MTG Salvation

Corgis love to eat tokens I guess.
This triggers on attack and not on ETB, unlike my first read, and that changes the card a lot. But it's a corgi so I love it already!

Looks completely busted. Too bad the art is terrible.

Easy include. This just looks fantastic to me.

Flash goes a long way towards fixing the "has to attack" problem, but I've found the blink deck too durdly for modern cube speeds and so I'm not really interested in cards that only support that deck.

Mox Amber, Mox Amber!

I like that this ability can be used for blink value or to clear blockers out the way. Really neat design. I don't run any real blink support right now, but this may make the grade for testing.

This is a great card. The best white 2 drop is the new Ajani, but to me this competes with Thalia for 2nd or 3rd best white 2 cmc.

I think this is a 360 staple and will replace either Lion Sash or Flickerwisp for me.

I also feel like 360 has reached critical cheap legend density at this point for Mox Amber to be a viable card. In such a fast format with so many cheap card advantage engine creatures the worst case of mulliganing yourself is not that bad in exchange for the explosiveness of a couple Lotus Petals and the best case scenario of another Mox.

Wow, this does a LOT more than support Blinks. This kills Boo + a million other things. And it get bigger?!

White 2's never not impossibly hard to fit in.

A high pick blink support card. Charming Prince has been a bit underwhelming, I think I'll make that swap.

I'm a bit dubious about the blink trigger being on attack, seems there are lots of situations where attacking means throwing away your blinker. Of course, if you can blink more than once, that does make up for it compared to one time blinkers such as Charming Prince (which does have other modes which sometimes is relevant). That, and there's the possibility to blink your opponent's stuff, although there are many creatures that you really don't want to blink, so this is not super reliable. Not so easy to evaluate.

I must say I'm also very much turned off by the fact that this is a happy, excited corgi. It seems very out of theme to me, strangely enough even more than for instance the 40k cards where I had similar thematic reservations (I'm not bothered by those anymore). Feels almost like an un-card. I'll admit this is entirely a me-problem.

Laelia in dog form? Vulnerable for the same number of main phases, presents a comparable clock, and potentially gains you value on every swing? Move aside Isamaru, we have a new best doggo in town.

Important difference between this and Laelia is that this doesn’t pump until end of turn, so it’s much more vulnerable to trading in combat.

Oops, missed that. So not quite the second coming of Laelia, but still really damn good.

Played against this in a friends cube and its was an absolute house. Being able to remove blockers, being flash speed, blinking your own thing, and being able to grow bigger is so much value wrapped in one package.

It's plays better than it looked, and I was already into it based on the spoilers.

Also, Mox Amber.

I am hype, it does a lot of things I already like to do in cube. Might cut charming prince , but that is a lazy choice, maybe I just need to up total blink

Galepowder mage was one of my favorites for years before it was outclassed. I might try out the new galepowder dog, altho flying really gave the mage a lot of oomph.

Yeah phelia seems nuts. I thought it would be good but I underestimated just so many interactions it has.
Flash, growing larger every turn , killing tokens, preventing blocks, flickering permanents you own for value.

From what I’ve seen in modern testing it seems even better than Ajani/stoneforge there.
so impressive.

Sounds like people are using Phelia to blink a flipped Ajani and comboing with Phyrexian Tower to sack the cat tokens. Interesting combo for sure.

Phelia has been nuts. It's only weakness is that sometimes a 2/2 cannot profitably attack in. A strong interaction that has come up is the pairing with Steel Seraph. Giving Phelia flying is amazing, and Phelia can blink the Seraph to turn it to a 5/4 (and grow itself). Absolutely insane 2->3 curve.

This card is just absolutely ridiculous.

If this card was just 2 mana 2/2 flash and it gets +1/+1 at the end of turn, this might already be playable.

However, you can not only blink your own stuff for value, but you can blink your OPPONENT'S tokens / blockers to get in damage.
