    lol, the bitterblossom pack is just bitterblossom and tokens


    Yea pretty dumb

    Well in its defense it’s only 30$ For that package and that’s 14$ less than what regular ones go for


    Yeah, it's definitely a deal.

    But like, when they said each pack is 3-7 cards, I (and I'm sure others) thought that excluded tokens.

    Seeing Visions makes me think of Serum Visions, Ponder, Preordain, etc. Kaleidoscope Dreams seems multicolor (5 color?) and I hope it has appropriately trippy or cool art.

    I think, based on just seeing the cats and Bitterblossom, this can be a step in the right direction even if some of these sets flop. They can really do any number of themes to fit any demand, and people can buy to fit their personal demand (someone may have several decks that need a Bitterblossom(s))

    I'd like to know what's in these before committing to the $200 purchase of all 7.

    Seems like an ok middle ground of things like FTV/masterpieces/mythic sets. Kind of a bummer they're only available for 24hrs each.


    Only available for 24 hours!?

    How much dumber can they get?

    Just make it limited print run like master sets


    The upside to this change is that it's printed to demand within that 24hr period. If you can place your order, you will get your product (unlike the Mythic sets).

    The downside is if you can't make the date or just forget, tough luck and get it from a reseller. A slightly longer period would be most appreciated (48hrs? A week?).

    Also, I don't think I read anywhere that they'll be limiting how many a customer can purchase.

    How much do you think he knows about swallows?

    Hail to the king, this guy is pretty fun looking.

    Just got the tracking for my two boxes, scheduled for next Tuesday. Paid with PayPal, wasn't able to track how many sold prior because I had to enter my account info before checking out.

    Honestly the late shipping is no surprise but I'm just glad I have shipping confirmation.

    To be clear, the first portion refers to the enchantment's owner, while the subsequent "your" refer to the controller, correct?

    Yeah, this is a very hard three turns to overcome.

    Not even in supplemental products like Commander Pre-cons? I thought they did, but now I can't think of an example off the top of my head.


    The only exception I can think of is the Domain mechanic from Conflux, which was added to a few cards retroactively from the Invasion/Planeshift era.


    Afterlife seems like it'd be welcome in Orzhov Commander decks.

    Ok, so you can cast one artifact, one creature, one enchantment, and one Planeswalker, and also get one land.


    You forgot Instants, Sorceries, and Tribal

    Does her second ability count for General damage?

    Great card, otherwise. Go ninja! Go ninja, go!

    So how do you play this card? Do you need to have 8 mana available? What if you try to cast it without the full mana cost, but no one Assists?

    Sliverdrazi. WUBRG. Slivers you control have Annihilator X, where X is the number of Slivers you control.


    This would be funnier if Annihilator wasn't high on the Storm Scale (meaning it has an extremely low chance of seeing the light of day again in a new Standard set).


    Would it have been less or more funny if it was Sliverstorm, a storm spell that makes Slivers? Wink

    Really I'm just trying to think of something a new lord could do. Landfall, but Slivers? Sliver God, requiring a devotion to Slivers? A Sliver vehicle?

    Honestly, I'd like a functional reprint of Sliver Queen (Broodmother maybe?). Something that can make tokens without tapping.

    At least it will be slivers and not predators (if they show up)(hope they don’t come with a bulls*** like “it is evolution baby” for doing humanoid slivers


    It'll probably be classic slivers with the modern "all slivers you control" wording. Dominarian/Rathi Slivers seem to be a breed within the Sliver species, much like how elves, goblins, and merfolk can look different among the planes.
