>>715518716 (OP)
Funny thing is this shit is probably barely even playable.

>>715519319
The game was put into a grave the second they gave black unconditional enchantment removal.

>>715519462
It's a 2 drop that applies immediate pressure and perma-castrates blue as long as it's up, I really can't see it being bad

>>715519305
Yeah
I mean, it wasn't, but i remember when people said that

>>715519462
Everything other than trample and haste mightbas well be flavour text.
Only 1 colour does counters amd damage prevention barely exists

>>715518716 (OP)
every color has removal now

>ban red
>start playing mono green landfall to great success with Tifa
lovin magic again lads

does Wizards have playtesters anymore or do they just use AI to generate cards

>>715518716 (OP)
>use any removal that isn't blue
>this dies like a bitch

nothingburger card

>dies to removal!
That's not a good way to evaluate a card. Every permanent dies to removal.

>>715519689
I play Arena "commander" and Tifa decks keep raping me, they're just too fast.

>>715519693
>implying wizards doesn't make overpowered cards so they can print and sell those cards separately on the market

>>715519686
>>715519703
Now you've wasted a removal on a card that isn't necessary to their gameplan, but still applies enough pressure to make you use the removal.
That alone gives it significant value.

>>715519703
you spend more to counter than the 2 green this needed to exist. you lost

>>715519769
yes, so this reads as 3/2 trample haste unless your caged clitty ass is running monoblue for some reason

>Cori-steel cutter fucking sucks dude, no immediate value AND dies to haywire mite

>>715518716 (OP)
Bounce it.

>>715519856
>you spend more to counter

>>715519902
But enough about your ass on my dick.

>>715519772
i was pretty high on tifa landfall decks pre-ban but red was always a bit faster and just trampled over it, but now its one of the faster decks in the meta, if you draw into snakeskin or the opponent doesnt get the earlier removal tifa can still ohko on turn 3 through a blocker

>>715519907
That's rotating out of Standard when that card comes out.

>>715519528
Is countermagic control even a thing in standard? I heard it's way too fast now.

>>715519610
>Only 1 colour does counters
This pisses me off to no end. Almost every other unique aspect of a particular color has bled across the color pie in some form or another EXCEPT counters, that has remained Blue-only seemingly by fucking divine mandate.

>>715519907
bye bye cut down!

>>715518716 (OP)
>dies to Burst Lightning
>dies to a bear
I dunno man it's certainly above curve but this isn't Cutter 2.0 and hell it's basically a Slickshot Show-Off side-grade.

>>715520026
You just know they're waiting for a bad quarter to pull the "give other colors broken counters" ripcord, I bet the cards already have their art finished and everything

>>715518716 (OP)
Is that utter travesty supposed to be an official card?
Also the artstyle is so generic it hurts to look.
Sometimes I wonder if quitting mtg a decade ago was the correct choice but seeing cards like this makes me think it was.

>>715520142
Yeah it's a spoiler from the upcoming set and you're not wrong, the art quality pretty much peaked during the very early 2010s before they went too hard on DEImaxxing.

>>715519515
I blame commander. Every color has to be able to do everything now, instead of EDHfags just picking a different color combination when they can't do it all.

>>715520112
>You just know they're waiting for a bad quarter to pull the "give other colors broken counters" ripcord
I legitimately think MtG will never have a "bad" quarter anymore, they've proven that people just gobble up the shit that they put out without question nowadays.
Remember how Morrodin was so broken that the lead designer of the set got yelled at by the CEO because it was affecting people's perception of the game? I wouldn't be surprised if the CEO not only doesn't know a single shit about Magic, but actively encourages printing broken FIRE shit to make people chase particular cards.

>>715519528
You fail to realize how fucked standard is since half the time you'll have to use this as a blocker or be dead on turn 3 to monored.

>>715520487
Monstrous Rage is gone bro

>>715518716 (OP)
>all this shit for GG
>probably still dogshit because it dies to any number of 1-2cmc instants available in every color
Yugioh soon, fellow grognards.

>>715519856
1cmc on turn 2 btw

>>715518716 (OP)
I feel like people will still just be trying to oneshot with tifa over using this. Might be a sideboard card in that deck vs control.

>>715520026
Except with more limited requirements

>>715520585
I just came back to MTG from YGO and tbdesu as shit as Magic has become in many ways, Yugioh is literally unplayable.
Like it seriously is a contender for worst TCG of all time, the fact that you have to sit through 15 minute (not an exaggeration it actually is that long) combos every single round only to scoop if you don't have an immediate out is just so unfathomably shit and nobody would play it if not for its legacy popularity and nostalgia.

>llanowar elves is in standard
>playing 2 drop aggro creatures in green
>2 cost creature that only attacks
>dies to all 1 cost removal
lmao

>>715520523
Yeah just ignore the 70 other red cards that aim to one shot you on turn 3.

>>715520765
That really doesn't happen very often without Monstrous Rage at all, you're heavily exaggerating.

people know green has cheap protection for its creatures right?

>>715520217
I've never forgive them for ditching Seb all because he supported the Canadian truckers during the scamdemic.

>>715518716 (OP)
Oh but the Lord of the Rings cards were too powerful for standard.

>>715521087
They should be banned from all formats and you know why.

>>715521057
>scamdemic
Two more weeks before everyone vaxed drops dead right?

>>715521057
In an alternate good timeline we'd still have Terese Nielsen making cards instead of the AI nogslop the game is today.

>>715521006
You aren't wasting protection on this thing. You'll spend it on tifa/hydra while you line up your OTK.
This thing, at best, will be ran out before then to bait interaction. If its even played at all.

>>715521252
How many jabs you on bro? Gotta be like 10 by this point. Unless you stopped getting them because they don't do shit for you.

>>715520837
>play 1 of the half a dozen red drops
>plot slickshot on turn 2
>now you can't play your green beater and have to hold up removal or potentially eat 10+ unblockable damage and either be dead or be in game territory turn 4 onward
This also doesn't include the myriad of decks that either utilize a Vivi prowess otk, a fowl reanimation turn 3 play that laughs at your 3/3, monoblack that will always hold up removal and naturally grind you down anyway, or a better monogreen list that's utilizing Tifa as a turn 3/4 win condition at best, or a much larger baby chocobo at worst. The game is way too fast and way too fucked for a 2 mana 3/3 haste trampler with counter evasion.

>>715521057
I miss when people in general kept their political opinions to themselves. Social media has convinced everyone they need to scream their preferences from the closest soapbox.

>>715521252
Who the fuck cares you fucking retard
What does that have to do with card artowork?
Why are you evil fucking niggers so eager to destroy everyone who voices dissent?

Look up a list for bans over time.

>>715521416
People blame ideological polarization for creating cancel culture and such without realizing that its first and foremost the modern social media environment that creates and fuels both.
But trying to properly regulate or restrict social media is becoming an increasingly difficult prospect both due to its popularity and because it would so easily become a partisan issue.

>>715518716 (OP)
>3/2 trample haste for 2
I mean that's alright but it's not revolutionary.
Good creature. Good card. More of a commander thing because counters and prevention aren't very relevant in standard.

>>715521704
So 20 jabs? Please tell me you got at least two to save grandma.

>>715521707
I mostly blame the mass homogenization of the internet. When social media is like 6 websites max this issue becomes a lot more apparent.
Back in the day if you said some polarizing shit on a forum you'd just be called a troll and banned, and nobody would even know. Now it gets retweeted on social media for 100k people to see.

It was against Control Magic.
It didn't even work against Lightning Bolt or Terror back then since interrupts and instants where considered different card types.

>>715522893
>interrupts and instants where considered different card types.
Wew lad. I started around 7th edition and never knew they were distinct like that before they ditched interrupt.
