I'm loving me some pre-mutation Tahngarth. I don't know how practical this is, but combat should be a lot of fun.

That's a really weird reprint. The original Ral is a pretty weak card as planeswalkers go...

Well, this could get Revel in Riches banned in Commander...

Legendary wall. Never thought I'd see the day.

Ignite the Future seems really fun, and the flashback cost might actually be doable in most Commander games, but hitting three lands with it is probably up there in the "worst feelings in the world" department (although you could play two of those lands).

Holy Day of the Infinite Silence seems pretty interesting.

I don't see much of a reason why you wouldn't want to pay the entwine cost every time you play this, but it's pretty neat nonetheless - Nature's Spiral with upside.

night of souls' betrayal ? Doesn't look competitive, but it's a cute design. Bust out those akroan horses and forbidden orchards. Eh, if you can protect him ( boot him up ), this gets out of control fast. You could also do Plague Engineer or Engineered Plague naming Plant if you're not playing agai...

I loved this back in the day. Glad to see it back. Instant speed board wipes are always welcome.

There needs to be flavor text on this, and it needs to be "Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!"

So basically you get a 2/2 with flash each turn for free, and if they're creatures you can cheat them out super easily (with Ixidor or Skirk Alarmist). Not too shabby.

All three of these are excellent. Vesuvan Shapeshifter's new art is incredible, Gift of Doom is a really neat design, and Volrath is Volrath.

Um, as far as I know K'rrik was just a plain ol' Phyrexian sleeper agent, not Yawgmoth's son. In any case, holy crap Phyrexian mana lord is ridiculous. All I have to say is that you can Dark Ritual for free for that to be scary. Thankfully he's rather fragile. EDIT: Explanation for the "Son of ...

The mothership has posted the online preview schedule for Commander 2019:

https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/a ... 2019-07-31

There's not much here so it's likely the bulk of the set will be revealed at Gen Con this weekend.

Good new is Kate Elliot is back and wrote the Throne of Eldraine story "The Wildered Quest", bad new the story is moving back to ebooks. The "The Wildered Quest" will be out on Sept 4. for $3.99. Considering how disastrous the War of the Spark book was, this is a breath of fresh...

I also notice the collector numbers on these cards are missing the total number of cards in the set (i.e. "[card number]/[total # of cards]"). I guess they've decided to drop that given how many "extra" cards get printed in each set? Since the Mythic M appears after a space, it ...

about the legend. He has the "draw a card" in the text + some other abilities, so 5 cmc is reasonable for this guy. Obviously a lightning rod for removal, but the decks that would use him probably has some counterspells. don't understand anything about Brawl, because I don't play or care ...

No no, I'm talking when I want to do multiple quotes of a same post, because I analyze different segments (and maybe even from different users) each time. When I click the button you say, I just have this, a quote of the entire post, but not what I want for longer posts. Oh, in that case, do what C...

On an unrelated note: There's no quote button? Because I have to manually write it each time I want to take only segments of a posts.

There is, it's the button with quotation marks " in it on the upper right hand side of the post you want to quote.

I could see them skipping the total only on the ancillary ("extra") cards.

Looks like that's exactly right. Aaron Forsythe clarified it on Twitter:

I read the article again and so apparently the only place foils of these will be available is in the collector boosters. Foil Arcane Signets are probably going to command a tremendous amount of value as a result since they won't be in regular (draft) boosters. Might have to preorder those early...

Yeah, Arcane Signet will go in basically every Commander deck ever (except colorless ones, obviously). Chulane is...weird. I'm glad he enables his own triggered ability, though. I also notice the collector numbers on these cards are missing the total number of cards in the set (i.e. "[card numb...

The Plains, Swamp and Forest are so great. I just love it. Much like Lorwyn being Guay's. Damn it, when will she return? If she isn't in this set, then what are WOTC even doing? Based on her Instagram, Rebecca Guay seems to be pretty busy as of late, but you never know. I sure wasn't expecting the ...

Well, this was unexpected. I suppose we'll need to wait a bit longer for Kaldheim. Still, visiting the court of the Fey sounds sweet. I'm sure that there will absolutely nothing suspicious going on there whatsoever, and it will be a nice break from all the tension that was present in WAR. (/s) Well...

As long as there are no Eldrazi on Eldraine, I'll be happy. Seriously, though, I'm already looking forward to seeing this. Maybe we get a trailer on Saturday.
