Worth noting at least, Ruinator is under a buck. Uro is $$.Mookie wrote: ↑1 year agoIt's somewhat interesting to contrast it with Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath, who has been a cross-format all-star. Uro has somewhat similar attributes - three mana, can be cast from the graveyard, needs you to exile other cards to cast it. Even if we ignore all of Uro's extra text (lifegain, card draw, ramp), Uro is still a superior card because it's more flexible - five cards of any type is much more manageable than three creature cards.
I seriously think someone on creative likes Lukka way more than the average person because he is one of the worst written characters and least interesting as well. But for some reason they have used him way more than someone like him should be. They should've just sidelined him after Ikoria.
What I wanna know is what he does now that he's landlocked. Unlike most people, Calix can't ponder the meaning of life as he was literally created as means to hunt Elspeth. That is the function for which he exists, no ifs ands or buts about it. So if Elspeth isn't on the same plane as him, his very existence is pointless. Does he end up like Ob Nixilis, fuming and sulking because he's trapped? Or is he just totally inert now?
A BG or BW Calix later on would be cool. We revisit Theros and he's become a godhunter, plotting and picking off demigods and gods alike. Maybe through manipulation of the gods' rivalries and paranoia, other times through outright violence until he's hamstrung the pantheon. Could be interesting. He's a murder machine, can't blame him for fulfilling his purpose.TheAmericanSpirit wrote: ↑1 year agoWhat I wanna know is what he does now that he's landlocked.

EDIT: Tyvar is pretty cool too, I guess. Elf tribal just really isn't my thing, but it's also probably good in Tazri 3.

Something, anything. This is a case of Chekov's Gun at this point and I demand to see the %$#% go off.kirkusjones wrote: ↑1 year agoA BG or BW Calix later on would be cool.

Maybe he becomes allies with Athreos and/or Phenax?
