Regarding "Strange Temptations":
I wonder if it would be printable if we edited to " Search for a card with a subtype". Maybe, "Search for a card with multiple types".
The 12/26/23 random card of the day is Woolly Spider. If you have any comments, combos or a decklist involving this card, feel free to share.
This was part of Olle Rade's Pro Tour winning spider deck. He was immortalized in Sylvan Safekeeper for winning an invitational, when the prize was creating a magic card.
Here's that image.
Never knew this, thanks for sharing.
I'll add one last tidbit. After Olle won the invitational, he quit playing magic for several years. By the time he returned, he had shaven his head, therefore WOTC agreed to let him create the card with the condition that he would be depicted with his trademark long hair.

I like cube, so it doesn't matter that I know what riot does offhand. I need the card to tell people what it does who may not have been playing at exactly the moment riot came out, or may not remember since it was a random one-off mechanic. I can tell you for a fact if my sister saw riot without reminder text, she'd groan, roll her eyes, and say in an annoyed tone "okay, so what hell is riot?" I don't like annoying my players, alienating less experienced players, or making players give away information.
This is the most practical way to handle everything in this game.
Having the rules on the card seem a little more practical than fiddling with your phone lol
Or better yet, why don't they just write what the (nonevergreen ex mentor, etc..) mechanics do on the extra card in each pack instead of a marketing card?
The 12/07/23 random card of the day is Tasigur, the Golden Fang. If you have any comments, combos or a decklist involving this card, feel free to share.
A worse gurmag angler in legacy due to karakas but with some graveyard manipulation like Bow of Nylea or other "delve" cards, you can easily control what cards you can get back. Also a good political card in multiplayer formats.
I'm thinking something similar to
Crew: Tap a basic land
"UX03 gets +1/+1 for each artifact creature you control."
These were the third charm cycle printed. Mirage had the Seedling Charm cycle and Visions had Vision Charm cycle.
This is one of the 2 best ones of the cycle with Crosis's Charm

Would that make sense?

A bit of a flavor fail for the Billy goats gruff as they are now satyrs.
The original zendikar manlands like Raging Ravine are most popular but I still have a soft spot for the original manland Mishra's Factory
Isn't this effect more of a white ability?
I do think you need to edit the wording regardless as it will also make you destroy your own things like Rowan, Fearless Sparkmage.
Its a fair way to punish players for ramping.

Kai Budde was in the prior set.This was relegated to draft fodder.
Criminal Past with hermit druid could enable some combos.
It occurs to me that they can make 5 extra secret lairs of 5 of one basic, ex 5 mountains, 5 islands, etc...
I think this was the first instant x spell that could damage players. fireball and the others were all sorceries.
