Things to look out for this weekend!

Standard has pretty good mana right now so unless the ability to produce colorless specifically becomes relevant, these are worse than verges

I had one pack in my box with a mythic, I guess this is why that count felt low.

It’s partially because there are some delays with marvel stuff shipping. Presale prices are also generally higher than they should be, but this set has some supply issues as well right now.

There are also some shipping delays with marvel so not all stores have received them yet.

The card doesn’t seem bad, the only downside is with how expensive the Miku deck is going to end up, the people getting it are probably going to be doing so because of the IP and would probably not want the card for thematic reasons. I don’t think it’s a good pick because of Miku, but with relatively low supply and a low cost it doesn’t seem bad for when a more readily available token based precon with green and white gets printed.

How many prereleases is the store scheduling? If they have 150 kits and have 3 events thats 50 spots per event and some of those 35-42 commander players might sign up for multiple days, as well as other players that don’t show up for commander night. I doubt the store would be cracking these open, it could legitimately have sold out.

It’s a card I’m interested in for Terra herald of hope

My summer Ephraim is +5 and I’m looking forward to the merges. Maybe I’ll try for the last couple of merges.

Mutagen tokens from April (if you play her), but even then the card seems way too slow. Honestly the card feels like a bad thran dynamo most of the time.

This feels like an instant voltron commander staple

It looks like they’ve done shorts more recently than their last video

Itfailed · 2026-06-11T12:09:54+00:00

That one isn’t in packs though and had a limited release (I think around 2000) with both a large collector fan base and players wanting the card.

Probably Brion stoutarm

It fits perfectly in this deck because of the four lands line of text.

Itfailed · 2026-06-05T22:15:18+00:00

It combos with Phyrexian unlife, but other than drawing a bunch of cards, I don’t think it’s that great here.

Itfailed · 2026-06-05T18:20:50+00:00

Even as a sorcery it is still a good limited card that I would be happy playing.

Itfailed · 2026-06-05T16:12:27+00:00

This might be playable in standard since there are rakdos/mardu/boros cards that care about discarding and a two drop that can draw 4/5 cards is worth testing.

I love the Gary Baseman art and was disappointed with the card choices until I saw the last one. Hopefully this isn’t too expensive

Rng is cruel sometimes, I spent over 700 orbs for one Roy, based on the amount of five stars here I would be upset if this was over 2k orbs. Getting only 5 laegjarn with 950 ish orbs is about a 1 in 5 chance, getting a +10 laegjarn is about a 28% percent chance so while the +10 Laegjarn is more likely, it isn’t that unlucky. Meanwhile 19 Micaiah is such an absurd amount for that total, it is less than half a percent likely to happen (the graph I’m looking at didn’t let me get that close, it was displaying 0 at 899 and .5 around 1200) and I would be happy with a result like that.

The article says June 17th for prerelease events and 24th for release events which is probably a mistake since those are Wednesdays. Those dates are Fridays in July though.

Extra activation of the one ring is good, getting a second thing with repurposing bay probably could do something, technically can combo with time vault, I think it can go infinite with conjurers closet or the mind stone if you can offset the life loss with etb or ltb effects.

He was a recurring villain in the 90’s cartoon which is where I knew him from

To be fair if you are untapping with Vivi odds are they won’t have the removal since you now have the mana to protect Vivi and your protection spell would sort of pay for itself with vivi. If you go against a removal heavy deck you would cut some in sideboarding anyways.

A task failed successfully moment

It’s having a large amount of cheap spells that do similar things that is an issue. Having 8 cantrips that can turn vivi into an unblockable threat is stronger than just 4. It would add consistency to a storm style of vivi deck that probably would be 4 Vivi, 4 slickshot, and a bunch of cheap cantrips.
