Geeze this is in fact a good card, maybe even a little too threatening. Red zone ability has a very very good failure state. I also like that it works with tokens so you can just make him a wonky goblin commander or something. I would seriously consider this for a RB deck some day.

Pretty good with Rafiq I hear. Being too lazy to fly would be a bigger issue to me if they ever actually attacked, but they're more of a sideline player.

Sweet lord we get the closest thing we'll ever see to Cataclym in the command zone and it's not only tribal but also a pun? End my suffering please.

How's Ajani a pun?

Oddly I got into Berserk after playing the game on the Dreamcast and subsequently watching the original anime. From what I recall the game was quite good even if I had no ideal what the Hell was going on. I've always meant to pick up the manga. Maybe I'll get around to it once it's completed.

YMMV. Puts in work against token lists that don't leverage haste and has some funny applications with various cards (personal favorite is Living Plane or Opalescence). There are places for this guy but I mostly agree he's not as good as he looks at first.

Hey, ya'll hear that the WOTC President tendered her resignation? Crazy. Turns out overprinting cards, designing terrible cards, lowering the quality of cards, and overseeing the absolute debacle of Magic 30th anniversary isn't good for long-term career longevity. I wish I had faith that -- somehow...

My point was that Hasbro using their own property for an AI database is less problematic in the sense that most current AI models use publicly available data and\or stolen works. So perhaps I should have said it's not legally problematic (for now). Damage to job sectors due to AI is without a doubt ...

If nothing else, chucking the entirety of MtG into an AI model has none of the ethical drawbacks of the art stuff - they aren't stealing anything, and anyone designing a card is getting part of the inspiration from previous cards anyway. Excellent point. It's significantly less unethical to have a ...

So realistically how long will it be until there's an AI generated set (at least the card texts)? 2-3 years is my guess.

Oh man I missed Fynn the other day. As one of my primary commanders these days I feel like I need to talk about him a bit. I feel like he's a conundrum. In one sense he's just like any other aggro commander than can be backed up with burn, but I've found that in practice starting out as an aggro dec...

The real Sliver static ability is "All Slivers have Price Memory".

God I love silly old card text like this. It really brings me back. My first thought is that I never remember anyone using this to kill Moxen back in the day, unlike our friend Mox Monkey , although the later costs less to cast and can kill Sol Rings and the like too. Definitely a weird space for a ...

As a rule "choose target opponent" is a recipe for disaster.

This is such a fun idea. I should definitely do the same next time our whole group can get together.

Once upon a time, in a simpler age, this guy won Maelstrom Wanderer a lot of games. Sometimes I miss battlecruiser Magic.

Yeah geeze Fomori Vault is cracked.

Good to know. Seeing the vault cards today triggered some vague recollection of the game and I wanted to know if I was totally off base.

Based on only my surface level understanding of Borderlands isn't this whole set just that?

God bless anyone who can keep track of how all these different versions of cards are released.

Yuma compares incredibly favorably to one of my favorite decks of all time - Titania, Protector of Argoth control. I could argue that he's better in every way, except that I don't actually want to play him. Mostly because I've come to hate playing more than 2 colors, but my OCD prevents me from simp...

I know I'm late to the party but Obeka Initiative deck sounds just annoying enough to be fun. Running the Undercity every combat really tickles my fancy.

Very nice! I just started using an airbrush too, for priming and topcoating miniatures during bad weather. I did a large batch of miniatures a while back that got ruined because of humidity when I sprayed them so I kind of threw a fit and got the whole airbrush rig, lol. I'm not very good with it yet.

Oh look another easy peasy outlet for Rooftop Storm infinite combo. I appreciate this one being on theme and will be adding it to Grimgrin immediately. I do not appreciate the excessive bookkeeping required for adding the counters if your opponents ask you to play it out.
