As an EDH player who loves playing with mana rocks, all that I can say is COME TO PAPA!
Seriously, consider what is out there. Azami, Kydele, Captain Sisay, Kaho, and either Selvala can easily start spinning towards near-infinite chains.
That's not even counting commanders that just have "good" tap abilities like Hannah, Krenko, Kiki-Jikki, Muzzio, or Yisan.

Rosy Dumplings posted a message on Tezzeret the SchemerI... I think that I can actually see "the dream" here. On turn 4 and 5, you make a mana dork. On turn 6, you crack the ultimate and one of your lotus petals becomes a 5/5. On the next turn, your other lotus petal becomes a 5/5. After that, you can slowly transform every smuggler's copter, chromatic star, or what-have-you into 5/5s. If you can somehow keep Tezeret alive one additional turn, you can start cranking out and animating a mana dork each turn... stopping only to kill opponent threats with the -2.Posted in: Tezzeret the Schemer
IF you can pull that off, Tez becomes overwhelming and can take over a game. With that said, protecting this guy (even in control colors) for the two turns needed to ult (much less the three turns needed to "safely" ult) is... difficult in the current meta. -

Acidiccobhc posted a message on Tezzeret the SchemerI think he has some potential. protection shouldnt be a problem. drop a puzzleknot and blocker then he comes down turn four and makes a lotus petal. Now you have mana for dispel, Invasive Surgery, or Ceremonious Rejection. make another petal next turn and get him through to turn six and he ultimates. notice his his ultimate doesn't say til end of turn, so you get to ensoul artifact every turn. and if you wait one more turn to fire off his ultimate then he stays in the game making a petal that you can then ensoul. Just building up an army that you can sac for mana. i wanna throw him into an esper deck. curve out with thraben inspector into smuggler' coptor or scrapheap scrounger. Oath of gideon gets him an additional loyalty and two bodies to crew or block. you could fire him off as early turn five with a copter in the air an ensouled clue token on the ground and 6 mana up. Sounds pretty good to me.Posted in: Tezzeret the Schemer -

Butterqup posted a message on Tezzeret the SchemerHear Hear! What's with the rampant entitlement every spoiler season that leads players to believe that every Rare or Mythic slot must be playable? We've seen far worse. Not every Mythic can be worth the price of the booster, nor a windmill slam wincon.Posted in: Tezzeret the Schemer -

compucrazy posted a message on Tezzeret the SchemerWow, am I the only one who'd rather see planeswalker like Tez be a niche, build-around-me card as opposed to a Gideon, where you slap it in any deck that can produce white mana?Posted in: Tezzeret the Schemer -

master_of_the_universe posted a message on Tezzeret the SchemerSo he craps out Lotus Petals as his +1, gives a flowstone boost to a creature as his -2, and pumps out 5/5s as his -7. Seems like a pretty good combination at 4 mana, and 5 starting loyalty certainly helps.Posted in: Tezzeret the Schemer -

Agreed on the mechanics, but it should be noted thst Yahenni's pronouns are they/them. The story explicitly says as much.

Yeah quick artifact generators are a definite must. Such as Tezzeret himself. Or, I don't know, the entirety of Kaladesh?
Sweet jesus this card is not worth the poo-pooing people are spewing out.

AnotherZoruaAmongUs beat me to the explanation. Obviously I meant copying the ETB effect since that's literally the only thing Panharmonicon interacts with
I suggest that you rtfc before coming on here with a snobby condescending attitude, sir or madame.

Well firstly, who said we expected a planeswalker card? Ajani is clearly in this story, on Kaladesh, and that's awesome enough for now.
Secondly, how do you know there won't be an Ajani planeswalker this set? According to MaRo, WotC usually leaves 5 card slots per set for Planeswalkers. We have 4, Nissa, Chandra, Saheeli, and Baal. (the Planeswalker intro decks presumably don't count towards the 5 slots, for developmental reasons) So who's to say that Ajani won't be included?
Truthfully, the slot will probably go to Tezzeret for color reasons- he's been UB before, and there's no black planeswalker on this set yet.
But still, it's fun to get excited at the possibility of Ajani.
Thirdly, even though there's not likely to be an Ajani planeswalker this set, there's still Aether Revolt. Perhaps he'll be given a card in the second set, after being mentioned in the first. (just like Tamiyo, Thalia, Tazri, and more)
Fourthly, man, why did you need to be so rude about it? We're all here to get excited about the new set, there's no need to rain on everybody's parade with big authoritative declarations based on incomplete information and premature conclusions, and there's no need to downvote all the excited posts. Makes me glad I upvoted them all.
Calm down, bud.

That's a bit imbalanced tbh.
This is a very well-balanced card, even if it can be answered. It forces your opponent to burn their removal, and if they can't the advantage you gain is HUGE.
