[spacemonaut]

chetoos lore errata (issued by chetoos) is that he's from the East Coast, mind

In my mind, Devout of Ramos comes from a Rebel set where rebels are tutored to hand rather than simply put right onto the battlefield, and they're probably mainly in Naya.

anyway yay, primordials and ancients time!!!

i'm not ashamed to admit that I have big "just traveled abroad" energy at this time. it'll wear off. maybe.

IIW: vacation

I went and looked up the mythology of Ungnyeo and this is great work capturing it. She has to stay put to become a Human, and that's her son, and she makes everyone stronger!

Keep your tourism arc going.

Of these, I think Ilmarinen is my favourite: he's a blacksmith who can work over multiple turns to smith a truly great work. Any spare mana you've got, you can stash with Ilmarinen.

I'm not sure how to evaluate Louhi. As worded, timing restrictions wouldn't apply—you'd have to apply a duration somehow that establishes a permission window.

Väinämöinen is fun as a storyteller.

Treva! It's been a hot minute since we last saw her! It's unknown what fate befell her in the story, and I'm happy to see her alive and well.

I never thought I'd see a card that made a hand full of gainlands seem a little threatening, but I like the interaction, but it might need tuning, but I'm excited to see what it does.

Frampt! That weird lookin' guy! That jerk basically sending us on a quest to die to fuel his power without telling us that's what's going on!

I really like your take on him. It is after making a bit of progress and ringing the Bells of Awakening that Frampt appears, so I like that you basically quest to wake him up.

I think the third ability can't technically make copies of tokens? It probably should specify nontoken if it could. I like the fact this lets you "sell" stuff, too.

Nice work.

Deep-Song Ancient 5RR
Creature — Whale {M}

IIW: count something new

A red whale? A flying whale? A red flying whale that taps creatures? This is full of surprise but it makes sense somehow??? I don't think Red can even do that but it sure makes sense and a red flying mythic whale that pings everything down sure gets the benefit of the doubt and I wanna use this guy.


Winner: void_nothing
Next: Legendary creatures in the Izzet or Boros guilds

[void_nothing]

Oddly, there actually very much have been flying whales in Magic. Mostly on Kaladesh.

Thanks for the win, can't wait to see what you folks come up with for the two enemy-red guilds of Ravnica!

[chetoos]

Yeah, I should include "nontoken" in there, but it can't make token copies of tokens anyway. The idea there is that frampt turns your legendaries into undead, until they lose their minds.

[Ulka]

And breathe water instead of fire.

And breathe water instead of fire.

They most emphatically DO NOT.

Lol, OK, they hold air in a sac and then shoot it out the blowhole to get a refill. For some reason I was thinking gills, but I guess since Whales are mammals and not fish...
