    The Exile clause ruined it :/. COuld have been simple sacrifice it instead of exiling it..sigh


    Development can be so cruel sometimes lol

    maybe they tried it that way and found it was too good? I think they prefer extra turns to not be repeatable these days, at least not with any amount of ease.

    o wow, that snake is sssssssomething elssssssse Smile very cool, hardened scales was good, high hopes for this.

    enchantment does not excite me as much but could be cool for casual vehicle decks

    I wish this was a little cheaper. 6 seems too steep to me. By that point, I have probably cast most of my artifacts and fabricate dudes. I would have prefered a cheaper cost to cast but added mana cost to the activated ability would have been cool.

    A lot of cards in this set are just waiting for a free sac outlet, as there arent any in standard right now that arent once per turn. An atog would be the stone cold nuts.


    MEGATOG! Smile I would sign up for some of that action straight away sir

    Yes I know,but I explained kaladesh have a lot of women in cards.Much more women than other sets.
    I remember some people saying something similar around Theros because of Elspeth and Kiora and Ashiok being prominently featured as planeswalkers, plus heroic greek warrior women. But, some stories have more female characters, some stories have more male leads, just depends on the creative needs at the time.

    An all-star in energy decks, not much use outside of that.

    On that note, it feels a lot like Yu-Gi-Oh, where you have a specific theme and things that go with it, but rarely interact with any other theme and are usually totally forgotten by the time the next set rolls around. Not sure how I feel about that.

    I believe this is called 'parasitic' design. Champions of Kamigawa suffered from it, since nowhere else in the game were there cards that supported stuff like arcane spells.

    Kaladesh doesnt have quite the same problem though, because the energy users also make energy and (generally) vice versa, so at the very least, even with no other cards that have E, you can expect to draw 3 cards at some point

    I doubt we have seen the last of Garruk.

    Man, I would not have expected this to be the topic when coming to the 'aether revolt and kaldesh' thread lol

    There are some decks where this will not be as powerful as people want. I mean, just by itself, obviously it pales in comparison to something like captain of the watch or skeletal vampire, but if you can get rid of artifacts reliably then this is a beast. makes combat trickier for opponent too anytime you would trade an artifact creature

    This would be funny against Infect...if it stopped the creature from blocking.


    Reminds me of timmy turners Dad -> "This is where Id put my trophy...IF I HAD ONE!!" lol

    I think this card is neat, but if you are looking for premium white removal spells, you probably wanna look elsewhere. They are probably being careful after all the awesome cards white got in shadows block
