[MTG] Origins Spoilers! Elf Tribal! Goblin Piledriver! Demonic "Vorthos All Star" Pact!

The Betgirl

Herald is my last shot to build grim guardian control

Kelor

Robo Lions is going straight in the cube.

Actually, this set has a ton of stuff revealed so far that I'm interested in for my cube.

Kelor

Titan of Erebos 1BBB
Creature - Giant (Mythic)
Titan of Erebos is indestructible as long as no opponent controls a creature.
Whenever a creature is removed from the graveyard of an opponent you may discard a card. If you do, return Titan of Erebos from your graveyard to your hand.
5/5

I needed anime to post.

WiseManTobes

Whippy

Omfg can black devo be a thing again for the last five minutes it's legal

Kwoaru

that titan is some bullshit

KalTorak

Herald means I'm going to jam Constellation right up until rotation.


Gilt-Leaf Winnower is like if R&D said to themselves "Let's try and make an Elf who's like... super racist."

metaghost

Origins is weird looking.

Knob

Can't decide if I like faerie miscreant better than hypnotic siren.

Drawing cards is great, but drawing a siren late or with nykthos has won me a metric butt load of games

The Betgirl

I'm willing to say that UR artifacts is real as fuck.

Tokens for Origins!

Uh, Arena of the Planeswalkers is out now I guess.

And Gideon "Kytheon" Jura's origin is up too.

Theodore Floosevelt

2/3 thopter anthem for 3 and instant artifact divination sound pretty solid to me

Nullzone

Just so we're clear, the translation on titan of erebos is incomplete - it says "Whenever a creature card is removed from the graveyard..."

So it works with Delve and a bunch of shit; it's not just anti-Deathmist Raptor

Tomanta

Where was this stuff last year when I was trying to do U/R artifacts? Now I don't care much because I have barely played at all in a year.

It does say opponent's yard though right? That is the only thing making it not super unfair as far as I can tell

Ilpala

This set is going to be so goddamn fun.

The Betgirl

look at this guy's dumb facial hair

if he lost it i would like gideon 203408x more

KalTorak

At first I thought Erebos' Titan was a sweet combo with Pharika, since she can exile creatures from their graveyard to bring him back... But that gives them a deathtouch creature, and he won't be indestructible anymore. Humph.

Yeah, it says opponent's graveyard.

I'm An Elk; Shoot Me

There is no way I'm not building a Thopter deck

No way

I bet it did say player at one point

Knob

UR affinity is hot fucking fire

shergak

I really like the Indian overtones to Chandra's home plane. Kaladesh, Ghirapur, her parents: Pia and Kiran. That's a nice touch.

The Betgirl

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

HOLY SHIT that's bananas in aggro/burn.

Like... Does modern burn maybe even want that? Jesus

Pinfeldorf

Is Magmatic Insight a 4-of in every combo deck in Modern that can afford red mana?

Like, does this make the Frank Karsten Borborygmos/Griselbrand/Nourishing Shoal deck tier 1?!

metaghost

I'm under the impression many felt Grishoalbrand was already Tier 1.

The Betgirl

Grishoalbrand has a better chance of getting a banning than amulet bloom imo

I did not know that!

Kilroy

does anyone here have experience with puca trade?

I really want to get full value for my raptors but I don't want to deal with actually interacting with other people

Terrendos

Definitely in consideration to add to modern storm. Getting to dump otherwise useless lands as you're trying to go off as well as using the much more abundant red mana? Sign me up.

Radius

pucatrade is the minimal amount of interaction possible, you just have to mail it.

Yeah, I know plenty of people who use it. Don't hear many complaints.

Knob

I have to magmatic insight with a pyromancers ascension out. I have to do this.


Oooooh. Or insight with goggles. I can do it in standard.

Nullzone

A lot of people have great success with pucatrade, and even I've received a number of cards from it with reasonable success; however my experience sending cards through it is less than stellar - I had a dude slow roll me for three weeks on a trade for 12 Abrupt Decays. When I opened a dispute, he immediately responded and says he's been on vacation, and that some of the cards look damaged, but that he's willing to have me send him points to cover the difference. I'm like okay, we can talk about that, but I packaged those cards exceptionally well, so damage seems unlikely; can I see pics first? And then he's like no actually I just want to cancel the trade, I'll send you the cards back.

Thankfully, I got them back (and none of them were even the least bit damaged). But seriously, magic players are some of the worst kinds of nerd when it comes to transactional behaviors, so bear that in mind - you're wading into all of the miasma that comes with trading for cards IRL, but on a much larger scale (and one with some amount of sight-unseen trust between parties).
