That time I got key to the city'd on a lethal attack

I may or may not be mildly bittre towards the sixth allied colour Simic getting windmill bombs in every set. Lilbit :laugh:
Hmmm.... besides Prophet of Kruphix, and Oko, Thief of Crowns*, I'm pretty sure no playable Simic cards have ever been printed.
Well, not in response per se, but afterward if you weren't the target of the alpha strike, if it was fogged, etc. Unless vigilance (which is one of my favorite abilities).Mookie wrote: ↑4 years agoAdditionally, her (-2) Borrowing 100,000 Arrows ability is also pretty solid. Easiest to use in a more aggressive go-wide deck, since you can attack with a bunch of creatures, then draw cards off them. However, it's also a decent response to an opponent's alpha strike. Realistically, I don't think it's hard to draw 2-3 cards off it per activation.
<less about the card, more about my Magic experiences>
Green is the real culprit, here. Green has been getting extreme power creep for around a decade; their full-on claim of Fight in the colour pie (it should have been red!), the efficiency of giant creatures that almost always have powerful and relevant abilities, etc. It gets my goat a little that Simic is the only colour that got two mutates while every other enemy colour pair got one.
really is outta control. Gone are the days where people thought of it as the creature colour or that a 4/5 for four that gave something forestwalk was an amazing bomb in the rare slot. Nowadays it's thought that you're most likely mentally ill if you don't play . I don't like that, but I feel like I'm hitting "old man on the porch yelling at clouds in the sky" territory anymore.Sinis wrote: ↑4 years agoGreen is the real culprit, here.

One thing to note is that Aetherize doesn't target, so it could be a reasonable answer against voltron decks.
