You're looking at what happens when Lin Sivvi gets drunk with a Lhurgoyf in a Birthing Pod. -

Lectrys posted a message on [MH1] Modern Horizons Discussion ThreadI think I found a deck for Echo of Eons: Jeskai Ascendancy Combo. Discarding Echo of Eons mid-combo is a walk in the park there, even discarding it pre-combo isn't completely unrealistic there, and it could definitely use the CA. The flashback cost being 3 mana may bite, but it's a lot more reachable than 4 mana in that land-light deck. Yes, I have been able to pay the flashback cost mid-combo. (Ascendancy Combo is also a cute home for Eladamri's Call, tutoring for regular mana dorks/Fatestitcher/post-board bullets and being turntable with Glittering Wish, although it's possible that more efficient cards are better.)Posted in: Modern
In the meantime, I suppose a cool thing about Hall of Heliod's Generosity is that, with it, you can stick a bunch of silly 1-ofs in your Life from the Loam deck that you can't always support but that can come in handy. I'm thinking stuff along the lines of singleton Astral Drift with some cycling lands, although Cast Out is also solid.
(In Legacy, I think Hall of Heliod's Generosity will become a staple in Lands, but only because they can dig for Exploration by spamming LftL.) -

ChrisBP7 posted a message on Ravnica Allegiance (RNA) and War of the Spark (WAR) General DiscussionPosted in: Magic StorylineQuote from Colt47 »I think there are a few notable problems with War of the Sparks story and honestly, most of them are the kind of mess ups I'd expect from someone making a saturday morning cartoon show to promote a toy line.
1) It's not made clear why Bolas picked now to do an invasion. Lazotep plated zombies probably have a life span, but at the same time if his minions have not perfected the embalming process after doing it on multiple generations of people I'd be at a loss for words. Also, I'm not even going to start with how many different engineering improvements my Ravnica DnD playgroup already thought up on how to build better eternals.
2) Bolas not foreseeing Liliana's betrayal a mile away when he was able to manipulate Kefnet and entire civilizations. That's just them not wanting to kill their cash cow.
3) Supposedly the Eternals and the Statue don't matter, yet they are strategic pieces in the game to reclaim his pre-mending powers. How he can't fathom that losing the statue would bolster the morale of the opposing force and that more morale = bad for me is a little bit much.
I think the teams handling of Ravnica uniting is pretty interesting to see, though.
One problem I have with these type of comments is that while thinking about stuff like this can be fun, people often just use the Doylean interpretation (i.e. this inconsistency is there because the author screwed up) instead of trying to find a Watsonian interpretation (i.e. trying to find an in-universe reason). Stories aren't perfect. Even the best authors can't keep everything consistent, that's what suspension of disbelief is for after all. So let me try to find an in-universe reason for these three problems:
1) That's easy, because he simply doesn't want to wait any longer. He personally believes that the time is right, that's why he initiated the Hour of Devastation on Amonkhet. He feels like he has waited long enough for the return of his godly powers and with Vraskas' acquisition of the Immortal Sun he has everything he needs for his plan, so why should he wait any longer? Obviously his plan is not subjugating Ravnica totally (well, not before he becomes a god obviously, after which it should be a trivial task in his mind), the Eternals are there to harvest planeswalker sparks for the Elder Spell and keeping the locals busy while he finishes his plan. People seem to forget that he wiped out all adults of Amonkhet in an instant when he had his oldwalker powers, so it's very likely he will pull something like this again once he gets them back. Even a smaller scale spell would probably be enough to conquer Ravnica and after that everything else.
He is also not an engineer, and the dreadhorde is not his ultimate weapon, but a tool. In fact they seem to have to self-destruct while channeling planeswalker sparks, making them more durable wouldn't help much.
2) Well, that's also not that hard to explain: Once again it's his massive ego and lack of true empathy that causes this. He believes to know Lilliana and that while she would obviously betray him the instance she thinks she can get away with it, she wouldn't risk her life for anything else. He thinks she would never put her life on the line (not unreasonably so, up until very recently Lilliana was always only interested in herself and often stated that she doesn't understand how someone could be stupid enough to sacrifice themselves for others, that's why she followed his commands in the first place instead of taking a stand right then and there).
In short: He thinks that Lilliana is as egocentric as he is, when in fact that's not entirely the case anymore (which is a characteristic of many sociopaths in the real world).
3) Again, Bolas is a sociopath and a narcissist. The statue isn't really that important, since he only build it as another way to glorify himself (which he did in Amonkhet as well, with all the horn-motives). He doesn't really think about it apart from that or really about bolstering morale. His origin story showed that he sees others only as pawns to control as he pleases, and doesn't put much thought into morale or something like that. And the eternals are only important for as long as they are harvesting sparks for him and disrupt anyone from stopping him prematurely. Other than that they are completely disposable. -

Teia Rabishu posted a message on [[Official]] Legacy Ban List Discussion Thread (Read OP before Posting)This is some real reactionary, Modern-tier banning philosophy right here.Posted in: Legacy (Type 1.5)
It's also why I hate the idea of "sacred cow" cards like Brainstorm that should be banned by literally every metric other than "players like it too much to ban it" existing alongside cards that, it seems, inevitably get banned simply to shake up the format.
Oh and dumb crap like Mind Twist is still on the list. What a gong show. -

Winds of Rebuke is a non-land bounce spell that advances Mill's gameplan. I'd consider at least 1-2 in the board if you're a Mill player.

No creatures in play and no cards in hand is the time when I want to draw more cards. This card doesn't help me when I am behind.

The great Frank Karsten is trying very hard to make it usable. We even got him to invoked the the **actual** lowest-rated land card in the entire Magic Gatherer (as at the date of this post)*, That Which Must Not Be Named, though most players are too young to know.
IMHO this alone makes everything worth it (LOL).

Why is "Jund going good" good news overall? Or is it just your personal opinion as a Jund fan?

Actually, it's got Dark Ritual written all over it. Ritual this out, search for three more. I wonder if legacy storm can use this.
