when WotC makes these super sick textless cards, i wish they would print the text on the back of the card at least Or like, a QR code to the scryfall entry 🤪
I'm sure there's some exciting unbans today but OOOH can't wait to read about updates to the RESTRICTED list
there's a description when you create a Brode Mode draft! Basically, my drafts were going too long, and I was only playing against 3/7 of my friends each time. So it optimizes for faster events, less waiting, and more opponents.
hmm - it doesn't return cards with X in the mana cost (or weirdly, cards with {10} in the mana cost, either. (when you remove the first OR clause) Maybe others? scryfall.com/search?as=gr... this is tricky!
In MTG, why do only damage spells tell you what the source of the effect is in the card text? And why do they use a different tense? Murder should either say "Murder destroys target creature" or Lightning Bolt should say "Deal 3 damage to any target".
Embarrassing. We have some work to do in 2026. I would like to apologize to my play group.
pitch to keep Commander games from going too long, inspired by my most recent 3-hour Commander game. After opening hands, shuffle 2 "BOMB"s into each deck. Bomb 👇
Had to choose Dragons so I could increase the amount of crossover in creature names with other card games. Spells are easy, creature names are super hard! This Tiamat was given away to visitors at the final fantasy museum that used to exist 😂
There has to be a better phrase than “nontoken permanent” 🙄 Oh right, just say “card”. Tokens aren’t cards.
like, we don't need a rule to deal with the asshole playing "Soldier of Fortune you every time I get priority" because nobody plays with that fucker any more and that's the best solve
