The flavor is you send your hero or whoever on an adventure.
Mechanically: You may cast Welcome Home as a sorcery from the battlefield, as if the adventure was a card 'in hand'. The card (Flaxen intruder included) moves to the stack, and the spell resolves into the graveyard as such. Pretty similar in function to a sac ability, but it is actually casting a spell so that it interacts with cost reduction, cast triggers, storm, etc.
It makes sends with the format: "Welcome Home" is formatting like a mini-card. And it exists in the text box, so it's only active when Flaxen Intruder is in play -

Earthbound21 posted a message on The State of Modern Thread (B&R 20/05/2019)As these forums drift to the internet graveyard, I would like to share a few parting thoughts. I joined this website nearly a decade ago, when Modern was announced. I spent a lot of time reading these forums, and little bit of time posting on these forums. I played through all the bannings and unbannings, each and every one, and I have to say that Modern is fine. It was always fine and it will always be fine. Formats don't last for ten years if they aren't fine. That Origins forward format that no one remembers? Gone. Didn't even last a year. Modern has the ability to correct itself and when it doesn't, Wizards takes action. These forums, at one place, were a veritable hive of real discussion. And to those people, I say;Posted in: Modern Archives
Modern is fine, and will be fine.
This website is a veritable treasure trove of deck lists, deck musings, deck theory, and it's all nicely categorized for anyone who wanted to seek this information. Mad respect to the people who contributed in a meaningful and the organizers who made the meaningful things easy to find. My hat is off to all of your collective hard work for the past ten years. Sheridan is a goddamn treasure, and his writings here and on modern nexus are real gems in a sea of low effort deck list 'articles' by people who play the game for a living. I have nothing but respect for you Sheridan. You do the good work.
However, the people on these forums, idSurge and cfusionpm and the other handful of the rest of them that drive their agenda down peoples throats and parrot the same tired lines with their free time for the better part of the past ten years saying that Modern is awful and stifling meaningful discussion; You guys won't be missed. You've wasted all of your time, and by extensions a lot of our time with your regurgitated, entitled, petulant crap. The amount of pure garbage that the group of you used to domineer conversations that could have otherwise been productive is staggering, to say the least. Whatever platform you find yourselves on after this ship sinks, know that the lot of you are at least in part responsible for driving participation down and costing the website views purely to satiate your internet egos.
MTGSalvation, goodnight. Sleep well.

Because people hate, hate, hate mana screw. It's possibly the single most disliked thing about Magic. And they especially hate getting mana screwed so hard they have to mulligan down to 5 or less and effectively lose the game before it's begun. It's why susbsequent TCGs have either eliminated the possibility of mana screw entirely (e.g. Hearthstone) or at least made it dramatically harder to occur (Pokemon TCG). I saw Richard Garfield say in a lecture he was giving that he regrets the way the mana system created mana screw.Quote from Colt47 »What does the mulligan fix, and why is it better than the old way?
Not only is it not fun to be the player, it's not particularly fun to watch someone on coverage lose a game due to having to mulligan repeatedly.
Unfortunately, the mana system is so engrained in the game you can't truly fix mana screw. Ideas like giving people guaranteed lands don't work because unlike Hearthstone, the game's balance is based around not being guaranteed to make all your land drops. But they can at least try to make it feel less punishing and not "well, I lost the game before my turn even started", which this mulligan rule is trying to do. -

WizardMN posted a message on [MH1] Modern Horizons Discussion ThreadPosted in: Modern
We get, after 75 cards spoiled, 4 new counterspells to Modern (one specifically to stop creatures), Fact or Fiction, Cabal Therapist, Urza, Crypt Rats (which stops creatures), Aria of Flame, Planebound Accomplice, Spore Frog (which stops combat damage), Collected Conjuring, Altar of Dementia, Mox Tantalite. These are not cards that promote turning creatures sideways. These are not cards that say R&D is afraid of permission based Magic. But because we aren't getting counterspell, Wizards are quite literally the devil and should be shunned forever...Quote from Fyrwulf »R&D is just run by filthy casuals who regard the height of Magic as turning creatures sideways after drafting them. Constructed decks where instants and sorceries are king are the devil in their world, because being told no and going from 20 to 0 in a turn isn't "fair". But what else can you expect from mouth-breathing knuckle draggers?
Yes, they didn't give us Counterspell and I am disappointed in that as well. I don't feel it is too powerful for the format but the omission from this set doesn't say anything other than they decided to give us others first. As much as we are "sure" that Counterspell will not break anything, it isn't like Blue is in this terrible position where only Counterspell can make it great again.
Your indictment of their decision making process is incredibly tone deaf considering what we have gotten recently, both in this set and previous sets, when it comes to Blue permission based decks. Teferi is not an aggro card; Search for Azcanta is not an aggro card, Jace is not an aggro card. The fact that we have these cards suggests you have no idea what you are talking about and putting yourself in this position of "WotC hates anything but creatures" simply because we aren't getting Counterspell is incredibly inane. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.
