Cursed Mirror says "As Cursed Mirror enters the battlefield, you may have it become a copy of any creature on the battlefield..." I have a question about the wording. Clones says "You may have Clone enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature on the battlefield," so it enters as a copy and triggers any ETBs. But this says "as it enters, it may become a copy" - does that mean it doesn't get any ETBs of the copied creature? Does it even count as entering as a creature, or is it becoming once afterward? Is it too late to trigger?
I'd like to put it in Purphoros, God of the Forge if it can trigger Purphoros and make more tokens by copying a Siege-Gang Commander.
I dont like the white treasure enchantment. Way too easy to play around until it doesnt matter and it doesnt synergize at all with the abundance of white cards that restrict casts per turn to 1
Phyrexian Triniform is the worse version of triplicate titan. I really wanted to use it but just could not pay 9cc even in commander for a base body that has no evasion, Titan though goes immediately in. Bronze Guardian is a must have for me so yeah this is definitely a buy for me.
Which part of alibou's card make her white? The card could be monored imo
I honestly don't get this sentiment. Mono white and boros have been at the bottom of the commander totem pole for ages, and then when they print something decent that bends or breaks the color pie people wonder why Wizards didn't just keep doing the same ol' thing. Do you want them to keep printing bad cards? Because conforming to old color archetypes is a surefire way to do exactly that.
Maybe this is white or boros' new thing; let's enjoy the ride while it lasts.
Here's everything else, including an extra White card and what I assume is the shared card of the decks.
Are they no longer doing the thing where cards in multiple, but not all decks are uncommon? Could be, since it looks like either that or that there aren't any such cards.

Maro has talked a bit about wanting to move Scry more into White, especially large amounts of Scry. That aspect of it certainly isn't a monored ability, so it's quite possible it's an early peek at something they're moving into or at least adding to white.

Just because i see a card, that based to my interpretation of the colorpie could be monored and i perceive it as them slapping onto it white, just so they can call it boros, makes me want to have bad cards printed? :/
A simple lifelink first/double strike or vigilance could have pulled the trick.

Right. A bunch of cards with those effects already exist, and weren't exactly pulling boros out of its perpetual hole. My point was that if you're asking them to do that same ol' thing, you are kinda wishing for them to keep printing bad cards.
This is strange new territory, but it's good. Why question that?

Its not even that really a new, white like artifact and creatures and has cared about liking artifact creatures as well as first or second color that cares about combat.
Regardless multicolored cards don't have to mix the two colors abilities they can just effectively do something both colors can do. While alibou leans more red, the caring about artifact creatures is a white thing.

I would add that any flavor of golem can or should feel appropriately white after the impact of Blade Splicer.
Hadn't considered "dealing damage as a consequence of combat" as something white, that's a good catch. The bend here is that it can hit any target and not just critters.
Hmmm, half of Toralf, God of Fury is an artifact, and I will take any excuse to run Repercussion. RobotHamlet.dec is starting to take shape in my brain.
Well, the artifact cube just got quite a bit more interesting. Holy Smokes. Thanks, Wizards.
IKR! I was ignoring all the Lorehold spells matter graveyard stuff but this came along, and had to order one from my LGS.
Definite includes for me include Digsite Engineer, Losheel, CLockwork Scholar (White CA!) and of course, Triplicate Titan. Cursed Mirror seems like a good addition, too!
A color that's typically behind in terms of raw card advantage or resources should have significantly better drops on-curve, but for some reason that's usually green's shtick - a color that also happens to get both card advantage and resources.
while none of the abilities it can build up a little faster with encore
It does actually. Encore at 12 means it had to die/been saced once. Unless you can get trample or flying on triniform its just not worth the 9 it costs or the 12 it needs to encore unless it can attack once or twice and solidly hit. The built in evasion on titan is very relevant even if your not getting 9 tokens off it from a encore.

White gets the most efficient removal, the best 1 and 2 drops, and goes back and forth with green for efficiently costed keyword soup creatures, like Baneslayer Angel

Honestly, over the last few years is that true? What white removal was super efficient that wasn't a board wipe? What massive white soup creature was there since Dominaria? Blue seems to be getting far better removal and green tends to have far more efficient creatures that surpass white.

White is the centric of small artifacts (i.e., Eggs, trinkets, equipments), which works best with Alibou's ability. White is also more inclined to scrying than red. Were it mono-red, it probably wouldn't have scrying at all, and the damage might be based on the highest cc artifact instead of numbers.

I think that's a problem with WotC is that they don't seem to understand efficiency in 60 cards does not equate efficiency in 100 cards singleton. Yet, for the longest time they tried to create white cards in EDH base on 60 cards mentality, which is why they tend to suck. Instead of a 2cc 3/1, even a 2cc 5/1, they need more cards like Keeper of the Accord, and Archangel of Thune instead of Baneslayer.
It copies ETBs. I'd love a good clone that doesn't though
I dont like the white treasure enchantment. Way too easy to play around until it doesnt matter and it doesnt synergize at all with the abundance of white cards that restrict casts per turn to 1
Monologue Tax is so wretched it doesn't even deserve the effort of a scathing critique.
They missed a trick here not reprinting the Ruby and Pearl Medallions. Would've much preferred them (or even one of them) to another Daretti reprint.
Just wait until you see Jason Felix's version.

Triplicate Titan packs way more boom
I'm a hopeless Timmy, I see 9/9 for 9 with all upside, I hit Like.

does it beat the Phyrexian Triniform?

It's part of the new white card advantage initiative, if I am not mistaken. Enough to stay afloat, not enough to get ahead.
Both philosophically and mechanically, I kinda like that white doesn't get good draw. It doesn't seek answers because it has all the answers.
