I definitely agree with the tough love for fireblood. It's like an enchantment that says your dragon spells cost 2 less to play, except it's easier to remove, and probably costed you 20 dollars.
Tribal decks are looking really good. Knight Tribal is great. Valiant Knight lines up perfectly with the Knight boost from History of Benalia and the Equipment is really nice. Goblin Tribal gets a ton of nice tools and now has a lord that craps all over artifact decks. Extremely cool looking. Spirit Tribal may not be good in Standard, but the two mana lord may make the Modern Spirit deck become really good. Dragons are getting a TON of support and, while they cost a lot, the payoff is huge. Heck, even Angels got a few great cards.
Blue Spirit lord feels a little odd when we are presumably going to be getting a load of W/B spirits from the Ravnica sets (or just the one with orzov if they are splitting em). But besides that I think Blue does feel right for it.
Dang it! I just picked up a couple copies of Banefire from Cardsphere; Conflux and MM15. I'm happy to have another chance to get a foil Enigma Drake though- such beautiful art.
Lol Ajani's welcome rivals Mario's hosting abiliies. Welcome to Mario kart. Lena is a shoddy version of captain of the watch as cap gets 3 2/2 tokens with vigilance, in addition to itself. But limited sure.
Arcades could see play in modern due to being pretty cheap and having a good body, this can make a dead 0/3 defender for 1 a 3/3 that draws you a card it makes tree of redemption a instant kill if you can untapped it which you can do for cheap with magewritht’s stone tree of perdition is also a instant kill if you can untap it, I wouldn’t be surprised if arcades saw modern play
You know... if you play Sarkhan and you have dragons in your deck that rummage ability means you draw them sooner... making the 2nd ability more relevant ------ Heeeeyyy, Enigma drake might be a good 1 or 2 of in the R/U wizard decks.
Saturday I am making one but yes Karn is still dropping in price. The average listings currently are around 46 dollars but buying is light right now because a lot of players either have Karn or the ones that don't are going to wait until after the Core Set drops and the meta shifts in Standard.
A lot of cards previewed again today. Which ones stood out to you?
Heroes and Legends MTG That Glorious Sarkhan is what I need in my life. (Him + 20 Bolas)
Heroes and Legends MTG I think Sai Master Thopterist is going to be a great card
Heroes and Legends MTG stitcher goes straight into my GB gift deck
Chaos wand just because it's such a bolas flavor card imo, why use my own things when I can use theirs
The first two mana spirit lord

As an avid bant spirits player, im very happu with the support core set gives and also the 2 mana lord is like a dream comes true for the deck
great video good job on getting to the point and nice commentary
Thanks!
Chaos Wand?!? It slots right into my Etali steal yo stuff commander deck!
Supreme Phantom for sure!
It'll be fun to brew Spirit Tribal in Modern. XD
Agreed, I think that card could push the build in Modern.

i could see some play with darksteel citadel or some indestructible artifacts phylactery lich

Valiant knight is a curve. History turn 3 valiant turn 4 valiant ability turn 5 with history trigger
It's exactly the follow up that History of Benalia needed, it's a two card combo that can really only be stopped by settle.
Honestly so hyped for this set
BOI with sarkhans second plus one you could drop a 5 drop or even six drop dragon the next turn i feel like he is being extremley underrated
love the art in the background where is it from.also m19 is looking awesome cant wait to do the prerelease
Yes, I believe it is one of the Forests in the Core Set . Wizards had posted it in one of their articles.
Stitchers supplier pushes black gpg I think
I could see that as a possibility.
I’d put it on the indestructible modern artifact land
Thanks
No problem!
Whens market watch? I have a karn im trying to sell for £40 and nobody is buying is he going down

Heroes and Legends MTG cool and thanks, my friend pulled him and i trying to sell him. Oh well
would trashmaster be a sideboard for 8 whack for KCI, Lantern, Affinity & Tron matchups?
The casting cost makes me a little weary but you never know until you try. I would test with proxys and see how it plays.
The problem is that shattering spree will always just be a faster and more immediate option
Woah woah woah. No one noticed poison-tip archer says whenever ANY creature dies? Hello Commander board wipes.
wall tribal commander, YES Trump deck. Its gonna be huuggee
Its slightly ridiculous of WOTC to so obviously and blatantly leave the one elder dragons last name that may cause controversy off the new card.
