Re: [2XM] Double Masters Name and Number Crunch

Enemy swords are almost assured to be in (as in 99.99999999~% sure) the only thing left is to actually see them revealed. That said, there are two spots between Fire and Ice and War and Peace, of which Light and Shadow will be one. Thoughts on the other? I don't know how others feel but could the K...

Re: Your favourite "big dumb fatties" generals

I use my tribal Elementals deck under Horde of Notions which throws lots of big fatties on the table and likes them to die so they can be yonked on the field again.

There are a total of 322 cards printed for the set. Please not I will update as soon as new information co...

Re: "Quirks That Define Your EDH Style"

For me it's gotta be a mixture of a few things: 1. I like HUGE chonks of mana. Preferably with lands rather than artifacts or creatures. As a consequence of this all bar one of my decks contain at least the colour green. 2. I prefer winning by turning sideways rather than any other method. 3. I like...

Re: What's your most unusual commander and/or deck?

For me it would have to be either my mono green Patron of the Orochi deck that tapdances for ridiculous amounts of mana ( Nyxbloom Ancient is an amazing recent addition for the deck) to spend on activated abilities gets odd looks as they don't immediately notice the effect on patron is symmetrical. ...

Re: Scarab God and Locust God

additional thoughts. I wonder why Bolas did not bring the Locust and Scarab gods when he went to war against Ravnica. Surely, having two additional gods would make his forces stronger. Or maybe Bolas is confident that his eternal army is already enough to win the war against the guilds of ravnica? ...

Re: [THB] Nyxbloom Ancient Command Zone Preview

To make it crazier mana reflection doubles the mana but cost 6 mana this cost 7 so only 1 more stinkin mana more than doubling it takes just 1 more mana to triple it wow. I mean the one difference here is that Nyxbloom Ancient is a creature (and only a 5/5 for 7 mana) which makes it a hell of a lot...

Re: [THB] Thryx, the Sudden Storm

I know reception to Thryx, the Sudden Storm in some parts hasn't been great because it's not a Kraken but the elemental tribal player in me wants this bad. discount on mana doublers and making them uncounterable is icing on a very sweet cake.

Hi Sheldon hope everything is going well with you!

As a fan of movies and TV shows I'm looking forward to seeing what Netflix does with the Magic the Gathering series. Is there a particular moment in Magic's history you'd like to see or character you'd like to be referenced?

Re: Open Mystery Booster thread

The more I see of the cards themselves the more I like it. To me it's a cool way of doing a chaos draft without trying to organise getting all the old sets so you don't have multiples whilst drafting. The playtester cards are somewhat silly but there are ideas I wouldn't mind becoming legal cards in...
