    I just realised that that card counts to five in the mana costs for its abilities and also that when it counts to three, it still goes to five.

    And that's right out.

    ok so, if you use double cast or use Ral Storm to copy this spell, does the copy count as casting your second spell?

    Unless the effect says so specifically (Isochron Scepter), copies aren't cast.

    Cobbled together a Simic Flash deck for the 2020 event. 66 cards, and Mu Yanling is just there because I wanted to give her a shot, could easily remove her.

    Wilderness Reclamation + Spectral Sailor pulls their weight, and then some.

    5 Forest (M20) 280
    11 Island (M20) 266

    3 Mu Yanling, Sky Dancer (M20) 68
    4 Wilderness Reclamation (RNA) 149
    4 Pteramander (RNA) 47
    3 Unsummon (M20) 78

    someone on reddit made a quick mastery pass calculator to see what you need to complete it.

    I'm incredibly close to 100 and probably would have easily gotten there if i had actually stayed on top of dailies and weekly wins a little better. this structure has been pretty forgiving at least if you started at the beginning and play 3ish times a week focusing on quests

    since i'm not quite there though i have to decide if i go for 8 rewards from this terrible catchup event or just spend the 250gems for the last level i'll need and one of those options seems way more appealing but also it's just to get a sleeve i'll never use and the last orb for a kykar i'll never play but also completion?

    Looks like I'll get to level 100. I didn't play for the first few days of the expansion so I was thinking that I wouldn't.

    I don't know if I like the system as it is. I had to install Arena on my laptop and take it on summer holiday to be able to do the dailies. Needing that kind of commitment is kind of silly.

    As far as quests go you really only need to log in once every 3 days. If you can't get the quests to line up that could mean a bunch of random grinding, though.

    That's level 100 settled as long as I keep up with dailies. Not a problem.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    It is but when red ramps it's usually a one-time burst via spell or sacrifice (certain Chandras notwithstanding). Green is more likely to get repeatable ramp, especially when it's restricted like this.

    If you have enough to activate this thing's ability twice and still need the extra mana, more power to you.

    Note that unless this is a creature from Nissa, you can't use its mana to activate its ramp ability.

    True but animating this is kind of saucy if you can also untap it.

    right so the play pattern is, with nissa and kiora on the board: tap 2 forests, activate castle garenbrig, nissa +1 castle garenbrig, activate castle garenbrig again (since it's now a creature), Kiora -1 castle garenbrig, activate castle garenbrig a third time.
