That 3/2 boros human that pumps on attack?
Incentive to run Sorcery speed removal in other decks?

A couple of interesting 3 power creatures and not much else...
I guess they could try insult to injury for Alpha strike, but that's borderline useful...


The 3/2 would be good for a straight Boros deck, and I agree that the inclusion of some great Sorcery removal pieces like Never and Cut will weigh in its favor. What about Mardu though?


You get to fling skyships, caravans and cruisers which is pretty dirty, especially after you've swung! :D

Sounds like a great list. Pity maybe about the cycling lands but they would not be worth sacrificing for other slots. At 169 cards we got a lot of good cards. Was pleased to see we got all the multi colour cards as it at least makes exploring a bit more fun. After KLD/AER although we get a smaller number of artifacts there are all the monuments and some of the others too.

All in all it should do a job in shaking things up. We now have a total of 1,350 unique cards in Magic Duels. Amazing!

Elves seem pretty deece right now, not top tier but they can give it a good go. On that regard if zombies can be on the same level as elves then I'll be pretty happy.

I can't wait for the salt when you have to trade your glyph keeper for your opponent's 2 drop to live :p

I wrote an overly wordy post about how all my hopes and dreams get shafted every season and this is exactly the case this season. Unfortunately my post timed out and it was lost to the interwebs and I don't feel like doing it all again.

FYI if you time out hit the back button on your browser. Usually a fairly recent version if not the most up to date one of your text is still there.
Also, good policy when writing a long post is to Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C your post text before each time you hit preview or submit.

I just realized that Stainless dodged a bullet here: Vessel of Volatility is an enchantment so it doesn't count for Harsh Mentor... otherwise they would have needed to properly code the Vessel's ability as a mana ability. Oh wait... if that were the case, they would have probably substituted the Vessel with another card. :evil:

I wouldn't put it past Stainless to somehow get an even worse repeat of that very same bug with Gift of Paradise.

Thanks for the tip, I was doing the facepalm when I forgot to do that. It's something I try to remember to do.

I haven't noticed any card in the set that could "tread into bugged territory". To be fair, there's a problem with cycling on the current engine: I tried to code Valley Rannet some time ago and it just zoomed the card in when I tried to cast it for its mana cost, so I had to use a little hack (I added a "(Cast this card.)" ability)... but I think it's blatant enough even for Stainless to realize. :sweat:

EDIT: Actually, I haven't paid enough attention to Gideon's ultimate... that's basically Platinum Angel so I think it's safe to assume that at least 1 bug will come out of that. :D
