Nice that they’re including the enemy fetches. Of course, they should have been reprinted a dozen times by now, but I guess we just have to take what we can get.
I don’t like any of the Secret Lair cards with art that doesn’t look like MtG, but I do really like that Cultivate. It’s close enough to MtG art style and the scene it depicts is just really cool.
Kaya is my favorite MTG character atm, and I am loving that Teferi is back. it is really nice having people of color represented in MTG.
I just wish there was not the showboating to go with all of it, and that things like this could be done in silence and everyone who makes the game and plays the game not bat an eye about it.
Man what a world that would be.
It’s Black History Month. Calling this showboating seems exceptionally tone deaf.
100% of the proceeds of this secret lair go charity. What’s wrong with that? Oh, you don’t like that the charity only helps black women and girls? Well, do you complain every time you see a St Jude’s commercial because they only help children?
Oh, you think giving black women a little bit more representation in the game is a disingenuous attempt to... do what, exactly? What’s going to happen? What will happen when WotC makes these reprints with black female characters on them? How is the world going to end?
I wish that demon was some other creature type that could slot into a Marisi deck to add some more redundancy.
And I will be really disappointed if Kaya and some newbie roll up and take out one of the more powerful Praetors like it’s nothing. It wouldn’t be as bad as the Jacetice League taking out two of the three Eldrazi like it was nothing, but it would still be really freaking stupid. The villains get taken out too easily, it makes everything feel so low-stakes. What’s even the point of having an ongoing story for years and years if everything gets resolved with lazy ass-pulls?
I wonder why the distinction of "protection from God creatures" was necessary rather than "protection from Gods" like we have seen in the past when something had protection from a creature type.
The Kaldheim Gods are flip cards this time around, so this card doesn’t have protection from the non-creature sides.
It seems pretty obvious to me that this is just teasing the future Phyrexian threat to come and not the core conflict of this set. Not sure why so many people are getting bent out of shape over this.
And this is a great card. It’s not as oppressive as the original but it’s still very useful and powerful. This is how they should be designing powerful legendaries.
Because even if this is the only card this set it means future visits to the plane are ruined.
Why? A Praetor scout doesn’t mean the Phyrexian horde is going to invade Keldheim. And even if they did invade WotC doesn’t really do sad endings any more, so Keldheim would most likely just fend off the Phyrexian invasion.
