Is that really the name of this Secret Lair?

'Cause that's the best name so far if so.

When this thing EtBs do you get to know what they are targeting before you respond to the trigger or do they choose on resolution? The wording is "put" so I'm unsure. I think it's respond with no knowledge? It doesn't target, so the controller doesn't choose until the ability resolves. If...

So you have Marauding Raptor in play. You cast KOTM, who takes two damage. Is a -1/-1 effect going to kill Zilla? No. When you put both damage and -x/-x on a creature, it's the damage that's killing it. In your example, Godzilla sees that it's a 6-power creature with 2 damage on it, and says, "...

3 toughness, Godzilla is only as tough as an elephant? Read what the card does. He is effectively a 7/7 except for abilities that care about toughness (allowing him to dodge some removal spells). I see now.. so he is the enemy of walls, and other low power creatures. :grin: It also works well with ...

Maro said there were 13 different kinds of counters in Ikoria, right? Adding loyalty counters to the ones listed here gives us all 13.

Only available through LGSs = supporting LGSs = good $165 is less than the price of fetches individually = good ....but stores only get ten copies, so they're going to be gouged massively ....and with that little supply, there will be zero impact on the price of fetches otherwise, for anyone unable...

Yeah, it really feels like the flavor text on the two versions illustrated by Magali Villeneuve were swapped by accident. Because Eldrazi are angels? You do not make sense. The angels got eldrazified in Eldritch Moon. Do you not remember the entire plot of SOI block? The one where she's standing in...

Something about the way Heliod is slamming his spear down in Heliod's Intervention makes me feel like it's missing the meme text, "%$#% this guy in particular."

Excuse me? How dare you make the game end, instead of allowing me to durdle ad nauseam, as is my birthright!

Can't disagree with that. Valid points. I think Thassa being outmaneuvered and embarrassed may be victory enough since embarrassing a God is about the only thing a mortal could do to them. Just look at the art, the Theros gods literally dominate the horizon I can't imagine a moral standing a chance...

...Thassa let this story continue on in her followers' memories? I don't think the gods have that much control over the thoughts and memories of their followers. If they did, Ajani evangelizing a rejection of the gods wouldn't have been a plot point. The pantheon could've just put the kibosh on tha...

I was wondering what the Titans' type lines were going to be. I was thinking about how "god" wouldn't fit thematically, but just making them "giants" would undersell their significance.

I think someone on the design team has a Muldrotha Commander deck.

As opposed to what the art suggests easily dies to Hail of Arrows.

Well, if you fire enough arrows at him, one of them is bound to hit his weakspot, right?

I wasn't expecting an indestructible Conjurer's Closet this set, but my Mairsil, the Pretender sure as hell ain't complaining.

Similar rarity upshift to Gary, was Nylea's Disciple a busted limited card?

Based on this, Gary, and Reverent Hoplite, I'm assuming it has more to do with there being a cycle at uncommon.

Of note, you can put counters on him or other gods when they aren't creatures, or a creature of your that became an enchantment. And you can use him to put counters on Afiya Grove . Huzzah for the most extreme of corner cases! If you don't think I will attempt this, you're wrong That Idyllic Tutor ...

I wonder how much it will go for now.

Considering how much Misdirection and Exploration tanked right after their reprint in Conspiracy, I'd say, "Not much."

Considering that you can make this completely one-sided, and the scry to boot, I can't really say that this should be costed any less. But at the same time, paying 4 for any kind of fog rarely feels great.

"or Enchantment" is because it turns the permanent into an enchantment, so the enchant clause still needs to be legal.

I mean they could have gone with an Animate Dead-style wording, but I think we can all agree that that would have been too wordy.

But I don't think she's the first

You're right. The first was Kestia, the Cultivator.

My Uril EDH, before I took it apart, would have loved Escape Velocity . Is anybody else expecting a 20/30 creature instead of a 2/3 from the art? Well, it can grow quite big, so the art is obviuousy not supposed to depict it's initial size - but I agree it kinda misses the flavour of the card to jus...

I wonder how many people will read it as Erebos, Black-hearted. Hes a black creature! I know i did.... To be fair, I did and almost entered it as the title of thread... I think we should expect a fair number of broken cardlinks in the coming months should Erebos make any kind of splash in any format.
