underpaying them might be the only real crime so far, otherwise he's just too out of scope for the present set of characters who don't really have a countermeasure to darksteel and obv being on spaceship will be to his advantage unless every future encounter is in non-metallic colony or everyone switches to plastics

>>96034228
we hear you, pioneer horizons is coming in 2026 with all the interaction you could ask for

>>96034228
Are you playing Bo1 maybe?
Today i played Pioneer i found White humans, RDW, Landfall combo, Phoenix/Cutter, Jund sac, Rakdos Sac Sephirot, Hammer boros, Azorius Control and Pixie Bounce and that just today...

Agree thought that the format would need some bans but not EVERYONE is playing Red vomit.

>>96034263
It sucks even more that, apparently every fucking thing in the format is designed to be cancer as shit.
Cat/oven. The Mice package. This shit was all designed. Nothing in the format is interesting or emergent. Absolute trash lol. Good riddance, no wonder it has no official tournament support.

Fuck off, Wizards.

>>96034613
Unironically better than Keen-eyed Curator upfront due to trample and haste alone. Im glad I invested in Delirium stonks early

>>96034613
How many above curve 2 drop hasty tramplers does one archetype need?

>>96034613
>literally fuck blue and white forever: the 2 drop

>>96034613

>>96034613
>No Hexproof
It's shit. GET WITH THE TIMES, WOTC.

>>96034613
The problem with Questing Beast was clearly it didn’t fuck over control players and cost too much.

>>96034613
Dies to Flood Maw

>>96034613
I hate this design not because it is blatant, unrepentant power crepe.
I hate it because it is fucking boring, generic and they didn't even TRY to do something interesting with the flavor.

>>96034613
Because it actually needed built in trample on top of haste??? Giving it double strike with and bonus combat with FOMO will cause seethe for many months to come

>>96034613
They really want mono green to actually do something

>>96034613
Damn, this is the biggest trap card they have printed in a long time.
Two toughness, and dies to removal. This is a sideboard card against hard control in an era where hard control doesn't exist.

>>96034613
Replaces Curator in the main deck. Curator is a sideboard card now. You effectively only have Patchwork Beastie and Fear of Missing Out as creatures without haste in most builds.

>>96034613
Why the fuck is green stopping damage prevention now?
That is and has always been exclusively Red's slice of the pie.

Effectively Ghetto Cranial Plating for all those UWx Siren Spyglass and Inspector decks

SUICIDE BLACK

>>96034613
zesty lil fella

Hell yes, today's leaks mean we are going to see a ton of high power / low toughness creatures that are meant to be used for station but I'm going to use them to hit people in the face instead.

>>96034812
Why would I play this?

Rate my idea for a card

Furious Balothecidon GG
Creature - Beast
Trample, Haste, Hexproof
This spell can't be targeted
Whenever a player casts a noncreature spell, counter that spell and this creature deals 4 damage to that spells controller
Noncreature spells can be countered as if they didn't have an ability saying they can't be countered.
When this creature enters, each opponent reveals their hand and library. Exile all no creature spells from their hand, library, graveyard and the stack, then they shuffle.
4/3

>>96034812
This card will be a massive problem.

>>96034821
Your opponent's creatures don't gain counters if they don't exist. Also, who cares if you are giving them counters anyway if you are making them very dead very fast.

>>96034812
Why is there a negroid in space? They haven't even tried to learn how to do civilization in Africa.

>>96034826
No Reach?
No XGG cycling trigger to destroy artifacts?
It's trash.

>>96034613
This game has totally jumped the shark, this shit is just embarrassing.

>>96034812
Can someone explain why this?
>Rare
Seriously... Why?

>>96034844
Wow, total garbage. Cute.

>>96034613
>>96034812
Is it time for standard to get even worse again?

>>96034812
>4 power menace that's always a 2-for-1.
No but really though this card is fucking CRACKED.

I do like the art.

>>96034856
Station enabler for 2. In reality some decks cant churn out enough creatures to chump block the thing effectively early. 1st turn Cecil, 2nd turn this card hurts.

>>96034876
xD BIG NUMBER!!!!!!!!

Entropic Battlecruiser at least looks minimally worth testing, maybe in the Monument shell. That's a shock that we even got one Spacecraft that isn't total crap..

>>96034876
Ah yes. Shitty cards that are going to be broken in commander.

>>96034889
>Station enabler for 2. In reality some decks cant churn out enough creatures to chump block the thing effectively early. 1st turn Cecil, 2nd turn this card hurts.
The Ward is what makes it disgusting. Low cost, high power, evasion AND nigh-guarantees a 2-for-1 is a combination of things that no card should have. This thing is NUTS, doubly considering it will be in a black shell that can just remove shit that might absorb those counters. It's basically not a downside at all. Not like your opponent getting 1 extra power means they'll be able to race your fucking turbo-juiced evasive threats.

>>96034876
What were they thinking with station? These are absolutely rancid, are these even playable in limited? I kind of expected there to be 1-2 pushed ones(smuggler's copter) but seeing those bottom two it's like they had absolutely no idea how dogshit this mechanic is.

>>96034876
Extinguisher is competing with Phyrexian Portal for artifact reanimation slots, but targeted removal is pretty good. Don't give a fuck about its station ability.

>>96034911
>Extinguisher is competing with Phyrexian Portal for artifact reanimation slots,
No it isn't. Portal actually does shit after removing threats. Extinguisher just farts on your opponent then sits there doing nothing.

>>96034812
How the fuck do you win games on the draw in this standard?
They play a 4 power menace 2 drop with ward discard
You don't get to block it because they will just remove YOUR creatures on the next turn
You can't outrace them on the draw
You trade removal with it and lose 2 cards, against black? lmao you're empty handed to a bat

but hey you can just be ON THE PLAY and run out a turn 2 haste trample 3/2 and remove their shit even of its 2 for 1 yourself because you win the race. They trade removal, you play more haste

>>96034912
>U
>Do literally nothing

>Spend 2 power to get...... 2 power.....
>Spend 9 power to get........ 4 power......
what did they mean by this?

>>96034844
isn't this a pretty good card?

>>96034918
It can hit lands, at least so it is the swiss army knife where Portal is the main guns.

>>96034940
>It can hit lands, at least so it is the swiss army knife where Portal is the main guns.
Yes but also you could just not do that and reanimate Portal instead, hit nothing and then have a Phyrexian Portal instead of a deadass brick.

>>96034952
>2BB...
>Creature....
>"Is it better than Sheoldred?"
>"No? Nevermind."

>>96034957
sheold is rotating retardbro

>>96034920
Mono white token durdle control is a thing so it can gum up the board with tokens from Overlord and cheap enablers while farting out wipes every 2 turns.

Delirium is strong though, yeah. The haste and trample makes it better than it already needs to be

>>96034961
And also isn't seeing play before she rotates.

>>96034928
Its just a way to print 2/2 fliers in some kind of clue / map / etc token deck. You tap it with some etb trigger creature you expect to chump and die
its the most playable station so far because it can actually be stationed in a real game

>>96034844
Kinda bad when your three option modal card can be a dead card.

>>96034972
>Its just a way to print 2/2 fliers in some kind of clue / map / etc token deck.

>Until end of turn
Not exactly what I think of when I hear "print"

>>96034901
>another 5 mana exile all creatures to replace sunfall
At least it doesn't give them a body on top, but fuck this shit.

>>96034911
>Don't give a fuck about its station ability.
You can tap 5 power worth of dudes with its etb on the stack, seems very easy to wipe the board and be left with a 10/10 flampler

>>96034952
Do aristocrats even want to play anything that's more than 2/3 mana?

>>96034876
>2G
>Enters and does nothing (zero things)
>7 fucking power to get it online
>Once online, it's a 4/5
>All for the incredible benefit of... putting a creature onto your already 7+ power battlefield!
Fucking hell, man.
This shit has to be a joke. There's no way this is real. These are literally some the worst cards I have ever seen in my life. This is actual Homelands-tier shit.

>>96034613
I just bought into Gruul Delirium yesterday. Good thing I did, damn

>>96035015
commander staples

>station costs below 8
It's his turn

>>96035003
Sadly anon you can only Station as a sorcery.
Yes, WotC is that fucking stupid and does not want anyone to have fun.

>>96035003
Station is sorcery speed only lol

>>96035015
This set has to be a controlled demolition of the Magic IP. These station cards are so bafflingly horrible, like actually just mind-blowingly bad. This is going to be the biggest flop of all time and the thing they point to next year when they announce that Magic is only crossover product placement sets from now on.

>>96035047
>>96035052
Tragic

>Station is the worst mechanic in Magic history
>Warp is the strongest mechanic in Magic history

I wonder which half of the design team was responsible ofr each

STOP WITH STATION SHIT
GIVE ME ELDRAZI
GIVE SLIVERS
GIVE ME WAAAAAAAAAAARP

>>96034943
Might be neat to warp this guy in to station something and then draw a bunch of cards. Doubt it'll be constructed viable but at least we can meme in draft.

>>96035077
>Warp is the strongest mechanic in Magic history
?????

>>96034973
>defending player
aww man, it would've been so cool with herald

>>96035077
Look up who helmed the set and what expansions he worked in and you'll get your answer

>>96034978
It's pretty rarely a dead card. It can be removal or recursion or an emergency life infusion. It's Gix's Command with only one option, and that one was pretty damn good.

>>96035114
>Literal halo swords

>>96035114
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>96035114
They really didn't want people to be blocking with creatures this Standard, jesus

>>96035114
oh shit, herald DID get an upgrade

>>96035114
>"reverse" FTK with some upside

Not sure if I like it or not, but it is interesting.

>>96035114
>Turn any creature into a Nemesis
Sure this will not lead to any problem right bros?

>>96034978
If my opponent doesn't have any creatures or planeswalkers to exile I don't really care about having a "dead card in hand" that is also instant speed by the way, retard.

>>96035114
>red recieves another absolute busted card that invalidates blocks and forces black/white removal
Some day i will have to pay a visit to this retards at WotC.

>>96034960
good wrath

>>96035176
>>96035154
>>96035199
If you think this card is remotely playable you're actually completely retarded and should be put down.

>>96034613
lmao they are desperate for mono black aggro and mono green stompy to be real decks again
the game has evolved way too much in the last 20 years for that to be the case, but I appreciate the sentiment

>>96034844
>Charms are back
WotC is going to keep some of the FF momentum and pull off another good set.
didn't think they had any of this in them.

I will be sincere, i don't see a single Station card that is worth in Constructed.

>tg things 3 mana auras are playable
kekw

>>96035207
it goes in my meme storm herald deck, it's better than burning anger

>>96034934
Oh I like this.

>>96035213
They're all designed for EDH.

>>96034920
You cast >>96034960
Or something like playing deep cavern bat against it would be devastating.

>>96034901
fuck that's some good art

>>96035207
This is spoiler season, we're here to piss and shit our pants, not logically evaluate cards.

>>96035114
Ok, the meme Nemesis + Self Destruct deck has a third piece to it now. It won't be good but it will sure make some people really fucking angry.

>>96034929
this is kind of nuts? even without etbs you can reanimate some big stuff every turn

>>96034901
Sunfall, Lockdown and a new black wrath at least we have tools now.

>>96034901
goatsie detected

>>96035255
There are already cards like this and they don't do anything. There's that 3 mana demon from FDN for one.

>>96035255
the creature comes with no abilities bro

>>96035255
You'd want all the cheap big bodies with downsides, but then you're playing a deck with shitty creatures and your payoff is vanilla bodies.

>>96035282
>There's that 3 mana demon from FDN for one
he doesn't actually reanimate creatures, he exiles and makes tokens of them, he also can only do it for creatures that entered the graveyard in the same turn and he exiles all tokens if you make another one, he's super clunky

>>96035266
It has to be 2 hands to be goatse

>get email subject line “where is my order???”
>open it, guy is freaking out that I haven’t marked an order he put in 8 hours ago as shipped
>check the order
>it’s an 80 cent chaff rare

>>96035287
what I said here >>96035304

>>96035292
if the vanilla body is big enough and you can make another one every turn it can get out of control quickly, I'm not implying it's a tier 0 strategy but this definitely feels like it has some potential to me

>>96035316
do your job yuo bloody basterd bich. i repot you asp

>>96035341
I did not think that was the image I selected.

>>96034749
I hate it for both reasons. Just a bunch of random green abilities puked out onto a generic rabid beast thing with a bunch of horns. Reminds me of Questing Beast.

>>96034613
rdw ftw

I THINK SPACECRAFTS SUCK

>>96034832
a menace even?

>>96035114
>The creature deals the damage
xD le nemesis go zoom

>>96035367
>Just a bunch of random green abilities
And one red ability!

>>96035367
I mean the horns and shit getting piled on haphazardly is pretty much basic bitch baloth art design philosophy, it's how they've always looked. This one is rather furry and has a snout, that's what sets it apart. It's like a yeti baloth.

>>96035417
Haste is not exclusively red's thing, they don't get to "own" going fast.

>>96035425
I think he's talking about the anti-damage prevention

>>96035425
It's fucking red, bruv.
https://scryfall.com/search?q=o%3A%22can%27t+be+prevented%22

>>96035440
Damn it's literally all red outside of three green cards. He's right.

>>96035452
>One of them is Questing Beast
>The other one is RG
lmao, WotC don't give a FUCK about the color pie.

>>96035417
The same red ability that Questing Beast had... only Questing Beast's damage prevention was a rare non-symmetrical version of the ability, so it could hypothetically combo with fogs, not that it needed to. Was there any damage prevention in that standard?

>>96035471
>Was there any damage prevention in that standard?
Not that I recall, but one shitty 3cmc fog might have slipped in somewhere.

>>96035471
Yeah there were a couple but why would I play even og fog when I could load up on more one-sided fight cards and smack my opponent's desperate attempts to block Questing Beast?

>>96035471
Not worth playing, they were doing the classic WotC move of overcompensating against a strategy in the set that rotates it out. Nexus of Fate turbofog was a meta deck in the previous standard.

>>96035471
>called Questing Beast's ability "damage prevention" when it's actually damage prevention prevention
kill me
>also, sudden realization that damage prevention has been a very rare ability on playable cards for a long time and thus damage prevention prevention is probably the most irrelevant ability in the game

>>96035520
Welcome to why the new beast is just a 3/2 with haste most of the time.

>>96034912
If it said end of next turn then I would consider it.
At least give me a way to fucking block when you while mechanic is based on tapping all your shit down

>>96034952
The blue cat is a better draw engine

>>96034613
Not sure what's worse, the initial shock at how power crept this is or the gradual realization that it's probably going to be irrelevant in the current meta. This isn't a Questing Beast, it's a Bloated Contaminator.

What's a good way to get into EDH and build a decent card base? I haven't played since Zendikar and that was only for a year, and before that I played a lot from 5th edition through 8th. So I have no cards anymore.

Would grabbing a pre-con and a box of Commander Legends be an ok way to start? I don't expect anything amazing, just to have a batch of stuff to build on.

>>96035566
>What's a good way to get into EDH
ask here >>96035535

>>96035566
Buying sealed is a massive waste of money. Buy a precon and then upgrade it with singles.
Don't ever bother buying sealed product unless you are going to draft

>>96034812
so we got Cecil and Bob last set
now this and the B 2/2 haste.
but the best black card is Annex and none of these are demons.
Suicide black will not be good

I literally can't concieve who will be the retard to play any Spacecraft.

>>96034613
Unplayable.

>>96034844
Baby Gix's Command.
I like it.

did someone order an unplayable mill card?

>>96035626
they make one life gain mill card in FF and now they lean into it.
noobs are going to love this archetype.

>>96035626
It's clearly meant for Hope

>>96035626
oh the faggets are moving mill to UW lmao
0 creativity from those bastards.

>>96035639
This feels more like a combo card because of the warp cost

>>96035639

>>96035670
hmm hmm hmmm

>>96035670
This thing isn't good, but Unearth for a 9/9 ward 3 plus 3 landfall triggers isn't nothing.

>>96035687
Good. The performative scripted spoiler seasons have been played out for over a decade now. I want to see entire new sets all at once.

>>96035626
Jace replacement.

>>96035639
This is probably the best design in the whole set. It makes Hardened Scales bros want to test it, it makes commander fags want to play it, it makes combos tards look into exploits. And it is just a "lets make half of doubling seasson but for 4 manas and set mechanic as a bonus".
>>96035652
It just makes it cheaper. You can have infinite (as long as you can pay {1} for the loop) sac with Spawning Pit.

>>96035658
You guys remember the Jawas from Starwars!

Creative bankrupt companny.
>>96035670
Ok, I like this one.
>>96035687
They knew they had done shit so they delivered a couple of boxes 2 months earlier (for people to leak).

Why are we getting more seedship/ice planet exploration leaks than actual insect card leaks? Are we really getting only a handful of Eumidians out of this set, or are most of them just common bulk that's not worth leaking?

Also why do most of the insect-related cards care about counters, but the only insect cards we've seen have nothing to do with counters?

>>96034613
>>96034876
I haven't played a game of magic since they raped Lord of the Rings, and I pop into the thread randomly to see shit like this. lol. Did all the designers quit, or did they all receive brain damage? These are some of the worst new mechanics and worst designed cards I've ever seen. Shit art and shit mechanics, name a more iconic modern magic duo.

>>96035984
Yeah, the ability comes from the station, not the creature. If you drop a station and you meet the threshold immediately, it'll have summoning sickness too though.

This set is fuckin goofy

>fell for the aristocrats meme
Wow this shit sucks when literally every piece of removal exiles

>>96036432
I mean, yeah? Isn't that what you wanted? Every time we do a UW set, it needs to have everybody arrive in order to Do The Thing, or else they Miss Out on being able to Do The Thing. But it's not so bad. All it takes is a quick costume change and everyone's ready for the next set!

>>96036157
Yeah I get that, but we've already seen almost 40% of all the rare in the set and effectively 40% of all the mythics, so it's making me extra nervous to think about.

Side Note: They just spoiled a few common insects. They mostly suck, but a Virus Beetle reprint is nice since it's a decent filler piece that plays well with delirium.

>>96036610
It was a sideboard card for a minute not long after it came out. It was good at answering any threat control would play. I could see it seeing play again in the right meta.

Guessing the green ones are more about counters, the black ones more about warp/void. It's not a tribal set, I doubt there'll be a strong archetype for them. Maybe a few solo pushed cards.

>>96036753
This set sucks and is very boring.

>>96036728
Most named characters didn't give a fuck about TWWT in Kamigawa.
I don't even know where to start correcting you about Lorwyn and Shadowmoor. To start with, the majority of characters have no clue that the plane even changes.

>>96036758
>It's not a tribal set, I doubt there'll be a strong archetype for them. Maybe a few solo pushed cards.
Yeah, they already printed a pushed 4-drop that does tons of landfall-related stuff, but I really hope we get some sort of insect card to hold a tribal deck together. It keeps feeling like they're trying to tempt people like me that want to play insect tribal outside commander (i.e., a real format), but they don't actually want the deck to be popular enough for it to be seen as a representation of what Magic is, so they give as much as they can to the commander players without enabling the cards to compete with anything in the base format they were originally printed in outside being a niche utility piece (Grist, Haywire Mite, Springheart Nantuko, etc.).

>>96034812

You'd need to give it haste somehow but yes.

>>96036753
Meltsrider resolves Turns anything with Menace Unblockable

>>96036860
NOT Everything STATION turns into a creature.

Elevator doesnt have summoning Sickness

>>96036721
The 10th reprint of ravenous rats but with a different name. Just "descend" by a different name but with just a slightly different trigger. And then more +1/+1 counter spam on every other creature. How boring.

>>96036872
Germinating wurm can't station anything on the turn you warp it if you don't give it haste, dumbass.

>>96034613
>dies to cecil

>>96035341
I refuse to do my job. You will get your bulk when I decide. Muahaha

>>96036855
I don't get it, green creatures have always had flying, hornet queen is one of my favorite cards.

>>96036878
oh god.
ill have to look you up the exact ruling, but Station is not triggering Wurm ability, same as with Crew so it can be tap even with Mana Sickness cause the ability tap belongs to someone else.

>>96036896
It feels like they haven't printed any hornets in general since 2017, almost like they really hate the idea of printing realistic bugs. Maybe they're not fantastical enough or something?

>>96036878
If tapping a creature is part of an additional cost/cost to activate an ability, you can tap the creature regardless of whether or not it has summoning sickness. The tapping restriction only applies to the creatures own abilities or attacking.

Station and Warp are clearly meant to work together.

All I can imagine is they came up with an idea as shit as Station, then spent a full week trying to brainstorm how to shoehorn it into a set without it being complete fucking garbage until they came up with Warp.

>>96035676
its Azure stall, it WILL have counter/ Unsummon, and whatever flavor of Exile you want from White.

>>96035626
this will be extremely cancerous (unfun) to play against

>>96036913
They're fine with beetles though

>>96036896
It's aggressively statted fliers that's that's the problem. Green technically has flying with reach but it's the unblockable part that's the problem as to many fliers would undermine green's strengths.

It's like Gaea's Gift except it untaps creatures instead of granting hexproof.

>>96036855

>>96036985
I am aware, but it is supposed to be a very irregular ability in the color, if it ever appears, requiring huge downsides. Red cards with flying are also generally joke cards, like the goblin rogalo.

1st turn Spyglass Siren
2nd turn Hylderblade, crack token auto equip and swing for 4. Alternatively

I like that attitude... you'd be a dark consultations thessas oracle cunt in commander.... im considering doing that too, but amulet titan seems like its a solid deck. I just need feedback and im older, I've been playing off and on for 20+ years is this going to be fun or what am I getting into...

If I didn't want to play amulet titan, is there a different deck in modern which is similar to the whole style? I mean I used to play tron... but stuff like ramp and combo were always appealing, what is the best control decks in modern and how should I sideboard in most match ups if I stick to amulet titan???

>>96037239
I suspect Pain for All is why Hearth Fire Hero got banned.

I used to play stax and workshop decks in vintage and I dont really want to fuck around, im just ahh fuck it. Okay ill buy the damn deck. You're right.

I'm the newest amulet titan player nobody has met, but im going to just prepare and all ima do is win.

Well i bought 73 cards... I don't know whatever I got the 4 Titans, urzas saga lands, the fucking amulet, scapeahifts, im not sure which cards weren't included in the order, but 73 out of 75 ain't bad, especially if the super important parts are there. I've paid more for less

>>96037330
I bought 73 out of 75 cards, probably going to buy a few more, but I will compare lists and go further... ill at least be able to say I never gave up.

Mark reveals who is at fault for Edge of Eternity.

All I knows is there hasn't been a decent ability mechanic for a set since fuck.... foretell? Before that, I dunno, split second was pretty kino, then uhh further back.

They lost me at the bullshit cards they did one set of before going back to the same style... where the fucking manacosts are on the left side of the cards. They lost me as a player on that one move, for a long ass time... then when planes walkers came out it brought me back, but some people still cant play after that thing happened.... and yixclid jailer or whatever he's called 2 mana super prison effect is a very relevant individual which can double as a win condition

See I played vintage and landstill has always been my favorite, well I played stax too and well.. it was a different meta back then.

You can Station in installments so you don't necessarily have a 7+ power battlefield.
That said, I hate how that Spacecraft has weird anti-synergy with Warp for no reason.

>>96037252
You're going to have to do your homework and grind out all your lines in single player so you're not taking 20 minute combo turns (it's actually kind of fun).
It's difficult relative to other Modern decks but it's a bit overstated, kind of depends what your skillset is as a player. If you've over only played Modern/Standard then sure it's difficult.
The deck slaps so you will dumpster people. I bought it recently to play Modern for the first time in over a decade and 3-0'd the first FNM having never played it against someone before. Only a dick move if you are slow/incompetent with it. But at FNM level most people are pretty chill and concede early without making you play it out.

The real idiocy is printing this mechanic into a Standard you know Beans was in.
How fucking stupid do you have to be to even think of doing that? Was their plan for the entire fucking 18 months design cycle just "We'll just ship it anyway and preemptively ban Beans?"

Is this the first example of a card being banned not for power level, but to shoehorn a shitty idea into a format?

>>96037852

Due to overwhelming popularity of recurring value engine like Warp cards we've decided to add a new card type, called Warp Station!

Imagine if you will, a 2025, Post EoE Rotation Standard, where Up The Beanstalk was not banned in June 30th of that year

waiting till 2027 for a clear design mistake sounds like a retarded idea honestly

>>96038056
Better than shipping the design mistake right the fuck now.

Using the banlist to ban a design mistake uncommon is what the banlist should be used for.
Would you rather have years of cards that can never have their play cost reduced or have alternate costs?

>>96038047
I mean thats the point, of ban, to rein in problem cards and also cards that will card that other wise will hand tie the dev team.


Beancounter is the later, as you said, if not bannned they would have had to wait till it rotate out... n that would have been 2027

>>96038102
won't it more realistically only draw a single card on average?

>>96038204
If Terrasymbiosis is only drawing you a card on average it is likely not very good ngl.

>>96037787
Why are they greentexting? Also why is the recommended action RUN when they are on a spaceship?

Big fan of Mobilize. None of the cards it was on were that strong (best is arguably Voice of Victory and it's practically flavor text there) but it synergizes with a ton of archetypes and was very fun to build around. Hope it comes back eventually.

You know what's funny? This is pushed as shit in a vacuum and I'm still not sure it'll see any play.
