when you put it like that...>>97555972When was the last time Eldrazi got printed in standard, Anon (EoE and Foundations don't count)? Even outside standard, they still heavily rely on green and/or their own fake color.
>>97556021>Well when you put it like that...I have never seen an Ouroboroid grow larger than what Proft produced.Ouroboroid is a white card, not a green card.
>>97556021>When was the last time Eldrazi got printed in standard, Anon (EoE and Foundations don't count)? Even outside standard, they still heavily rely on green and/or their own fake color.No it was a mono white deck.
>Every Eldrazi deck in modern has been mono green or GruulWhat did schizo kikes mean by this?
>>97556028>Ouroboroid is a white card, not a green card.Tell that to Gavin Kikey, who’s been giving every nonwhite color free +1 counter mechanics (yes even Grixis colors like Profts, Mako and that Avatar pursuit enchantment).I told you all that the kikes were on a mission to strip white of everything in its color identity, but nobody cared.
>>97556038>>97556049Eldrazi hasn't cared about white since MH3, get with the times.
>>97556058FUCKING SERIOUSLY thoug,Ouroburoid, a card designed to buff WIDE boards with +1/+1 COUNTERS is WHITE-aligned.
>4 mana 1/3Yeah that's a white card.
>>97556074FACTS.
>>97556070JOTC saw the card Basri’s Solidarity and said “Oy vey that belongs in every color now”
>There was a point where I was disgusted at every trigger moving from Upkeep to EOT, shortening the window to answer problem cards.>That was barely a year ago.>We're ALREADY at the point where every single fucking trigger is at the start of combat, making the window EVEN SMALLER and forcing reactions to precombat, leaving postcombat mains open.They literally just don't even have the remotest of concerns for balance or preventing power creep. WotC's attitude is literally just "Fuck it, break the game."
>>97556093wait till you hear about ENTERS
>>97556109Enters only happens once.But yes, I would live "When ~ enters and at the beginning of combat on your turn..." to be implemented.
>>97556069Standard was white.
>>97556117>colorless cards>artifacts>energy lands>black dip>colorless utility landsNot white
>>97556115they have already started implementing "if it was cast" clauses because the etbs are too strong and cheap to cheat in so I'd say some etb creatures must be countered even before moving to next phase
>>97556117>Standard was white.>Even outside standard,
>>97556117NOOOOOOOOOOOUNLESS IT'S MONO WHITE HUMAN TRIBAL WITH ONLY HETEROSEXUAL CAUCASIAN MEN ON THE ART IT IS FAKE WHITE!!!!!
>>97556011I like how Whiteschizo doesn't even pretend to be white ever since he accidentally revealed he's a towelhead. Li'l muzzie dude at least owns his heritage.
>>97556115>Enters only happens once.Oh man, if only.
>>97556117>concealed courtyardwow I wonder why the deck ran those instead of plains
>>97556163>they have already started implementing "if it was cast" clauses because the etbs are too strong and cheap to cheat inSYKE
>>97556117>Cast Out>more proof that White already had Flash>Gavin Kikey presenting himself as some brilliant innovator proclaiming “OyVey we’re going to START giving white Flash!”Why does nobody (except me) ever call him out on his kikety lies?
>>97556185>Why does nobody (except me) ever call him out on his kikety lies?Most of his sins are directly related to commander, and you're not allowed to talk about that here.

>TQUro and his dick suckin lips
>we live in a time line where "once per game" clauses are all but inevitable grim
>>97556621>Implying WotC would willingly restrict a card like that
>>97556621epic spells are pratically "once per game" since you don't get to cast anything else
>>97556759Okay, this is epic

>>97556868That's just Monstrous with extra steps.
>>97556959WotC had a design document where they said most Exhaust abilities put counters on cards because they didn't trust players to remember otherwise
>spend days researching and assembling a deck>try it out>get stomped by some retard that put zero thought into his deck and is simply using a meta deck he found onlineWow, epic game!
>>97556868>>97556959I honestly can't fucking believe that they made a keyword so open and opted to literally just make it Monstrous by having almost every activation add +1/+1 counters like wow great job guys, visionary design holy fuck.
>>97556981Post deckYou won't
>>97556993Idk, I haven't played in a couple years, but that's why I quit, because I like all the mechanics and interactions and builds and stuff, but the fact that metas exist is what ruins it for me
>>97556981Brewing just isn't worth it anymore.Brews used to be able to at least compete. I was usually happy with a ~35-45% winrate for shitbrews.The game has just degenerated to the point where regular brews or jank have no chance. You simply can't play the game fairly anymore. The thing that lets brews thrive is for them to have time to do their thing. We're in a meta now where control decks in Standard are killing you on turn 4, there's simply no room for interesting gameplay.
See, that's the difference between you and I; when I say how shit this game is, I mean it. I experience it. I live it. You niggas are just trying to fit in.
>>97557007Yeah, exactly
>>97555415in fariness, the turtles canonically eat horrific pizza toppingsnot saying there should be pizza lands or a turtles UB set or any of this shit, but when there IS one, the turtles order a nightmarish pizza every episode like>hey can we get an extra large double pepperoni double marshmallow pizza with medlar jam drizzle and a gochujang vegan chiiz stuffed crust?

>>97557103>How do you respond?I take my dick out and start pissing on everybody, security comes into the room and try to stop me, but I'm too fucking fast so I piss on them too.

>>97558229The theme of Duskmourn is "Enchantments matter"
>>97557626Two block was the solved ideal of set blocks it was enough world building without a too much filler
>>97558236but that doesn't actually match the theme of the set
>>97558244You are retarded. Between all the enchantment creatures and eerie mechanic, it was enchantment set.
>>97558263You are retarded. How is a room an enchantment rather than a land or artifact?
Front Door 1WArtifact - RoomWhen this enters attach it to a land.When this enters or becomes tapped, choose a creature. That creature gets +0/+4 for as long as this land is untapped.
>>97558265Because they are not normal rooms.
>>97558265The same way a castle is an enchantment.
>>97558319it shouldn't be thoughbeit

I don't play legendary creatures, no.

>>97553822i like opening packs i just expected there to be some reason these packs were 4 times as expensive. yeah getting scammed for 30 dollars as opposed to 400 would be quite considerablebut you are still right anyways. i have only ever bought boosters for 2 sets in the last 4 years so i don't feel that bad, but still
>>97558319Should've been a fortification.>>97558459>Sneak U; Draw two cards.Even in the perfect scenario, this is miles worse than most of the shit in standard. Poor Donnie...
>>97558459Imagine if we had this for the hopeless nightmare deck, would've been silly. Honestly still might be somewhere, it's still an easy 1 mana draw 2 with an ornithopter or 2 mana draw 2 with a tamiyo.
>>97558265How is food an artifact?
>>97558755because wotc is full of flavor-hating kikes
>>97558755It's very, very stale
>>97551842Anybody hyped for the turtles set? Feels like pretty low effort so far. Might do 2-3 drafts and then wait for strix.
>>97558755I hate this too (especially ygra which turns creatures into artifacts)
>>97558880he turns them into fossilized poo
I went 1+bye-3 with Medvedev's sligh list today0-2 U ZI0-2 Survival ElvesBye1-2 Stiflenought - Would have won 2-1 but I drew nothing for 5 or 6 turns in a row in game 32-1 UG Madness - Game 3 was a 1 lander carried by Black Vise; I never drew a second landIt did feel enjoyable to play, but there are changes I would make for my local, diverse meta. I felt like PoP did nothing and I had too many sideboard cards for Dreadnought. I was able to remove 2 Dreadnoughts in game 3, but probably diluted my burn plan too much with how I boarded. I think I kept some bad hands as well that I should've mulled instead.Full metaPyrostatic SlighhFEBElvesUG MadnessReplenishStiflenought UB Zombie Infestation MoneyballPit rack/PoxRG Oath PonzaUW humility control (winner)
>>97558910why not Ankh of Mishra?
>>97558980I would imagine it's too slow. Turn 1 Vise is usually 3-6 damage, whereas Ankh can be ignored by quite a few decks, the exception maybe being slow control or Turbo Land. Great art though.
My meme pauper deck went 1-2 tonight.
>>97558910>4 Blood Oath and 2 City of Traitors>4 Mogg Salvage and 3 OverloadAbsolutely buck broken by Enchantress gods and Stiflenought chads. Interesting for a Sligh list but it looks like you're giving up a lot of match ups just to somewhat help on Dreadnought and Enchantress. Reeks of MTGO grinder, the gaps in that sideboard are pretty fucking heinous.
member Battle? I member
>>97558607>i like opening packsTotal consumerist nihilism.Control yourself, Odysseus.
>>97559187Actual meme or post-2019 FIRE soup?
>>97559302This model is like this, bunch of sets and mechanics and thematics we never touch again. Battles, Rooms, Start your Engines! , Offspring...
>>97551842More like two ramp cards.I just find it amusing how these two mostly unrelated cards fit together mechanically and thematically.
>>97558459Who is the faerie making fun of the turtle. Did Q break containment to troll the turtles. It's hard to imagine a one mana draw 2 not seeing play when you could bounce spyglass siren or floodpits drowner
>>97558717>Even in the perfect scenario, this is miles worse than most of the shit in standard.Intended to be in the same format as Esper Pixies, btw.
>>97552334Premodern pisses me offI'll never afford to play it cause every fucking deck has some $500 card as a mandatory 4-ofOnly thing the format's existence does is make the old frames that I prefer cost moreWorst of all worlds
>>97559582premodern is the only true magic format left.
>>97558878the only thing I'm hyped for is for them to release the 2027 schedule because strixhaven isn't my thing and reality fractured doesn't seem appealing everything else is just UB slop
>>97558265Because they're representing magic rooms created by an evil demon fused with an eternal hell plane
>>97558302They are literally normal rooms.
>>97559663>Because they're representing magic rooms created by an evil demon fused with an eternal hell planeThat's what a land is, anon.A location of magic.God the amounts of retard juice people guzzle just to run cover for the soulless corporate husk that is WorC is INSANE.Rooms are fucking garbage. It's one of the shitties mechanics ever designed. As clunky and mechanically-broken as Mutate, easily the shittiest flavor of ANY mechanic, and the only ones that saw play are because they were broken ass generic spells and not anything to do with the mechanic itself. TOTAL design failure.
>>97559679Not all magic locations are lands, because you can't have 200 fucking lands in a set. There is literally nothing wrong with Rooms. They play literally fine, they represent "magic places" in an enchantment-focused set, and the flavor is also fine. You don't know what you're talking about, there is zero similarity with Mutate beyond "weird frame." Fuck off.
>>97559698Hell, there is an entire enchantment subtype specifically used for "magic location" that has existed for years on multiple sets
Bring back Lantern control.
Bring back the arena general :(
Most broken card type in history (artifact) VS most broken card type of today (creature)Who wins?
Remember goyim, better removal is a tall ask.
>>97560608>Who wins?Lurrus.
>>97560689Does Lurrus win with no artifacts?
>>975606931 copy of Lurrus always beats 1 copy of Academy.
>>97560704Okay but how does it work with no banned/restricted list aside from no artifacts in Lurrus and no creatures in Academy?
>>97560608Lurrus can bring back artifacts or creaturesAcademy only benefits from artifactsLurrus wins
What creatures would benefit most if they were 6/6 tramplers? Been having fun building around this swampy dude.
>>97560540You're allowed to make it.
>>97560708Lurrus is the most powerful card ever printed.Academy BARELY challenges Lurrus post-errata.What matters is how much a single card impacts winrate. The consistency of Companion (Seen 100% of games) means a Companion is better than literally every other card. Lurrus wins. No other card is in the same tier of power as Lurrus. No other card is within five tiers of power, in fact.
>>97560727this twink
>>97560727wrong thread but I like Brokkos so I'll allow it
>>97559582you were told to buy in 5 years ago when basically every deck except stiflenought was still under $100
>>97560740Hmm yes I see
>>97560740>>97560608Academy literally wins before Lurrus ever becomes relevant. It vastly outstrips literally any other land in this game. It's restricted in Vintage- Lurrus is not even close.
>>97560890>It's restricted in Vintage- Lurrus is not even close.Lurrus is banned in Vintage, anon.Lurrus is the only card that is banned in Vintage.
>>97560608we just play them together in PO https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/7630771#online
>>97560742>>97560756Very nice anons thank you, my Dad will struggle against these for sure. Sorry to use the wrong thread
>>97560908>Lurrus is banned in Vintage, anon.Anon it has been 5 years that Lurrus was unbanned in Vintage.
>>97559035What about turn 1 Ankh via City of Trators/Acient Tomb?Pros:- Ank also absolute rapes heavy fetch decks. 1 single fetch creacked = 5 damage - Colorless damage- Great against Stasis, Gush, Lairs, Tangle wireCons:- Artifact- Awful top deckOverall, would consider 4 Ankh over 4 Flame Rift.
>>97560918>singleton hexing squelcherabsolutely devilish, I bet nobody expects it
>>97560944>Anon it has been 5 years that Lurrus was unbanned in Vintage.Lurrus was never unbanned in vintage.Punished Lurrus was sent to the shadow realm then they unbanned (incorrectly) Not! Lurrus.
What do I do with this card in Pioneer?
>>97560984Attempt to play it and lose to Annex and Lessons.
>>97560908I don't think you understand how fucking powerful academy is. Turn 1 wins were a regular ocurrence with it when it was originally released, with the card pool of decades ago. If it is a valid 4-of and you can reliably get it in your opening hand, whoever goes first wins. Simple as that.
>>97561007>I don't think you understand how fucking powerful academy is.Ok boomer.
>>97561007>Turn 1 wins were a regular ocurrence with it when it was originally released,During its entire time legal in "Standard", a turn 1 win with Academy happened two (2) times across all tournaments.Academy's turn 1 winrate is literally 0.02%.
>>97561019and now what is lurrus's turn 1 win rate?
>>97561047>and now what is lurrus's turn 1 win rate?Literally who fucking cares. Lurrus wins almost every game eventually. I'd rather have a 100% winrate than a 1% turn 1 winrate.
>>97560984my first idea is extra turns, you play blue creatures that dig for both schemes and extra turns so you can copy them, get some blue ramp spells like growth spiral and some removal, put all of that together and you should have a pile of card you can sculpt into a proper deck
>people still crying about lurrusHoly shit you're all so bad. Lurrus was never broken.
>>97561056>Literally who fucking cares. Lurrus wins almost every game eventually.if this is the case why are monowhite Raker and monowhite initiative, two decks that don't run Lurrus, t1 in Vintage right now?
>>97561083>Lurrus was never broken.Hi Mark.
>>97561092>if this is the case why are monowhite Raker and monowhite initiative, two decks that don't run Lurrus, t1 in Vintage right now?t. Person with small brain who can't understand the meaning of the word "almost"
>>97561093This is probably the most autistic type of response "people" give on this entire website.
>>97561103"Almost all" would mean "almost all." If it has to share significant space in tier 1 then it's not winning almost all games nigga. It's like saying Terror is winning "almost all" games in Pauper. It demonstrably isn't.
>>97561123>If it has to share significant space in tier 1 then it's not winning almost all gamesInitiative is 10% of the meta.Lurrus is 50% of the meta.These are not the same.
>>97561149No the fuck it isn't. The Lurrus share is 30% at most, divided across several different archetypes and decks. A single initiative archetype is 12%. Christ you people are dumb.
>>97561169>The Lurrus share is 30% at most>#1 - Lurrus of the Dream-Den - 41%
>>97561176source?
>>97561186The internet, idiot.
best sets for chaos draft?I was going to limit myself to 1 masters pack, was thinking ultimate
>>97561208You gotta get at least one Exodus pack in there.
>>97561208>best sets for chaos draft?5th Dawn fucks in chaos draft.
>>97560608Lurrus wins because she gets to be the eighth card. Tolarian academy has more mana production, but Lurres is an auto include in any decks that fits the companion restriction. I just wish they would stop giving things more than two eyes without changing other anatomy. Lurrus has no room for a frontal lobe because she has an extra set of eyes in that space.
Punished Lurrus is the most powerful card ever printed in any card game that isn't named Budew.

>Cunts are running those stupid new elementals>Deceit is pure aids that both fuck your hand and remove a threat>Can pump elemental mana in the elemental deck to cast it easy>Can cheat it out for it's evoke cost and use the bw spider to still get it's bullshit effects offPure fucking aids.
>>97561573>>Can cheat it out for it's evoke cost and use the bw spider to still get it's bullshit effects offThe spider doesn't get its effects off. It can't do that. What are you talking about? The Elementals only get their effects if cast and they are all mana value 4+ so they can't be cheated with Emptiness period.
>>97561591Somebody told me that's how it's worked after I ranted about having to deal with Deceit in an ele deck. I will have to yell at them for making me look silly.
>>97561591You get both abilities. Use two blue and two black to cast the spiderman. It enters as a copy of the elemental. The elemental checks what mana color was spent to cast it. The elemental and spider are the same card. It doesn't have the space to get both etb's off of the blue and green elemental.
>>97561654Well that doesn't sound like much. You're spending 4 mana to cast a 6 mana card...
>>97556781not the same anon , but I feel like epic spells have more space around modern magic desing space than at the time they were made.I wonder when are they gonna come back.
>>97561754That’s literally how Excruciator won the PT, surveiling it into the bin and casting Spiderfag turn 4 to exile their deck
>>97555320why not actually based the lands in the interesting locations that are in the tenage mutant universe.why lazy pizzas? , isn't this going against the point of a crosoverwhat if I want to onions after playing my blue basic brain mech dimention card or whatever.
>>97557125>>97557103then you get promoted.
>>97557874I've been playing Doran, Besieged by Time in EDH and my sloth boy gets his revenge most of the time

>>97561983Hopefully never. "What if you couldn't cast any spells but this one ever again" is fundamentally a terrible idea

why does everybody sideboard sear instead of broadside barragethe 1 extra damage kills a lot of stuff and the loot effect is also useful, is it really worth the 1 less cost?

posted this in the arena thread but reposting here since it's probably more visibleI'm returning to arena after years away, do I still have to spend all my gold on drafts to actually collect cards at a reasonable rateI fucking hate limited, nothing about it is fun at all and that's part of why I stopped playing when I did. spending gold on packs was a total waste and you were pretty much forced to funnel gold to the strong draft players if you ever wanted to collect cardsI had enough wcs saved up to immediately build a standard viable deck and I've been having tons of fun playing it for my 4 wins/day and I can build budget meme decks if I want to play more in a day but get bored with my main deck
