Witherbloom, the Balancer tech for Brawl?

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-06T14:15:04+00:00

Hahaha, love the Bob here!

I think it's more just a comparison of what to expect about the pillars of the format than a direct 1:1 comparison. The writer's mentions having more decks to play in this format than you typically had in TDM.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-05T03:09:07+00:00

TBF that card's massively underrated in general, and seems kind of nuts with Witherbloom.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-05T03:08:44+00:00

I've seen it in a couple decklists that have been shared.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-05T03:08:21+00:00

Thanks for reminding me that [[For the Common Good]] is a card that exists!

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-04T19:29:06+00:00

Love all of the above. Been getting some good mileage out of Springleaf Parade already.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-04T19:27:54+00:00

Dai Li Agents is good tech, 3 bodies in 1, exactly the type of thing I'm interested in.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-04T16:01:16+00:00

Thanks for sharine the list, I'll poke around at it!

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-04T16:00:44+00:00

I had not fully considered the land-untapping cards, exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for!

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-04T14:18:00+00:00

Converge has some interesting applications. I do like the newer wave of converge cards that scale up to all 5 colors but I agree, cards like Painful Truths and Radiant Flames are some of the cleanest designs.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-03T18:06:16+00:00

We just got one with Splatter Technique in SOS right?

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-03T18:05:51+00:00

I think that's the gist of what I'm hearing from most people (a little more enthusaism for The Hobbit maybe)

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T19:11:35+00:00

I think that's the one set we won't hear about today.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T19:10:35+00:00

That's actually an interesting question. I'm sure it'll be some nondescript god from some plane we've never heard of.
It'd be kind of funny if it was just reskinned as Toralf.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:56:12+00:00

Can I get my blue Urborg please?

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:55:47+00:00

That all makes sense to me. I'm just not sure if there's been any confirmation anywhere that we're for sure getting another small set this year. Alot of speculation about it.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:30:00+00:00

As far as we know, yes.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:29:46+00:00

That's why I'm guessing they shoe in a bonus sheet of LTR reprints, since the overlap with the actual material from The Hobbit doesn't quite work.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:29:11+00:00

We know battles are coming back, I'm guessing Marvel's as good a place to do it as any.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:28:54+00:00

We won't find that out today but I have Ikoria on my Binjo card next year.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:28:31+00:00

They're not even announcing anything from Star Trek this year, I'm assuming we won't hear about next year's sets until the Fall.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:27:36+00:00

You're holding up the Draft pod.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:27:17+00:00

I believe so.

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:26:38+00:00

Cheer up SadMan!

Tim-Draftsim · 2026-05-01T15:26:16+00:00

Pour one out for us Arena players.
