    Printable?

    It is now. I think it's deceptively powerful, allowing you to bank two mana every time you'd like to kill a creature is pretty good. I think even Phyrexian Alter would be too good if it gave treasure instead of mana, because one turns attackers who have already dealt damage into main phase mana, and the other lets you cast colorless instants.

    -10, you win the next game.
    Better hope you don't lose game two!

    On modo a few days ago my 4 month old pupper hopped up onto the keyboard, and turned on auto-yield, windows 10's built in narrator, and thus prevented me from playing both the creature and the spell in my hand. Bad Dog!
    (Nah, he's actually a good boy and I have tons of pics to prove it)

    I would love a limited set of Cube cards that interact like those "next game" and "game you can see from your seat" cards from Unhinged.

    I think people are making this more complicated than it has to be. The compass is a piece of magic in a story with very limited space. It's not going to have any super-convoluted means to operate. It'll either be a compass that points to "what vraska needs" (to fulfill her quest) or "what she wants" (the compass knowing what she desires).


    The Pirates of the Caribbean forum is athataway ->

    Also Jace literally can't be the associate Bolas talked about, because he went to Ixalan after Vraska and Bolas seemingly wasn't aware of the Gatewatch being on Amonkhet. Plus, it's kind of silly on a meta-level anyway.

    Did he? I agree that Jace isn't the associate, but why isn't it possible that this story starts before Hour of Devestation and concludes after it? We're making an assumption that the stories are happening chronologically.

    I want to brew something with a lot of synergy, and is very resilient to disruption. What are my choices? Most tribal decks that have the brewing and synergy I like die to wrath effects.

    While not 'OUR' Mirari, as in the one that was at the core of Memnarch, it could be A mirari, since they were probes Karn sent out.

    ...Actually, that could really flow well into Dominaria once we leave Ixalan, since I have a hunch that Karn will be appearing in the Dominaria set.
    Nah. I doubt Bolas is going through the trouble of hiring Vraska to go to a dangerous Planeswalker trap and seek out a secret city horrendously difficult to discover in order to recover just any old Mirari that might have replicas elsewhere. It's either THE Mirari, or not it at all.

    Mirari is no long apart of the current story.

    That's a stretch of a conclusion from a three year old blog post that says "We didn't say where it was."


    Your right I bet it will show up with Solbad, Agrus Kos and the other stuff creative put on a bus and we haven't heard of in years.

    No need to get snippy.

    The way Doug wrote this off very much hint to me they done with the Mirari for storyline reasons and if it is a factor it would be in a return to New Phyrexia. But with the mess of a canon we have between the creative team, the mirrodin block books and the quest for karn, I'd think it would just be safe to write off the Mirari since it mostly only known by older players.

    That's one way to look at it, the other is that they've mentioned it as a corrupting force on Mirrodin, and they keep reprinting the legendary artifact. Commander 2013 wasn't that long ago.

    Hmm... it could be the Mirari. Isn't it described as a pulsing sun?

    I wonder what the Immortal Sun Legendary Artifact will look like and what effect its card will have. Seeing how deeply intrinsic it is for the plane in this story, it reminds me why I'm so hostile toward Planeswalkers. This object is clearly crucial to the functions of an entire world,


    I think that is something of a leap, It seems the Guardian hid it away on purpose, and that the Merfolk think anyone who gets it will use it for bad voodoo. For all we know it is something legitimately dangerous.

    Mirari?

    Nicol Bolas would be good at CinemaSins.

    I am still confused as to how the Sun Empire will fins Orazca. Apparebtly Huatli came up with a spell but are you telling me that nobody else came up with that during all these years?

    Sort of! When Hualti ignited their planeswalker spark they attempted to walk to Kaladesh, except only the reader knew it was Kaladesh because of the accompanying picture. Hualti told everyone it was a vision of Orazca.

    I would rather believe that all walkers have ults, and some just have really cheap (free) ones.

    Then what do you consider ults? Saying that the last loyalty ability on any planeswalker is an ultimate one is clean and fitting for the actual definition of "ultimate," but anything else would just be confusing.

    Makes sense to me, as long as "last" also means "bottom on the back" for flippy walkers like that one Garruk.

    Are you sure you want a card with this many memory issues in your cube? Also, this goes infinite by its lonesome, fyi. Equip as a sorcery doesn't do or mean anything because that's already part of the equip keyword.

    It goes infinite but I'm not sure it does anything since the equipment has no effect unless equipped and once unequipped the effect the was granted to the first equipped creature no longer applies.
