Because wheels exist and just ruin the game with a guy like leovold out.
That said, they COULD fix it with a card that said something like "If an opponent would draw one of more cards, if it osn't their draw step, they draw that many cards minus one instead.". So it wouldn't hit wheels, it wouldn't affect draw steps, and it wouldn't stop splashy draw spells, but it would destroy draw engines.

Pretty much finished my Rat Colony deck using Ziatora, the Incinerator as the commander primarily for access to green and the sac outlet. I’ve just realised that I didn’t pop in any lifelink that I could put onto the commander to benefit more from the end step trigger but idk I feel like Ziatora more so supports the 99 instead of needing the 99 to support it and that it doesn’t matter if I even cast it or not. What do you guys think? Try to shoehorn in a Basilisk Collar or something?

Anti-draw effects are NOT overpowered but they can create alot of feel-bads for lower power tables when little timmy can't draw from his Garruk's Uprising or randomly getting his hand blown up by a Wheel effect hitting the stack.

Not much incentive for WotC to print more of them since they are simultaneously too weak for higher power tables while also being too toxic for lower power tables.

Put all cards on the battlefield into the graveyard. Put all cards in the graveyard into exile. Put all cards in exile into their owner's hands. Put all cards in each player's hands onto the battlefield.

5UB minimum, and this level of cards from exile returning to play is something they try to avoid. Maybe reverse it so exile goes to graveyard etc

Neat idea
>>
>>98329735
Building aggro without any interaction is begging on the side of the game: "please, please players, kingmake me!"

By all means do it, and encourage your friends to do it; it's going to win me so many more games to know that if I have the other players dead to rights you literally can do nothing to stop me.

ff has not nearly begun to scrape any kind of barrel, look at how many cards are named "Black Widow" or the 9,001 permutations of "Character 1, Character 2, Character 1 AND Character 2" in TMNT if you want to see what scraping the barrel looks like. even Avatar had more reuse. the marvel release had, in total, 653 new cards, that's more than the entire Return to Ravnica block

by the (low) standards established by Marvel and TMNT, they could genuinely make an entire standard set using just ff14, or just ff7r for that matter which I'm sure the bigwigs at Square Enix would love

Ryne and Gaia just had art in a rename, no Vauthry card, you could do one for Runar and Chai N'uzz. Shit, could do one for Varis, one for ShB Gaius, the Werlyt weapon crew.

Yeah it wasn't a scam, it was just that i paid a hundred euros for a "NM" card and it was EX at best, particularly the minor stain on the black border right over the portrait annoys me.
I could forgive that tho, but the seller also didn't bother providing a tracking number even after i asked him to, and he shipped the card in a thin letter with just a toploader and single sleeve.
All individually not that big of a deal but together it really pissed me off.

whats the difference between KMC hyper mat and hyper phoenix, the current stock as of 2026? Not much for recent reviews the past year or less

on that grail hunt for sleeves. So far the new stock ultra pro eclipse mattes are the best IME (the 105 count in a black box with crescent moon cutout). Katana being the next best and Dragon Shield Mattes absolute dog shit.

Since May I've bought 2 packs of Katanas with 1 split between those two (0 extras), 2 packs of Eclipse with 0 splits (and 8 extra sleeves in each pack, making then 108 count) and 1 pack of Dragon Shields (with 1 extra in the pack) with 9 splits.

>it's fine for them to do the same stuff I hate them doing in Marvel when it's an IP I like
Not what I said! I actually *don't* want them to do another FF set. Ever.
I'm just pointing out that there's still plenty of meat left on the bone for WotC to, metaphorically, gnaw on. Not by my standards, mind you. But by the standards that they've established with the last few UB sets? Definitely.
LTR was the best-selling set of all time, and we're getting HOB next month. If that pattern repeats, then FIN, which broke LTR's sales record, could be followed up by a "VII" or "XIV" next year. Again I'm not endorsing it I'm just saying this idea that they're out of FF crap to adapt is totally wrong

You can't determine if a deck is bracket 1 based on just the hard listed criteria, you could build a very strong, optimized deck that's technically within those criteria but obviously goes against what the bracket actually is about.
Generally, most casual decks are gonna be a 2. Even if they include some gamechangers they're mostly still more appropriate for 2 tables, 3 is for fairly powerful decks that just have a few limitations.

Besides Hive Mind, are there any cards that can force a player, or myself, to cast a copy of a given instant/sorcery spell?
Preferably I'm looking for something like Panoptic Mirror, except with the imprint ability not being an optional cast. I didn't necessarily care if it only forces the controller to cast it since the deck I'm brewing has exchange effects, I just care that it's not a "may."

Typically no, because there's a lot of situations you might give someone a spell they legally can't cast (even Hive Mind operates under the assumption spells copied with it can start with illegal targets and fizzle). However, that being said, it's not impossible, with this one being the most notable example where you demonstrate Pact of the Titan and make someone instalose unless they can make {R}.

I know I have zero credibility without posting proof that will get me fired and blacklisted, but the answer is unironically that the story coordinator forgot to give him anything relevant to do after Tarkir. This happens super often which is why characters keep dropping off the face of the earth for years at a time unless they're named "Jace" or "Chandra". It's not actually a response to anything. It's literally "i forgor" because the one person in charge of directing the story has zero professional writing experience.

Trying to synthesize the idea of a birthing pod/Enigmatic Incarnation deck with the saga creatures. But I'm unsure who would be the most satisfying to run it with.
>Falco Spara gives you the right colors and keeps your summons alive
But podding out of the creatures actually comes with a real cost in losing them
>Terra, Magical Adept gives you a clone effect on her other side
But she's 5c slop and liable to be killed on sight
>Brenard, Ginger Sculptor gives you a second use of the enchantment creature in question
But his effect exiles so it's basically a one-off effect and then the creature is gone.
>Ellie and Alan, Paleontologists lets you cheat the steep initial costs by exiling a high-mana creature from the get
But they're costly at 5 mana and don't do anything when they come out.
>The Sixth Doctor + Romana II gets you massive value out of your guys, and token copies are ideal for podding
But they're both expensive as fuck so the setup is extremely slow.

Anyone else got any ideas? I'm kind of leaning toward Ellie and Alan, though I'm amenable to moving toward other colors besides Bant as well. The only real requisites are Saga Creatures + Pod effects, so simic at minimum.

I'm sad to see how poorly this game is doing. I've been playing edh for 15 years, posting in this thread almost daily and it's with a sad heart that I have to admit the game is dying. Maybe not MTG overall, arena will still do well but this shit is unbearably bad. Last LGS I went to had 2 players when normally they have 10 or so on edh nights and both of the 2 that bothered to show up were brand new players that didn't seem as interested in learning how the stack works as they were in showing off their precon decks.

Depends on what you traded it at. I find listings at 70% pretty commonly on marketplace, as long as you stuck around there I wouldn't mind. If he got your ass at like 60% or lower I wouldn't trade in there anymore. He's the owner so he can do what he wants, but the expectation is that you're trading at something low because they're taking on the risk of moving it.

The webp lets them display smaller filesize images that load faster for better search engine optimization.
It's all back-end bullshit pushed by Google that makes things worse on the user side. But at least the Scryfall devs had the wherewithal to give you a button that lets you download a high-quality image. Most site that have switched to webp faggotry don't do that.

We need more condition dependent 0 cost interaction cards. There's way too many value engines and redundancy now. Interaction that's not stapled onto an etb effect or repeatable is rapidly becoming outpaced by must answer cards. Committing 10-20% of your deck to one shot interaction just sets you back unless you build comboslop with nothing but interaction and tutors to draw your wincon.

Since I finally convinced my group to get into the business of upgrading precons or thinking about new decks to build themselves, I got to work on an idea I had a while ago.
It's a cheapish vehicles deck with the idea of ramping and drawing to play a lot of vehicles, then finding a Mechtitan Core, copy it a few times and be able to keep making Mechtitans with the token copies, keeping the original intact.
But after testing it a few times before committing to build it I kept wondering: will vehicles be too oppressive for a casual table?
Neither of them has played Magic for very long so I don't think they'll know what to target, how to defend against it or have enough artifact removal. Vehicles dodge most conventional boardwipes too. I worry that they'll think it's unfair.
Am I overthinking?

They were killed offscreen which in WotC terms means "We didn't want to make cards for them this specific set because we wanted to focus on the new spirit dragons."
If it's not on a card, it didn't happen, and even then, half the time it didn't happen. Take NDE for example where it shows Gideon killing Emrakul when in the actual story Emrakul just decided to fuck off after meeting Jace and realizing that people don't like getting their mana sucked out because it kills them.

That's not how it works. Review the CR. 601.2a states that the first step is saying you're going to cast a spell, then you choose targets at 601.2c. However the spell isn't locked in as cast and irreversible until 601.2i (this is specifically why the Selvala/Panglacial Wurm interaction is a problem). 733.1 indicates that the correct course of action is to reverse the casting.

>>98336019
The existence of legal targets does not retroactively make his chosen targets legal. The moment he says "Can I choose this one?" and the answer is "No" his cast attempt was illegal and there's a rewind. Section 733 at no point makes any mention of trying to repair the gamestate through any method but a rewind. You can not compel a player to take an action simply because it's legal. The format you're thinking is Judge Tower.

attack trigger doublers aplenty, in this day and age. I exile 12 cards, two of which are extra turns and two of which are copy spells. I take four extra turns, do it all again. By this point all my other fun enchantments like shark typhoon are popping off and i have a decent littly cheeky token army (this is a token/extra turns deck).
Going into combant on my seventh turn in a row I swing out with like, 46 fly sharks of various powers and toughnesses. Due to passionate archeologist, my opponents are already low as fuck and i win.
They're mad because they say this doesnt belong in bracket 4. What say you? Extra turns is bracket 4/5, but the wincon isnt really fast enough for B5 in my humble opinion

I'd probably change angles and include UB stuff as side content in main sets to drive up demand for them.
Low confidence sets could easily get a UB bonus sheet for a related property.
Something like "We're going back to Innistrad(again) so we're doing a bonus sheet for Castlevania"
Something like "TMNT sold like shit because there isn't enough demand for it, but we could easily have bundled it in with a Kamikawa set to increase collector value and pad out the set"
This way I get more regular magic stuff, but Hasbro gets their Fortnite collector value.

I couldn't. I would call a meeting with the design team and talk about what needs to be done for the MTG original pipeline, because what we're currently doing on the writing and release end is straight up BORING the audience.

I'd revisit the viability of the block structure, see if we couldn't make an A-side/B-side release schedule work even if 3 block sets were fucking murdering us.

I'd talk to the writing team about organizing story beats and plot to actually appear on card faces instead of begging people to read bad short-fiction on our website. Full sized book series are probably out, but if we could start releasing novelas and short stories that actually didn't suck we could bundle them with collector sets and boxes.

>>98338173
if you truly played modern then you would be aware that there was once a time when it was considered a "turn 4 format", admitting what every wise player already knows: that brackets are fundamentally a question of 'when can i combo off', not how many pieces your combo is or how 'unlikely' it is
hence why brackets are best played when you can only combo off/thoracle only at turn X+ (for example b3 is 7, b2 is 9)
>>
>>98338226
>>98338226
>The meta is: Combo as fast as possible and hope no one interacts

no it's not lmao it's land rhystic and then win over-top of someone else. it's why abolishers aren't actually all that good because winning on YOUR turn is actually a rather specific time in the format where it's better to win on someone else's turn.

It's not my intention to be rude, but if you have to ask us you're in serious fucking trouble.

Brackets are intentional, not just functional. Goldfish it, when are you threatening game ending or player eliminating? The brackets define much of deck power by the number of turns played; see what it does unopposed first and then start assuming you're getting interacted with regularly if it's B3 or higher.

Bracket assessment from websites only trips from breaking defined rules for lower brackets, such as GC counts and a library of common 2-card infinites.

Anyways, doing you a favor and taking it for a spin; you're easily on the juice turn 6 but I'm not sure if you're gunning for turn 4. I have it pegged at a very solid 3 unless there's something amazing I missed.You'll have some more explosive starts with Altars, but I still think you're looking at turn 6.
