Hold on, where's my creature-creep indignance hat?
When did it become okay to print a 2/4 flying for 2W with multiple upsides? I don't see why they need to keep moving the goalpost here.
Mini-tirade over. Until next time. It won't be long.
Totally agree. I had to check twice if they really did that. Card like this just feel wrong, even if they do them regularly these days. This card will be very annying in limited too, which is something I wish they tried to avoid outside of mythic rares at least.
Damn, I really just wanted a beautiful viking world. What theros was for greek mythology I wanted now for norse mythology. Period. Add some top down mechanics and a nice showcase frame and I'm happy.
What I didn't want was onslaught 4.0 full blown tribal set and now also not phayrexian invasion 3.0 man.
I hope I can just pick up two or three fitting cards for my cube in the showcase frame and then I'll be waiting for time spiral remastered and modern horizons 2.
Am I the only one really tired of getting tribal in every f*cking set? It tends to draft and play out pretty boring most of the time, yet people seems to love it and Maro and friends put it in every single set. Zendikar 3 had 4 tribal themes (or even 5, but party was at least innovative). Even sets like Eldraine, which were supposed to be about something else get 2 tribal themes. These numbers are not too far from "tribal sets" like Onslaught (5) or Ixalan (4).
So in Time Spiral remastered, we will get modern cards in old card frames - kind of the shwcase cards of the set I assume and ver exciting for old fogeys like me, who would love to "upgrade" some cards in their cubes. So far, the only cards shwon are Path to Exile (in the attachments you see it), Relentless Rats and Chalice of the Void. Quite a mix already, two constructed power houses and a casual fan favorite. But what else do you guys think we can expect?
Original Time spiral (the set) had 121 old border reprints, 18 of each color, 15 multicolored cards and 16 colorless artifacts/lands. I expect we will get an equal ratio this time as well.
Original Time spiral reprinted a few constructed cards (Shadowmage Infiltrator) as well as some really janky ones (Orcish Librarian). This time, we already got spoiled two very strong cards, so maybe there will be a little more in terms of tournament worthy cards? Basides that, I hope for lots of casual all stars that can go into my lower powered cube. Here are a few I hope for:
Another interesting question is: Will they create old frames for cards, that didn't exist back then? Planeswalkers? Vehicles, Enchantment creatures or just Hybrid cost cards? I dont think they will, honestly, as that would reduce the nostalgia feeling, probably.
Also, these cards remind me how sweet blue was in TSP block.

100% agree, I am also a little annoyed.
