Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Even as a fair card, Heliod seems fine as repeatable lifelink. Escape Velocity seems decent in a deck that doesn't care a lot about the graveyard and wants a repeatable haste outlet specifically for one thing. I like Glimpse of Freedom , but the cost of exiling 5 cards is too high for me to consider...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Underworld Breach : Woooow. This is really good. I have no problem putting this into all my red decks. It's no Yawgwin, but it's in a color that doesn't get Yawgwin's. I'd argue this is better than PiF outside combo decks as it hits all cards and is more mana efficient. Not very good super early, b...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Oooh, new spoilers that actually looks really good and make me want to run them. Thirst for Meaning : Goes into Bruna. Can be a 3 for 1 there so that's nice. Not really interested in running it anywhere else as for a blue card-draw this isn't very good... Storm's Fury : As a non-white/black boardwip...

Re: What would be your reaction to this play?
I don't like deal-making. I have a playgroup where no one makes deals, and I wish I could spend more time in that playgroup compared to just playing in an LGS. I'd also not make or accept the deal myself, but I can't hold a nyone accountable for doing so simply because of how popular deal-making is.

Re: Animist's Awakening
I ran it in T&T with 75 lands. Topdecking it after getting 7 lands in play with Manabond turn 1, proceeding to get another 6 lands into play with it is one of the most explosive starts I've had. In general, I don't think it adds enough flexibility or raw power potential compared to what I expect...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Copy Artifact
I use it as a Signet with upsied in Wanderer & Tasigur. It's usually something better than that, and almost never dead. Never disappoints.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Some nice cards spoiled since I last checked! The Great Henge : New Malestrom Wanderer staple huh? 2 mana card draw that you can't cascade into, sure you need Wanderer out to cast it but it's not that big of a hurdle, I think. It might be too low impact, but I'll be trying it out, assuming the price...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Ah, it's true that something with a lot of activated abilities could get some use ot it, didn't consider that. It's still a really rough downside to only cast spells during your turn, but if you have a lot of activated ability interaction, I could see it being decent.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Embercleave is looking pretty good with Gisela, Blade of Goldnight Depends on how you build her, I know I'm 100% not running it :p but, for a voltron-esque build it should fit right in (it's kind of expensive though...) Fires of Invention seems like it has one restriction too many on it for it to b...

Re: Tips&Tricks: Gisela Prisonfort
Seeing Spectral Grasp in-game just reinforced how little the effect is worth a card. Swapping it out with something I'm more interested in. Also grabbed a Rugged Prairire . Gonna see if I can get a bunch of testing in one of these days as I have more cards I want to try out than time I have to test ...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I like Embercleave (I don't have anywhere to run it though). Mirrormade is nice. I'm mostly running Copy Artifact as a colored signet with massive upside, but not sure if the extra mana is worth the flexibility, but I'll try it out. It's probably good enough, but I'll figure that out along the way. ...

Re: Marisa.dec (Maelstrom Wanderer Theft)
I'll add one when I get a Robber of the Rich for rogue synergy. I don't want to go over the top on battlefield theft though, ergo no Control Magic etc, I'd much rather take things from libraries, graveyards or hands.

Re: The Ur-Dragon: 30+ Creature Type Changeling Tribal
I think I've said it before, but I really, really like this deck. It's a very nice way to run a lot of cool synergistic cards that wouldn't see much play otherwise and it seems to have a ton of fun interactions you'd only see when playing with or against the deck. Patriarch's Bidding seems like a gr...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
this set is really frustrating me so far. The Food idea rules and the adventure mechanic is novel but I just can't sustain interest in a plane about Human Knights, sorta my least favourite archetype in fantasy. I'm not the world's most enthusiastic high-fantasy fan, I like my settings and stories m...

Re: Marisa.dec (Maelstrom Wanderer Theft)
Uh, I got some lands. Don't think I need to to explain them. I also got an Echo of Eons as wheels are exactly the kind of draw I want here, and the only thing better than wheeling once is wheeling twice. I cut Rhystic Study since it's not that impactful on average and the worst-case scenario is kind...

Re: Random Deck of the Week Thread
Never played with or against demon tribal. I'm not a tribal player in general so it's hard to give any feedback. Wildfire Devil seems like an awkward inclusion since it's not a demon. I'm happy to see Sin Prodder seeing play, but I don't expect it to be any good? I like the combination of the X spel...

syr carah, the bold is intriguing. CA for red in the CZ.

A mono-boros commander I meant sorry, Pramikon sadly has a blue mana symbol in the cost. I wish Greedy Impulse was mono-blue so I could add it to Wanderer, I think it's too expensive as a generic goodstuff card. Lochmere Serpent is so close, yet so far. "Active this ability only any time you co...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Vivien's Arkbow
I like it. I don't have anywhere I can run it, but it's certainly good enough for the cards that want it. Someday I'll run it somewhere. I'm glad it doesn't have a "only activate when you could cast a sorcery" line on it.
