| Anaran Squire |
PH | Yeah just checked, thought there was an ajani's mantra type enchantment but that's been cut (12 years ago.) |
| Anaran Squire |
KS | Blessed Pilgrim is the only proper repeatable enabler (he's the set's Goblin Fireslinger!). Otherwise it's mostly lifelink creatures so you still have to attack (and possibly lose the creature) to get the Soulsong bonus in your turn. (12 years ago.) |
| Anaran Squire |
PH | The thing with soulsong is that once you have an enabler down, you can rely on having it active every turn. Bloodthirst in M12 got around that by only having a couple of repeatable enablers (staff of ages, goblin fireslinger) and then relying on attacking or burn. (12 years ago.) |

| Battlefield Oracle |
SOK | He is actually really strong, better than he looks on paper. Fixes your next draw, gets big, sets up other top of the library tricks. I like him a lot, although he kept dying before I could actually attack with him most of the time in testing! (12 years ago.) |
| Heroic End |
SOK | I've seen it played twice, both times it was cast on a small guy to trade with a big guy and gain some life. Card disadvantaqge, but flavourful removal in green. (12 years ago.) |
| Caliph of Tyrosh |
SOK | It is a triggered ability so it will go on the stack, and you would resolve it once your looting is complete. So if you discard a card, then draw a card, you complete your looting by drawing a card, and then each player would discard their hand and draw 4. (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
KS | This would be an interesting change. He'd be weaker normally (since he's trade with a 2/2) but be way better with things that increased his power. Got to be worth a try, if only because it stops it being a reprint! (12 years ago.) |

| Impossible Horror |
KS | Actually, maybe it would work better to go the other way that Paul suggested and put this on a smaller guy like a 2/3 flier for 1U? Then the common reach creature can at least block him. Plus being cheaper will let him set up Portent more effectively. (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
AC | Maybe 1/2 then? (12 years ago.) |
| Heroic End |
KS | Very possibly, though we haven't really seen it in action yet. I'd assume this will mostly be cast on a little guy, so you'll at least lose a creature yourself and the lifegain is likely to be minimal. (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
KS | In context he's probably fine as an uncommon, though in a 'normal' set he'd be pretty busted. There are a lot less spells than creatures, and a lot of them already have Portent. This guy is kind of important because he gives White and Red decks more reason to want to combine with Blue as they have no Portent spells naturally. (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
KS | Double Strike with Lifelink is a pretty cool combiantion, but on a 1/1 it's going to be a bit awkward since if you can't pump him he trades with a Sanctuary Cat! (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
PH | yeah he's a bit like oracle of mul daya isn't he? (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
KS | Isn't a 4/4 flier for 3 even more of an issue on turn 3 than a 3/4? Also we already have a 4/4 uncommon blue flier. What about an unblockable guy? Something like Phantom Warrior or Latch Seeker so it attacks pretty well but dies to pretty much anything and is nowhere near as good on defense? (12 years ago.) |
| Caliph of Tyrosh |
AC | how does it stack with the looters? (12 years ago.) |
| Heroic End |
AC | Is just G too cheap? (12 years ago.) |
| Dalgath Thug |
AC | Agree, deathtouch on a 4/2 seems odd. a 4/2 with unearth seems pretty decent for a black common (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
AC | i'm sure this has been mentioned, but this guy feels rare (12 years ago.) |
| Graveshade |
AC | dont know why, but this feels uncommon to me (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
AC | Maybe make this a 1/1 but double strike, lifelink? (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
SOK | A big non-flier does not really feel very blue though. We could go with Paul's idea, something like: Impossible Horror - 1UU - Flying. At the beginning of your upkeep put a card from your hand on top of your library, if you don't sacrifice ~. 4/4 (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
KS | The big difference between this guy and Stitched Drake/Fettergeist is that if they get killed it doesn't really matter, whilst this actually costs you a card if you play it early and it dies. However, if they don't have an answer it seems pretty dominant on turn 3. Maybe this should be more a big non-flier instead since that would make it easier to stop and we already have Portentious Shrike as a potentially undercosted flier. (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
PH | I'm not so sure the drawback is that bad tbh, you're essentially giving up your T4 draw step (in an ideal scenario). On the play he's a huge "deal with me or die" type threat, and the answers to him may not be online for a while.
Stitched drake is a genuine T5/6 type of threat, and can be played around to a certain degree by not trading with their early drops (for example) and needs an enabler to hit T3. Fettergeist dissuades you from dumping your hand as a followup.
Could go the other route, make him bigger (maybe 4/4 for 2UU?) and make the drawback an upkeep cost? Similar to living tsunami who ended up being a great landfall enabler. (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
SOK | All valid points Paul. The drawback on this guy is way worse than Stitched Drake, unless you have foresight, and a portent card, and even then you probably can't make use of it if you drop him on turn 3. I had the chance to cast him on turn 3 a few times, but ended up not doing it, he was much cooler as a cheap mid game drop that also gave you a chance at portent'ing something. I probably should have just tried throwing him down turn 3 to see how much of a beating he might be. Also compare to Fettergeist, I grant you he might be a little stronger than that, but he is basically a 3/4 flyer for 1UU and discarding a card. We can always try him as a 3/3 if people are really worried. (12 years ago.) |
| Impossible Horror |
PH | bit concerned over this guy as a 3/4 evasion dude with a negligible drawback is very very good. Stitched Drake can't be cast on T3 without help, this can be cast T3 every time, Emancipation Angel tends to set you back a turn and wouldn't even trade with this.
If he's an enabler, recommend making him smaller (2/2 at most) and upping the cost. If he's a large flying threat then make him a 4/4 and up the cost.
You could also template as:
"As an additional cost to cast this put a card from your hand face up on top of your library. ~ enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters where X is the CMC of that card" (12 years ago.) |

KS | I know I shouldn't be making anything else now (especially at green uncommon!) but while picking my green uncommons I realized there weren't enough spells! And the cards that let you chose what goes on top of your library have led to some of the best plays in the games so far. Happy to just immediately retire it if nobody thinks it's worth having!

| Natural Instinct |
KS | Putting this up to actually cost the same as Divination! At least one player will have Foresight most of the time, so this will usually be an instant-speed draw 2 that either ruins opposing Portent or filters a useless card out of your deck! (12 years ago.) |
| Natural Instinct |
KS | Cost changed from G to 2G (12 years ago.) |
| Natural Instinct |
KS | That's a good point! We have so much Portent that this is really easy to set up - and when you cast this on yourself with a land you don't need on top, it's basically a green Ancestral Recall! (12 years ago.) |

| Dreamriver Boa |
KS | I'm not convinced this should be in. It's quite annoying to deal with and it punishes you for playing with our biggest set mechanic. Plus it doesn't fit any of green's themes at all. It is the only regenerating green creature, though! (12 years ago.) |

SOK | As this is almost our only artifact/enchanment removal, might want to make this more available for other colours. Maybe 2G casting cost for a 2/1? (12 years ago.) |

| Ransack the Shelves |
KS | This is my favorite red drawing uncommon. The looting ones are all a bit similar and all cost a bit much to combine with Mindstorm effectively. This can get you a double discard from the madness for free. Plus it's fun to do the splitting! (12 years ago.) |
| Hot Under the Collar |
KS | This is pretty crazy when you can cast it for 2. It kills nearly any creature or is basically Lava Axe. The normal cost is really high, though. If it couldn't hit players it might be okay. (12 years ago.) |
| Staff of the Towers |
PH | Yeah true, I wanted something to represent breaking the staff and making everything go kaboom, I'll have a think... (12 years ago.) |
| Hot Under the Collar |
SOK | Potentially might need to bump madness cost to 2R to lower red power level a bit (12 years ago.) |
| Staff of the Towers |
KS | I don't think more than five abilities would actually fit on the card! Obelisk of Alara was barely readable. This has some really good abilities as it is, and it's going to be pretty hard to play all five colours in this format anyway. (12 years ago.) |
| Staff of the Towers |
PH | was thinking about having a WUBRG ability as well
WUBRG, exile ~ : for each permanent type on the battlefield exile up to one target permanent of that type (12 years ago.) |
| Staff of the Towers |
KS | I don't think it needs the untap ability at all. Obelisk of Alara could only do one and it was still pretty nuts! You'd need 8 mana to do two in a turn anyway. (12 years ago.) |
| Rambunctious Cyclops |
KS | I think we need a Cyclops at uncommon and this seems to be the only one left. The ability helps you win and he's a great blocker until you get it. Has my vote for an uncommon slot. (12 years ago.) |
| Natural Instinct |
KS | I quite like this as a spell option for green at uncommon since it removes your lands when you don't want them on top or ruins opposing foresight. This might even be better as a common, possibly as a straight swap with Heroic End. (12 years ago.) |
| Bearback Rider |
KS | I like this guy, but with the only two uncommon Portent creatures also at three mana he's probably not going to make it. (12 years ago.) |
| Arena Champion |
KS | This guy is pretty awesome. Gets my vote for green uncommon. (12 years ago.) |
| Centaur Nullifier |
KS | Pretty much an automatic inclusion in green uncommon I think. (12 years ago.) |

| Carromantic Candle |
PH | How about making it a 1/1 dude instead? (12 years ago.) |
| Carromantic Candle |
KS | This might actually be too good! It's the best Foresight enabler since it has such a low cost, fits in any deck, is really hard to destroy, and cycles so it's never a dead draw. Should probably actually be an uncommon! (12 years ago.) |

I'd like to make this guy a 3/3 rather than 2/4 as green is going to be our aggro colour. (12 years ago.) |
| Warden of Arges |
KS | Though Foresight and Portent seem kind of redundant together, this is either giving you Foresight when you don't have it or being cast off the top when you do. (12 years ago.) |

KS | New card: 3G Creature - Cyclops C Foresight (Play with the top card of your library revealed)

Portent 1G (If this is face up and on top of your library, you may play it for its portent cost.) 1/1 (12 years ago.) |
| Bearback Rider |
KS | This could be a Portent creature, though that would make him pretty wordy. He'll probably end up being replaced with a common Flash & Portent creature anyway. (12 years ago.) |
| Graven Servitor |
KS | This has actually turned out to be really good - mostly because he's a big guy in a world of small ones. (12 years ago.) |
| Mass Conscription |
SOK | So I think I managed to portent this 3 times last night. Was pretty good, but twice it cost the same as the actual creature I fetched, but was at least a free card while setting up my library. You have to be real careful how you stack your library as it is easy to forget you won't be able to portent the guy you leave on top unless you have loads of mana. Didn't seem broken, but then we have no Titans or 8/9 drops in our set so hard to break. (12 years ago.) |

| Amorphous Mass |
PH | how about swapping the the mass and the revealed card until EoT if it's a permanent (& give haste if a creature) - that way you get the sweet ETB effects (12 years ago.) |
| Amorphous Mass |
KS | Might make sense to exile since it's not copying things that are in play. Would be a bit awkward to exile a sweet ETB effect, though! Copying multiple things at once would cause way too many rules headaches and is definitely out! (12 years ago.) |
| Amorphous Mass |
PH | if it exiles can it be a copy of all permanents that it is exiling or is that far too insane? (12 years ago.) |

AC | If the ability is not EOT, may I suggest exiling the card so players can remember what he is at all times? (12 years ago.) |

SOK | I was thinking about this guy last night too. He is definitely the sleeper best common in red, way better than looting charm most of the time. I agree he would be fine either as a 2/2 with single loot, or maybe a 1/1 with double loot. I think single loot and 2/2 is best as then he is viable for red aggro too. (12 years ago.) |
| Mirror Ghoul |
AC | How about making it lose all abilities as well? Or is that too strong? (12 years ago.) |

| Ghastlord of the Black Tower |
TB | If he was a 4/3 he could only trade with a Soulsong-ed Exaltation of Larks or an active Mindleech Avian. Yet he still blocks all fliers in the format and gets in for four and has a highly relevant ability (can draw you four cards in the right deck!) (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
TB | I think this guy is nailed on for inclusion. Less annoying than your average wrath effect, and with drama. (12 years ago.) |
| Amorphous Mass |
TB | This card is kind of ridiculous but fun. And very powerful once you have foresight going. (12 years ago.) |
| Seerlord of the Blue Tower |
TB | I wonder if this guy suffers from the same problem as Spellslinging Augur. The themes of the set push you to make his ability worse in deckbuilding (because you max out on cards that have Portent anyway). (12 years ago.) |
| Blind the Eye |
KS | I ended up using this to ruin Portent set-ups so many times. Even if it was for the original one card it would still be great. This effect can't really be said to be overpowered, though! (12 years ago.) |

KS | Could always remove the Foresight so you have to work for the ability. (12 years ago.) |

KS | This is really good despite not looking like much. The double looters are ridiculous with Mindstorm and graveyard interactions. Looting Charm is probably fine because it costs a card, but this comes with a 2/2 for only one more mana! I think he should be reduced to only loot once since increasing the cost makes him pretty useless at getting madness and/or mindstorm. That or cut him completely... (12 years ago.) |

SOK | The thinking that it is an enabler for B & R opponents isn't quite right in my opinion, but I do agree that it is fairly unexciting and will probably get cut from maindecks. Perhaps we can shift one of our popular uncommons back down to C to fill its slot? (12 years ago.) |
| Ruin Forager |
SOK | Costing 1G would make him a crappy accelerator though. I kind of preferred the Foresight version, as it gave you a really cheap enabler. Then you could make it a 0/1 for G and it would probably be fine. (12 years ago.) |

| Ransack the Shelves |
TB | I actually think the way this plays out it is quite a lot better than Divination. It's more consistently "pretty good" than Divination and if you do truly need a miracle you can play that game too. I'd consider putting it to 3R where it is still very playable I think. (12 years ago.) |

T, Sacrifice a Creature: Gain 1 life (12 years ago.) |
| Soulstoke Engine |
KS | Main issue with moving it to Artifact is that only the White deck will really want it since it does nothing for the other decks. Maybe it should also have "T, Sacrifice a Creature: Gain 1 life" as well so it becomes playable in pretty much any deck but amazing in the White deck? (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Moving out of red, as we have a ton of red rares, and very few artifact rares to choose from. (12 years ago.) |

KS | The extra Portent ability is pretty crazy! Interested to see how this plays out. (12 years ago.) |
| Ancestral Odyssey |
KS | That Portent ability is pretty awesome. If only it wouldn't be totally busted if you could have both... (12 years ago.) |
| Dalgath Thug |
KS | Not sure how I never noticed the P/T change here, but his new stats seem a bit odd on a Deathtouch guy since it's mostly good on little guys who trade up or high-toughness guys who survive combat. A 4/2 can trade with most things in the set anyway! (12 years ago.) |

Portent UUU (12 years ago.) |
| Ghastlord of the Black Tower |
SOK | While I agree with some of your views on this Tom (tapping out to put a Portent card on top is pretty crappy), I'm not so sure that a 5/5 flier for 6 at rare is really breaking limited too hard. We need to have some top end creatures in our set, so that green has something to ramp too, and control decks have something to finish with. Everything we have so far is pretty much weenie or midrange, while not being all that aggressive. This guy does need some fixes though (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Hah of course, forgot about the R from going to graveyard even on normal cast!
I like it even more now. (12 years ago.) |

KS | It is still a Pyretic Ritual when you cast it, so it might have some narrow applications outside of getting a free red mana when discarded! (12 years ago.) |

| Stalking Boar |
KS | Like this guy as a combined Portent/Top Card guy since you get something useful no matter when you get Foresight.

| Embryo Thief |
TB | I'm not sure that this guy and Corrupt Seer are all that similar. Yes, they both have Foresight. But this guy makes your draw *worse* to drain and Corrupt Seer costs you life to make it better. Corrupt Seer at Rare and 1B might work, though :) (12 years ago.) |

That's probably a better way of doing it, but I just thought it would be pretty good to put a bunch of cards back on your library then chain them back out again! (12 years ago.) |

| Cyclopean Nihilator |
SOK | Name changed from Nihilator Cyclopean Undertaker Unnatural Selector to Cyclopean Nihilator (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
SOK | Ah I think I misunderstood your comment. I see what you are saying about only able to do it in the one turn cycle. Once you draw the one on top of your library you need any portent card to start the cycle again for that turn. Yes maybe they are okay. Instant speed ones are still potentially dangerous :-) (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
SOK | Let me walk through it so I understand how Auspice works.
Setup: you have 1 Mitecrafting on top of your library and 1 in the graveyard, you have 4 untapped Islands and a Foresight card
1. Play Mitecrafting from top of library, Auspice from one in the yard triggers
2. Put Mitecrafting from yard on top of library
3. Resolve original Mitecrafting
4. Repeat process three more times (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
KS | be a bit good if you can set it up - but are loads of 0/1s really worth never having another draw? As long as they're not crazy effects we're probably okay. Playtesting will reveal all! (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
KS | I think they'd suck a bit if you only had Auspice and you couldn't cast them from the top. Also you seem to think that you can infinitely chain Auspice spells if you have two but that can never happen provided they're all sorceries as even if you chain two into each other only one ends up on top of your library and you end up drawing it. If you had three you could set up a chain that way but then you'd never draw another card again so it may (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
SOK | Like the new name! (12 years ago.) |
| Nihilator Cyclopean Undertaker Unnatural Selector |
SOK | Name changed from Abortionist to Nihilator Cyclopean Undertaker Unnatural Selector (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
SOK | These 1 mana Portent+Auspice spells all look pretty scary to me as with two copies you can repeat them for as long as you have mana and Foresight, each turn. While this one doesn't look as oppressive as the tap one, it still seems pretty strong. Is it worth experimenting with cards that only have Auspice and not Portent or are they rubbish? (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
PH | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Mitecrafting |
KS | Considering bringing back Auspice to help Blue focus on spells over creatures. This makes loads of chump-blockers. Woo-hoo! (Pretty sweet with Vault Prophet, though!) (12 years ago.) |

| Embryo Thief |
PH | Name suggestions :
Nihilator
Cyclopean Undertaker
Unnatural Selector (12 years ago.) |
| Mind Broken Mage |
SOK | Do we want to move him to uncommon then, so there is a good chance of always seeing at least 1 in a draft? (12 years ago.) |
| Portentious Shrike |
KS | I can't understand why this isn't an absolute certain inclusion. He's the signature Portent creature, he makes Portent a viable archetype by himself, and he gives blue some actual board presence that none of its other cards can match. (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
KS | Absolutely fits in everything. The name is still kind of disgusting, though. (12 years ago.) |
| Soulstoke Engine |
SOK | I still think we should make this an artifact since we have holes in the skeleton there, and this does nothing for red at all. (12 years ago.) |
| Corrupt Seer |
SOK | I think Abortionist over this guy. Could always move Corrupt Seer to rare for now to see if there is room there? (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
SOK | I'm not sure we can fit both Abortionist and Corrupt Seer into B uncommons. They are filling very similar roles of foresight enabling and top of deck manipulation. Only Abortionist helps with B self mill and creatures in graveyard theme, so he would get my vote over Corrupt Seer. (12 years ago.) |
| Soulstoke Engine |
KS | Surely this can move to rare? We don't want multiples showing up in drafts because it only works in one specific archetype but it makes a great build-around card for that archetype so it's pretty much exactly what we want in rare. (12 years ago.) |

TB | In my limited experience 2 life is the least amount you can use because 1 life is basically negligible. But this is in addition to another real cost so maybe. (12 years ago.) |
| Looting Charm |
TB | I don't think we have room. It's cutting we want, not adding! (12 years ago.) |
| Looting Charm |

| Reverent Captain |
SOK | I had to work pretty hard to set this up. Without Sunsoul Lark, actually setting up Soulsong was pretty tricky. I had to wait until I had two creatures I could cast in a turn so I could get the trigger from the Soul Warden guy to allow for the Soulsong on this. He only becomes really good when combined with the Astral Slide guy. Could still move to rare if we kind find space for him at uncommon. (12 years ago.) |
| Evervine |
SOK | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Great Tower Bat |
TB | We could also make him a 2/1, or add a mana cost, or both. We can't make him a rare because the possibility of bat versus bat battle has to exist! (12 years ago.) |
| Radical Mage |
TB | I think random discard is just awful. If you are holding Empty the Libraries you can't cast this guy even though he's an awesome enabler for it. I prefer reducing stats over any other change but let's keep him as is for now? (12 years ago.) |

KS | I prefer this straight-up looter to Researcher because he doesn't do random discard. Red isn't really trying to be Hellbent in this set - if anything you want to hold multiple cards in hand so you can discard them all in one go for a giant Mindstorm effect or Wastrel's Wrath. (12 years ago.) |
| Radical Mage |
PH | Make the discard random? (12 years ago.) |
| Great Tower Bat |
PH | It was a bit obnoxious, as late game you can hold back lands and essentially trade a land for their dude.
Maybe lose flying? (12 years ago.) |
| Deepwater Grasper |
PH | still think this should be a Jellyfish Wizard (12 years ago.) |
| Empty the Libraries |
TB | We discussed making this a common. Possibly as a switch with Pageflame. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
SOK | We already have a common red looter: Manic Researcher (12 years ago.) |
| Radical Mage |
SOK | There is an argument that he should cost 2R, but you really need your looting spells to be low cost so that you can then cast your Empty the Libraries and pay for your Wastrel's Wrath triggers. I think he is okay as is, if we are really worried, can always make him a 2/1 or a 1/1. (12 years ago.) |
| Vital Librarian |
TB | Could potentially bring the cost down now. (12 years ago.) |
| Bound to Serve |
TB | I have still yet to see this played although I agree with the three likers in principle! (12 years ago.) |
| Reverent Captain |
TB | Is this too bomby? Could go to rare? (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
TB | Making splashier for uncommon. (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
TB | Cost changed from 2W to WW; Toughness changed from 1 to 2 (12 years ago.) |
| Looting Charm |
TB | If this "only has one mode" should we change it to a straight looting spell? I'm worried about Great Tower Bat but this is not a great answer anyway. (12 years ago.) |
| Radical Mage |
TB | Does that mean he is too good? (12 years ago.) |
| Soulstoke Engine |
TB | Searing Meditation is gone. This needs to be splashable. (12 years ago.) |

TB | I've retired Wastrel's Wrath and Hissing Conspirator in favor of this guy. (12 years ago.) |

TB | But was it too good? Pretty sure Jim described this as, "obnoxious". (12 years ago.) |
| Ambassadorial Garb |
TB | Needs to be cut or changed if we are dropping Wizards as a minor theme. (12 years ago.) |
| Banish |
TB | Needs to be changed if we are dropping Wizards as a minor theme. (12 years ago.) |
| Mind Broken Mage |
SOK | I only really transitioned into the red looting deck at the end of 2nd booster, so probably just missed him. Also there was a pack that had 4 red cards for the deck in it, so he may have been a casualty of that. I think he is probably the fairest version of the effect. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
TB | Moving to common for now so the debate can be had: common/uncommon/cut. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
TB | Rarity changed from U to C (12 years ago.) |
| Ancestral Odyssey |
TB | I've had it cast against me three times and all three times it was the turn not even close so agree with the above analysis. (12 years ago.) |
| Lostsight Counsel |
TB | Best thing about this card is Kieran forgetting to play it. It's clearly awesome and although it is kind of a gimmick I really do think it deserves a slot. Less points for Mills trying to rules lawyer that he was allowed to cast it from Kieran's sideboard ... :S (12 years ago.) |
| Ghastlord of the Black Tower |
TB | First of all this guy is a 5/5 flier for 6. So he's a bomb right off the bat and I don't like bombs. He's also exceedingly wordy. Plus with all the Portent in the set it feels like he is doing Portent setup with his ETB effect but because you just tapped out/tapped low for a 5/5 flier it's really actually Vampiric Tutor. So you make a 5/5 flier and Vampiric Tutor but you feel cheated. And I'm pretty sure your opponent feels cheated, too! So that's my vote against or vote for changes at least. I must admit that this is exactly the kind of card that Wizards DOES print, but part of their reasoning for bombs like this in limited is that they give bad players wins against good players. For our intended audience that sounds like a bug not a feature. Note: this card was in my deck not my opponents' when I formed these opinions :) (12 years ago.) |
| Tomb Whispers |
SOK | Shifting up to uncommon for now (12 years ago.) |
| Tomb Whispers |
SOK | Rarity changed from C to U (12 years ago.) |
| Ancestral Odyssey |
SOK | As much as I like the design of this card, I think that you almost always give them the turn. Maybe we'll see after another playtest. I also like how we almost have a cycle of triple of the same mana rares. (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
SOK | I like him too, especially as he provides the opposite effect of the green guy (creatures & lands), it is really nice to have the symmetry, in fact I think I'd like to make them both uncommon or both rare. (12 years ago.) |
| Tomb Whispers |
TB | I think we're definitely concerned this is too good. I also got it confused with the 2B discard spell three times last night. Will be easier with art but if we change this it would be nice to change it off 2B for idiots like me! (12 years ago.) |
| Scrypulse |
TB | Strong card, I think. It's hard to directly measure it's impact on the game but dropping three lands to the bottom and drawing Graveshade (fourth card) with eight creatures in the bin last night was pretty cool. (12 years ago.) |
| Ruminate |
TB | Fills the slot. Solid. (12 years ago.) |
| Corrupt Seer |
TB | I'm sad to say it but using this guy's ability is probably usually a bad idea! It really wants to be 1.5 life! Any chance we could make it "to graveyard" instead of "to bottom" or does that break him? I don't *think* we want to test 1 life ... just too strong then. I wonder if he shines in WB where you can gain some of the life you are burning? Still 100% definitely an inclusion for me but currently I don't see him as first pickable at all. (12 years ago.) |
| Deepwater Grasper |
TB | Never sad to see this, yet he's not as good as Mist Raven or even Aether Adept, really. Definite inclusion. (12 years ago.) |
| Deepwater Grasper |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Time's Bondage |
TB | Only got this out once last night and already had a Foresight effect in play so hard to say but certainly works in the available slot for U. Hinted to me that we should reduce the amount of Foresight and possibly up the amount of Portent in the set. (12 years ago.) |
| Withering Decay |
TB | This card is just as cool as we hoped. Definite inclusion. (12 years ago.) |
| Noxious Fen |
TB | This was very playable in last night's draft. Like it. (12 years ago.) |
| Coffin Breaker |
TB | Just all kinds of good. Nailed on. (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |
TB | I really enjoyed this guy last night. He especially loves instants because you can wait until you untap before you draw to cast them. Fun. I want to keep him in if we can. (12 years ago.) |
| Dissonance |
TB | No one is going to accuse this card of being crazy powerful but I think it's nailed on for inclusion. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
KS | I thought this was moving to common to give red a common looter? Makes a lot more sense when it's red's major looting creature. (12 years ago.) |
| Blind the Eye |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Blind the Eye |
TB | Certainly playable, usually interesting. (12 years ago.) |
| Graveshade |
TB | A guy who can do 17 damage in a turn but who never feels OP or completely useless. A suitable level of variance. I have come to love him having been unimpressed on initial reading. (12 years ago.) |
| Mirror Ghoul |
TB | I really like this guy. Awesome combo with toughness-bumping equipment and +1/+1 counters (both of which we have, but not to excess) and just an interesting effect to think about and play around. Has been interesting/dramatic/not OP in both the games I've seen it in. (12 years ago.) |
| Horrifying Vision |
TB | This card is not super-strong. I figure in a full draft it might often end up in sideboards. But I played it last night from my pool of 36 cards. I actually held on to it against Simon's mono R discard combo but it was otherwise fine. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
TB | In my sideboard last night (not R). Surprised Simon's mono R didn't pick it up. Possibly the worst of the looters? (12 years ago.) |
| Rise Up |
TB | I don't know if this card IS powerful or not but it obviously doesn't LOOK powerful. Last pick in draft. Needs testing but no one wants to test it! (12 years ago.) |
| Soulstair Guide |
TB | Flicker was amazing last night for mono W commons + uncommons. So I guess this guy has more of a chance than I thought for inclusion? (12 years ago.) |
| Mind Broken Mage |
TB | Ended up in my sideboard in the draft last night. Surprised Simon's mono-R combo didn't want it? Probably keep this in and ditch Hissing Conspirator and Wastrel's Wrath? (12 years ago.) |
| Vital Librarian |
TB | Removing lifelink which makes this card "must build around" instead of super-strong + can be broken in the right deck. I think that's right. I've retired Vigorous Study in favor of this as it is more answerable. (12 years ago.) |
| Vital Librarian |
TB | Text changed from Whenever you gain life you may pay 1. If you do, draw a card.
Lifelink. to Whenever you gain life you may pay 1. If you do, draw a card. (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
TB | This played really well last night. Introduced drama around when my board was going to be wiped and how much damage I could do by then and was part of a combo later. And I actually won the game against it quite handily. I like it. (12 years ago.) |
| Raid the Vaults |
TB | I've seen this played three times and two of those times were good stories. Nailed on inclusion for me. (12 years ago.) |
| Vile Mimic |
TB | Kieran noted that he can't ever attack else the copied thing just blocks (even if it is smaller!) which is slightly awkward? So much fairer and more fun than Mind Control or Evil Twin, though. I like this card. (12 years ago.) |
| Dalgath Ghastcaller |
TB | Skinrender variant was not immediately intuitive to me - I thought X was creatures you control or something. But I do like it. (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
TB | This card scares people but hasn't actually done anything broken yet. It's on the watchlist but so far I like it. (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
KS | This is a pretty good Infest variant. Plus as he's a creature you can bring him back for another wrath! (12 years ago.) |
| Vile Mimic |
KS | This is great. Pretty much always kills it and you get to use the abilities in the meantime! (12 years ago.) |

KS | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Spellslinging Augur |

| Deepwater Grasper |
KS | This is still amazing. (12 years ago.) |
| Lostsight Counsel |
KS | This is the sort of skill tester we should have. Bad players always forget to cast it out of the sideboard when doing so might actually win them the game... (12 years ago.) |

| Undervault Horde |
PH | Was fine, mandatory trigger meant I had to mill myself (and hit futurist) when Mills was foresighting a land on top (12 years ago.) |
| Life-Stealer |
PH | Decent guy, the high cost is offset by the 4 point life swing, and he gets better once you get to attack (12 years ago.) |
| Dalgath Prowler |
PH | this guy was good, intimidate is a valid evasion ability, and he combo'd with the sac/scry/grow guy. (12 years ago.) |

| Ransack the Shelves |
SOK | I'm not sure we have a copy of this printed as I didn't see it at all in the playtest! (12 years ago.) |
| Raid the Library |
SOK | Yeah, this was almost the best of the looting cards I had. The combination of the fairly low cost, ability to choose how many to discard, and the extra draw are all great. For an uncommon though it is probably okay, not totally busted. (12 years ago.) |

SOK | This guy was great. Basically a Looting Charm where you also get a 2/2 for 1 ! (12 years ago.) |
| Dueling Mage |
SOK | Back from retirement. This guy was pretty good, can get in some early damage, is a discard outlet, and can then chump mid/late game. (12 years ago.) |
| Banish |
SOK | I found this to be a little clunky. Three mana was a lot to hold up for a bounce effect, also so few wizards in blue at common that I never triggered the conditional draw. I'd be tempted to make it cost 2 and give it portent instead of the draw a card. (12 years ago.) |

| Vituperation of Flesh |
SOK | I kind of like it at uncommon. As it seems unlikely we'll actually play this set with a full 8 people that often, we'll want these kind of cards that draw you into an archetype to appear at uncommon so that you are more likely to see them in a draft, but there will be a max of 2 (12 years ago.) |

| Great Tower Bat |
KS | Since the mana cost is so pitiful and you're unlikely to be casting much if you want to regenerate him anyway it seems a bit pointless. It will look much better without it, and it even lets you build up Mindstorm for free! (12 years ago.) |
| Vituperation of Flesh |
KS | I wanted this to be similar but play differently to Spider Spawning, so instead of getting a bunch of little guys you just get one giant one. Maybe I should just bump it up to rare so that only one will ever appear in a draft and it makes a good reason to play the mill-yourself deck. (12 years ago.) |

| Deepwater Grasper |
PH | Thought it was an homage to Veldaken Dismisser :P (12 years ago.) |
| Portentious Shrike |
KS | The reason this guy rules is because you get such a massive discount. If you do want to make Portent costs the same as mana costs (and remove the cost from the card) you could always give this guy ~ costs 3 less to cast from your library so as not to ruin Portent templating. (12 years ago.) |
| Portentious Shrike |
TB | One of only three cards (one of which probably isn't making the cut) whose Portent cost is not the same as its mana cost. I'm not saying we should make Portent mean "same as mana cost" but it is a distinct possibility at this point. Then we could use some of the Deepwater Grasper-style "if you paid portent" to give extra benefits on some cards. (12 years ago.) |

TB | Let's wait until we have more reason to make more wizards - it may never happen. (12 years ago.) |

| Engorged Murlodont |

| Engorged Murlodont |
KS | I'm not sure why this has the second ability. Doesn't Green normally love lifegain rather than hate on it? Agree a 5/5 or even 5/6 trampler might be pretty decent here. (12 years ago.) |

| Heroic End |
SOK | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Ruminate |
SOK | I think Ruminate (draw 2, put one back on top) needs to stay at U as a cheap portent enabler. Thought Shards and Think Fast are filling similar roles, but I think if we up Think Fast to 3U and lower Thought Shards to U then that will give us 3 draw spells that each help something different. Ruminate = Portent Enabler, Thought Shards = Looting Enabler, Think Fast = Card Advantage. We can mix the names up as need be. (12 years ago.) |

| Ruminate |
TB | Hmm yes we still have to work on the U common draw spells. Perhaps we rename Ruminate to Think Fast then make this a Sorcery draw 3 discard 1 and call it Ruminate? Is old-Ruminate new-Think Fast different enough to Thought Shards? Should we Sorcery-ify Ruminate and give that Portent, keep Thought Shards, cut this and add something else in its place? Perhaps Scrypulse should come back on the basis that it is sufficiently different? (12 years ago.) |
| Mindleech Avian |
TB | Sorry, yes I understood the name. What I mean was, could a Mindleech Avian be a Wizard? Or does it have to be a non-intelligent bird. I like him how he is rather than with shroud or unblockable. (12 years ago.) |
| Soulbrethren |
SOK | Do we want to give this vigilance. Might need to make it a 2/5 if we do. (12 years ago.) |
| Anara Falconer |
SOK | Hah, this is the only Anara card to survive! (12 years ago.) |
| Mindleech Avian |
SOK | Well Avian = bird, ergo flying, and the Mindleech was indicating he was using the library for benefit.

KS | Nothing wrong with this. I kind of like Portent here because sometimes Mind Rot is going to be useless so getting rid of it from the top seems good. Also I hate that uncommon version with cycling & flashback! (12 years ago.) |

TB | I think making it the same throughout might actually be best and then have Uncommons and Rares have "if you cast this for its Portent cost ... " (12 years ago.) |

Unearth B to When ~ enters the battlefield, target player puts the top card of their library into their graveyard. (12 years ago.) |

KS | I was originally doing that, but was worried the card might end up helping your opponent if they need specific cards for Portent! (12 years ago.) |
| Undervault Horde |
KS | A creature with the ability sounds quite good, but probably not for this guy. Some sort of milling ability would be good, though! (12 years ago.) |
| Blind the Eye |
SOK | Maybe change it to Each player rather than target? Disruption and self milling? (12 years ago.) |
| Undervault Horde |
SOK | How about some self milling?
"Whenever ~ deals combat damage, each player puts that many cards from the top of his or her library into his or her graveyard."
I was thinking of making a new card with this, but perhaps it fits here? Maybe wrong on a 5 drop if it is supposed to be an enabling ability? (12 years ago.) |

| Soul Guardian |
TB | I thought it was Tower Warden we were going to make a 3 drop (I already did that) so he couldn't block (much) and tap. (12 years ago.) |
| Think Fast |
SOK | We discussed making this the sorcery "card advantage" spell but that interacts badly with its portent enabling. upping its cost to 3 or 4 and making it draw 3 cards and put one back on top leaves you no mana to cast your Portent card. (12 years ago.) |
| Hot Under the Collar |
SOK | We mentioned shifting this to 4 damage. Will need increase in cost and/or increase in madness cost (12 years ago.) |
| Undervault Horde |
SOK | No ways to abuse this at common so far, how bad is it that I kind of want Mass of Ghouls for this slot instead? (12 years ago.) |

| Fen Bear |
TB | Rarity changed from C to U (12 years ago.) |
| Raid the Vaults |
TB | In playtesting this was found to be lackluster, probably because of the lack of support of Portent creatures. As we up the number of those this will get better. I like that it goes in GB and UB for different reasons. (12 years ago.) |
| Think Fast |
TB | Chose this over Consider (draw 2, put 2) as that is actual card disadvantage and this is going in the U common card drawing slot. (12 years ago.) |

| Ghastlord of the Black Tower |
TB | Could we always give him Vampiric Tutor? Cards are in your opening hand as often as they are on top of your library and he's not much of a Lord if he is a 5/5 for 6 with no ability. Don't want to break anything, though! Rune-Scarred Demon is a 6/6 flier for 7 with Demonic Tutor. Not the kind of card I want in our set at all, though, so conflicted! (12 years ago.) |
| Mindcoil Serpent |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Unravelling Thoughts |
SOK | Yeah, I agree. I'm just wary that we have taken out or disliked almost every answer/hoser to the lifegain deck. Will need to see how it plays out. (12 years ago.) |
| Ruminate |
SOK | I think we have a glut of card maipulation cards in blue at common. Maybe lose either this or Ruminate?
We could give Ruminate a Portent cost that might work out okay. Or move Scrypulse to Uncommon. (12 years ago.) |
| Ruminate |
TB | Could simplify this by making it do the same thing and have the same cost for Portent. Still not sure if we can make Portent the same as the normal cost by default and have the exceptions call it out on the card? (12 years ago.) |

TB | Don't think we want super milling at common unless milling is a theme of the set. Prefer it to be occasionally viable rather than one of the main plans? (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Text changed from Equip 2

Equipped creature has "T: Scry 2" (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Well the idea was that the creature is using the wand to glimpse the future, I see your point about it triggering on equip, should probably be a tap ability. (12 years ago.) |
| Ancestral Odyssey |
SOK | Good to see, I was kind of worried that it would always be the right choice to give theme the turn rather than the cards. Maybe there is little difference in this set... (12 years ago.) |
| Grave Geist |
SOK | Only issue with the making it a when it dies trigger is that we only have Flayed Sentry as a sac outlet at common currently. Would need more enablers. Maybe 6 mana unearth cost? (12 years ago.) |
| Rise Up |
TB | Trying it at a lower cost to see if we can get it to "looks playable" to find out if it is secretly busted! (12 years ago.) |

| Ransack the Shelves |
TB | Haven't seen it played yet I'm afraid. (12 years ago.) |

KS | Perhaps this is one of those effects that's impossible to cost correctly! At four it's turning out to be terrible, but at some cost it's definitely busted! (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Sentinels |
TB | Yeah, it works great how it is. (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Sentinels |
KS | Blue always needs a 1/4 and it seems like the best fit for the ability because it won't die often. (12 years ago.) |
| Grave Geist |
KS | Maybe replace sacrificing it for the ability with a 'when it dies' ability? Then you'd have to work for it. Would help bring sacrifice back into black as well! (12 years ago.) |
| Grave Geist |
TB | Options for nerfing slightly: up the original cost, up the Unearth cost. Which do we like? I think upping the Unearth cost to something high like a Forbidden Alchemy or Moan of the Unhallowed flashback cost is best? It no longer mimics Geistflame at that point but it can block & sac so it is better than Geistflame? Although it is on-board rather than an instant. (12 years ago.) |

| Flayed Sentry |
KS | The Portent cost is awesome if black retains its minor sacrifice theme. Dalgath Apprentice, Dalgath Prowler, Undervault Horde and Coffin Breaker are all fine to sacrifice for a free creature but in the last common cull zero of them made it in. Undervault Horde should probably end up replacing Bone Beast at least - even though that guy is the best! (12 years ago.) |
| Flayed Sentry |
KS | Dropped down to 1B since his Portent is mostly unplayable. (12 years ago.) |
| Flayed Sentry |
KS | Cost changed from 2B to 1B (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Sentinels |
TB | This guy is good in any U deck with portent and library manipulation. Could easily be a 1/3, or anything really, but having this effect at common is key. (12 years ago.) |
| Invalidate |
TB | No one seems very impressed with this. It does combo with Foreshadow and I think it may be a card that might be better than it looks for that reason. Although knowing it will be Mana Leak is not much of a reward for setting up Foreshadow and running this card. It's a shame that one of our few cards with a shuffle effect doesn't let you shuffle at a time of your choosing. If we generally depower the cards this one won't need altering! :) (12 years ago.) |

| Call the Titans |
TB | Signature rare for R in the set. 100% sold on this one. The mana is steep and it doesn't win you the game even if you combo off but worth going for it. (12 years ago.) |

TB | Positive response in all-Commons. (12 years ago.) |

TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |

| Soulstoke Engine |
TB | Provoked the question "why do you have the exact same card twice at different costs?" in draft. I guess we already know we have to pick this or Searing Meditation. Does it have to RR? I can see a WBr deck that splashes Searing/this and Chaplain-General being very good. (12 years ago.) |
| Graven Servitor |
TB | I think this guy is a super cool common in a lower-powered set. When playing with proportionally more commons he may have more chance. (12 years ago.) |
| Pageflame |
TB | This seemed to be "too much work/mana for the big reward". Can we push it anyhow? (12 years ago.) |
| Raid the Library |
TB | Some possibility this is too good? (12 years ago.) |
| Graveshade |
TB | This was windmill-slammed by the RB dredge/loot player in our draft. No idea how it played out but he seemed pleased about it. (12 years ago.) |
| Mindleech Avian |
TB | Cool card. Plays well. Combo in Common with Tower Sentinels. (12 years ago.) |
| Mindleech Avian |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Ruminate |
TB | Good in UR. (12 years ago.) |
| Soul Guardian |
TB | If you aren't combo-ing with your lifegain no amount of incidental lifegain seems to change the fundamental winner once a player has a strong board advantage. When you put the pieces together it creates board (or card) advantage so that's different. So I don't think the format actually does end up being that slow. It's hard to get big chunks of life, only small amounts, anyway.
This guys is pretty awesome. Plays well. Combo with Shimmersprite is fun but not broken. (12 years ago.) |
| Life-Stealer |
TB | This guy is still surprisingly good at 4B. Evasion is really good in this format currently. (12 years ago.) |
| Impatient Mage |
TB | Used to good effect in the looting deck. (12 years ago.) |
| Lostsight Counsel |
TB | This is so fun. Louis used it to pull himself out of a hole in one of our games but could not be called broken. Cool stuff. (12 years ago.) |
| Overpowering Light |
TB | It is quite easy to trigger this in W decks at which point it is awesome. Not broken, though. Good. (12 years ago.) |
| Looting Charm |
TB | Louis found this very strong but I don't think it is broken. I like it. (12 years ago.) |
| Prescience Wand |
TB | Used to great effect by Louis in all-commons. I don't like it on aesthetic grounds. It's actually very good, probably too good, as you can use it multiple times per turn as long as you have two creatures. (12 years ago.) |
| Goblin Archer |
TB | Was called out by a drafter as a cool card. (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
TB | This guy is fairly broken in conjunction with Vital Librarian or Vigorous Study. There are infinite combos with this guy which we should remove or not down with an activation cost, possibly T. Can also jump start some of the other infinite combos by gaining the first life. (12 years ago.) |
| Horrifying Vision |
SOK | Filling a hole. All our common black spells are removal. We can either use this or maybe turn Tom's 5B discard uncommon into a common? (12 years ago.) |

SOK | New card: 3B Sorcery C Target player discards two cards.

| Freya's Blessing |
TB | Does good work. Definitely not OP. Bit of a skilltester/thinker to know whether to pull the trigger when land-light, etc. or hold on to it and get more value. (12 years ago.) |
| Banish |
TB | I had an Enchantment Banish'ed earlier today. That was quite cool. (12 years ago.) |
| Call the Titans |
TB | Build-around-me rare. Louis made 4 giants against me, but lost :) (12 years ago.) |
| Diviner's Familiar |
TB | Would probably still be good at 3U, though. (12 years ago.) |
| Diviner's Familiar |
TB | Really good. Pays you off for playing with themes of the set but not OP. (12 years ago.) |
| Simple Offering |
TB | The R and the W combo decks have very important enchantments. It might make sense to make this an instant. (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Warden |
TB | This guy is very strong because he can block as well as "tap". Probably needs to be a 1/1 or something. We errattaed him to untap the creature as well as remove it but he was still awesome. Good card and interesting twist on tapping but will have to think about if he is too good. (12 years ago.) |
| Battlefield Oracle |
TB | This guy is definitely a bit broken. Or at least is very good. Probably a bit complex/good for a common. (12 years ago.) |
| Exaltation of Larks |
TB | Fine guy. (12 years ago.) |
| Prudent Adaptation |
TB | Seemed pretty good without being busted. (12 years ago.) |
| Deepwater Grasper |
TB | Seemed pretty good without being busted. (12 years ago.) |
| Shimmersprite |
TB | Seemed pretty good in UW commons - gaining life like crazy off Soul Guardian in the late game and blocking but not dying, etc. Can also prevent you from decking if you are in a deck that wants that (the U decks and UR decks that draw a lot of cards probably do - it came up once). However went last pick in 5-man draft. UR, WB, mono G, RB, WR were the colors so I guess the UR player didn't want it and that was that so not necessarily a criticism. He may not actually need Flash. (12 years ago.) |
| Rise Up |
TB | Pretty sure this is not broken as Kieran feared. Played it in WB today and it was not even good really. (12 years ago.) |
| Angry Giant |
TB | Described as a key card in the R looting deck. (12 years ago.) |
| Flayed Sentry |
TB | I still hate that we are wasting this amazing portent cost on this terrible card. What would sac to get this???! (12 years ago.) |
| Flayed Sentry |
SOK | I think this guy can be 1B. Manor Skeleton is the same but has haste, this has a tough portent cost, especially as Portent is sorcery speed only. (12 years ago.) |

| Fanatical Devotee |

| Angry Giant |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Angry Giant |
TB | Three times Louis did fun things with this with the looters in R. Not madly over powered but a surprise 3/3 is no joke. (12 years ago.) |

TB | Louis deemed this unplayable in all-Commons limited and cut it from his W deck. Hmm. (12 years ago.) |

| Shimmersprite |
KS | This guy might need to be uncommon if he gets flash as well. That would leave another opening for a common Portent guy, though! (12 years ago.) |

| Graven Servitor |
KS | Moved to Common at Tom's suggestion (12 years ago.) |
| Graven Servitor |
KS | Rarity changed from U to C (12 years ago.) |
| Pageflame |
TB | Should it cost more and do 2, or cost R and do 1? 3 damage is about the top end if it does 1 so I'd say we can safely cost that at R. (12 years ago.) |

| Battlefield Oracle |
KS | Agree this should be a centaur - though still a Druid or possibly Shaman (12 years ago.) |
| Pageflame |
KS | This might make it totally busted since you can spread it around multiple creatures and Mindstorming at least once should be pretty easy in a red deck. (12 years ago.) |
| Zealous Protector |
KS | I still think this should be an uncommon. I love Determined Pilgrim because there's a choice on whether or not to kill him and thus enable soulsong and I think that's what the white commons should be like. (12 years ago.) |
| Pageflame |
TB | Is this completely broken at 2 damage? It's hard to Mindstorm for more than a single additional copy so that would put it at 4 for 2, better than Incinerate but you had to work for it. It would combo with looting charm (also a common) for 6 damage for 3 mana. But given that that is the combo rather than the normal outcome it seems better than 3 damage for 3 mana (i.e. worse than Incinerate) being the unusual but doable outcome. Could up the cost to 2R? But I like it low. (12 years ago.) |

PH | do we keyword the centaur ability? Call it Charger or something? (12 years ago.) |

| Tower Relic |
KS | If we're continuing with retrace and landfall as themes a version of Khalni Gem would actually be pretty awesome in this format! (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Relic |
TB | This is definitely above the curve for mana rocks. Not sure if that's a problem or not. Compare Altar of the Lost or Khalni Gem! (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Relic |
TB | Yes I meant because of the name. Let's cut Signet from the name rather than making it more fiddly! "Lotus Cauldron"? :) (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Relic |
SOK | Whats the reasoning behind forcing two different colours? Just to tie into the name?
I think it is a little more awkward and we can just change the name!
If we really wanted we could make it cost 2, and just be an uber signet which would be broken in real magic, but maybe okay in our set? (12 years ago.) |
| Great Tower Bat |
SOK | Yes that was pretty cool! Some nice tension on whether to be aggressive, defend, discard or not. All moot if I had just remembered to unearth my Geistflame zombie! (12 years ago.) |
| Great Tower Bat |
SOK | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Vile Mimic |
TB | This guy is pretty awesome. Not as first-pick-bomb as Evil Twin because of the leaves play clause and I like that a lot. Created an interesting game state with Spined Leaper where I got to sac my mimicked creature to make him fly because he was going to die anyway. (12 years ago.) |
| Vile Mimic |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Corrupt Seer |
TB | I think we might have made this a real winner with pay 2 life. Used him to shift a land for Throw from the Tower to great effect but you can't just rifle through lands looking for action - you'll die! (12 years ago.) |
| Grave Geist |
TB | This guy might actually be too good. Fun card for sure but pretty gamewinning for a 1-drop if he does something like take out two Great Tower Bats. (12 years ago.) |
| Grave Geist |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Relic |
TB | Should it be two different colors or is that just making it more awkward? (12 years ago.) |
| Tower Relic |
TB | I find the Signet behavior a little fiddly compared to your average mana rock. (12 years ago.) |
| Hot Under the Collar |
TB | It's still just Fiery Temper for R more, though, which is annoying. (12 years ago.) |
| Hot Under the Collar |
TB | Twice in two games all I wanted to do was draw this card. Removal that kills things with more than 2 toughness! (12 years ago.) |

TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Inspirationist |
TB | Never sad to see this little fella. What a boss. (12 years ago.) |
| Throw from the Tower |
TB | Never sad to see this. Seems fair and good. Contributes to fliers being amazing in this set, though. We probably need to up the proportion of fliers. (12 years ago.) |
| Great Tower Bat |
TB | Just had an epic Great Tower Bat fight with Simon with Great Tower Bats on both sides. I don't care what I'm drawing, I'm going to discard it in a bat-fight! (12 years ago.) |
| Mirror Ghoul |
TB | This is actually quite a lot worse than deathtouch because it means that a 1/1 man can take him down. It also means getting a +1/+1 counter on him makes him unkillable by a single foe! Very fun card. (12 years ago.) |
| Mirror Ghoul |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Call the Titans |
TB | I think Mindstorm in general as a few build-around-me cards for the looting deck is awesome despite having been skeptical when I first saw it. (12 years ago.) |
| Call the Titans |
TB | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Call the Titans |
TB | I really like this card but by the time you get to six mana you don't have many cards in had to do some crazy looting. I haven't cast it for more than 1 yet despite crafting a deck whose entire plan was to do just that. The deck couldn't deal with creatures with 3 or more toughness, though, else it might have had time to do more. (12 years ago.) |

Academy Rector, Archon of Justice, Doomed Traveler, Mausoleum Guard are all notable examples and all really cool! :) I think we're good there.

| Determined Pilgrim |
KS | I like this far more than the lifelink creatures because it creates combat-phase tension. Do you block it and enable Soulsong for your opponent or do you keep taking two damage? With (for example) the 2/1 lifelinker there is none of that tension. (12 years ago.) |
| Determined Pilgrim |
KS | Liked this. (12 years ago.) |
| Deepwater Grasper |
KS | Why not change the ability based on unite? Make him a 2/2 for 4, make the normal ability Aether Adept, then get the Dismisser ability for Unite 2? Then he's never useless and the unite ability is an awesome bonus. (12 years ago.) |

I guess in traditional cube there would be only 1 copy so the danger is lessened,but if it is playing about as good as Increasing Confusion, then it probably needs to increase in cost and rarity. Feel free to keep changing it. (12 years ago.) |

| Prudent Adaptation |
SOK | Yes I think it has to be like Miracle, otherwise you can't cast anything off temporary reveal cards.
If you have a permanent reveal card like Seerlord then I guess the Portent triggers in your draw step once you draw your card for the turn and flip over the new top card of your library. Potentially we could word Portent so it works in both ways? Triggered and Aperture style. (12 years ago.) |
| Prudent Adaptation |
TB | Portent timing works like Miracle and not like Temporal Aperture, then? What if I have a Seerlord of the Blue Tower in play? The top card of my library has Flash? It probably is better that way if we are going to have these Bear/Centaur reveal-on-attack cards unless all the G ones are going to be Instants. (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Not as good as Magus of the Future, as almost the best bit is the free land, which you cant get with this. I'd warrant that Oracle of Mul Daya is stronger than Magus of the Future (ignoring ease of casting) due to allowing you to make an extra land drop. (12 years ago.) |

TB | This is a nombo with a lot of what B is trying to do an doesn't have power to make up for that. Could we make it so that your opponents draw from the bottom of their library or beef it up?

CG | Ambigouos wording - is this meant to be Master Warcraft or only work on deciding their attacks? (12 years ago.) |
| Soul Guardian |
PH | also - if we're pushing lifegain really *really* hard (as seems to be happening) it will make for a slow format. We'll need finishers in all colours and possibly some viable alt win condition. If we don't have an infect/mill equivalent then limited games will be unfun. (12 years ago.) |
| Soul Guardian |
PH | made him 2/4 in order to justify the increased cost, and allow you to get blown out by combat tricks as you'll probably attack and block with him. the 1/1 guys generally have a non-relevant body. 2/2 probably fine, but would shave a mana off I think. (12 years ago.) |
| Soul Guardian |
PH | do we want to make it too easy to trigger soulsong though? keeping it as an etb effect makes people work a little bit harder (12 years ago.) |
| Soul Guardian |
SOK | Further thoughts - Soul Warden style creatures are pretty unfun to play against, that is why they are all 1 toughness, this guy being an amazing Soulsong enabler and 4 toughness at common would be way too good. If we do make him trigger off casts I'd move him to rare, else make him a 2/2? (12 years ago.) |

PH | need to have this effect at common, just not sure I like the cost. Unless the set has a lot of big flyers (like AVR) then it's just too expensive.
Most non-rare flyers are small, and cost 3-5, so in general you're losing mana to play this, and you don't get much upside as they're going to have 3 toughness or so.
tl/dr - this will never get played as it's too expensive

SOK | I'm kind of comparing it to Stitched Drake, a 3/4 flyer for 1UU with on on theme drawback. I think putting a card in you hand on your library is worse than exiling from your graveyard. I guess this is way more consistent as a turn 2 drop though. (12 years ago.) |

PH | Typically you're not going to wrath a board where you have more creatures than an opponent, so not sure the conditional clause is worth the extra complexity.
For the WWW cost I'd probably have the caster gain all the life as well, although that may actually be more a B effect than W (12 years ago.) |

I imagine Ross just made them all bears to tie them together rather than as a creative decision. (12 years ago.) |

| Ransack the Shelves |

SOK | Done (12 years ago.) |

| Embryo Thief |
KS | A card designed by the man who finds Triumph of Ferocity too offensive! (12 years ago.) |
| Embryo Thief |
TB | Flavor of the name is great but it's probably too icky. (12 years ago.) |
| Deferred Pleasure |
KS | This is amazing. By itself it shuts down your draw step but with Portent and revealing your top card it suddenly becomes a free tutor every turn for only 2 mana. This may well be my favourite card so far. (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
SOK | also 2B seems pretty cheap for a Mutilate effect, maybe 2BB? (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
SOK | Additionally could change it to be a enters the battlefield trigger? (12 years ago.) |
| Prophet of Doom |
SOK | You'll need to tidy up the wording a little to get it to work. I'm assuming the intent is a ongoing effect? If so (12 years ago.) |

KS | Best River Kaijin Ever! (12 years ago.) |

SOK | Interesting, I guess Green makes more sense than Red (12 years ago.) |
| Natural Instinct |
KS | I think this should be colour-shifted to Red or Green as a hate card against the blue abilities (12 years ago.) |
| Portentious Shrike |
RM | imagine revealing this with a green bear in play - 4/4 flyer and power boost my team - i like it (12 years ago.) |
| Ancestral Odyssey |
KS | I love punisher cards since you always get the worst option even though they always look totally busted. (12 years ago.) |
| Scrypulse |
RM | all these go really well with the green cards that care about what is on your library (12 years ago.) |
| Dissonance |
KS | This seems perfectly balanced (12 years ago.) |
| Protective Elder |
RM | we need to have some agro stuff in other colours that can sometimes win before these come out otherwise its board stall city - which is ok sometimes but agro needs to be viable (12 years ago.) |
