Yeah, this is fantastic stuff for 2HG and fine in multi games. Starting to think with this new cool stuff and the reprints, they should just forget Masters sets and stuff reprints into the June supplementary.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
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.
Remember when we saw how a philosopher can take down a goddamn bear in single combat?
Well, in this world, vendors can take down giants.
It's Vendors, plural. Probably like three 1/1 gobbos, all strung out on whatever potions they're selling. The power comes from their reckless abandon, not necessarily their strength.

Really feels like it needs flash, though.

Not unprecedented
On phasing:
Potions do wonders.

If their potions are anything like the bacon wrapped hot dogs vendors sell in downtown Los Angeles, you can bet a P9 they can take down a giant.

Also, Mana and Health potions? Is this Diablo??
