A bard instrument should grant banding.
And since sarcasm seems to be a lost art these days I feel compelled to say, no, I’m not being serious.

Dontrike posted a message on The nerfed cards on Mirror Mirror on arenaA couple of these likely got a bit far with nerfing, but the real issue is not the cards themselves, though that is part of it, but the playtest & design teams letting things like this through and pushing the envelope far too much since around War of the Spark, we had two years of constant power creep and all of these cards were let through on purpose.Posted in: The Rumor Mill -

Back then, Wizards offered - at least in Europe - special card boxes which contained like a starter deck and three boosters, each in a foreign language. And they contained Korean Chronicles, which were blackborder. I cracked Nicol Bolas and Dakkon Blackblade!!! Talk about FEELS!!!Quote from headminerve »Yeah this card speaks to old players like me because I was a child when Chronicles was printed, and those elder dragons were the baddest thing I could open in a booster pack. Players under 30 y.o. cannot understand the feels ! -

This is a huge colour pie bend though,
It seems within white, they're taxing one card, which is in white's lane all day. The only thing this does that white doesn't normally do is get a look at someone's hand. This isn't discard, but more like forcing your opponent to foretell a card and make it cost more, like an opposite Dream Devourer. -

DJK3654 posted a message on [STX] Elite Spellbinder— Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa previewThe 2 mana tax here may 'only' be 2 mana, but considering that you get to look at your opponents hand and target a specific card, this can seriously disrupt your opponents gameplan. You can stop your opponent from playing a key card, especially larger cards, within the next couple turns, maybe even longer if they don't draw enough lands. Let's say they are playing genesis ultimatum, now they need to wait for a whole nine mana. That could potentially seriously put your opponent on the back foot while waiting for their swing card to come through. Or maybe they have a single mass removal and you give your aggro/tempo deck two whole extra turns to try to beat down your opponent with creatures.Posted in: The Rumor Mill
Seems good.
I like this is a new area for white as well. Natural extension of White's abilities. -

This wrath is very good, especially in your opening hand. Any time you want to stabilize VS an opponent's blitz start, this saves you the game.
It's the azorius commander deck legend from kaldheim -

Black and Wight ?

Be patient, we'll get a stronger version of this dragon in a core set, like they did with Chromium and co. Maybe before 2030 if we behave.

The cognitive dissonance is right there.

I love when the rules feel for the players.

It also steals Stoneforge Mystic and Recruiter of the Guard targets.
It also messes up with a few Storm plays (Dark Petition and Wishclaw Talisman in mind).
It also steals GSZ, Natural Order, Veteran Explorer, Crop Rotation and Gamble targets.
Without considering the fetchland impact but adding other tutor effects in various archetypes, it's useful against 30+% of the metagame. Not bad.

Aether Vial should be a 4-of, it's actually your best way not to be mana screwed !
Champ of Parish and Lieutenant should be 4-ofs too, it's your most aggro start possible.
You play 1-ofs that make little sense to me, like Kytheon (he's a filler card, not highly competitive), Big Thalia is only decent VS Tron (and Amulet according to the situation) afaik. Maybe that's the meta you expect ?
Broodmoth makes no sense to me, it's expensive, while a card like Selfless Spirit answers more situations and can be vialed in or easily hardcast. But overall, Giver of Runes is the cheapest way you protect your dudes and is a target for Ranger. Your deck should accept to lose creatures to removal spells, protection is not as important as in Coco decks with a combo win, where you want to protect Walking Ballista for example. In your deck, Giver is also good because it helps creatures attacking through blockers (Humans lack evasion and that's a big problem).
Shelter is bad with Thalia in your deck. 21 lands is enough if you don't run 4-drops and 4 Vials anyway. To protect your dudes, once again Giver is the most synergistic.
Maybe there's budget considerations too ? I would consider 4 Cavern of Souls in this deck, but I know they're expensive.
Don't get me wrong, I can see you're experimenting a lot of builds, and I wish you loads of fun ! Just objective criticism here (from proven history of the cards).
