The name and flavor is on point, honestly. Nicol Bolas stole three gods for his own purposes long ago and the people don't know their names because they forgot they worshiped them and Nicol Bolas would never care to keep them. I bet the other two coming are going to be similarly named and will also be returning to the hand once they die as a pseudo indestructible ability. The reason they can attack and block and have the undeath ability is because they are corrupted gods. They don't require any worship since they have no ties anymore to the people of this plane.

Depending on the body, being able to through away deathtouch snake tokens or whatever chaff you have for cards seems like big game!
This is fairly close to what everyone has been asking for to the point where I am more than happy to run it. I assumed we would get a 6/6, I wanted a 6/7, and I am happy with a 7/6. Trades with a few too many things but worth testing for sure.
Cogwork Librarian is one of the most fun drafter conspiracy cards. I am constantly wishing it would show up in traditional draft formats but alas it will never happen.
I currently run a lot of conspiracy type cards in my cube but if and when a handful of cube worthy cards get printed in Unstable I might finally hit critical mass to have a real conspiracy/un module and then I'd remove them from the traditional cube and just add them for when we want to do something fun and different.
Does anyone have a Momir Vig avatar on MODO? Looking for more people to play with.
Also, has anyone ever tried a Momir Vig stack/'cube'? I remember a poster(?) had a video of he and his buddy doing one, but this was years ago at this point and I don't remember who it was. Kojiro? Is that a user that used to post here? My brain feels like that's right, but that's my brain speaking and can't be trusted.
I have the avatar and would play at some point. Let me know.
This is interesting. Its almost a wrath with a worse version of echo. You can't choose to not pay the echo and if you tap down before you untap, you are paying a larger echo. For a one mana discount. It kind of reminds me of savor the moment a little? I'm curious to hear how it goes in testing but I am not giving this the benefit of the doubt to try it myself.
Forsake the Worldly is good. I don't know if I like it better than disenchant, and Im not sure I absolutely need both, but it has been fine on both modes.
Having it against both Wurmcoil Engine and Scuttling Doom Engine was a life saver. Also great against Purphoros. Those were my experiences with it last weekend.
Samut not having trample is a huge problem. So far its been easy to just chump block it until you find a removal spell.
Combat Celebrant seems good but fragile. The 4/1 body can be decent or can be terrible depending on what you are up against but if you can set up a decent to good attack that you want to do twice then it can be ok. So far I have yet to see it as a kikki jikki combo piece.
nice facts there. but it doesnt really change the overall feeling. that they keep printing generic humans for 20 years doesnt make it much better even though the numbers stay the same. (basically because humans are mainly seen in white and red)
if you browse the thousands of "make you own card" theads on various forums you will notice how much more design space magic has if it wasnt managed by the most annoying moron named MaRo, but at least we got flipcards *puke*
So you are saying you having a feeling, were proven wrong with facts, and refuse to change. Someone needs a snicker bar....
My favorite magic card is Symbol Status. I love armies in a can and I love the way it plays around outside the box of traditional magic cards. I also love how it pushes you to incorporate cards from as many sets as possible in your deck to ensure that it is most powerful. Its like a forced trip down memory lane that is fun for everyone (except your opponent...)
Do you have a link to your list? I bet we could find a better cut.
What would you even cut for it?
I can see curving out in an aggro deck with this thing being great.
