Finally some eldraine spoilers. The catds are good, I like most artworks and the frame seems ok. Good start to spoiler season
I actually like that they tone down on Planeswalkers. Once there were five, one in every color, then they printed one million and I don’t even know most anymore. Also they printed like 20 different versions of some, so if I say I play Ajani, you have no idea what card I am playing because there are 25 with similar effects.
Also I like this Planeswalkers, really love the synergy it has. Only thing I dislike is the combination of tokens and counters.
Ok can we please just skip everything and directly return to llorwyn and tarkir?
Oh wait but it will be like this: Karen’s of Tarkir: top down set playing inside a fast food restaurant about a fist fight there because of a cancelled marriage. Coming with McDonald’s universe Beyond featuring a worldwide one exclusive copy printed of Ronald McDonald in a special MrPringle Holoynovaspectral foil treatment.
Llorwyn: Dieselpunk Typals. 2000 years have passed and humans have since invaded llorwyn and there is a war and many Planeswalkers form an alliance to win the war on the same introduced set. Also the phyrexians invade but somehow lose very quickly. Elves are not racist anymore but somehow extremely inclusive, so that nobody feels uncomfortable anymore playing with them. Also faeries use Diesel engines now to fly. All in one Set. There will be two aftermath sets with each 5 new cards, showing random Dieselpunk stuff, in 3 card boosters for 20€ each, with a chance of a Toyota UB treatment card.
Finally some spoilers. I could have use for Stroke of midnight for Commander. The rest seems pretty good, but nothing super special yet. Lord skitters blessing seems really good, and food fight could make for a funny deck. Return of adventures was expected and is good. I am actually looking forward for this set. I just hope they don’t meme too hard with gingerbreads and stuff, so that the set does not become a parody.
Hm I don’t know what to think about this. A lot of text on a cheap colourless card. I am glad this has no “only one time a turn” restriction, so this could grow big in the right deck.
I dislike the Planeswalker buff very much, it is so random. Only good thing about it is the haste ability, so you can play this sort of an answer to a just played Planeswalkers.
I am rn not seeing a deck where this could see play. Neither in casual or modern, even in commander. I am playing some Golgari sacrifice artifacts Deck with [[ravenous squirrel]], [[cauldron familiar]] combi and stuff, but even there, this would only seem playable if the enemy has a Planeswalker.
Ingenium prodigy seems strong. Would love this to try out in modern human deck. Bit even in commander or a casual setting there is a lot do do with it. Can play this in co troll decks, midrange decks, and works well with proliferate and anything counter related. It shrinks as you draw from it, giving you a nice drawback and interesting play patterns especially with skulk, which gets better the smaller the creature gets.
Virtue of loyalty seems like a card that will see play in a lot of eh decks.
Virtue of knowledge also seems strong, I will probably get one for my Blink EDH deck. Additional [[Parhelion]] effects are always welcome.
Stop it my Ragavans can only take so much 🧐
Probably not fitting in a hollow one deck but maybe…
