I can't believe they actually did it.
(Ignore the equip cost, they'll never let us have Vulshok Morningstar back in Limited.)

Except command is instant plus has other options when the situation calls for them. Yes bad.
You'll also notice that this is a common and Prismari Command is ... [Checks notes]... a rare. It's almost as though they don't want commons to be as strong in limited as the rares. -

Note that this card says "up to one" on the Raise Dead part, so if your graveyard is empty, you could just pay 2 mana to venture into the dungeon.

There will be many, many ways to venture into the dungeon. Even the set's obligatory mana rock is helping out.

LordGrimpow posted a message on [AFR] Feign Death— The HermitDruid previewIt's slightly better than Undying, since it doesn't require that the target doesn't already have a +1/+1 counter.Posted in: The Rumor Mill -

Now the planeswalkers options: all humans, one is a Hacker/Na'vi , The other is a Ninja with Jedi powers, and the other is a samurai/ronin mess. All males and humans.
Wizards, plz, you could have done a Snake/Naga, Fox, Spirit-like, Goblin(turtle), Rat(Nezumi) walker and you choose a boring human again, nice (at least we will have bunny woman walker, i guess)

People could belive if you said that Negan, Daryl, and Michone were in sideboard in most of the games the deck had at least 2 Ricks are you saying the guy played most of the games with a 10 or 8 sideboard...
Rick is probably legacy playable in the next weeks we will know for true.

1: It is ok for real life and literature references on cards "a monster created out of corpses" or literature quotes. Innistrad is full of references. Literature quotes is in the same level of pun quotes: it doesn't add to the flavor of the cards but at least gives some related flavor even if it isn't relevant. "monkey wants banana..". But all in all it is all canon to the universe of the game (not the real life literature quotes, those are kinda of a page note on a book). People complaining about immersion has the right to it because until now all magic collections that are legal in tournament play had a in gameuniverse canon or something that could happen. In Ikoria they did a off brand but they didn't made Godzilla verse a real thing in mtg as all the godzillas were cosmetics for other cards (even if the "real" card did not existed) and that is ok. I think the main issue with twd is that flatout no alternative name, they just exist now as well with firearms, nukes and non fantasy stuff (not a big thing for me but for some it is, remember that there is almost no firearms in mtg, and the ones that exist has some magical or exotic modifications).
2 Mechanical unique cards that will be released and sold during a single day in a sistem that had its issues in the past and said cards can probably never be released ever again, this is almost reserved list status to new products being released (soo if you don't like the reserved list why would you like this?). They are selling this in almost a ultimatum status "buy it now because you wont get another chance" and no you don't have 2 weeks to test and decide if the cards are good or if you like them soo much as to build new decks, no, you have 7 days from anouncement and by the time the last card is spoiled you will have 1 day to think if you want to buy it or not... At least with duals and reserverd list card you have the luxury, and probably all the copies in the market to think if you really want them.. Lets hope all the investors buying this secret lair makes wotc print them more than they have printed the dual lands.

*Lets be real, WotC didn't made them in the likes of Zilortha, Strength Incarnate because it probably would drive buyers and players away from this secret lair just by the fact those cards could be previews for Kaldheim and soo players would not buy into the future scarcity that this secret lair has becomed...
That is a joke honestly shame on me for defending secret lair when it came out WotC is in such a greed culture that they feel the need to extract every single peny from player's wallets. I hope that at least one card is good enough to see play in legacy and commander i want to see wotc burn with all those einsteins that think printin those, only banning uro, printing overpowered cards without good answears is a good idea.

People forget about Preator's Counsel after 10 turns, yeah..
Monstrosity do have counters to represent this, and when something gives counters to a creature with Monstrosity ppl have to remember that it is not monstruous yet, in its time it caused alot of discussion and if i remember right one of the designers comemted about it and +1+1 counters (maybe around Rav Allegiances but can be wrong on that one)
Found:
Exert had its own token in boosters and to this day ppl still use counters to remember.
I mean, proplayers use dice to remember of upkeep and start of turn effects (they place the dice above their deck soo they don't draw and say die from a pact..)
Sagas happen after the draw step and do get counters to represent their stage (and can be manipulated by removing counters) (with the layout of the card one could make the argument that sagas should not have counters and ppl should just remember the last chapter that happened...)

They probably had the Idea, name, all the sketch arts, etc done before the cancelation...
Harry Potter just got a "push" in the last 1-2 years they saw that and made the set.
-----
Also, have anyone played the Harry Potter tcg?
People are trying to revive the game, there is even a fan/commitee made set that just got released

Too soon?

Not dropping the game, just not buying new products. Probably not selling my entire collection but if i can will not buy new products (at least in the same rate as i did before) and the ones i buy (eventual draft/pre release) i will try to sell as quick as i can. In resume no more 4 boxes for each new set will just open boosters for draft and avoid buying new cards from the seccondary market.
I liked Nielsen as an Artist and as a person bought some playmats from her and after this will buy more. I m ok with WotC banning old cards for racist content, i m ok with WotC having a inclussion discuss. I m not ok with WotC droping an artist for what i can only call "assumption of guilty by association" spread by people that would openly do what many call "bullying" to said artist.
Sincerily hope that WotC starts promoting black and trans artists into the game, contracting those for future card art, otherwise all those HR moves are just lies for views-likes done by one of the whitest company ever (with lots of cis people who think they know better and can judge everyone and everything).
