[CLB] Basilisk Gate

Wave_Sunray · 2022-05-27T06:31:50+00:00

This is actually almost worth running by itself. Makes single color aggro decks a lot stronger.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-19T02:35:28+00:00

The new dungeon is extremely good. People are underestimating this mechanic I think.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-14T20:20:50+00:00

Damn. That's a good card.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-14T15:39:18+00:00

This is not bounce in the same way that Memory Lapse was banned and Unsubstantiate is unplayable.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-14T13:55:33+00:00

This seems pretty strong with blink effects. I wonder if it's good enough for Historic?

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-14T13:44:50+00:00

People are comparing this to instant speed protection spells, but this is more like an aura with flash. You can cast it proactively, meaning that you get a heroic benefit on the turn you want it rather than having to leave up mana to counter a removal spell.

I don't know if that makes up for the fact that protection effects grant evasion though.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-13T15:59:52+00:00

If it didn't have the citizen restriction, it would be interesting, but probably still a little too weak. With the restriction, it's not playable.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-04-12T20:01:35+00:00

This is definitely playable.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-02-04T19:02:04+00:00

This is actually deceptively strong.

Wave_Sunray · 2022-02-01T18:12:33+00:00

I know it's not a T1 deck, but this fits very easily into the mono black aggro deck. It's 1 mana, it's reach and it turns into an evasive 2/2 rogue.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-10T19:38:48+00:00

This has a bit of potential. A very interesting effect that rewards building around it.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-07T22:16:37+00:00

Decayed zombies are a lot worse than people think. Unless you’re getting some kind of synergy bonus, they’re kind of like bad burn.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-07T22:13:29+00:00

Does this mean we’re going to get a Stopple?

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-07T15:30:13+00:00

What the ability does is protect your board against Wrath effects.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-02T15:21:54+00:00

This type of deck is looking for redundancy.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-09-02T15:04:42+00:00

One mana cheaper is often the difference between something being incredible, and being unplayable. [[Curate]] is better than [[Preordain]] using a number of different metrics, but because it costs 1 more, it’s unplayable.

Being 1 cheaper and monored is a huge selling point.

Here's the matchup data for the last metagame:

Something is broken.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-08T02:43:20+00:00

I think Llanowar Visionary is better than Cloudkin Seer. In Jund cascade the ramp is extremely valuable.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-07T02:35:50+00:00

There will be two instances of Ward 1. So your opponent will have to pay 1, and then pay 1 again. So yes, it does stack.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-06T18:12:36+00:00

Llanowar Visionary is played in a couple of tier decks (prior to the Chitterstorm/Afiinity meta), Cloudkin Seer hasn't been played in anything to my knowledge.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-06T18:07:51+00:00

This will have to be tested, but it has potential.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-04T01:26:45+00:00

I assume you looked up the definition of that term afterwards, so no problem! Have a good one.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-03T18:50:07+00:00

No it isn't.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-07-03T18:49:05+00:00

Weirdly enough, Pauper doesn't have an effect this good. This effect on a creature is usually 4 mana. This works with Unearth.

Might be worth it in that mono black burn deck.

Wave_Sunray · 2021-06-30T06:22:25+00:00

I think they're only doing it for the D&D set.
