Both of today's rocks are pretty sweet

If the ability affected the equipped creature, it would be 'If you do, it gains equip {3} and "Equipped creature gets +3/+3 and loses all other abilities".'
The position of the punctuation is pretty relevant here. As the joke goes, contrast 'Let's eat, grandma!' and 'Let's eat grandma!'
Why not? I mean, obviously not in the early game, but it's a little bit of reach once you have more mana then you need.CommanderMaster999 wrote: ↑9 months ago

Yeah, I don't cash in Mind Stone every game but I do it enough. I rarely run Commander's Sphere currently, but it was not rare to sac it either. I am specially interested in running it in a Kefnet the Mindful I'm putting together again when late game it doubles as a finisher as it transforms in into a 3 turn clock while acting as ramp earlyDunadain wrote: ↑9 months agoWhy not?

The new cards are okay. There's nothing super powerful here besides maybe Courageous Resolve, but even that is basically one upped by Angel's Grace. Even if by some miracle one of these cards manages to impact an Eternal format, they'll just print them all into dirt as UW set booster versions.Hermes_ wrote: ↑8 months agowell new lotr cards

This absolutely feels like a cycle; I hope the black one is good.Dunadain wrote: ↑8 months agoOjer Axonil, Deepest Might is some sweet design.
I'm typically not drawn to the "make burn work in EDH" commanders, and this one is no different but whole transform into a land when it dies, and transform it back if you meet certain conditions is really cool. I hope this will be a full 5 color cycle and that one of the other 4 is support for a strategy I like more.
Thank you, I thought I was going crazy when I saw people on reddit declaring this a new "voltron staple."DirkGently wrote: ↑8 months agoNazgûl Battle-Mace is just about the worst equipment I've ever seen. Holy crap that is so bad. It's 8 mana for basically nothing. The most relevant text for a Voltron deck is menace lmao.
That's probably the best place? You won't get anything great, it costs 8, and you're dependent on the equipped creature not dying, but that's about as good as it gets. Yuck.Dunadain wrote: ↑8 months agoHowever, the triggered ability does trigger on any permanent being sacced, so maybe Grave Pact type lists would want it?
eh, I have ways to cheat it into play and equip it for free but I run Akiri, Line-Slinger/ Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist voltron so the annihilator 1 will be interesting to me and I already have ways to get past creatures via other equipment, so menace is eh for me.DirkGently wrote: ↑8 months agoNazgûl Battle-Mace is just about the worst equipment I've ever seen.

Uuuh, I really like Huatli! As a passionate Mayael the Anima player back in the day she ticks all my silly stompy rampy Timmy boxes! <3Mookie wrote: ↑8 months agoMoar spoilers?(Breeches and the Jurassic World cards exist, but I don't have anything interesting to say about them)
- Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant looks like a nice upgrade over Myojin of Life's Web. Of course, by the point in time you can play an 8-drop (or cheat it out), you could also just cheat out whatever fatties you have in your hand... but still, seems fun, and there's probably something broken you can do with it.
- Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might isn't really my thing, but it is a cool design. I love the flip-lands from original Ixalan, so I'm happy to see them return.
- The Skullspore Nexus reminds me of The Great Henge, but otherwise looks significantly weaker. They do different things though - Great Henge wants you to spam cheap creatures, while Skullspore Nexus incentivizes fatties.
- Huatli, Poet of Unity seems... okay? An alternative to Gishath, Sun's Avatar if you want to build dinosaur tribal, I guess. It feels a little weird that she doesn't transform back after becoming a saga, unlike the saga praetors.

Annihilator 1 is so minor. If you're cheating every part of the cost I think there are dozens of more impactful equipment.Hermes_ wrote: ↑8 months agoeh, I have ways to cheat it into play and equip it for free but I run Akiri, Line-Slinger/ Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist voltron so the annihilator 1 will be interesting to me and I already have ways to get past creatures via other equipment, so menace is eh for me.
Rogue's Passage is one of the better tech lands ever made, and for many decks, this is an upgrade.DirkGently wrote: ↑8 months ago
Minas Morgul, Dark Fortress is okay I guess but it's kinda just weirdo Rogue's Passage.
