Red Dragon is a possible auto include in Rakdos, Lord of Riots EDH? Average of 3 opponents is an extra cost reduction of 12 mana, which is nothing to sneeze at. Though it'd be fighting for a slot with plenty of other cards, I'd say this is a fantastic budget option.
Whoa what a weird reprint i would like to see Submerge and Massacre but both might be really dangerous of ban territory in modern
I sadly have not played modern in quite a bit so I don't know what % of the format runs what colors but how often would Massacre be free? Submerge I can defiantly see being free quite often but how many decks in modern are currently x/x/W?
On a related note though this is a nice reprint and I'm glad it's keeping the original art.
Where's Dredge on the likelihood of getting printed list? I thought it was in the "Ooops, that was a mistake" zone?
This is a reprint from MH1
Interesting... But still (ok, this would be an old debate at this point...), but the keyword dredge was deemed a mistake years prior to MH1. Guess they are reneging on that one...
I've always viewed dredge as something that's fine to reprint as long as you're not printing it with a massive dredge count. I think the magic number is 3, as long as it doesn't exceed that it's mostly fine, especially on a utility card like this. Otherwise you start adding far too much to your graveyard and it swings back to being busted.
EDIT: Oh, and now mention of Witch's Clinic yet? I mean, it's not a total staple, decks with non-combat utility commanders would likely rather have a colored-mana-producing land, but for anything with a beefier commander that wades into battle, this is a pretty good choice. Especially if you have a bunch of "lifegain matters" cards.
The Clinic can also potentially be a politics kind of card since you can do it to other player's commanders. It depends on the deck that wants it really.
Calling it now, the Planeswalker is Phyrexian Koth.
This actually unlikely as Jin Gitaxias is supposed to be the one infiltrating Strixhaven, I doubt they'd double up in the infiltration team. And even so as far as we know Koth and Melira are still fighting the good fight.
This makes me very happy. You have no idea how many times in the last week I've clicked on my bookmark for this site and suddenly been hit with "Yeah this place is closing soon.." again and it just feel like a kick in the stomach. Knowing there's something in the works feels good.
This place has been my go to resource for magic for quite a long time now, from custom card discussions, to rules questions, to rumors and spoilers. I'm going to miss this site a lot.
Rakdos, Lord of Riots loves his new wing man.
Am I a joke to you???

And with mostly generic mana, Rakdos, lord of riots would love to be her mentor.
And here all I was thinking was chandra's ignition
oh...oh no... oh crap. That's um... hmmm. Yeah something here will need to get banned.
