Bonus Round is so insane in my Wort, the Raidmother fireballs deck. One of the biggest issues I run into in going off is that I sometimes don't have enough creatures to conspire everything I need to conspire. Now I just need to conspire one spell to go off.
I like that the wizard draws a card to replace the exiled creature
It's more like looting, but if it's a creature, you get a clone.
Anyway, wow, Bonus Round. Just...I hereby decree that the bonus round shall be known as "twinstants".
And LOL Zndrsplt's a rules lawyer.

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!
... Arcane Archanist feels like it is something they'd put in an unglued set. That's possibly the most powerful Quicksilver Amulet ever printed, since the player gets a token of the card they discarded, a new card, and still has a mana up to run counter magic. Even in the current standard pool of cards she would work in improvise decks easily. Legacy, that isn't even a turn 3 play as much as a turn 1 or turn 2 play due to all the resources someone can access early in the game.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
Must resist the inquiry how the heck they determine the gender for a friggin' homunculus....
I think this is us falling into the trap of a failure of most fantasy games. The sexist, outdated fantasy trope is to give make males and females of a species look the same, but the males are muscular and the females have breasts (See Minotaurs and Catfolk for reference). But in real life, there are more different, ways, sometimes subtle, sometimes not, that sexes of a species are determined - coloring, size, additional features, etc. We have to assume that in a world where Homunculi are common place, most people are familiar with these differences. And also, yeah, you can just ask. Better to be right than to make assumptions

Draft my cube! (630 cards)
EDIT: OMG and when I cast it, I'll say "We're entering the lightning round!"
This reminds me of a pseudo Show and Tell on a stick.
This is going to be really fun...
I mean that my friends will hate me but I'm gonna do the same.

On phasing:
It goes infinited with Manamorphose and Noxious Revival after all.
Might be much cheaper if it works without Lion's Eye Diamond simply with more red rituals.

Presumably they asked her.
Karn is an artificial being with no genitals and yet we refer to him as he and him because he's got a male persona.

I believe he's supposed to be nonbinary, but he doesn't especially care if male pronouns are used. Maro made some comment about this on his blog.
