Will you look at that, yet another awful take. WotC should really have taken the reins of their most popular format rather than hand it to the guy who evidently doesn't care about it outside of his own playgroup. You must be joking. If you think we're being squeezed by wotc for product now, imagine...

If anything needs a ban (and I don't really think anything does), Hullbreacher should be it. Full stop. Were Notion Thief and Narset, Parter of Veils format bogeymen before this? It doesn't seem like it. Yeah, they sometimes create feel-bad situations, but so do lots of cards. Everyone has their own...

As I play both Commander and modern as my main magic passions, this set really speaks to me. There is of course some chaff I personally don't care for but I'm honestly wondering if i should buy a box or just eBay for all the commons unsummons and direct buy my rares as per usual. Sometimes visceral...

Yes there's the squirrel thing going on but there's also a subtler crab thing going on in this collection as well.

I appreciate this crab thing as well. We need more butter!

Now I want to make a shirt that says "MARK ROSEWATER GAVE ME CRABS" on the front with the MH2 logo on the back.

"Damn you", and "Damn it all" are turns of phrase that will become much more frequent in my playgroup.

I believe it's "damn you" and "damn youse".

I dig this. Ole Gitrog is getting some fun gifts in this set.

What if we get Dryad Arbor-style fetchable duals?

Why run Yusri, Fortune's Flame as the commander when you can run him in the 98 of Krark, the Thumbless and Sakashima of a Thousand Faces?

Dragon Mage with Neheb and Aggravated Assault is a good time, too.

Was playing with my old Angus Mackenzie controlled chaos deck, which ran stuff like Aluren , Dream Halls and Teferi's Puzzle Box . Can't remember what the other two decks were, but I was sitting across from a Doomsday Grenzo build. We were heading into the end game and the Grenzo player decided to g...

I don't know if I'd play it, but the art is great.

It's just a card game guys. You don't have to take it so seriously. It's a card game where the goal is to kill your opponent in any number of horrific ways. Whether electrocuting, immolating, mauling with any number of a variety of horrors, slowly bleeding them to death, chipping away at their sani...

Keen Duelist and Stinging Study are going to be fun in Vilis, Broker of Blood. You don't get to kill me, I get to kill me.

I'm intrigued as to why Hofri Ghostforge didn't make your list, he seems like the strongest option in a vacuum. The only factpr holding me off him is his (imo) god awful art... Edit: he really does look like a tiny Steven Seagal if you squint... I was so, so disappointed in that art. I loved the th...

Blex, Vexing Pest

There are no Insect, Snakes, or Spiders in the set and only one Bat.

We're going back to Innistrad soon, aren't we? Insects and spiders and snakes, oh my!

Grismold, the Dreadsower must be a Witherbloom alum, because that deck is getting sooooo many killer toys in this set. Can't wait. Might be time to finally post a list here, too.

Oh my... is it just me, or is Plumb the Forbidden just ridiculously insane?

It's going to do WORK in Grismold. Can't wait.

Ok, we really need to talk about Wandering Archaic . This card is nuts. I want to point out that you can essentially "cycle" this for 3 . This is good for decks that can cheat it into play. For 5 at colorless this card has INSANE applications and I can see it getting slotted into lots of ...

Codie looks interesting. I have a feeling it'll end up finding a home in Golos decks more often than being the alternative to the Boogey Golem, though.

Question: is it more Cassius's personality that irks people or is it the gun-to-the-knife-fight issue? I only ask because I'm pretty sure Jesper Ejsing has brought multiple CEDH piles to Game Knights (or maybe Extra Turns?) and I don't recall there being this level of annoyance over it.

down goes Chain of Smog (in legacy)

Knowing Wizards stance of "we don't test for eternal formats, lol!" There is bound to be a cheap permanent with magecraft - target opponent loses 1 life/deal 1 damage to any target/target player mills 1. Fingers crossed, but their track record doesn't give me a lot of confidence.
