Oh cool, I’m glad they did for all the people who like playing with him. Good job by the RC.

Wow I don’t think I’ve ever actually looked at that art before but yeah dang, thats up there.

Probably one of the most horrific card arts ever, still can’t believe this made it onto a card but really glad we get them every once in a while.

Ad Nauseam is another I think of when I’m thinking of gruesome cards.

tl;dr Neheb the Eternal is nerfed. Anything that just says “postcombat main phase” now only refers to the “second main phase” so if you have something creating more then it won’t keep triggering.

Darwin Kastle!

I love this card and played it nonstop during Urza’s block in Ponza.

Best Explore art to date, perhaps second only to the Hildebrandts’ LotR commander art. This is saying something too bc the original Avon art is already amazing.

Art is amazing, those moles are simultaneously frightening and adorable.

That beard is both hilarious and amazing!

This seems fun as a big mana payoff maybe but it just doesn’t seem efficient or reliable enough for most of the game.

It’s a 2 mana draw 1, at cmc 3 it’s probably a Divination, and 4 probably also just a draw 2. Sorcery speed.

It’s then a minimum of 5 cmc to cast the spell for free, and you have to go 4/4 on card types which seems incredibly unlikely. More likely you’d get 2-3 card types so this thing seems at best a 5 mana sorcery speed draw 3 then.

Never truly a dead draw which is nice and the more you can pump into this the more it reads as a draw 4 + cast a spell for free. It just doesn’t feel good enough most of the time.

I might be reading it wrong but I think the first one enters with one +1/+1 counter b/c Gev’s ability targets an opponent (not each opponent). The second one would be 2 counters assuming you hit a different opponent, etc.

Love that imagery. It’s any tokens too, so two… foods or treasures driving a car somehow.

Wow most of these cards seem super cute to me and I’m really glad for it, it’s a breath of fresh air and I think a lot of artwork brings back a sense of whimsy that’s been really missing for a long time! I love it too.

Never thought I’d see artwork like this in a Standard set again, this is really nice and reminds me old school artwork.

Off topic but that typo made me actually lol

This is so interesting, thinking about it now I’ve never associated the wedges or shards with themes or qualities, just individual representative cards or decks I guess.

Bant is Noble Hierarch for me, and Abzan/Junk is Seige Rhino. Esper is Raffine, Jeskai is Narset, RUG/Temur I think of RUG Delver. Grixis is Mishra or Nicol Bolas.

Sultai I still always call BUG and will forever. I always think of Shardless BUG from Legacy a while ago, and I guess this one is the exception because I think of actual bugs too.

Ah yeah you’re right I missed that, that definitely is downside, pretty decent even

Is this just a straight up 2/2 for 1 with no downside (and potential upside even)? I know Isamaru being legendary is very little downside but I don’t think this has ever existed?

Holy cow actual nonbasic hate in standard? I love this. Price of Progress is a really strong effect and I’m curious if this makes it into other formats too.

Oh yeah, I’m just being a bit tongue in cheek. I also wish they aligned the art and type a bit better with power and toughness, but with power creep that ship is long gone. This one just seemed particularly hilarious.

Is this the first Standard legal card with Threshold since Judgment?
