When Cabal Tormenter enters the battlefield exile up to one target creature card from a graveyard. You may cast that card for as long as it remains exiled and may spend mana as though it was mana of any type to cast it, if you do that creature is a black nightmare in addition to it’s other colors and types.
”Remember your past friends?... Well they certainly remember you.”

IIW: If the Phyrexians and Eldrazi met

Interesting that it enters with a counter already, did they do that to make it dodge tokens or was it so that it plays nicely with proliferate? Perhaps both?

Also interesting to note, if your opponent plays this and then activates the xxt ability to answer your bomb permanent, if you can proliferate just once before they untap it makes the land pretty much useless unless they have a way to remove a counter.

IIW: Cards for unconventional tribes

His -2, besides being removal, also is a decent enabler for enrage dinos. Too bad they can only fight opponents creatures, I guess they thought his card would be too strong vs control if you could force two of your own creatures to fight.

Not sure how relevant it is, but his +1 pops moxes and artifact lands and his -2 goes nicely with the other 4 mana karn.

There seems to be enough “cares about a creature with 4 power or greater” in this set that I’m surprised they didn’t bring back the ferocious keyword.

Interesting that the draw/discard ability that is a part of the -2 is mandatory. If you like you hand and have scryed and kept the top card of your library, then perhaps it’s best not to activate her at all.

It’s a slightly cheaper answer to Problem creatures in mono blue than deep freeze and doesn’t gum of the ground as much.

Screen captured from Numot’s stream, he then hinted that he might be spoiling Kasmina’s card later in the day.

Here’s the card text

Kasmina’s Transmutation 1U
Enchantment - Aura
Enchant Creature
Enchanted creature loses all abilities and has base power and toughness 1/1
”Hop away now, little Eternal. Go eat some flies” - Kasmina

I like delirious piper, a very red effect. It is not a “may” ability so The opponent’s creatures always must attack, clearing the way for a counter attack if the player playing the piper survives the initial attack. Also doubles as selective removal similar to the provoke mechanic, but with more downside. My only suggestion is that I feel the effect might be too powerful for a common. Then again maybe not, it depends on the limited environment the card would be played in.

Etherial Oppressor WW
Creature - Spirit Horror
Flying
Permanents your opponents’ control lose all non-mana abilities on your turn.
“Shhhh... It’s coming”
2/1

Perhaps rather than direct emblem interactions, I could see some enchantments that act as a sort of overwhelming splendor for emblems your opponents control. Where the emblems lose all abilities while the enchantment is on the battlefield.

I could also see stuff like solemnity for emblems, where players can’t get emblems as long as it’s on the battlefield.

I can see a limited environment with a lot of planeswalkers working fine so long a there are enough ways of interacting with the walkers that don’t require attacking them. Stuff like banishing light at uncommon, bramblecrush in green, a red lava coil variant that can hit planeswalkers and creatures, maybe a sorcery speed common black removal spell that hits walkers and creatures with a cmc of 5 like Deadly Visit and some sort of lockdown enchantment in blue that keeps creatures tapped and can also be put on walkers to prevent adding loyalty (or prevents using loyalty abilities that subtract loyalty).
