Re: Ratadrabik - Ringbearers or no?

Bear in mind that Boromir, Warden of the Tower doesn't even need a free sac outlet, as he can sacrifice himself. It doesn't instantly win the game on its own, but it does infinitely trigger any other Alliance or dies triggers you may have, immediately completes the Ring, and can keep your board inde...

Re: Gilded: A Fixed, Historical Non-Rotating Format Based Around the Golden Age of Extended

Apparently I am not alone in the desire to create a similar format. There's now a small Discord for it, which we are tentatively calling "Millennium". After some discussion, we're adopting the following initial banlist: Skullclamp Umezawa's Jitte Sensei's Divining Top The five allied Fetch...

Re: Graveyard Tresspasser price online

Why is this card $40+ online and $4 in paper? Make it make sense. Well, a month later and it's sub $2 in paper and around $8 online. That's still a fairly large discrepancy. It seems this is common to several Midnight Hunt cards - Brutal Cathar // Moonrage Brute is <$3 in paper and $13 online, Memo...

Re: What happened to Karn?

from I've read, he sacrificed Venser's spark. Does this mean Karn cannot planeswalk anymore? We will likely get this answer with March of the Machine: Aftermath. The packaging says something about desparked walkers repairing what's left of the multiverse. That wording also implies that some amount ...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Academy Manufactor

Academy Manufactor is one of my favorite cards from the past few years, and I've basically always had at least one deck packing it since it hit. There's just something immensely satisfying about generating that many game objects. So many ways to turn it into full-blown advantage.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Eye of the Storm

I really don't understand why Panoptic Mirror still hangs out on the banned list when there's infinitely more degenerate cards in the same vein like this, Arcane Bombardment , Thousand-Year Storm , and so forth. In any deck worth its salt, Eye says "I win this turn but it'll take 20 minutes to ...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

I think the card (which we've seen leaked) itself is fine though It's a Journeyer's Kite except it can grab Spheres and Locuses as well, and if you have nine different names among your basics/spheres/locuses it can become a 9/9 indestructible trample toxic 9 for 3 mana.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Druids' Repository

I'm a big fan of Druid's Repository, but I tend to be more fond of creature combat than most people do. If you're regularly turning dudes sideways, this can get silly quite quickly. It's at its best if you deck is doing several of these things: -Lots of very cheap creatures (elves, Edric builds, etc...

someone in my local group was happy about the fast lands and all i could think was what? Fastlands are decent in Modern and this brings those lands to Pioneer for the first time, which is a big deal for aggressive decks. They were getting up there in price, so this is a solid reprint for sure. Feel...

Re: Hobo: The Return!

Do Jumpstart cards (like Chemister's Insight ) really qualify? The Jumpstart ability lets you cast it from your graveyard by discarding a card <in addition to its normal costs>. You're still paying the actual mana cost of the spell. This is presumably also why Retrace ( Oona's Grace ) is not on the ...

Could you put a spoiler in the OP containing legal sets for this format? I think that'd help a lot with engagement, at least with regards to deckbuilding.
Done. There's also a scryfall link in that spoiler to query the complete list.

Re: Jumpstart for Commander Partners

I've been considering an idea like this for a while. My thought was that each "pack" would be a Commander + 19 other cards, and you'd pick two plus a 20-card colorless "Core" and shuffle them together into a 60 card deck. The core would be mostly color fixing, ramp, and utility,...

I've had an idea kicking around in my head for a bit, and for 2023 I'm determined to bring it to reality. The past few years have seen a huge growth of the popularity of fixed, historical formats. 93-94/Old School is the most well-known of these, but Premodern (Ice Age/4th through Scourge) has an ex...

Ah, Surveyor's Scope seems reasonable. Might have to check that out. You really need fetches for it to fire on all cylinders, as you can bring yourself down on landcount enough to get the full value very easily, but the payoff is huge. And if you're doing Sun Titan and Cosmic Intervention shenaniga...
