Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Nature's Blessing

I remember opening this in my first pack of Alliances. At the time I thought it was OP. (Because, you know, early sets, creatures and cards related to creatures.) Today, I...still have use for it, if I expect an Animar player to be running Blightsteel Colossus . (Yeah, you can actually direct trampl...

Re: [C19] Mire in Misery (maro)

I guess this is blacks foray into enchantment removal. Back it up with plenty of creature removal first and you can make it work. Literally the only problem with black enchantment removal is removing your own enchantments. (You shouldn't be able to get out of your demonic pacts so easily.) But subv...

Re: [C19] Nightmare Unmaking (Salty Commander)

Salty commander. I gotta visit the site sometimes. The first option is clearly superior, as most people have no more than seven cards in hand, but plenty of creature has 1 or greater power. This is the kind of cards I with WotC makes more of. Hellbent/low hand size support. Null Profusion exists. I...

Actually, it's more a, have you ever seen The Producers ? Basically, their two Marvel movies had similar storylines, so they chose Captain Marvel over Marvel Girl. Because X-Men had been at best hit or miss, hell, The Last Stand, Logan, and Apocalypse are all forgettable and the less said about Fox'...

Re: [C19] Hate Mirage (Atog de Toga)

I hate Mirage,* but I like this card. So, you can't go infinite, but you do get entry triggers, and you can get death triggers with work, plus, you know, combat.

*Teen Titans' attempt to ride on the 90s antihero fad. I won't say anymore. *shudders at memory*

Re: [C19] Aeon Engine (EDHREC Preview)

Uno! But seriously, I like this idea, and it's been something I've been waiting for: Truly multiplayer cards. Didn't expect one with no 1v1 value whatsoever; even goad cards work as "can't attack next turn".

That Curse is going into a deck I want to use against a friends Niv-Mizzet deck, he likes to draw 20+ cards with it to finish of the game. Well, now it will finish off him first. :) It can also be thrown in Nekusar and such, when you don't yet have what you need to win the game, but you can knock o...

It is funny to see grimoire again, I remember that was always one of the fail mythics back in the day when opening packs. Pretty threatening card in commander though.
It's one of those like Lux Cannon that looks like a threat but is easy to remove.

Re: [C19] Marisi, Breaker of the Coil (SCG)

I just see it as a decent attempt to make combat more relevant. A lot of Commander games run on combos, so making combat more relevant diversifies the meta.

It's not Scooze, but if there's anything that keeps Commander in anything resembling balance, it's hate cards that do something else so you don't feel like you wasted a card.

Just FYI, this deck's commander still can force tokens to attack while populating them.
You mean they ETB tapped and attacking. Because usually forced attack makes me think of Erg Raiders and friends, which would not attack if it could not attack.
