But the possibilities are endless:Moonlighter wrote: ↑2 years agoI had a hard-ish time with the Walking Dead Secret Lair, but here, for whatever reason, I am really disliking this. I don't want to have to tap Gandalf to crew my DeLorean so I can put my Mandalorian from the graveyard to the battlefield in order to summon Benito Mussolini, and the Blue Meanie, and Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie, Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan, Spock, the Rock, Dock Ock, and Hulk Hogan. And it's just starting to feel a little like that when I see this stuff.

Secret Lair: Burger Time
The style of vintage cereal boxes would be perfect IMO.
The real question is whether Tony Tiger is Arahbo, Jedit Ojanen or Lord Windgrace.Dunharrow wrote: ↑2 years agoOh my play group was looking at cereal mascots as reskins of existing cardsLegend wrote: ↑2 years agoBut the possibilities are endless:Moonlighter wrote: ↑2 years agoI had a hard-ish time with the Walking Dead Secret Lair, but here, for whatever reason, I am really disliking this.

Secret Lair: Burger Time
Toucan Sam = Birds of Paradise
Count Chocula = Edgar Markov
Captain Crunch = Admiral Beckett Brass
For the record, they aren't legit.
Cards from Secret Lair X The Walking Dead will have in-Magic versions created and available on The List at a date to be announced.
Eh. Theres nothing really chase enough to be celebrated, and tbh this kind of just walks back some of the crappiness of the pay to play arrangement from earlier. Which is fine, but I think its more of a gesture than proof of a changed marketing scheme.Hermes_ wrote: ↑2 years agowell, here's some good (?) news https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/a ... 2021-06-07

Only if you don't run *any* other legendary vampires. Or, for that matter, just revive a Legendary Vampire. It also seems unlikely that *every* opponent will have a 4/4 flying blocker, so you can just direct her towards open opponents.MAGUSZANIN wrote: ↑2 years agoHonestly a bit disappointed with the new Olivia. With her stats and mana cost any flying blocker will almost certainly out mass her, and the revival target exiles when she dies.
Cool idea, but weak execution.
Like I said, cool idea, weak execution. Or at least weaker execution than I'd have strictly liked at 6 Mana. 6 Mana is a LOT after all.Wallycaine wrote: ↑2 years agoOnly if you don't run *any* other legendary vampires.

Yeah, it feels like a letdown flavorfully. Also, I'm frustrated with how parasitic they seem to make it. All the outlets are "whenever you sacrifice a Blood token" or "sacrifice a Blood token: X". I can't imagine they'll be used after this set, given how awkward their flavor is and how close they are to Clues, so why not let them work with Clues, Food and Treasure? I doubt they'd break anything, and it would allow some more interesting casual decks.Sporegorger_Dragon wrote: ↑2 years agoKinda disappointed with what the blood token does. I understand they made it that way because it played well and fulfilled the needs of the set, but still I feel it would have been more flavorful to have it drain 1 life (an opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life)
