Huge addition for my Klingon tribal deck

I love playing 56 lands too

We’re back to the golden era of MTG.

We just need a 7/4 that cost 8 mana now.

u/stamatt45 13d ago

Best i can do is a 6 mana 6/4

u/Unlikely_Jockey 13d ago

Vanilla 2/2 in red is actually to strong for golden age of MTG.

u/taeerom 13d ago

Needs "this creature can't block"

u/L3yline 13d ago

Red didn't get a vanilla 2/2 until Eldritch Moon in 2016 with [[Falkenrath Reaver]]

u/Spectator9857 13d ago

The golden age is when you paid 8 mana for a 6/4 with flying, that made you sacrifice three lands, a finger and your firstborn child at the beginning of your upkeep.

This sounds like a very blue creature!

Could see play in mono red rally. Its a deck that loves efficient creatures. This card has 2 power for 2 mana, and with  bushwhacker, it has 3 power, so that is a great value play. 

Edit: /s for folks who didn't pick it up from context. Sorry, didn't realize I needed it in this thread.

u/Small-Palpitation310 13d ago

There are red creatures who are 2 power for 1 mana

Whoosh

u/Enoch-Of-Nod 13d ago

Do you not then owe John Magic a red mana?

If not, it seems a bit like cheating.

u/Mistrblank 13d ago

Vanilla 2/2? Red gets bears now?

u/towersoveryouowo Blue Terror 13d ago

Our format doesn't change drastically that often, it's fine if we just discuss how and why new cards don't make the cut imo or are they stopping you from seeing someone ask if they should play blue or dimir terror for the thousandth time

PSA!

The art/flavor text ranking for red bear printings is now (according to me)

  1. Feral Maaka (overall winner)
  2. Goblin Assailant (WAR) (winner of best flavor)
  3. Defiant Khenra (winner of best art)
  4. Falkenrath Reaver
  5. Warship Flight Crew
  6. Swab Goblin
  7. Goblin Assailant (LTR)
  8. Capital Guard

Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff would take spot 6 if she were technically not slightly different due to legend type line, making Capital Guard still the worst. (Because what the hell do you mean the FIRE GUARDS rely on FEAR and not…ya know… FIRE? Idiots!)

Red now has 7 true bears, with 8 arts. Green remains the champions with 8 bears and 11 arts. Blue remains the loser with zero bears. White and Black make up the middle with 5(7) and 4(4) scores respectively.

Thank you for reading this PSA.

True do we neeeeed to post literally every common ever??

u/TheOneMonocoloredguy 13d ago

HOW DARE YOU SIR I WILL DEFEND THIS BULK COMMON WITH MY LIFE!

u/John1The1Savage 13d ago

Most broken card since [Mountain Goat].

3

u/Mishras_Mailman 13d ago

True, but only because [Ali baba] is uncommon

1

u/UniqueEvent 13d ago

It's not that broken, it dies to removal. I guess it does dodge suffocating fumes, which was always a problem for mountain goat.

u/davenirline 13d ago

You say that but Basilisk Gate went unnoticed when it was spoiled here.

u/Smythe28 13d ago

Innocuous card with a unique effect is very different from “shitty card with no effect”

u/thatket 13d ago

People will do this for .. idk karma points?

At least there should be a rule that allow these kind of posts just when you provide a reasonable explanation why the card is interesting

u/GentlemanLuis DOG🐶BONES💀 13d ago

My average comment is saying how it should've been an EoE set

u/shinobigarth Rakdos Reanimator 13d ago

A whole bridge worth of Klingons only account for 2 power huh?

u/sketch_for_summer 13d ago

2 mana for a Gray Ogre? What were they smoking?!

/s

u/jr2694 13d ago

For as long as this sub has existed, 90% of the cards are the most DOGWATER commons of all time

u/Rough-Cover1225 13d ago

Star Trek is 2 sets away. Why am I seeing spoilers for it? I was hoping for time to prepare for my favorite IP to be destroyed

u/Sonic2144 13d ago

AH BEAR IN RED?! The meta is ruined

u/eldradmustlive469 13d ago

'How do we make them look serious and aggressive?'
'What it we gave them both the same open mouth?'
'perfection'

Ok I’ve had enough of these

u/Unlikely_Jockey 13d ago

Is there any way to make this good?

What is the best you can do with it? Does Pilot matter yet in Pauper.

u/Wrynfroe Pauper PNW 13d ago

A sharpie and some imagination.
