Damn, that Kaya promo art was so badass, but I'm not a fan of either versions on her actual card (normal and borderless). What happened to the bearded axes? Anyway, this card is neat. I like that it plays into Kaya's identify of being hard to kill, especially since her ult can bring herself back indefinitely. |

This is my strongest feeling as well. And honestly I have to admit I'm feeling pretty done with her as a character since in the entire time we've had her, she's demonstrated no genuine motivation of her own. I honestly can't really see that changing with kaldheim either. |

Oh yeah as a character she's added nothing good. I also don't see her flavor, if anything allowing something to recur while leaving a Spirit is the opposite of what a supposed assassin of ghosts should do. I have yet to like anything about Kaya on a flavor level. But the card is neat. |

She says nothing interesting, does nothing interesting, this particular art is a bloody joke, and her gimmick as ghostbuster-in-chief did not have a long running time before "Writing for the overspecialized character" was sure to kick in. Card's pretty good but I don't like how it escalates the removal/recursion arms race. Exile removal was safe barring a couple innate weirdos, dangit. |

I dislike how they are slowly but surely increasing the amount of exile interaction. |

We pretty much jumped from "Nothing normal" to "Repeated perfect recursion and removal avoidance". I feel like there were some steps missed in there, something between Pull from Eternity/Runic Repetition/Eternal Scourge and "lolnope, let's have a card that broadly makes premier exile removal kinda useless" |

As much as I can enjoy the ult from a gameplay perspective, I agree that it seems like a bad direction regarding exile. As MaRo's stated, cards like Misthollow Griffin, Eternal Scourge, and God-Eternal Rhonas are okay, because they just protect themselves from exile. Processors weren't a huge deal to me because they only brought back your opponents' stuff. Bringing arbitrary cards back from exile, though, does do a lot to make that form of removal feel less permanent, even if this only brings back a subset of cards. |

I think planeswalker ultimates are allowed to break most rules. Karn Liberated for e.g. |

Oh, I see. That one is preemptive though. Like if you counter Iona's Judgment that doesn't count as interacting with exile |

Yeah i'm not convinced boomeranging your dude when its hit with an exile/kill spell counts as interacting with exile. It does hose exile cards but not more than many forms of evasion already do. |
