Short answer? Yes. Little longer answer? Just see the video. I agree pretty much 100% with it. Just to add another anecdotal evidence that older or hard to obtain cards do not lose their value when a reprint happens, just look no further than the Judge Promo Avacyn. Double masters not only reprinted...

Hydra Horror was was spoiled a little while ago. It is pretty decent.

Still hoping against hope that number 016 is a new Iona at rare (because 4 mythic would just be overkill for white).
EDIT: nope. That was Felidar Retreat

Three cards: Skyclave Relic (in hand) March of the Machines (in play) Divine Visitation (in play) What happens when I cast Skyclave Relic with kicker? Do the tokens come into play as 4/4 Angels as per Divine Visitation or are they considered pure Artifact tokens that happen to become creatures as so...

A little late to the party, but I love how Skyclave Relic is a strictly better Darksteel Ingot.

If I'm not mistaken WotC clarified that you need 1 different creature for each creature type, so you would need 4 changelings.

Looking for a clarification on some interactions in Commander Suppose I have Linvala, Shield of Sea Gate as a commander, in play enchanted with Gift of Immortality and Magus of the Disk is also in play. I sacrifice her to give indestructible to all my creatures, the following happens: 1) Linvala wou...

• 2 power is relevant for Reveillark / Imperial Recruiter purposes.

Also dodges Meekstone if you want to go that route.

Angel of Destiny is indeed very cool and Kaalia is in the right colors to either deny your opponents' lifegain like Tainted Remedy , Erebos, God of the Dead , Archfiend of Despair or Tibalt, Rakish Instigator as well as payoffs for lifegain like Felidar Sovereign or even a way to win the table with...

@Mookie a small detail worth noting is that if you deal lethal damage to an opponent, you kill them before Angel of Destiny's trigger resolves, so you can still kill someone with combat damage AND it also lets you ramp up commander damage or infect.

Standing to MTG Wiki, "playing a land" is a special action that doesn't use the stack and is different from casting a spell. Literally it means, Take a land from your hand (or other legal zone) and put it onto the battlefield. Also from the Comprehensive rules: 305.1. A player who has prio...

I know a bunch of people are going to screw up angel of destiny in Kaalia of the Vast . In the meantime, Angel of Destiny ... Blade of Selves and a Lyra deck. Hey, there's one already :P (it doesn't work because it entered attacking, it didn't attack). With Blade of Selves you still get to kill one...

EDIT: I kind of forgot this page was in the Commander subforum. My bad. I's been almost half a year since I posted here. Sorry. My considerations were for standard play, not commander. My comment wasn't much for commander, as in Commander almost everything has a home and the 3 life downside isn't mu...

Emeria's Call is mildly interesting as a long-duration indestructibility granter. Flip side is even untapped, which makes it pretty low opportunity cost (assuming the life loss isn't relevant). I'm conflicted on this card. On the surface I don't see why anyone would play it instead of Ugin, the Spi...

That dragon is really something.
Also nice to see that they decided to print Glorious Anthem using the japanese/Junior series promo art. Will save me a lot of money.

*sarcastic mode: engaged* Oh, so stunning and brave! Now muslims, gypsies and black people everywhere in the world will have their lives elevated to new levels of equality and social justice, safe from racism and bigotry! *sarcastic mode: disengaged* In the meantime Wizards of the Coast sells magic ...

Spike Feeder says hi. Other than that, seems reasonable in limited - throw it on a creature with lifelink and double its size every turn. A bit of a build-around, but powerful if it sticks. Gives extra redundancy to Archangel of Thune at the very least. Evra, Halcyon Witness 's ability works with t...

Mistbind Clique has the upside of not being a 2-for-1 as it gives you back your initial creature and is in a color that thrives on instant speed spells, tho. EDIT: oh, almost literally makes your opponent skip a turn if played during their upkeep. This said, Angelic Ascension costs 2 less and has e...

True that if you blindly go for the T2 angel beater you run the risk of a 2for1 and the comparison with Hour of Need is spot on.
This might not be playable in competitive standard, but at least its uses can be diverse enough to warrant a try

The card Angelic Ascension has already been added to the M21 spoilers on this site, but saw no thread discussing it. Reading the card the first time I thought that it looked like a weaker version of Generous Gift / Beast Within as it only hits creatures and planeswalkers and a 4/4 flier is much more...

A small correction. 198 is Quirion Dryad and not quirion druid.
Then the rest of Teferi's showcases are Teferi's Protege, Teferi's Tutelage and Teferi's Ageless Insight in case you missed them.

It is a nice way to capitalize against Witch's Oven + Cauldron Familiar decks, I suppose...
Or in those kind of decks, for that matters.

Whelp, containment priest got the alternate-art treatment instead of baneslayer.
A little disappointed, but my wallet feels much relieved.

as if hasbro cares about day of moruning lol I doubt it is much of a hasbro issue. I mean, not everyone is based in the US and the day of mourning isn't really mandatory, so it is pretty much up to the sensibilities and working schedules of each individual. WotC delayed their spoiler announcement a...

Whelp, good thing they banned fires of invention.
Imagine playing this and double your drawn from dreams basically for free the next turn.

I somewhat regret not picking up Women's Day secret lair. Anything with potential commanders should hold its value. Luckily, Saskia herself is somewhat cheap. When you think about cards "holding value" ask yourself: "am I ever going to sell it?" If the answer is no, then the val...
