Legendary rule doesn't care about being identical, it cares about Name. As long as two legends have the same full card title on the same player's battlefield, one must die.

It's not normal for your Commander to be a Land, but on Methes it is. Arixmethes, not even once.

On the plus side, at least WoW's been changed to the point where no one would notice only having 4-6 buttons. So it'd be a pretty smooth transition.

The new quest chain is only half implemented right now. The next half is next tuesday, and is where you get the mount.

The new world quest gear should be fine for leveling in BFA, it's like 30 ilvls above what they started folks with on the beta.

The half-built Vaevictus Asmadi lands-matter deck that was put on hold when they announced Commander 2018 themes is now back in construction lol

Boxed card game simulating MOBAs like League of Legends/DotA. Went up this morning. Decent group of folks working on this one. They've been at a lot of conventions the last 2-3 years doing open playtesting and demoing the game (which is where I encountered it, at GenCon). They waited to have...

Probably just doesn't want to come off as slobbering over everything Nintendo does, thus the Reggie joke at the end :)

On the plus side, minor interesting tension with the minions who give you another shot of your hero power for the turn, since you have to balance tempo plays vs getting your maximum value out of them. Probably not good, but neat. Boom VS Boom is going to make for some fun youtube videos at least.

Well, it's just like MMOs. Casuals pay the subs. Timmy buys the booster packs at MSRP. So they get the voice the company listens to, even if it's yelling uninformed opinions about shit that doesn't actually effect them.

Well, they keep trying to remake Genesis Wave, this one seems pretty busto. https://i.redd.it/q7ebmam0jmb11.png

But if I use my cooldowns then I won't have them for when I need them

Leveling with the three overlapping Fan of Knives boosters is silly.

They already have the technology to disable/enable item effects in different levels of content, they should just let you have your legendary effects in any pre-BFA content.

Grixis Midrange decks on SCG stream this weekend looked pretty fun. Flipping Bolas to get back Liliana to get back another Bolas is a nice value train.

My only question is whether Ryan Dancey is involved or not.

Need another raid where you can murder all your friends with Path of Frost.

Hex doesn't either. At least not one they're willing to develop at anything other than a glacial pace.

This is the project that taught me to never back anything but boardgames on crowdfunding. I already had MTGO. I didn't need a second MTGO. Implement the fucking shit that was actually interesting and new, and maybe I would have given you more money. But no, just more sets for playing MTGO-Lite.

Demo warlock is really fun. I like the ramping feedback loop they built into it. Once a fight's been going on for a little while you're barely pressing your Shadowbolt anymore, because the demons keep generating more shards to summon more demons.

This is all just elaborate set up for their excuse when the last raid tier of BFA lasts 22 months. "What, you guys saw what happened when we rushed an expansion. You wouldn't want another BFA would you?"

Hazezon's super fun Strossus. It's the "Come at me, bro" of Commanders. You pretty much have to set up, and then tell the table "You've got one turn" by casting Hazezon and creating his delayed trigger. Creates some fun tense games. Definitely hurts his win rate tho :D It's also fun to have...

They did increase the price of precons by ~$5, which translates to +$10-15 to the total price of the reprints they slot in there. So there's an outside chance of a middling-costly card that really works for the deck theme sneaking in there, like Scroll Rack for the BUW deck. But yeah, my...

Eclipse 2E Kickstarter seems kinda shitty if you aren't somebody with a hard-on for minis. Locking my rules updates/balance tweaks behind $150 in extra plastic is kinda shitty. No early bird specials, stretch goals are all either reselling us things we already have, or "an extra discovery tile...

Commander 2018 Deck themes/colors announced on Twitch Stream: Blue-Red Artifacts Matter Blue-Green-White Enchantments Matter Black-Red-Green Lands Matter Black-Blue-White MIracles/"Top of Deck Matters" Can we get Angus Mackenzie to $500? YES WE CAN

It was amusing when different armors looked completely different depending on the race wearing it. Like that armor that dropped from the fucking Ice Orcs in Velious. Looked like normal chain mail on most races. Slap it on a Female Dark elf and it was slutty chainmail negligee. They knew who...

Finally got actual release news for the WotC Transformers CCG, release pushed to late September, or early release at SDCC/GenCon. Apparently someone at Hasbro has a big hard-on for functional promos, as this game's getting them too, like Magic's new Buy-a-Box Promos, despite the shit being...

But I've been on the internet since the 90s, at this point I receive near-sexual gratification from being pissed off.

Them allied races yo. Gotta get those sparkly shadowy butterfly wings for your badass warrior.

Obviously Rogue needs to get a theme of recasting "burnt" cards to go with that.

Will be interesting to see how they keep Omega Neutrals from just being "extra druid card slots" in the expansion. Probably by making them shit.

Pretty sure that Legendary Spell has been on half of Kripp's "user created cards" montages.

The only good collection is white-item tomes/journals/missives that you're given for quests that don't get deleted when you complete the quest.

Bearer of the Mackenzy Hammer is the original RNGesus Take The Wheel card.

Yeah, Wizards has a new branch of devs working on making new CCGs again (some folks reshuffled, others new hires), now that Hasbro's apparently unlocked their IP vault for WotC to fiddle with. Might have contributed to the decision to fuck over netrunner. And weeaboo-fighting-CCGs are still...

Or Transformers CCG killing magic off yo! 22 days till its August release date and we've seen hide nor hair of that product since its announcement last winter. Methinks they brought it to playtest and realized they fucked something up hard.

The reddit threads where E-Lawyers argue about the reserved list are the best. WOTC/Hasbro's lawyers have been teabagging this entire genre for decades; if they think it's not worth breaking reserved list, and pushed for more guideline clarity last time it was updated, I'm inclined to believe...

I mean, if that were true it'd just be a random grab bag of who's doing well each week, rather than players consistently performing at different levels. Case in point, it's pre-release weekend, plenty of good players with rare-less decks beating out the derps rocking the lucky pools.

There's gonna be so many genders.

Goreclaw is a fucking bear. The tempo advantage if you untap with her is unreal (if you can capitalize, of course). Dryad Greenseeker feels a lot more "Courser of Kruphix" than a random 2 drop uncommon has a right to. Haven't even come close to dropping any game I got her out in so far...
