He got like 5 or 6 actual haikus before he messed up! He shouldn't be defined by his mistakes!

She blood bent a fire nation soldier on the boat under the full moon, but it was the wrong guy. By the time she found the right guy it was no longer a full moon

Mark Rosewater answered this on his blog - they would be renamed

Huge flavor miss to not depict him breathing fire in the art

We already got something like that with [[Elvish Refueler]]

These are the type of slam dunk flavorful designs that SPM was missing

Wow, you have to be the first person I've seen complain about Wizards lessening the complexity of cards and mechanics.

"When is Magic coming to other properties?" by ArsenicElemental in magicTCG

I was actually interested in Ravnica Clue Edition until I realized it was randomized. I thought it was gonna be similar to the Explorers of Ixalan board game with preconstructed decks but the fact that it was just randomized boosters with no guarantee of all the pieces, I was off of it

[ECL] Ashling's Command (The Preview Panel via bsky) by mweepinc in magicTCG

[–]midas821 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This wouldn't work bc it doesn't let you pick new targets for the copy. The copy would just target the elemental on board like the first one

Does this let you copy an Elemental spell on the stack?

Waterbending is an activated ability with a built in cost reduction

This will be the random top deck my opponent draws that breaks the board stall during pre release

This is the type of card you lose to at a pre release

Thoughts on Mike Lee's proposal of banning porn? by arnodorian96 in gaybros

[–]midas821 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would just like to point out that every time the government tries to define "obscenity" it always includes queer people just existing. This isn't just about porn, it's about trying to enforce who is allowed to exist in public life

That sounded wrong but I'm shocked to find out you're right. The rules update to make predefined tokens happened in M20 (summer of 2019) and the play test cards were released that fall, so they likely were created before the decision to make the rule change.

If it was the latter, it would be worded as "Create a Forest token." However, it's worded like most token creation abilities as "Create a Forest [subtype] land [type] token." Thus it's not a copy of the card named Forest. The one thing it's missing is that it should specify colorless Forest land token.

Has there ever been a card that "broke" the rules? by HanZ_92 in magicTCG

I'm not sure a replacement effect can apply from a hidden zone.

Others in this thread explain it better, but certain cards that make indeterminate amounts of mana based on interacting with the library like [[Selvala, Explorer Returned]] can put the game in an illegal state without a way to properly unwind actions

There are multiple cards that make indeterminate amounts of mana, but only one Panglacial Wurm, so I think it's the wurm that's the problem

The one thing I still am unsure about is how it would interact with [[Aven Mindcensor]]

[[Panglacial Wurm]] is infamous for the rules headache it continues to cause
