>>97927878
either something cheap with high power so you can take advantage of the token getting haste, or something that specifically wants to see another copy of itself die for a big effect
it's an awkward card, you are definitely going to want to run some cheap instant and sorceries so it feels less clunky

As a Brazilian who played from 2001 to 2005 and came back to the game 2 years ago and had a SHIT TON of garbage that went 10x on price since last year: thank you premodern schizos for making me mad bank, i would never complete my pauper pool of cards without you guys!
>>
>>97928709
There’s an obnoxius retard at my LGS that even if you have a basic, original version of the token, he will pull out his foil exclusive third reich edition full art tokens and shove across the table for you to use, and if you DARE placing a dice on his DOUBLE SLEEVED token he would seethe at you and ask to “please don’t place the dices on the card cause it will damage the foil”. My guy, if you don’t want dices being placed on your cards, don’t fucking flex them on people and stop ((((borrowing)))) your stupid tokens without being asked you FREAK.

this is true but I have a feeling your post is more directed at standard and pioneer where the illusion of a fair jank deck still exists because in modern or legacy you don't have time to complain about flexible removal, you just die the moment you stumble even a little bit against the average combo/ramp/unfair deck

No because it's too similar to YGO. If we remind people of trap cards they might start asking for horrible things like removal that actually answers a 1-drop.
>>
>POV: you just walked in on some family business.
>>
>>97930038
It's so weird how this is like the best art for Raffine and Ziatora's faces because their actual cards just don't show anything on either front. Raffine's is too shaded and Ziatora's too distant.
Honestly, apart from Xander, all the Family heads' cards are weirdly zoomed out, looking at them.
>>
>>97930063
I assume it was in the briefs given to the artists. My guess would be that the art director(s) wanted to clearly depict the characters in the context of the cityscape.
>>
>>97929735
It's a commander staple.
>>
>>97929735
Ok the Anabell one is kinda cool take on the idea. What set is that from?
>>
>>97930063
She gets a better view in Arena. There's also a medium shot of a statue in her likeness in the CG trailer for SNC.
>>
>>97929735
Lili tummy >
>>
>>97930202
...I still find Ziatora the most disconnected from her family. Like... What about "construction worker union" screams "DRAGON THAT WANTS MONEY" as their leader.
>>
>>97930251
Dragon destroys the city, construction contracts stay in demand. Simplest scam ever.

Now that I think of it, since it's been leaked there will be 11 pws in Fracture, I figure it's going to be 5 planeswalkers, one original reprint and one color shifted, plus BBEG Jace.
>>
>>97930289
>one original reprint and one color shifted
yup, that would make the most sense, I hope they reprint JTMS into pioneer
>>
>>97930251
IIRC she's characterized as a self-aggrandizing demagogue. Like a cult leader. What she gets from the Riveteers isn't just wealth and power, it's also a big bunch of people who will adore her and build big statues of her.
>>
>>97930311
They won't, it'll be a new Jace for that. Jace, Reality Sculptor or some shit.

Return to Rabiah.
>>
>>97930289
So we know one pair is Chandra. I don't think one pair will be Liliana, because she's desparked, so alt-Lili might be too. Garruk we know is one because of leaks. Ajani is probable as another. Who else?

There's a guy reading a scroll with a big demon hanging out over his shoulder and it literally says 悪魔の教示者 right there on the card with ruby text for kanjilets.

Honestly this. This right here could get me to buy sealed product again. Unfortunately that realm is problematic to kikes and their Israeli connections
>>
>>97930625
Yeah and the big demon is just roaring off to the side, barely even looking at the guy. It could just as easily be Circle of Protection.

I just realized, for a mechanic all about GOING FAST and SPEEDIN' and RACIN'
It's kinda weird that you can only increase your speed and cannot lose it, you'd think that'd be part of it
But then again, if the way it worked was "opponent hasn't taken damage in X turns" then you'd just end up with the day/night debacle again I actually really liked day/night but only when playing on Arena

>>
Ok, guys, I've been thinking. Maro said they'll be doing something they thought it wasn't possible for them in terms of tech and we saw some of those mirror shattering "leaks" so far and I think I figured out. They'll use that old pog tech to have to "cards" in the same card, like this gif. I can picture it already.

>Suggesting WotC doesn't just assume all players just double sleeve all the cards by default.
They'd be premium cards if they did this, so at least you'd always have it on a penny sleeve.
>>
>>97931292
Even in (double)sleeves, I'd be worried about wear and tear of shuffling making the "two-faced" surface blurred over time.

Haven't played legacy in a good while, but put this together for some FNMs around me. I kind of refuse to pay $40 for riddlers on principle though.

4 is the only one I'd genuinely call bad just because the art seems to have nothing to do with the card, it's just an angry oni. 9 just feels a little off flavor, why is there a pirate? I don't like the way the demon is looking at me on 7. 3 is fine but I docked points for the dreadful flavor text.

If the scarecrows in Dusmourn are made from people who replaced their body parts with random stuff to protect themselves from the House, why are they only made of like reeds and driftwood instead of materials and knickknacks that might be found within a modern living space?

>>
>>97930669
I mean, there's, like, one card in the set that actually reduces speed. What's more annoying about it is that it's only once per your turn. If it was each instance of damage during your turn, it'd probably feel a lot better as a mechanic

>>
>>97932746
>you may
But think of the poor arena chunguses:((
>>
>>97933633
MOM & MAT happened and then the Omenpaths became a thing, explorations of the multiverse's new status quo had largely been localized to a single plane at a time in the first few sets of this era, so in terms of narrative it probably made a lot of sense to have a set which tied several planes together in both the written storytelling and artistic presentation.
>>
>>97932167
It's so funny that this is post-Cori-Steel/Vivi/Proft's. Does WotC even maintain the pretense of having a playtesting team anymore?
>>
>>97934000
Playtesting is only done with Commander in mind.
>>
>>97933633
It is the biggest clusterfuck and complete waste of multiple settings (at the same time) in recent memory. The race was pointless, the non Kaladesh planes were barely used and they spent a ton of time fleshing out the different racing factions and we will never see or use any of them ever again. Not to mention that the set its self is chock full of vehicles, which were already approaching the limit of design space before the set was even in development so what we got was 20% of the set being completely useless from a gameplay / card consideration perspective at a baseline.

Absolutely awful, abhorrent and wasteful all around.
>>
>>97934045
Clearly the fix would have been 2 more Aetherdrift sets so a full block could flesh out the setting that people wanted more of!

That's his tail.
>>
>>97933633
Amonkhet because they were important to the story.
Muraganda to test the waters on how the audience likes the set. They even included vanillas since they don't want to focus on that if it gets a full set.

That's past MH1 so not quite. I just despise the 2015 border and the philosophy shift to endless ETB value stapled onto creatures that you see rear its head even back at innistrad. 2015 is just a good end cutoff for me like premordern.

sometimes I wonder if arena of glory was pioneer legal, would kroxa see more play like phlage?
>>
>>97935732
Most pushed attack trigger creature would tbqh, though in Phlage's case being able to deal 12 damage ans stabilizing (and often times ending the game) against aggro is one of the reason why the card is so good.

arena would help a lot but what kroxa really needs is fetchlands

I think he's implying that the VVhite NVRDIC gods got DEI'd and became brown, which is a metafictional loss to George Soros' social incentives. The joke sort of misses because WOTC needs no financial incentive to be woke, they do it for free because they've always been true believers
>>
>>97935620
Kaldheim's gods are weird because like they're just sort of "immortal people". Which I guess fits with Norse mythology, where they're more just "people that live in a magical place" in the myths.

>>97932691
That would require the designers and writers to think about the setting beyond just which cool ass references they wanted to shove in.

Godhood in Kaldheim seems to be something like a mode of existence that can be attained by basically anyone. Like, it's shown that one of the elf gods was a regular person at first, and her apotheosis somehow involved giving up her sight. And one of the members of the "human" gods was never human at all but rather some Cosmos entity that took the shape of one.

At my prelease last week, I took advantage of my opponents incompetence a few times and I'm wondering your thoughts. I attacked with everything and pumped one of my creatures, my opponent played a bunch of spells and none of my damage went through. But at the end of combat, my opponent said I pass the turn, I didn't correct him and proceeded to untap and draw. I won easily. Another game my opponent was keeping track of both life totals on his phone, I was using just a D20 for myself. I was at 7 and he had me at 11, because he failed to remember to count the last 4 damage last turn. I took 6 when I noticed the discrepancy and the turned my D20 to 5. I then swung for lethal with my unblockable snooping page and won. Had that 4 damage been counted the game would have been a draw. Also had an opponent use a 39 card deck because he failed to shuffle in a card. I felt that I could of pressed and claimed an illegal deck, but I didn't.

Is it important to point out your opponents mistakes? Or do you just let them mess up to your own benefit? I got a nice amount of packs at the end, so it seemed worth it to me.
>>
They're still cute.
>>
>>97937691
IRL everyone plays best of 3, so decks that are weak to control can adapt to it with an intelligently chosen sideboard.
Playing against control is an interesting and fun to develop skill. They're only really disliked by players who don't have a lot of experience.

Rabiah is completely out. Definitionally, per the Rabiah Scale. Wildfire probably will never be in, but it's less unlikely than Rabiah.
>>
>>97937722
If my deck is a midrange slop pile, how do I adapt to it, exactly?
Dead turns only benefit him, removal is always 1-to-1, ETBs don't happen and wide boards always trade down in mana and he can always filter for good cards
It doesn't help that 90% of people run U decks so I have slight Island fatigue at this point
>>
>>97937851
Ask yourself why it would be a draw.
I'll tell you that it's not, and it's pretty easy to figure out why it's not from there. Read the rules and learn how SBAs work if you don't already know.
In general, you shouldn't cheat, or angle shoot, because it means you're a bad player. A good player doesn't need to pull this kind of shit. Do you see Duke or Mengucci playing like this?
>>
>>97937869
Midrange slop piles win by doing 1-for-1 trades until they can 2-for-1. So just do that?
Also, run manlands and cavern of souls
>>
>>97937921
Oh and HAND DISRUPTION. Run Thoughtseize or format equivalent. Not that gay ass bat either, real hand disruption
>>
>>97937921
I do run cavern, it's a tribal deck, but they usually have demolition fields lubed up; 2-for-1s don't happen because they can choose what to counter and what to let through (and then destroy), I guess I should aim for even more ETBs? I think my main issue is that the onus of playing perfectly is on me rather than them, they play with full information every turn (they don't play cards on their turn) so they can always make the correct decision
B discard sounds fun however
>>
>>97937902
The damage is dealt and when damage is dealt I lose one life at the exact same time. Both players at zero when SBA check for life totals. I wouldn't call it cheating, I just opting not to help my opponents when they fumble. But I guess even at the worlds they allow take backsies, so you're correct there.
>>
>>97937921
1-for-1? That sounds like something that isn't FIRE enough. My 1-drop forces my opponent to trade 2-for-1 unless they opened exactly Spell Pierce and went first.
>>
>>97937961
>at the exact same time. Both players at zero when SBA check for life totals
Wrong. Page has a triggered ability. It uses the stack. Go look up how that works.
>>
>>97937952
>it's a tribal deck
If it's a tribal deck it's probably a slow aggro deck, not a midrange deck
but yes they can remove your stuff, of course they can. You have currently been intimidated into the "they always have it" headspace, but they don't always have it.
Honestly, try playing some control. I think the UW version is pretty wildcard cheap. You'll quickly learn how to deal with that sort of deck, because people will deal with you.

>>97938069
In my defence, it's easy to fall into the "they have it" mindset when he has so much draw and filtering, it feels like past turn 4/5 he's basically guaranteed to have what he needs if he's sniffed out the kinda deck you're playing: and I consider myself lucky since my deck is an absolute shitpile that is inexistent in the current meta, so I've definitely won before because the opponent didn't have a clue what the fuck I was even doing.
Another anon in another thread recommended I give RDW a try since it's much more cathartic when you get a nut draw, and much it's faster to determine whether you're winning or not, and it definitely feels much more honest than this
Thank you for your insight obviously, anon, wouldn't wanna discredit you

>>
>>97938608
for starters, seething song is banned in historic, so it's not like I can choose one over the other
but in my experience jeska's will is pretty damn good, since free interaction isn't very popular in historic, you're encouraged to combo off as early as possible, your opponent will usually have 3~6 cards in hand so as long as you have ruby or ral in play, it's at worst a +1 mana, and when you don't need mana, you can go for cards, the flexibility is awesome
