Top 10 Cards that Share a Name with a Keyword
One of the side effects of Magic coming up with so many keywords over the years is that sometimes, a card will be printed with the exact same name as one of those keywords. This, in and of itself, isn’t all that interesting of a detail. However, there are way more of these cards than you’d think at first glance, and more than enough that asking the question of which of these cards is the best becomes a compelling one. Today, we’re going to take a look at these coincidentally named cards and see which of them has had the biggest impact on the game

Failed MtG Designs - Companion
Просмотров 22 тыс.День назад
Mechanics will come and go in magic, each with their defenders and detractors. Few mechanics are universally reviled by the community, with Companion being a rare exception. After some initial shock at their reveal, players were cautious about the cards up to release. Once they finally got their hands on them, people began to detest the cards, many calling for every card with the mechanic to be...
Top 10 Cards That got BANNED Fastest in Magic
Просмотров 65 тыс.Месяц назад
Bannings aren’t exactly a rarity in Magic, as sometimes, cards just have to go. However, it’s usually because old cards end up being too good with something new, or new techs being discovered. It’s generally a bad sign if a newer card needs to be banned. Of course, Wizards is far from perfect, and sometimes, they make mistakes. Big mistakes. Today, we’re looking at some of the most overpowered ...

Top 10 Worst Black Cards in All of Magic

Black is mostly known for it’s removal, discard, and draw power allowing it to function as a powerful midrange color, or its unique effects letting it help out combo decks. Of course, sometimes this doesn’t work out. Sometimes the cards are overcosted, sometimes the effects are just bad, but either way, none of these cards have ever been worth playing.

The setting was so popular that Wizards has returned to it on two separate occasions, and we’re likely to visit it again at some point. Today, we’re going to revisit this set and see if it’s a worthy successor to one of the most influential sets in the game. Though, before ...

    Horrible rap song. Absolutely terrible. Id rather batter my whole sack in crushed ritz cracker and dip them into a mcdonalds fryer than listen to this genre of music again. Also According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Ooh, black and yellow! Let's shake it up a little. Barry! Breakfast is ready! Ooming! Hang on a second. Hello? - Barry? - Adam? - Oan you believe this is happening? - I can't. I'll pick you up. Looking sharp. Use the stairs. Your father paid good money for those. Sorry. I'm excited. Here's the graduate. We're very proud of you, son. A perfect report card, all B's. Very proud. Ma! I got a thing going here. - You got lint on your fuzz. - Ow! That's me! - Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000. - Bye! Barry, I told you, stop flying in the house! - Hey, Adam. - Hey, Barry. - Is that fuzz gel? - A little. Special day, graduation. Never thought I'd make it. Three days grade school, three days high school. Those were awkward. Three days college. I'm glad I took a day and hitchhiked around the hive. You did come back different. - Hi, Barry. - Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good. - Hear about Frankie? - Yeah. - You going to the funeral? - No, I'm not going. Everybody knows, sting someone, you die. Don't waste it on a squirrel. Such a hothead. I guess he could have just gotten out of the way. I love this incorporating an amusement park into our day. That's why we don't need vacations. Boy, quite a bit of pomp... under the circumstances. - Well, Adam, today we are men. - We are! - Bee-men. - Amen! Hallelujah! Students, faculty, distinguished bees, please welcome Dean Buzzwell. Welcome, New Hive Oity graduating class of... ...9:15. That concludes our ceremonies. And begins your career at Honex Industries! Will we pick ourjob today? I heard it's just orientation. Heads up! Here we go. Keep your hands and antennas inside the tram at all times. - Wonder what it'll be like? - A little scary. Welcome to Honex, a division of Honesco and a part of the Hexagon Group. This is it! Wow. Wow. We know that you, as a bee, have worked your whole life to get to the point where you can work for your whole life. Honey begins when our valiant Pollen Jocks bring the nectar to the hive. Our top-secret formula is automatically color-corrected, scent-adjusted and bubble-contoured into this soothing sweet syrup with its distinctive golden glow you know as... Honey! - That girl was hot. - She's my cousin! - She is? - Yes, we're all cousins. - Right. You're right. - At Honex, we constantly strive to improve every aspect of bee existence. These bees are stress-testing a new helmet technology. - What do you think he makes? - Not enough. Here we have our latest advancement, the Krelman. - What does that do? - Oatches that little strand of honey that hangs after you pour it. Saves us millions. Oan anyone work on the Krelman? Of course. Most bee jobs are small ones. But bees know that every small job, if it's done well, means a lot. But choose carefully because you'll stay in the job you pick for the rest of your life. The same job the rest of your life? I didn't know that. What's the difference? You'll be happy to know that bees,

One job forever? That's an insane choice to have to make. I'm relieved. Now we only have to make one decision in life. But, Adam, how could they never have told us that? Why would you question anything? We're bees. We're the most perfectly functioning society on Earth. You ever think maybe things work a little too well here? Like what? Give me one example. I don't know. But you know what I'm talking about. Please clear the gate. Royal Nectar Force on approach. Wait a second. Oheck it out. - Hey, those are Pollen Jocks! - Wow. I've never seen them this close. They know what it's like outside the hive. Yeah, but some don't come back. - Hey, Jocks! - Hi, Jocks! You guys did great! You're monsters! You're sky freaks! I love it! I love it! - I wonder where they were. - I don't know. Their day's not planned. Outside the hive, flying who knows where, doing who knows what. You can'tjust decide to be a Pollen Jock. You have to be bred for that. Right. Look. That's more pollen than you and I will see in a lifetime. It's just a status symbol. Bees make too much of it. Perhaps. Unless you're wearing it and the ladies see you wearing it. Those ladies? Aren't they our cousins too? Distant. Distant. Look at these two. - Oouple of Hive Harrys. - Let's have fun with them. It must be dangerous being a Pollen Jock. Yeah. Once a bear pinned me against a mushroom! He had a paw on my throat, and with the other, he was slapping me! - Oh, my! - I never thought I'd knock him out. What were you doing during this? Trying to alert the authorities. I can autograph that. A little gusty out there today, wasn't it, comrades? Yeah. Gusty. We're hitting a sunflower patch six miles from here tomorrow. - Six miles, huh?

    Squire should have gotten "Bands". It would make banding good enough to use, and would itself be good enough. Banding with 1/2 was massively more useful than 1/1. You could use banding without killing the bander. (Assign 1 damage to the 1/2). But Banders were almost always 1/1 which means they die when assign damage to them, away from their partner, which was the whole point of Bands.

    @ericsmith3808 3 дня назад

    The solution is simple: make companion restricted to singleton formats. Print a series of new companions with the specific companion restriction that Lutri had, and then also make them count as part of the total number of cards in your deck, like how the partner mechanic works, but not as powerful. Next thing you do is just make them not so powerful. Maybe give them effects that can only be used once per turn, or just really underpowered or basic utility abilities. The problem with these cards was less the fact that players could have access to them and moreso how busted their abilities were. If the abilities werent so busted, there wouldnt have been as much of an issue outside of commander-ifying other formats.
