    Benjamin Wheeler is truly a mythical creature from some sort of abyss that contains the consciousness of magic designers or some shit

      I'm partial to the North 100 (I think) nickname "Masquerade Ball Lightning" personally so I also had no idea what this card is actually called

    The token round was a very smart bit of trivia! Draws on an interesting chunk of memory, and giving the set as part of the token helps dig deeper for those obscure cards

    The circle of confinement second ability was actually relevant in one of the last few standards thanks to the prevalence of both bloodtithe harvester and circle of confinement as removal in white based enchantment decks.

    I always love these episodes. I was listening to podcast, and thought it might be fun if, for the section that uses the art as a clue, the "host" tries to describe the art to the audience.

    @gryphon885 2 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    On the thing about the tokens having their P/T being Star/Star instead of X/X, I look through every token with P/T being X/X and apparently X/X doesn't appear on the P/T line ever, instead it's just Star/Star with the card that creates the token having the text of "Create an X/X token where X is..."

    holy carp the instant I saw the dinosaur cat art I *immediately* went to see if I could buy a print or t-shirt or something. there is a version of it with the MTG logo on t-shirts and tote bags on Amazon, if anybody else needs one! (mine's in the mail now)

  • @kylemilhomme7291
    @kylemilhomme7291 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I am an absolute scrub when it comes to rulings so take this with some salt, but I assume the token has no X for power toughness because nothing on the card determines it's X value, but * is just generally used for variable power toughness values so they just stick with that?

  • @markmittelbach7975
    @markmittelbach7975 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So I think I know the difference between X/X and */*. The symbol X must be used in the card text, but * is never stated in the card text.
    For example: "X... where X is" vs "With power equal to..."
