Pia's Revolution with artifacts like Terrarion and Black Lotus. What's that you dont want to pay 3 life to stop me getting infinite mana with lotus? I mean even lotus petal will be a threat. Mishra's bauble means draw a lot of cards. I think that card could see alot of play if built around.
Even Chromatic Star becomes X: Draw X cards until a player pays 3 life..well that and draw X cards this turn over the bauble.
Chromatic star becomes a conditional lava spike, that's all. No-one is going to let you do any of these things more than once. It's cute, it has some interesting applications in casual formats, but you can't just throw around the idea of using this in vintage "for fun". Vintage isn't a format for cute interactions.

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.
So, Bolas in this set? Otherwise I don't see the point of having a card like Dark Intimations printed here and not in Amonkhet. The effect is at the same time generic enough to go in any set and narrow to specific cards in that set.
(See Haven of the Spirit Dragon)
I think it is more likely that Tezzeret escapes (again) and team goodieness chases him into the next set, where we will see bolas.
Bolas is an extinction level planeswalker, I doubt they will casually introduce him at the end of kaladesh.

Give credit, where credit is due. Give irony and sarcasm, when ignorance and stupidity is found. The whip is kept for special occasions
The Internet was a revelation to me, I never imagined there are so many idiots on this planet.
I really want to know what's happening in that Dark Intimations card. Did Tezzeret split a construct in half or is he constructing a huge construct? Its the 5/5 storyline card and is way more confusing. The last five from Kaladesh were easy to put together without the story.

"The essence of every world, every spell and every thought is power. Nothing else matters, because nothing else exists."
Disallow is an awesome design, it is powerful and it will lead to interesting gameplay decisions like when you should use it to counter something like a planeswalker ability and be down a card. It will almost certainly see a lot of play just like voidslime did.
I wonder if I can build an EDH deck with just counterspells yet.
Disallow is cool. It's better than Cancel because it is rare. duh? You have to look at it from a limited event lens and a "sell all the sealed product" lens.
Dark Imitations looks to be more casual friendly than playable. Considering we won't get a Bolas PW card until HoD most likely. And the Bolas Archenemy kit will probably have a new one in it.
Pia's Revolution will fall on its face. Harness the Storm should be a tier 1 modern burn deck. What are you people not brewing it for!
Battle at the Bridge, ah yes the old "Black gets an expensive kill spell for Indestructible Creatures at Rare" gag. Oh, it also gains me life? Neat. Wish it would have some flexibility and be able to rip Loyalty counters off of Planeswalkers too. Now tell me why Fumigate isn't a Black card again? The rest of the black rares will go, useless 6mana creature with flying - legendary creature with pt of 2/2 and no relevant abilities for standard - enchantment dealing with artifacts hitting grave but is unplayable in Marionette Master.
Tezzeret at least can be used as a finish in Marionette at least.
That's just my casual standard player's opinion.

Wanted -Zombie Foils and older expensive Zombie stuff. High Priority- Beta Z Master/ Int. Collector's Edition.
Actually it saw a lot of play early on, especially with all the white/black human decks that would produce value over and over (and huge swings with stuff like Nantuko Husk).
However, the card lost favor , like most of the gods, as you really need to somehow get them "active" and if your deck cant do that reliable, the cards lose a lot of what makes them solid.
The effect of losing 3 life or buyback a creature isnt bad, if you pressure them enough, as long as either choice means more damage for them (so it means you must be aggressive, it does nothing if you want to be "control").
The Pia Enchantment is pretty bad, especially in standard.
Theres at least a little bit more hope in older formats, that can use the cantrip cheap artifacts to threaten a lot of damage (or they get more cards), something like Greater Gargadon with a lot of Eggs (+Faith's Reward), that might not be totally unplayable.
Its a combo card, no matter what (its either a piece that makes it broken, or its useless, theres nothing in between).

I want to make an Eggs variant with Pia's Revolution. They either let you continue to draw cards and play your cheap artifacts and ultimately get Grapeshoted or they get bolted down by cracking all of these, then you have Galvanic Blast/Lightning Bolt to help do the job.

Can you counter a planeswalker ability with disallow?
Yes, as it is an activated ability
Standard - Some kind of control
Modern - UB Mill (casual)
EDH - Meren's Grave Shenanigans
Even Chromatic Star becomes X: Draw X cards until a player pays 3 life..well that and draw X cards this turn over the bauble.
Honestly, that enchantment looks pretty busted.

Good luck with Pia's Revolution. There's a reason Athreos, God of Passage saw no play.
Disallow's cool, though. And the other two are interesting.
That is so incredible "likely" its almost guaranteed that we see such an effect.
Most likely blue in kinds of "tinker".
But with Convoke as a mechanic and all the vehicles and such, this is a "must" print.

I was thinking of calling it Burnt Eggs, but yeah, pretty much.
Or why not... Fried Eggs o_O
That can work too, but I'm not trying to feed my opponent some delicious fried eggs I want them to have Burnt Eggs. In the end though either works.
