Don't think anyone's mentioned Myra the Magnificent . Card seems...fairly insane? I can think of two main ways to abuse her, although both depend to some extent on which attractions are available. 1) Just cast a ton of cantripping 1-mana spells so you have 5 attractions active the turn after you ca...

Bruh, why is far out not eternal legal, that actually sounds fun unlike most of the eternal legal UN cards they are making. I even did a quick scry fall search to see if any modal cards would be broken with it, Demonic Pact seems bonkers (assuming it works the way I think it is, with Far out being ...

I gotta ask, for people who are familiar with WH40K, are there any protagonists? All the cards I've seen so far make it look like it's the zerg vs phyrexians vs space demons. I'm not saying I need "good guys" but I'm not sure how one would get invested in a fight between various flavors o...

I feel like we won't get UW versions due to the new creature types. I also didn't realize how many new cards they were printing for this product. It was mentioned on the previous page, but Maro already went over how they've got a (tentative) plan in place for that: they'll make up a new creature ty...

@Mookie eesh, I figured that was the least likely solution given the mess it'd make when combining things from UB and UW. Like imagine 10 years from now, someone with the UW version of Haruspex casts Control Magic on Tyranid Harridan , how the hell are you going to know that they interact? I mean, ...

Marneus looks way stronger than any of the face commanders to me. The token producing ability is whatever, I guess it provides a win with infinite mana, but drawing a card every time you tap Thraben Doomsayer or play a land with Field of the Dead seems strong, and the body is pretty on-par too. Aft...

@Mookie based on Angelic Harold being silver I was assuming that the name and picture stickers couldn't be used in non-un formats. Has someone said that they can be? Angelic Harold is silver-bordered because it cares about the number of words in the cards' name, which can vary between languages and...

Needing ten sheets is pretty obnoxious tbh. Though on the plus side, the inconsistency probably means that they'll be terrible and thus unlikely to be competitively viable. I'm glad that they *mostly* reference cards you own, to prevent situations where someone playing sticker cards requires other ...

If I sticker a reserved list card with a sticker changing it's name, can Wizard's reprint that card?

Stickers are removed at the end of the game, so you'd have to keep playing that game for at least 2 years for it to be legal

Stickers seem neat to me. They're more versatile/random counters, and tickets let them have variable power levels.

Something I'll call out is that we are somewhat unlikely to get more ETB: fight creatures in green - WotC ramped it up in the 'green can do whatever it wants' phase a few years back, but they have since pulled back on this effect. Not that I understand why - isn't Nekrataal secretly a green card? (...

I...have so many questions. Does the choice reset between games? Do the symbols mean this thing has a 5-color identity? I'm pretty sure this will only work in draft anyway. It's legal in other formats, just unlikely to get used since it's just a come into play tapped dual land, which are a dime a d...

Except, Gilded Drake's trigger becomes a completely hilarious interaction,

Can you elaborate, because I can't see any way this interacts with your own gilded drake. Or are you just referring to the opponent playing a gilded drake, which does get a little funky.

You are taxing everyone every turn. If someone doesn't pay, everything gets wiped. I plan to only flash it in and then not pay, saving my one creature and exiling everything else. No one else will get to pay or save their critters. It's definitely good with any commander that grants flash to artifa...

The combo of archivist plus winds is gonna close games hard. I like that. I doubt that adding draw 3 to winds is gonna close games if it didn't already end games. Would you get to draw equal to the number of opponents you have or draw equal to the number of creatures your opponents have? Because th...

@Hawk note that both those effects are "may" so you can't force it per se. Ofc they'd probably be crazy not to take it, unless it's down to lategame 1v1 or something. Personally I'd say it's a lot better than opposition agent since agent is basically a 1-shot value and then "opponent...

Yeah, Alaundo the Seer not giving the exiled cards suspend is definitely going to cause some confusion. Still, seems amusing if you're playing it fairly - you can use Alaundo to cheat out massive nonsense, but waiting 8+ turns gives you a very long time with a massive target on your head, so you ma...

I mean, "have Zulaport Cutthroat effect, sac some dudes" seems like an easier setup than "connect with a specific 5 power trampler that's got a target on it's head" to me, but I could be wrong. 2 dudes gets you X equalling 6, which seems like a decent amount. I guess we could co...

The fact that it's an instant means that it can more easily follow a board wipe though, which is nice. It's nowhere near the level of an auto-include, but I don't think it's bad. So you're hoping your opponents play a board wipe AND there's a bunch of creatures in play AND you have RRBB+ available ...

Sanctuary Warden in particular is a pretty nice draw source in that it natively has "draw 2" stapled to it without requiring you to jump through really any hoops at all. If W keeps getting more cards like that, the color will be in good shape. Sanctuary Warden is 6 mana, mate. I would lik...

You may also want to take a gander at creatures with native blitz costs, since Henzie reduces *all* blitz costs, not just the ones he grants. Tenacious Underdog in particular strikes me as one that is low on the curve, but a great draw engine late.

Reality Ripple definitely seems due for a reprint since they're using phasing again. I'd really like them to do more with it. Except creatures that actually have phasing. They can be gone forever. The Land target probably keeps this from seeing a strict reprint. They've shied away from allowing bou...

Topiary Stomper is nice I guess. I can definitely see it seing t2 play. have 2 attacking in turn 5. As far as commander, Wood Elves , Farhaven Elf Yavimaya Dryad Yavimaya Granger and Solemn Simulacrum should come first in most ocasions, but if yo are in need of a 6th version of the effect... I'd sa...

It makes sense given the constraints. They've been burned by Birthing Pod before, and adding a whole additional sentence about needing to have a mana value of same/one more would have added a ton of words to an already crowded card. So they can't restrict it based on mana value, therefore they need ...

So what would "can't have anything opponent controls attached to it" be? Flavorfully sounds green.

I'd probably consider it a subset of Hexproof, but it's an ability that's so small it's not really defined in the color pie.
