The "Crazy One", playing casual magic and occasionally dipping his toes into regular play since 1994.
Currently focusing on Pre-Modern (Mono-Black Discard Control) and Modern (Azorious Control, Temur Rhinos).
Find me at the Wizard's Tower in Ottawa every second Saturday afternoons.
So, is it safe to say that after the Yamato torches the eternal vanguard Bolas is forced to activate his Eternal Zombo Gods trap card? Then, when Ugin arrives to fend off the new challengers, Nasty B takes the field himself?
As for the card...8 mana? Maybe some combination of Song of Freyalise and...I dunno. 8 mana is alot. Feels like I should just be casting Nexus, at that point.

I guess you don’t realize how insane this card would be if it were easy it get out?
This card could have flash and be a creature for free on your turns and it would still be bad. It's flashy, sure, but it's definitely the kind of card that would happily go into my "Bad Cards Cube"
Also its an artifact, a lot of way to cheat those out.

"You can tell how dumb someone is by how they use Mary Sue"
8 mana for THIRTEEN POWER on the board off the first swing?
This is the kind of finisher Depala EDH decks have been waiting for.
More like 9 power. This card costs 4 power for you to use
It is 13. 5 Parhelion, 4 Angel, 4 Angel all flying, vigilance and attacking.
And the next turn it's 21 damage coming at you plus board presence.
That is the reason it must cost so much....which it does.
But it is still a marvel to behold

Been a member here for over a dozen years. Playing since '95 just got lost in the twitch shuffle.
Looks like a cycle of 10 (rare?) colored vehicles is possibly shaping up along with Mizzium Tank. Or just vehicles in red and white because those colors care about vehicles most? However, Boros and Izzet have vehicles now. So you'd think they'd want the complete cycle - a vehicle for each of the guilds - while we're wrapping up the Ravnican uber-block?
Well if this spoilers wanted to tell us a part of the story than it would be "the Boros angels arrived", "the legion strike back" or something like that.
I can understand that this is expensive. Not sure I want to play this in commander. 8 mana is a lot for white/ white-red.
Maybe red will get another? It's the only non-legendary of the bunch.
If I had to guess, if we are getting another rare colored artifact, it'll probably be a blue creature made by Tezzeret or Saheeli. It would be pretty weird for none of the set's high profile artifacts to belong to the two artificer planeswalkers in the set.

Well Tezzeret isn't in the set. He is the buy a box card. Saheeli will most likely get something (Saheeli's ...). Nahiri cares for equipment and at the moment there are zero.
He’s subtracting the 4 you have to tap to crew it. Which isn’t a good way to look at it because it’s still 13 hitting the opponent.
I'm thinking the same way skilled players think about card advantage and using planeswalkers to "gain life". The resources you spend are just as significant as the reward you get. Divination draws you two cards at the cost of one, so you net 1. A 5 loyalty planeswalker requires at least 5 damage to kill, meaning it will usually prevent you from losing 5 or more life, which is equal to losing that much life and gaining it back. This card gets you 13 power at the cost of 4. You're netting 9.

It can also give pseudo-haste to the 4 power creature that crews it. You potentially would not have been able to attack with that 4 power otherwise.

Except that your opponent is still losing 13. I don’t think looking at it in the card advantage sense is reasonable when looking at this. At least without modifying the paradigm.

The fact is that after attacking with this card you would have 17 power worth of creatures on the board, however four of that power would not be dealt to your opponent.
This card could be a 1/1 creature that doesn't require a crew cost and it would have the same result, contributing 9 power to each attack.
I don't get how things such as this or Bolas' Citadel are not mythic. What does it take?
Mythic isn’t purely the coolest stuff. I’m looking forward to seeing what else there is personally though, I don’t think we know too much Mythic wise beyond the Walkers and the new Niv. They may have saved Mythic for special story stuff too.
