Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

The BIG cards are super mythics, right?

I need an EDH format variant is that is rares and lower.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Wreck Hunter

I wanted this card to be good. Sigh. At least you can target yourself.

Powerstones are just not it. Small plus that you can use them for activated abilities as well as artifacts…but when they re-make Nature's Claim (like STP->PTE), I sure hope we get a Treasure instead of a Powerstone token.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Obeka and Ghired, for sure. Kellen cheats on mana too easily.

Yeah, this set is warped. Every green creature should cost two mana more.

Also, the set promotes casting spells and has excellent enemy-dual legends? Strixhaven 2.0 is pretty great.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Eternal Thirst

I'd probably use Necrosynthesis over it. Bonus points for casting it on an opponent's high-power creature that is going to bite it soon.

(I likely would use Tarrian's Soulcleaver over either.)

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Demonic Ruckus is an outstanding T1 play for an aggro general that already has haste.

That was me showing my mom the Eldraine border Lathiel!

I wish there were not so many legends, but the flavor of this set is outstanding!

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Back to Basics

This and BM/MotM are on our house-ban list. I disagree with said bans because I think these are fair cards that help mono-color decks compete. B2B has an elite name. It has elite flavor text. Great art that looks gorgeous against the old border. A cheap enchantment that forces slower games? This mig...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Verdant Command

The squirrels not being surprise blockers always bugged me from a use standpoint; it remains a fair-costed card.

I am probably using Return to Nature then Turn the Earth in this slot instead.

Re: Aether Rift [scd]

Giving all opponents the chance to stop it is really bad. If you could choose the opponent? If you got to draw a card first? Maybe a bit better. I really just see it as a slow and bad discard outlet. (I'd instead go with one of the G/GR enchantments that lets you cheat in creatures from the top of y...

I love the Wild West. Something about seeing…fewer humans, more critters really felt like a good change-up.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Odric, Blood-Cursed

Blood tokens require mana and a hand to use. This guy had lots of potential and wasted all of it.

"Count each ability only once" is lame, too. "Creatures you control have haste"--SWEET, five blood tokens or whatever would have been great (and different)!

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Thicket Elemental

Is it okay in elementals or kicker.dec? The biggest draw for me is Ron's art.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Fire Covenant

Obosh, the Preypiercer gets okay use out of it. I might have cut Pestilent Spirit from that deck, but that spirit played well with FC as well.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Primeval Bounty

My buddy's Yarok landfall deck used it. I think he could have used the slot better, but six life at a time became insurmountable quickly.

Is Hinata modal spells a fun deck? This card reminds me that I want to build that deck with all of my chaff.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Pariah

In my earlier EDH days, I felt like a genius pairing Cho-Manno, Revolutionary with this or Pariah's Shield . The deck was a fort thematically, with walls and gargoyles...but no real wincon. A lot of my early decks had that problem. That ramparts deck was a good way to learn the drawbacks to playing ...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Gandalf the White

Was gonna ask "why not historic?" Then I remembered Fall of the Thran. At least we got [checks notes] four other legends that care about Sagas in 2023.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

That's a good point: There are so many new cards that I'm not going to see them all (either in my decks or in opponents'). And I'm definitely not gonna remember what my opponents are playing. My friend played one of The Masters and a Cyberman guy. I think they had myriad. I got nothing else about th...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Nelly encourages combat in a different way.
Feather 2.0 is different.
It's not like we aren't getting new angles. It's just that they push out so many legends now that they have to use the default most of the time.

Plus you have to make things unique in your own way. Kellan 1.0 Curses is great fun.
