MTG Salvation

Holy crap yes. I love the artifact.dec, and she's going to be busted in that shell. And even in non-artifact centric decks, her middle {+} ability will probably "tap" for 2 or more pretty reliably.

Ohhh yea. This is exactly what Izzet wants in my cube.

Hey. Ral Zarek, don't let the door hit you in rear on your way out!

It does kind of bug me that the artifact deck is getting closer and closer to brown superfriends, but this is sweet.

20 years from now, the entire cube is going to be nothing but four-drop planeswalkers that make tokens to protect themselves.

I like Ral Zarek too much to cut him at 720, but I'm thrilled to finally show Prophetic Bolt the door.

This seems great for cube. Will replace other Saheeli for us. I'm surprised the second ability is a plus... Reminds me of Elspeth a bit.

Seems great. Likely will cut current Saheeli even though she's been very solid.

Card seems very good.
High loyalty, good ultimate, excellent artifact token to protect itself, explosive ramp in the right deck.

Ral zarek May be getting the boot for me. They serve somewhat similar functions (make a lot of mana in artifact deck + board prescence) but saheeli seems better.
Don’t think I want 3 izzet planes walkers.

I can certainly find room for this Saheeli. I think she makes top 4 for me as well. Maybe Dack > Saheeli > Charm > Signet?

I like her a lot, but don't think I like her more than Dack and don't love the idea of 2 PWs in a very limited guild section.

Given that I have 3 good-but-replaceable cards in my Izzet section, though, I will likely test her alongside Dack.

She has a lot of synergies in the artifact deck obviously, and goes well with Opposition/Purphoros. I am skeptical about how generically playable she is without those synergies, so being in a shallow guild helps her a lot.

Is she only going to come in a warped and poorly foiled version that’s hard to read because it’s too dark and kinda blurry? Hard pass if so... :-(

She'll only be available as the base foil she comes as in the box, yes. Don't know about the quality until we see one that's out of the package, but there won't be a non-foil available.

Getting this right after the new tezzeret is really nice, I'm excited for this grindy thopter walker business. Both feuling each other, setting up tezzeret as a draw engine and adding butt tons of mana seems like a very strong, natural duo.

Makes me want to add pia nalaar, but i don't have much experience with her.

Pia slipped by me initially but I've been REALLY impressed with her performance since I added her a few months back.

This Saheeli is yet another reason to test Retrofitter Foundry

I'm surprised and happy to hear about Pia's success. I always have to resist making my entire red section just daretti & friends.

This card is sweet and I'm playing it. Too many planeswalkers but when they make artifacts I just don't care. At 420, I'm cutting Dack's Duplicate when he just got back in and keeping Izzet Charm and Dack Fayden.

This seems like a good inclusion for 450+ where you have more room for artifacts. I'd include it if I wasn't at 360.

As many others have said, sooner or later all the best cards of each guild color will be planeswalkers, and we'll have to chose to either run the best cards available, or simply choose to cut back on planewalkers.

So I took a flyer on this card due to its under $5 price tag, and I gotta say I was pleasantly surprised by the foiling. I was so down on it when it spoiled because I thought it was gonna be hella warped and very dark like my Vial Smasher, but it is beautiful, easy to read, and my copy is perfectly flat!

How have people liked this card so far? Does it see any play in non-artifact archetypes?

Surprisingly playable with just a few other artifacts, and insanely strong if built around. She's not going anywhere for me for quite a while.

how's this for legacy cube? 600++ how is it holding up in your respective cubes? Dack and saheeli in izzet or too much planeswalker already???

I run a 540 unpowered cube, and Saheeli is great even without Moxen.

Saheeli is top 3 Izzet, IMO. Plays great if you don't mind having 2 walkers in UR.

She's great, and is different enough from Dak that I don't mind having them both. Dak is still better, so if you only want one, keep Dak, but I think they are easily the 1 and 2 cards in Izzet.

My cube is 465 unpowered but supports an artifact deck.

Yes this card is certainly great. We keep saying to other cube managers that don't run it that they are crazy not to. An absolute most have in power cubes that have a guild section with at least 4 spots. But personnally, I do agree it's in fact top 3 material.
