MTG Salvation

LOOOVE this card. Kahlni Heart Expedition + Steppe Lynx was my jam back in the day. I'm going to build a $20 budget Zoo deck that my nephew can beat up on his friends with at the kitchen table. Then I'm going to secretly build a version with Fetches and all the other stuff those kids can't afford and proceed to beat the living snot out of him at Thanksgiving. Why? Because those stupid lands are required for anyone to really compete at the tournament level and it's important for him to learn early on that WotC doesn't want us to have nice things. Now where on Earth did I put my Plated Geopede's? Probably next to my Adventuring Gear's.

This card's pretty fantastic, especially since it's also a white land. These modal land/spell cards are so much better than you people are giving them credit for. Especially in a set that is coupled with Landfall. They're like the Swiss Army knives that a plane like Zendikar requires. This is a land in the first couple turns when I need it and a finisher when I draw it late.

It doesn't look splashy but this is a good addition to token strategies in EDH, specifically for and . Sometime's the pump spell will do some real work. Often times it will be a land that white decks so often need. This will be a 1.00 card after Mitch wins a game with it on Commander's Quarters.

Harmonic Sliver, Manaweft Sliver, and Sinew Sliver!! Whoop! Whoop!

I’ll be interested in tracking down a copy of each, especially if they had new art! Harmonic Sliver is somewhat challenging to find nm/m foils Of.

My understanding is the art is of the most recently printed art. So... no new art.


Also... Storm Crow and Chimney Imp?....

Because Wizards thinks it’s better to give us meme cards, rather than something we might actually want and use.

There's definitely a market for Storm Crow. I'm pretty critical about the stuff WotC prints these days but the added foils in this set get a nod and a 'that'll do pig' from me.

Lots of words on this thread. In other news I made a big batch of chili yesterday and am getting great reviews from all the coworkers I fed. The sun is shining, the snow is melting and I can finally go outside w/o a coat. For once my dog didn't track mud around the house nor did he pee on the floor this morning. All in all life's not that bad. If Zombieland taught us anything it's to enjoy the little things.

I am so in love with this Secret Lair product line! Keep em coming! I'm sorry some of you don't like/understand it. I get it, I feel the same way about Standard. You get your Embercleave and I get my Slivdrazi Monstrosity. Something for everyone!

I just knew I was going to hate this entire plane

Theros was an extremely underpowered set for its time. Theros 2.0 is just a noticeably worse version of that.

The price point is completely acceptable. It's normal for companies to price goods and services at a level that attracts a target audience. After decades of playing this game, I'm willing to pay a premium for unique products that are more visually appealing. I'd be much less interested if they cost $10 each and every 13 year old had a pile of them in their trade binder. Also keep in mind that most, if not all, of these Secret Lair cards will appreciate in value over time given their scarcity. Let's wait a few years before we start discussing their value.

I am totally the target audience for these lands but they're just not attractive to me. Same with the last ones. The Unhinged lands set the bar IMHO.

I may have been a buyer had they printed Relentless Rats over Rat Colony

Voltron Zur is at least mildly curious. I'm glad to see this, it feels really bad to go to enchantment world and have Zur get so few toys

Voltron Uril, the Miststalker feels the same way. But whatever, it's not like Uril and Zur are hurting for busted options. At least my Lorthos deck is going to be noticeably less janky.

Looks like a good limited card. I might've included it in EDH builds if it was five cards. It would've been awesome if they made it uncommon and upped it to six.

I think this card will do well in more competitive EDH groups where mana costs matter more.

Why is it there users that never known about commander

Doesn’t matter whatever con new 4CMC wrath’s are like always staples in edh depending on the strategy

As someone who plays almost exclusively commander there’s no way in hell I'm playing this.

I think this card will do well in more competitive EDH groups where mana costs matter more.

In standard ramp it's relatively easy to get to Nissa, Who Shakes The World and from Nissa this is almost trivial. Forests that tap for 6, Incubation Druids that tap for 9... only thing is... what do you do with all that mana? Electrodominance Stonecoil Serpent and Fling?

Fireball everything!

TIMMMAAAAHHHHHH!
