Grove of the Burnwillows is degenerate in large formats and thoroughly hoses Aggro. River of Tears wouldn't be balanced, and the design works best with Blue anyhow. Horizon Canopy is very powerful (as evidenced by its price tag, which clues us into just how much better than a painland it is) and likely bad for the health of standard. Nimbus Maze likely just has flavor issues (on what world would a maze in the clouds be suitable?) and is somewhat clunky.
This could be done for flavor to stress the war torn nature of the plane, but other than that, they may just have wanted to protect the Banners from easy removal.
Thanks Wilmheath. I am more wondering about how the process of selling Tix works. Do I just message "MTGO TRADERS" in game and I'll be able to do it from there, or would I need to do something on your website.
How does selling your cards to MTGO Traders work? Do you have to repeatedly open trades to get rid of all of the cards in your collection, or is there something else to it.
Given that in a draft, only 24 cards will be useless in non-cube formats after a draft, that's pretty good. Definitely not the majority of cards drafted as some scare mongers would have you believe.
The clone is neat. The paragon cycle makes sense as it will play well with the Return to Ravnica block cards within Standard (much as Rancor did with Infect in M13). Convoke makes sense, though I wish it was a block mechanic.
