Hello Guardian Project v3.0. (It's so good I had to skip V2 entirely). I can't wait to get a copy of this.

For impact, Lyra Dawnbringer. For humour,

Cultivate for me, since I play in a battlecruiser meta and so the extra colour-fixing and guaranteed land drop for the next turn are great.

Swords to Plowshares; cheaper card monetarily and I'd rather give my opponent some life than ramp them.

vs.

How I wish I could play Embercleave in Kefnet ; a Fireshrieker with three extra effects would be absolutely amazing. I'm most excited for Faeburrow Elder though, since I've wanted a Bloom Tender for Derevi for a while but would never justify the cost. Two thoughts regarding Fires of Invention . Like...

Exsanguinate, by far. In my experience, decks using Torment lead to the sort of games where it's effectively three player until the fourth sticks his heads in and says "Whoops, guess I win". Not fun.

vs.

I'd like to try Sway of the Stars , Panoptic Mirror and Worldfire in the format, so they'd be my unbans. If I could only unban one, it'd be Sway of the Stars ; the control aspect of being able to reset the whole game, with upside for you if you have the mana, really intrigues me. For bans, fast mana...

This reminds me of a deck I found on Tappedout recently: Gallery of Deceivers . It's different in that it's 5C and is centred around Deceiver of Form instead of Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer , but it could be good to peruse for ideas. The main line in Izzet colours is to attack with 7-9 copies of Wind...

Surely you mean Kryten ? Kryten makes more sense physically, but for me it's the face that makes me think of Rimmer. The projected self-pride despite being less than he desires, which is exacerbated by his being a hologram. In ways, Rimmer is indeed a solemn simulacrum. (Also smug and neurotic, but...

Storm comes back as well

I'd just logged on to say this. I hope there's enough attention drawn away from the graveyard for this to be the case. Can't beat the elegance of counting to twenty.

The Mirrodin card art is the best card art because it reminds me of Arnold Rimmer from Red Dwarf. Also the only version of the card's art that seems to understand the definition of the word "solemn". I remember people being underwhelmed with it when it first was previewed, and then seeing ...

Mindslicer is a great creature to sacrifice as you refill your hand immediately, while opponents lose theirs. Pretty much game winning honestly. Correct me if I'm wrong, or if I'm missing another interaction or am otherwise misunderstanding you, but I don't think this works. Since sacrificing the c...

There is a stepping stone between the current rules and a scaling Scry approach, which would be a scaling Halimar Depths effect. This way you get the advantage of potentially being able to draw in a better order but don't get to remove any dud draws from your first few turns. (Edit: Typo).

This would have been a sweet reprint for the Naya precon. While it's not necessarily on-theme for a populate deck (although it would help clear the way for Ghired, Conclave Exile to safely get his attack trigger), it'd be great in a Marisi, Breaker of the Coil thunderdome deck to keep the fun rollin...

Legionary's Duty RWW

As an additional cost to play Legionary's Duty, sacrifice a creature you control.
Creatures you control get +X/+0 until end of turn if the sacrificed creature was red and +0/+X until end of turn if the sacrificed creature was white.

Since Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero returns artifacts in addition to creatures, I think we can take him a step further than Wrath tribal and put him at the head of MLD- Obliterate|8ED tribal. After all, if we're going to be the only one with creatures or artifacts, why not make it so we're also the onl...

Yeah, I initially misread your post, too. After reading your last post now, it's clear to me that you understand the rules and just expressed yourself in a way that was a bit confusing^^° Yeah I'm guilty of expressing myself poorly quite often. Normally I take a while to write my posts but I was in...

Okay, the general is just being sent back to the zone. Not from destruction or something that triggers the replacement effect and the tax increase, but any previous tax still applies. Thank you for the clarification Myllior. I was going to be rather salty if it did increase the tax, which thankfull...

From a quick search, anti- Vacuum cards include: My main issue with the card is that it's designed to get around hexproof on a commander, which is predominantly a white ability, while the answer to it (i.e. player hexproof) is also predominantly white. As a result there's some collateral to non-whi...

I'm not the biggest fan of Leadership Vacuum . At least Witchbane Orb and Orbs of Warding exist. K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth ? Now that's a card. Turning all black mana symbols in your costs, including those for activated abilities, into Phyrexian mana is the stuff Commander is made of. I'm sure this wi...
