... why wouldn't 'battlefield' be on cards? It's standard nomenclature since Magic 2010. And stopped the six different definitions of the word 'play' too.

I will not support gatecrash if "the battlefield: is written on the cards
A few things: 1.) "The battlefield" isn't written anywhere on this card. 2.) Gatecrash released several sets ago. This is called Oath of the Gatewatch 3.) Pretty sure the term "the battlefield" has been used since a long time ago. 4.) Really? Just because one word is written on a card you won't support the entire set?
In summary, this kind of post is everything wrong with the MTGS community.
not happy with the next release gate crash with "the battlefield "
I think you're a little confused. The next release is Oath of the Gatewatch. Gatecrash came out almost 3 years ago, and "the battlefield" has been standard templating on Magic cards for over 5 years.

perceptive would still be fundamentally
unprepared for the truth of House Dimir."

Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
hard to ignore "the battlefield": written on so many cards
but must players manage to read past it without reading it through every time
and many actually explain a card without using it
When either idiots or complete trolls like this say "No war," it makes me think that war must be a good thing.
I'm really not even sure what point he's trying to make. This card has nothing to do with etb.
On topic, it might be serviceable depending on the format. It might be too late for that effect to be worth it though.
I swear I first read it as Wingbonger...something tells me that "As Long as Wingbonger is paired with another creature, both creatures have weed." wouldn't be as good. Seems solid for limited.
with line separation cleanly between abilities and flavored text
line structure writing becomes vert difficult when one has to include 15 characters to needlessly say "the battlefield"
The word battlefield isn't even on this card, dude.

the battlefield would not have permitted such even alignment
To quote The Big Lebowski: What in God's holy name are you blathering about?
As for the (sadly leaked) card itself: it's definitely powerful, but I'm not sure which if any of my decks with blue would be able to use over the cards already there. The 6+ CMC slots have a lot of good stuff vying for space, y'know.
That's a spambot, although the term is technically incorrect because the account seems to be operated by a human instead of being automated. Hit the report button and let the mods do their work.
That guy endlessly spammed WOTC forums with his ridiculous opinions and pseudo-helpful neverending criticisms of how cars are templated. He's the only person on ANY forum that I have ever put on Ignore.
This is one of the funniest threads I've read in a long time. 10/10.
On topic: Good card is good. It's probably not efficient or powerful enough to be played in anything besides limited and a few niche commander decks that have nothing else to play, but it's still cool.

that's only 7 characters different, not 15.
This card does not have an ETB effect, so the point is not on topic in this thread.

He's been spamming tons of other threads. Mods, please take care of it.
As for the previously spoiled card it's not too shabby siding in for control, but it's not exactly great either.
