My first though was ravager and hangerback.

@benjamin_berry that is actually a great idea, you could even go so far as to rent out staples of the format and maybe even whole decks if you wanted to.

I'll tell you what I'll comp your entry fee if the morning of the tournament you come listen to my presentation on investing in card time shares. /s

if no one tries decks like these the meta game never changes right?

You can remove sharpie with rubbing alchohol. If you’re gently enough it won’t remove ink. Easy to find volenteers to test on.

I'm thinking Tasigur, Gurmag Angler, Murderous Cut, Snuff Out, Pulverize, Fireblast, Blazing Shoal.

He doesn't play well with Bob though.

Maybe since they've done full art lands so many times now they'll do full border lands

If you can’t loose at a game without being rude you need to re-evaluate why you’re playing the game.

On the other hand a handshake isn’t the only way to congratulate your opponent. Any honest attempt will do.

If they made it public after a delay, say a month, I think it would be a better compromise.

I thought squires were 1/2s.

So you need to be rich or have the right friends to play? Still a very exclusionary environment.
There is a new business opportunity here though. Renting power for a tournament.

My only concerns on issues like this are game balance and card availability. But neither of those are new to the game.

Looks like their solution is to use Oracle to retcon the names of the cards

Won’t that mean that players who own The Walking Dead cards can now play both versions in their deck?

No, it does not. The cards, in Oracle, would identify that they represent the same card and would be treated by deck building rules as if they were the same. Think of them as functioning identically to the Godzilla skins..

My first though was Fastbond, Radiant Fountain, Sunscorched Desert

But it says opponent.

I think the decks that could make use of different duals would be the non blue agro decks like various hate bears / humans. So if there was enough duals that are good enough those decks could drop fetches and even possible incorporate more anti fetch measures.

Because a magic deck looking like explosives in an airport scanner isn’t enough. It needs to be metal as well.

Exploration, fastbond

@thewhitedragon69 I was thinking how Storm would just get a chain of vapor or outcome would hurykle you. It’s not like you can flash it in with the storm trigger on the stack

@thewhitedragon69 as it been mention in other places with regards to modern storm, it doesn’t interact with the mana acceleration or tutor chain so they just get an answer along the way.

To me this is how you’d have to word a stifle for ‘a spell or ability that would put a creature into play’

Now what happens to the creature is separate. Do you say ‘it doesn’t’ like cage? I don’t think that would be a strong enough effect.

I’d also like to point out it hits factory, mutavault and nexi.
