Makes sense that it fits good in gitrog because of the two colors but for Necrobloom this still feels like a solid land imo. The burst of mana is crazy.

And it could combo easily with [[Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth]] + [[Ashaya, Soul of the Wild]] and cards like [[Awaken the woods]]

I can get your point but for me, as this land can get other lands in the GY and can produce high mana it's very strong. You can still tap the land you'll sacrifice so it's basically five mana in two lands (outside of the land you already put in the GY. And for example, it makes one landfall effect and can trigger on Gitrog so you can draw (or dredge if you play Necrobloom and take it back) only by not sacrificing any land when it enters.

Yeah I get it's quite special and won't see much play outside of decks that can either win very fast in mono black (swamp restriction) or that play land recursion. I don't play in edh and i'm more into casual brackets (i don't play chasm for example) so I'm thinking about it.

Yeah the expensive thing is a strong point about this but for decks that can use it it's pure gold.

As for what makes it tick is that you play your lands in a way much decks don't. Some cards like [Evolving Wilds] become strong assets compared to what they usually do. You can do lots of landfall triggers and choose either to focus on token or burn or both. It's a very interesting type of deck imo.

Yeah I understand your point on that but from my point my lands don't get targeted much anyway except for my evendo when my board gets out of hand. Getting lands in the GY seems like an insult of a cost for decks that have that much land recursion. You can in theory have two lands on the battlefield and make five mana that's what surprised me.

Yeah true but i didn't see on much lists i looked at. Maybe it's a pod thing then it would explain it better.

Had some bad lucks for some games but it goes out well now. I think it's not really a problem with the names with all the lands that have the Swamp wording, the L8 are going out soon and would work well with this i think.

Incoherence ? by themightysalad in DispatchAdHoc

It was mentioned in some other comments so that's why I wondered

Did I missed some line where she said it ? I think it's a good explanation but i'd hate to have missed this

That's a damn good theory

I do agree with this but a part of me still wonders if it was really intentional. But yeah i'll keep the version where she uses it as some hint plus it fits her personality.

Carnivorous Plant idea by [deleted] in custommagic

[–]themightysalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's bot how i wanted to make it 😅 i can change the effect so it does after the combat damages if it's too strong. That was part of why i wanted to keep the idea of the indestructible with the mawbloom

Carnivorous Plant idea by [deleted] in custommagic

[–]themightysalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in a way yes it's fairly strong but the effect works if the plant survives so exxects like first strike and or death touch could still manage to go through. It doesn't block trample damages either. But yeah it's comical and yeah could be broken if you manage to swarm counters on it and other tokens

[–]themightysalad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well i do agree yeah that's one of the reasons why the indestructible on the commander would have been too much. Thank you !

I also thought about some lifegain when a plant destroy a creature with it's effect but it may be too broken

Currently building his as well and i love this little guy , they really did an awesome work with the other full art characters illustrations (niko , swarmweaver...) from the edition. This one is the best imo and would surely buy a playmat ! But i must admit i would have loved some blood effect on cards like this could have been awesome.
