Started playing Magic with Portal and Mirage. Currently play off-and-on Historic and Commander.
I love collecting older cards, and I’ve put together a full Portal set cube and about 20 thematic tribal decks with cards all from 2012 and earlier.
This is an absolutely insane card and just kind of obliterates a whole archetype. No clue what they’re thinking with this but I think this will push Jeskai control out of standard entirely and possibly cause a huge impact on Legacy and Vintage. Shutting off countermagic 1-way like this is just crazy strong to me.


The forest in the Secret Lair:

Wow I actually did not know this got a reprint. This looks great. I also have such a soft spot for the Urza’s Saga artwork ❤
LOVE to see this many lesson decks!
This is awesome! What a fantastic gift, hopefully you post the top hits you get in these packs :D
I’m hoping to see Boomerang Basics and Lesson decks doing well 🙌
I think it has been in a bad spot since Bloomburrow, personally. Never really recovered from the addition of the mice and monstrous rage and by the time the cards were banned, there were too many other dominant things ready to come in and replace it.
Personally, I’m glad Nemesis and Vivi got banned but I don’t think this is even close to enough to get Standard playable again.
I have been looking for a new format to play and I think for me it’s a curated cube. I think that offers the most variety and fun and I personally love PreModern so I will try to put an old-frame cube together next and just play that from now on.
I also like pre-constructed tribal decks that are all aligned on their power level. I think that has been the most fun to take Elves vs Goblins. I love what MtG did with Jumpstart and I think that’s all I would play if I had more time/money for Magic now.
Looks like they removed tutors from the list of conditions entirely, those must only be identified in game changers.
This is pretty amazing. Watching Emrakul swing in for that annihilator 6 feels so good lol. I love this.
I honestly would be hyped if this was a set of commander decks or a secret lair drop. Being a main set just makes me feel sad. I LOVE turtles, probably my #1 comic / outside interest and I just don’t feel happy about it.
I love this one. Feels more like a black card w/ the artwork but so good.


I agree, I think odds are in favor of that set being a “break” where we see UB/other IP characters as planeswalkers. Spun as “a silly what if?” scenario but then ultimately and always planned as the full transformation.
Wow lol what on earth could this even be… I can’t wait for Secret Lair Crayola to come with crayons and blank cards to make your own!
Wow I stand corrected – currently watching Azorius Control in the finals O_O


This is super helpful, thanks @TehPers@beehaw.org
This is probably needed in every deck that runs black
