    Ahhh yeah

    Although that's interesting cos obvs he is not a native God, he's a planeswalker imposter

    A lot of the native gods so far seem to be largely bant, which feels actually somewhat appropriate to me; more the colours of fate, order and nature

    Also, today's Planeswalkers' Guide article lists all twelve (:eh:) Scoti gods, some of whom sound very red (Toralf, Birgi) and black (Egon, Tergrid).

    A weird number of 5-color cards and effects in this set.

    Too many IMO. I predict we're gonna run into the exact same shit that we did with Omnath: high power shit that green just plays anyway because the drawback of "specific colors" and "mana" become nonissues.

    There will be plenty of people using that with Lurrus. I wouldn't expect a tournament deck to come out of it, but they will absolutely get used together.

    I prefer to not use Lurrus as companion anyway; you can't even have the other three copies in the main.

    Lurrus companion is one of the if not the top tier deck with dimir rogues

    And monowhite agro is pooping on most/many decks right now and runs Lurrus in the deck, not as companion.

    He's got a good role in either position.

    Ah ok, they're trying the "Cast your second spell" thing again as a tie in with foretell, which makes it easier to cast multiple spells in a given turn.

    as an aside, obviously it's a bit early to be talking about strixhaven, but something that interests me about it and Battlebond is that they seem to be interested in experimenting with fantasy tropes that don't translate into a whole World. "the great gladiator arena" and "wizard school" are classic tropes that people love visiting in their fiction but if you're operating on the thought process "magic sets have to represent a WORLD" they don't fit. you can't have a world that is just a school. so it's interesting to see them start to toy with sets that zoom in closer on a world, even if it's not a world we've been to

    With Kylem, I feel like they used two tricks to really make it work.

    First, make the location where the set takes place a sort of cultural axis that the rest of the plane's civilization revolves around. The people of Kylem aren't just into sports, they're super into sports. So the stadium is technically just a place, but in actuality it's the place.

    The second trick is to make the location a microcosm of the larger world. No one lives at the stadium, but everyone goes there. Every race and nation has representatives. It's the melting pot of its world.

    Strixhaven will likely use the same two tricks, only instead of everyone being sports fanatics, they're hardcore academics instead.

    Come to think of it, I remember MaRo once saying that one of the most commonly requested themes they haven't done yet is Prison Tropes World.

    I could definitely see them doing a Battlebond/Stryxhaven style set about a plane that has a big, important prison.

    I really hate that this could say "when this attacks, populate" although I understand why it doesn't.

    EDIT: actually I take that back. This can copy, say, Treasure so isn't precisely populate. (Also populate doesn't target.)
