Re: Much Ado About Arcane Signet, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Fellwar Stone
How did you get an MSRP? WotC is not revealing MSRPs anymore. (Unless you work at a store) Anyway I feel the 15 (cdn) dollar price tag is a bit steep. But no regrets when I buy my deck for 30 cdn (about 23 US) and get my 30 bucks back with just two cards and have more money in it. If I sell every c...

Re: Esper value makers
Well, if we're talking about sending attackers somewhere else Ghostly Prison and Propaganda can do that. So can Peacekeeper (kinda) if you're willing to pay the tax a while. Sanguine Bond can work well with Oloro. I guess I'm having trouble suggesting too many things, because a lot of the good ones ...

Re: Dynamics of Brawl vs EDH (If not limited by rotation)
I like the variance that 100-card decks bring, which would be considerably reduced at 60 cards. Plus, I like long games. I like there to be a back and forth, ups and downs, wheeling and dealing, big plays etc. I like wins to be exhaustively earned, after a long fight with the rest of the table. Side...

Re: Which do you like more?
They're very different, but I'll go with Aura of Silence. That tax is no joke, and the sac ability can be used in response to non-split second removal.

Re: Which do you like more?
Totally deck dependent, but I'll say Trinket because it's the OG and it fetches Sol Ring . Side note, I'm still waiting for the 4 and 5 CMC parts of this cycle to be completed, but I'm afraid there aren't any more 'tr-' words left. Trebuchet Mage? Triceratops Mage? Tribunal Mage? Trigonometry Mage? ...

Re: Much Ado About Arcane Signet, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Fellwar Stone
I remember way back in 2010 when Sol Ring was only played in 14% of the decks. It's weird how reprinting the %$#% out of it made it accessible enough that everyone could run them in any deck they wanted to. Let's revisit this hypothetical when LGS' aren't rationing the brawl decks to one per custom...

Re: What happened to White in ELD?
White's been getting the short end for years, though that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. What really bothers me about WotC's approach to white is the lack of any kind of card draw. Every single other color gets some kind of card draw: Blue : just draws cards because it can. Black: pays a pr...

Much Ado About Arcane Signet, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Fellwar Stone
There has been a lot of talk and consternation about Arcane Signet lately. Is it a universal staple? Should it have been in Commander 19? Should it be in all multicolor Commander decks from now on? Does anyone actually care about Brawl? I've got a lot of thoughts about these issues, but have two mai...

Re: Yarok, the Desecrated - ETB Value, Pod, & Infinite Mana
My Yarok build is slowly coming together. Have you considered Field of the Dead? Seems really easy to get online, and you can split your basics between normal and snow-covered to more easily enable it.

Zacama. It's close, but Zacama's abilities, especially the built-in Naturalize, are just super useful.

Re: Newbie rules mistakes you did when you were new to mtg?
Waaaaaayyy back in the day, I thought the protection from white on Wildfire Emissary meant that its damage couldn't be prevented by Circle of Protection: Red . My opponent thought similarly, and on game 3 someone pointed it out. The game was just a big dumb stalemate after that. My friends and I als...

Re: Creature Type Trivia: Throne of Eldraine Edition
nice trivia. I didn't realize there were so many knights. looks like they're really pushing knight tribal with this set. It's definitely a heck of a lot, even in a set with a focus on the tribe. Part of it is likely due to the Brawl decks, which are considered to be part of the set. On a separate n...

As part of maintaining the Sporcle quiz in my sig, I often come across useless but fun trivia to share. Throne of Eldraine has been one of the more interesting sets when it comes to creature type shenanigans, so...let's go. The top five creature types in Throne of Eldraine are: Human: 60 Knight: 45 ...

Re: What Would You Ban/Unban?
To summarize most of the posts in this thread:
I'd ban all of this stuff because it's busted and ruins games. Also, I'd unban a bunch of other stuff that's busted and ruins games.
Anyway, I'd unban Prophet of Kruphix. Yeah, yeah, I know.
