@SaffronOlive Because if the goal is to win the most valuable promos and not win the tournament, then your OP has serious problems (and nothing in Magic IP is going to beat an Ahri)

@Chosler Last hitting is a dumb mechanic in general; one of the best things HOTS did was get rid of it.
(I've moved onto Pokemon Unite as my MOBA of choice, and still think last-hitting the bosses is dumb, though neutral minions make it make more sense in lane)

@GregorStocks Can you get PureMTGO's backlog on there, since that was taken down? I also have all my articles if that's helpful.

@SamuelHBlack video is private

@SaffronOlive MaRo said it was more making space for potential sets rather than having them actively in development.

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@SaffronOlive DFC's aren't printed in Commander sets though--and that's what most of these exceptions are.

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@SaffronOlive @nachoeveryday Graymond (Rick) seems like the biggest miss in terms of value--the lack of Universes Within (and the Commander decks in general) is the biggest surprise overall.

@SaffronOlive @EfrenHaz Through the Breach is the least-weird, as its Innistrad art has existed for a while (though Splice is still weird)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@MagicOnline 1. Are the (paper-friendly) new MB2 cards coming in that update?
2. Are the Starter Collection-exclusive cards just not going to be on MTGO as FDN versions?
3. Is the only way to get Hinterland Sanctifier/Starlight Snare the Account Upgrade?

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@karsten_frank Thanks for the effort--I figured out a work-around :) (and of course thanks for gathering the data in the first place)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@karsten_frank Do you have a version of that "cards not in Explorer yet" spreadsheet that lets me save it, or at least highlight/copy the data?

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@dbloodworth2 It definitely took a while for NOA to make mention of a US release ;)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@stephentotilo I thought outlets collectively stopped agreeing to post-release embargoes when Ubisoft tried to hide AC Unity's problems by having the embargo be twelve hours after launch? This seems even worse since there's no advantage to agreeing to it other than the code being free?

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@SIFTDgames That tease! Good to know you won't be running into ONL though :)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@patrickklepek @crossplayblog If you're interested in going deeper, I'd recommend Coaster College's YT: https://t.co/NAgZqjHu57

It goes into detail on theme park safety, along with deep-dives on specific accidents (and more fun content like debunking clickbait about parks).

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@Chosler @DFWDumpsterFire that's what the duos are for--you also don't need explicit typal as much in Limited (and the cards are pushed so much triggering on every creature by default is too strong)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@SaffronOlive Serious question: why isn't there a way to get rid of the "spell that loses all its targets fizzles" from the rules completely?

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@SaffronOlive It feels like they really want to do something between Lizards, Outlaws, and crimes, but I don't know what all the pieces are (and it seems like most of the best ones are all two-drops so far)

[Vincent Borchardt @VincentSIFTD]

@dbloodworth2 If I had to guess it would be the new price for PC, but I guess since the price isn't changing until September they don't have to tell us :p
