Hey guys, I am friends with a few of the guys who were on the community cup team that beat Wizards. While in Renton they caught a glimpse of some m11 sketches and have kept this a secret until now. Magma Jet will be an uncommon in m11.
1R Instant Magma Jet deals 2 damage to target creature or player. Scry 2
Also returning as a rare and replacing Mind Spring will be Stroke of Genius.
X2U Instant. Target player draws X cards.
Both cards have completely new art. Greg Staples did the art for Magma Jet and rk post is the artist for Stroke of Genius.
without damage stacking because wizards likes dumbing the game down for ☺☺☺☺☺☺ noobs, the card is merely just ok. nice in limited, but no longer good enough for serious standard. thnx wizards.
I don't understand the argument. I played at PT San Diego and some of the other events. Blue is criminally underplayed (because its so underpowered) right now and any player with half a brain knows this. It is a big problem in standard that needs fixing and sadly ROE won't help.
This one time I was walking through the park. Then I got mugged, beaten up, and chemical burned. Then I was thrown face first into a pile of dog crap.
And I'd rather go through all that again before I play with Rise of Eldrazi.
In limited, there won't be any skill involved. There are a ridiculous amount of limited bombs and games will come down to unanswerable bombs and auras stupid.
Level up is ripping off Pokecrap. Magic keeps becoming more like pokecrap every day.
In constructed, more stupid overpowered creatures to dumb the game down. Yes they made the format slower but somehow dumbed the game down even more.
On the behalf of Blue mages everywhere let me reiterate that these 3 cards represent a slap in the face.
I'm not counting the merfolk lord because, come on, who cares about another merfolk lord
Thank you. Especially if this is the real Jeff Cunningham. As a current pro, these cards make me absolutely sick. Aaron and the development team need to be slapped
Calling all blue players: Time to quit magic. We were promised good blue cards and this is what we get?! Allow me to explain why these are bad.
Lay Bare-Discombobulate was never played. So they made a worse version. Brilliant.
the merfolk lord-in older formats, merrow rejery and atlantis are much better. In standard, all the merfolk outside of Sejiri Merfolk suck. Swing and a miss.
the new draw 3- garbage. remember kids blue is not the color of eldrazi spawn. and there is too much removal in std to be worth it. deserves testing in weird ext dredge decks. fine in limited, espec sealed
deprive- blue's problem is not the late game,it wins the late game, it's being able to defend itself on turn 2. this card sets you back too much. its a horrid card that might see play because there arent any other options.
no one is saying give us back mana drain and ancestral recall. but these cards are a joke, just like standard will continue to be. wizards lied to us
What i'm saying is, usually the first 3 turns are spent playing your own threats, not sitting back and playing a hard counter.
I'm not advocating playing this in the first 2-3 turns, that was my whole point.
Are rune snag and leak better than this in the early turns? absolutely. Later on? maybe not. But i'd say that the applications and the decks they go in might be different. Like i said in an agro control blue deck you want to drop threats for the first few turns and then sit back and protect them and ride to victory, this spell seems perfectly acceptable in that role in that sort of deck.
I'm not saying this is amazing and will see lots of play, but to dismiss it completely and label it as unplayable and not worthy of consideration is just silly.
And to label this as playable and worthy of consideration is silly. You have obviously never won a tournament match playing islands. This card is a slap in the face to all blue mages
First, Mana Leak was true, it is in m11 replacing Essence Scatter. But for whatever reason, mods locked my thread.
Second, Stroke and Jet are in. You'll see in a month. I'm just trying to help this great website
