Ok I was somewhat worried that Terror of the Peaks was gonna be another Thundermaw Hellkite/Stormbreath Dragon "Ow my freaking wallet" situation. Mountain is cool I guess but I kinda already pimped my Ur-Dragon with the foil Unsanctioned basics. Also I like how in general that the dragon pack has more value in it than it actually should. I'd still want to open the one that has Oracle of Mul-Daya in it above all else but yeah.
Oh my god finally something that breaks the like, 2 year streak of absolutely awful dragons. For the first time in years I finally have one card, ONE CARD, to make me look forward to playing my The Ur-Dragon deck with.
Kaervek the Merciless was never exactly a constructed playable card but at least it was a really interesting one and a hilarious commander. All I can say for this one however is "It's a card."
The Wanderer randomly having a reference card in this set is actually kinda brilliant considering what her whole gimmick is. I hope we continue to have her randomly show up for no reason from time to time.
Also how is random guy bonding with Sprite Dragon in the card art for Corpse Churn not a story highlight
You know as a The Ur-Dragon main in EDH I found this set to be a massive disappointment. I mean we have a big monsters set that ties into EDH precons yet it only introduces a single dragon that actually isn't a big monster. If not dragon creatures I would hope that perhaps it would introduce something useful because it's been so long since anything useful for the deck was relea-*Notices the land types*
MTG plot has always been stupid. The "good" stories are the stupid ones that are also hilarious, like Emrakul making everyone turn her name into a pronoun and getting so fed up with the gatewatch that she gets herself sealed in the moon and away from those idiots. Or the one where Sarkhan makes Tarkir even worse and makes his own existence impossible while he casually exists.
"A Bird Maiden?"
"...Why do I even have that in my deck?"
*Laughs even harder at how bland Hellkite Punisher is, even right down to its name*

This changes everything...
This card though, stupid good is more like it.
