Notably, the text that MH read as "exert" from Amonkhet is not actually the leak. It's actually a new mechanic. Exhaust. Might be an equip-like ability for vehicles.
Yeah, their set design direction is odd and not what it used to be. They need to go back to the design structure that worked so well for the game for so many years.

Start your engines is probably just a thematic way of adding 'target vehicle you control becomes a creature until end of turn' to instant and sorceries. Like learn, it might also have an alternate effect if you can't do the action.. (probably rummaging)
Following the power creep momentum, it'll probably be more like "(3) Up to three target artifacts become creatures. Put two +1/+1 counters on them. They gain haste, vigilance, deathtouch, lifelink and flying until the end of your next turn. Proliferate 3."
To be fair, we’ve had “flavor text” ability tags before. “For Mirrodin!” Was one that just had a block of Rules text behind it. A lot of the Adventure in the forgotten realms cards have flavor text in front do what it actually does.
I'm going to skip this one and maybe everything this year. The sci-fi set sounds somewhat interesting but we all know wizards level of focus these days.
Vanilla Legendaries are interesting because from Muraganda-related card we saw in Time Shift, supporting vanillas is one thing that is mechanic specific for this plane. Maybe the power of these vanilla legendaries will not be specifically on their cards but some crazy support making them worth playing?
My guess is that the “start your engines” mechanic will automatically crew one or more vehicles. For example: “when this creature enters tap it and target vehicle you control becomes an artifact creature until end of turn”
Which is typically what crews vehicles anyway, so there better be a stronger downside then that. A Pilot is a 2/1 meant for crewing, and would meet the standard of vanilla.
Imagine “Start your engines” back when Purp was much more hasty 6-7 years ago. Glad you burned wood chunks enough to find your Zen Mr. Mike. I do miss the insane rants but you look happy. You definitely deserve it man. 🎉
No one on earth asked for more vehicles, nevermind an entire set based on a single mechanic. Vehicles aren't fun and this set looks like a bigger flop than the Cowboys&Indians set that just came out.
I'm hoping that 13/13 vehicle causes you to sacrifice it at the end of turn of it being crewed while the art shows us bunch of goblins holding the vehicle together that looks like it will collapse at any moment.
I could see the cycle of vanillas at a wide range of mana values. Red and white would be 0-1 mana with above rate stats. Blue and black would be in the 2-4 range with above rate but lopsided power and toughness. Green would be 5+ with very efficient stats.
The last thing Green needs more of at present are 6-6+ Haymakers. I have a hard time envisioning Green vanillas that would be worth it that wouldn’t be game-breaking. Either you need an outrageous stat-line, or outrageous vanilla support cards.
The cast spells they don't own is obviously for Gonti, who will be the aetherborn rogue. I just hope he is good as my modern rogue deck needs some help and my standard deck could use help with the tinybones.
@@snowmanO07 tbh, i'm expecting it to be on Lotus Ring level of power (i.e. "what the hell is Lotus Ring???" level of power). Just wanted to hear other people's opinion.
I thought Vraska would be the non-native, since people are saying she gets the spark at the end. Also Jace was hanging out with her... What if it turns out Jace was from Muraganda this whole time and was just messing with people when he said he was from anywhere else. 😲 Oh DARETTI! When you said that I was thinking of Dovin, and I was like I didn't remember him being revealed. So, where is Daretti from? I mean to be fair to riding cats and dogs, there WAS that one guy with FTL Reindeer pulling his vehicle around, so dogs keeping up with a car isn't THAT crazy. 😛 There's like 3 or 4 of those enchantments that make people mill 2 when you draw.
Wasn't one of the 10 factions whole schtick mounting giant monsters? Maybe they have a huge dog and cat or really small drivers in regular sized dogs and cats.
"Savana Cub, a 4/3 vanilla cat for just a singular white mana". Legendary, because why not Or a 11/11 for GGG, because green must stomp Also also, 5/3 for 1R, a vanilla boggart Blue is bound to a 0/8 for U, not even defender, because crabs
That cycle is gonna be drivers with legendary cars that abilities where that trigger when they crew them. haha just my guess. I mean speed racer is vanilla without his car lol
I'm over here still playing Karlov Manor and Ixalan. Haven't liked anything else in 2024. Those two sets have been powering my FNM standard wins and EDH decks nonstop
Ive stopped buying magic and started altering my decks to whatever I like as it does not matter anymore in my opinion. I have a fully finished Spawn Commander and I am enjoying it and the savings ive been able to make lol.
Been playing again for about 10 years now and over the last year or so I've totally lost interest in this game. Universes Beyond I think it what ultimately killed it for me but also just trying to play older formats online and not making it to turn 3 was really the wake up call. The game isn't ever going to go down in power level, games are going to get fast and faster and it just feel like playing rock-paper-scissors now. Your deck loses to theirs, theirs loses to his, his loses to yours, who drew the better hand? Just no enjoyment in it at all anymore. Opening packs just feel like a scam, no thrill from that anymore, just 15 cards I won't ever play. I'm happy for people that still enjoy it but it's just moved beyond the point of no return for me.
If Samut doesn't show up in some Flintstones type vehicle powered solely by her own speed I will be extremely disappointed
What about if it's a giant hamster wheel powered vehicle?
That would be hillarious
@@YusukeFTW also there should be a wacky racers secret lair or Hannah Barbera style showcase cards
And Says, Creatures you control have Haste, and has Tap: Give target creature you control Haste...
If they dont have Wacky Racers themed alt arts or secret lairs I'm gonna be disappointed as well.
It’s a beep beep vroom vroom day in the world of magic the gathering , my neck hurts !
Notably, the text that MH read as "exert" from Amonkhet is not actually the leak. It's actually a new mechanic. Exhaust. Might be an equip-like ability for vehicles.
I’m thinking it’s gunna be more like boast for vehicles.
Ætherdrift sounds like an "Un" set that WOTC decided to make standard so they could sell more boxes.
Totally!

Maybe "put a +1/+1 counter on an artifact or creature you control. If it's a Vehicle it becomes crewed."
Now this is cardracing
Kaladesh Karts is the only name I will EVER call this set.
Omfg i really hope there's a blue shell kill spell...
@captianbacon You may cast "____" as though it has flash if an opponent has more life than you.
Destroy target player's day.
The Wacky Races set is feeling like the Markov Manor of this year
Glad I'm playing Flesh and Blood now.
Glad I am playing FAB and Sorcery now.
Mounts feel fairly evergreen to me. It feels bout as open as vehicles
“After you have a goblin army what do you need a bunch of mana for?”
Twenty point Fireball to the face of course!
Exhaust I believe is new , what you referred to in Amonkhet was exert I believe.
And you would be correct.
Looks stupid to me. Lands look decent if it was for the silly flag.
Another set to skip.
Agreed every magic set is a skip
When I hear the word magic the first thing that comes to my mind is "start your engines"
To be fair, we’ve had “flavor text” ability tags before.
“For Mirrodin!” Was one that just had a block of Rules text behind it.
A lot of the Adventure in the forgotten realms cards have flavor text in front do what it actually does.
18:09 The ability in Amonkhet was “exert” not “exhaust”. This is a new ability
I mean … I don’t dislike the lotus car meme made into a card … I kinda want one now haha
Cue Knight Rider theme
👍

Your comment just persuaded me from buying, thank you.
Same for me, not buying it.
@ Now they are going to send them pinkertons after me :D
@jarnopiispanen3483 more reason not to buy lmaoo
Im so fucking ready for MTG Carmageddon lol they need a sweet tooth inspired carr
The Jolly Balloon Man could drive it!
Road Rage, deals 4 damage to any target, kicker deal 8 damage instead.
Flavor text: 'YOU STUPD DMBSHT GDDM MTHFKR!'

This set sounds mad.
My guess is that the “start your engines” mechanic will automatically crew one or more vehicles. For example: “when this creature enters tap it and target vehicle you control becomes an artifact creature until end of turn”
I will start my engines to get away as far as possible from this set!
That's what I am doing with this game.
speculation: that 13/13 vehicle can only be crewed by vanilla creatures
Which is typically what crews vehicles anyway, so there better be a stronger downside then that. A Pilot is a 2/1 meant for crewing, and would meet the standard of vanilla.
19:54 this made my day, visceral reactions are the best 😂👍
Hope the vanilla legends will be uncommon multicolored with high stats because I can make pauper commander duel decks

"Rusty Robot Ninja Turtles" 🎶
I enjoyed the soap box derby mention. This video was quite a ride.
I think there was an episode of G.I. Joe where they use horses to catch a 200 MPH train, and that was also Hasbro
Prediction: vehicular lotus has, when this vehicle becomes crewed untap it (activate only once per turn)
The gear hulks seems pretty cool. I'm looking forward looking through all the cards in the set once it drops
“Start your engines” is probably haste if it’s crewed
Mike has so much to tell us, so much for us to see.
I'm not looking forward to being disappointed when I see speed demon
For the legendary vanillas, I bet they will have an interesting creature type such as pilot.
Yes, Magic is madness at its best. A Lotusmobile??? How silly can some of these cards get??? Thank you for the video Magic Historian.

A Lotus Vehicle, when it becomes crewed for the first time this turn Add 3 Mana. That could be interesting
Ha! Exhaust is back in a vehicle set. Like putting Unleash on all dogs you control
Crazy that they're printing a new Lotus while Jeweled's corpse is still warm
Not really. This set was probably printed before the banning were announced. The new lotus was probably designed 10+ months ago.

Exhaust and exert are two different things, right? Exhaust might by some kind of variation of exert.
Correct
I love this set already, but I suppose it is too late for the obvious Transformers crossover secret lair? "Lotus vehicle" would be fire.
Ohmygod multicolor gearhulks yes. I built Temur gearhulks back in the day, I'm excited to see what happens with multicolored versions!

That ooze card. Put it in a Slime Against Humanity deck for a nice boost!

Think you are conflating Exhaust and Exert. Not sure what Exhaust is going to be but it might be similar to Exert.

I don't really feel like they'll have balanced powers like four four I think they'll be more like a five two to crew vehicles
