oh, I see now, it's people from India Misunderstood at first, I thought the word "indian" referred to indian tribes in america. at least now I know Consulate Dreadnought is offensive to some people. :sweat: People thought it was a coincidence at first, but then MaRo opened his mouth and m...

thanks for the info. although I'm still a bit surprised. How mecha world of Kaladesh even related to indians? I don't remember someone in the story looking like an indian. It was about a vehicle with P/T 7/11, and Maro making it clear that it was a reference to Indians working there, which was a ma...

this is a surprise. These cards have been around for a long time already. why only now? They got called out bad for racism on twitter with lots of proof and things like a MaRo quote where he's being racist against Indians in regards to a Kaladesh card and rumors of racism in hiring practices and st...

Same with Twin.

Stop that, this was covered not even that long ago in this thread. Saying twin ban wasn't predicted 'at all' is nonsense.

So are these going to be banned?

I wonder how long it's going to take them to go through stuff for this issue? As well as how far they'll go.

Are we getting an M21 in Modern thread?

Yeah, this is potentially a very serious card advantage engine in limited if it doesn't have enough removal or flying/reach blockers, and it'll probably still get one card through blockers since it's on attacking rather than hit.

Did someone predict gitaxian probe? I am sure the answer is no, but I would be happy to see a source on that. I don't remember for probe specifically, but there was some talk of both 'free' cantrips (like probe, Street Wraith , Mishra's Bauble and Manamorphose ) and the spells that are entirely phy...

Please cite some sources for this claim. I remember a very articulate MTGS user who did predict it based on T8 shares when I was overly fixated on net Day 2/MTGO/T8 shares, but I do not recall reading any articles or major content pieces, even scattered Tweets, that predicted this ban. I do not wan...

Back then, NOBODY, and when I say nobody, i mean NOBODY predicted that ban was going to happen. Not even ktkenshinx @modernnexus. This is wrong. Plenty of people were predicting a Twin ban back then, mostly because it slotted too well into decks without needing much other cards to support it, other...

Speaking of Twin Astrolabe possibilities, has there been any attempts or success with Kiki-Astrolabe-Uro-Temur setups? That could make some indicators as to how such would work with Twin, just with twin being MUCH better. Plus Astrolabe decks seem to deal with some of Kiki's issues, like the more di...

Graveyard a resource would be a mistake for sure. I don't think it is graveyard as a resource that was the mistake. I think that is fine. I think it is graveyard being allowed to be self-filled easily or efficiently when graveyard can be a resource that was the mistake. I don't think cards should h...

Is Whirlwind of Thought good for anything?

It's effect seems really nice, but it feels like the kind of decks that would want to play it, such as storm, want to win before they easily can.
