I think the Maze is a good way to do two things: get some power, and get rid of troublemakers. I bet Feather and other "trouble makers" will be used to go through the maze. Either a guild gets what is within, or they get rid of political enemies within their own guild. Intriguing, yes?
Feather is no longer considered part of the boros's legion
i think that the problem with Squirrels are that a single Squirrel is a 1/1 token. when a Squirrel Mob should be a 1/1 and a realy huge Squirrel Mob should be a Squirrel Mob
1) Dark Ritual is not on the reserved list so they can reprint it.
2) Cards like Infernal Plunge and Seething Song can be played first turn in Modern, and there's no reason they can't have a similar Black Spell. Black and Red constantly have similar functions, being allied colors.
3) It's the 20th Anniversary, there's no telling what they have planned for the Core Set, they could go nuts just as easily as keeping it low key.
and Seething Song is Banned in modern
if insane fast mana effects wasnt soo good then Black Lotus could see a identical reprint
Thanks for your comments, I see now it wasn't nearly as clear as I though it was. So, 'scheme' is used, mmm... I'll try 'connive', but I do like 'scheme' a lot more, so I may go back to it. It's only Archenemy after all.
This time I'm gonna try it with Level up's nomenclature:
Trickster's Seal :1mana::symr:
Enchantment
Connive (when this enters the battlefield, draw a card, then exile a card face down from your hand. Turn if face up anytime to level up, then level up again if it's a land card.)
[Lvl 1] :1mana::symr:, Sacrifice Trickster's Seal: Trickster's Seal deals 4 damage to target creature.
[Lvl 2] :1mana::symr:, Sacrifice Trickster's Seal: Trickster's Seal deals 4 damage to target player.
What do you think of this version?
ohh
just make the exiled card Attached to the enchantment , make it similar to imprint
This would be a terrible idea. Counterspell is a broken card that was essentially a mistake. It would really piss of new players who cast a fattie for 10 mana and say "wait, my creature dies before it even hit the board because that guy only tapped two lands?" Liliana of the Veil should probably get reprinted though, because she needs to go down in value.
Why?
if she get a new print she will not go down in price( not soo much), and come on after Innistrad rotation she will drop to $ 27 -28 and even with a new print she will remain her value just cause she is played in a lot of other formats
i always thought that Stigma Lasher was part of the cycle of awesome CMC 2 creatures thats show up 1 block yes 1 block no
for reference
in Ravnica block we got : Dark Confidant at Ravnica: City of Guilds
1 block(Ice Age with Coldsnap) after. we got in Time Spiral's Block Tarmogoyf (Future Sight)
after Lorwyn in Shadowmoor' block we got Stigma Lasher in Eventide
after Shards of Alara block. in Zendikar' block we got Stoneforge Mystic (Worldwake)
Scars of Mirrodin' Block then Innistrad block : Snapcaster Mage
I don't like a +1 that can't be activated at all under reasonably common conditions (no creatures on the battlefield). And once larger creatures start showing up, this becomes mostly useless. Chandra, the Firebrand's +1 can at least ping a player when there's no 1-toughness creatures on the board.
A repeatable Innocent Blood for two mana is awfully strong, especially if you can play this on turn two and keep your opponent from ever having a creature to attack Tibalt with using this ability and other removal cards (or at least keep them off their feet for quite a while). Even if between this and his +1 you can just destroy two creatures before Tibalt is destroyed, you've gotten an incredible amount of value for just :symb::symr:.
The ultimate does too many things. Everybody discards, AND you get some Devils (why 2/3?), AND Tibalt deals some damage. I'd rather this do one thing very well, or two things that are logically linked. Three is just cluttered.
I made the +1 not to be used all the times :p, but maked it( i think flavorfull) to be like : Tibalt likes you when you give a target for hin .
Imagine if you can make hin on turn2 then you start killing weak X/1 and doing Innocent Blood to the strongests or even doing 1 Damage to your opponent or his or her planeswalker .
i don't want another JTMS ( i want for Legacy but not for Modern )
Edit : You know that the +1 can target your own creatures and his ultimate is at -9 >> like 6 turns with like you said a +1 Ability that can some times not be used
Okay, so I've been tossing around ideas for a casual deck featuring this bad boy, and right now I've got a GWU deck set up with the Simic, Azorious, and Selesnya gates in the deck. I'm running four of each for a total of 12, do you think that's plenty? I think I'll try and play it like ramp / turbo fog mixed. We don't have a lot of cards that can just tutor "lands" in standard though. Any suggestions or ideas anyone would like to offer up?
This is what I have so far:
4 Druid's Deliverence
4 Aetherize
4 Gatecreeper Vine
4 Simic Guildgate
4 Selesnya Guildgate
4 Azorius Guildgate
2 Mythic Land
4 Forest
3 Island
3 Plains
for the wincon of the mythic land you need 10 gate cards with diferent names
Tibalt the Painbringer BR
+1: Tibalt the Painbringer deals 1 damage to target creature.
-2: Each player sacrifices a creature.
-9: Each player discard his or her hand. Put a 2/3 red Devil creature token for each card discarded this turn. Tibalt the Painbringer deals damage to each opponent equal to the number of cards discarded this way(turn).
SL:3
Okay then, please tell me one good playable standard deck (or even modern) where Tibalt plays a huge role! If you haven't noticed, none of the pros now think he's any good and haven't bothered testing it in any deck. Even Zac Hill, the guy who was involved in this card's creations, hasn't said a thing about Tibalt in his SCG articles!
And if you haven't noticed, red has gotten crap as far as planeswalkers go while other colors have gotten planeswalkers that see play in multiple formats. Would it have hurt them to maybe test out their terrible planeswalker in another color?!
they fear that a planeswalker with CMC 2 become the new JTMS soo they maked tibalt look bad
I was reading the description so the fifteenth card is going to always be a non basic land. Which is either going to be a guild gate, shock land, or the mythic land.
So just to be perfectly clear. I open a pack of DM and I go through it and get my rare or mythic rare and then there is the land that might be a shock land or the mythic land.
So just like Innistrad and Dark Ascension. There is a chance that get 2 rares par pack, 1 rare and 1 mythic, or two mythics?
you could open a foil mythic a normal mythic and the mythic land
yes we can open a guildgate/shockland/mythic land plus the normal rare or mythic and also a chance to get a foil
Feather is no longer considered part of the boros's legion
yeah but they don't see a lot of modern play(except for primeval), also they dont droped alot just $4 - $7 and the CMC is 6 ( a lot)

this will be in almost all games a 1/2 or 2/3.
if your set has cards like Flame Jab, Waves of Aggression or Countryside Crusher this can be good but i don't know
could be better at non basics but we already have Detritivore
and we already have Terravore that is better then this
you could maybe do a better version of Wilderness Elemental or just add first strike or haste to it
