I once played a house rule where you could tap excess Mana and put it into a sort of “savings” which could accumulate and be used in later turns. It definitely broke the game but it was pretty fun
Paul Atreides
January 15, 2021 at 7:24 pm
Legends of Runeterra implemented a similar system, where you can “bank” up to 3 mana to be used on spells in the following round. It’s implemented very well and adds a lot of nuance to the game.
Dudits Grey

There are cards that allow you to bank Mana now. Horizon stone for example or kruphix.

I find it funny that the summoning sickness is related to how long you’ve had the permanent in play not when it became a creature. Seems to imply all permanents have some sentience allowing them to avoid being disoriented when they become creatures. I guess the experience of being summoned is more intense than gaining sentience.

Tefaris effect would take precedent. So you would still only be able to cast things at sorcery speed.

Because this is purely designed to advertise the game and that’s it. They talked about combat for 2 minutes in response to the 2/2 fighting a 2/2 questions ffs.
Michael Lewis
January 15, 2021 at 11:00 pm
My favorite two cards are righteousness because you can bait powerful creatures into attacking a threat and then kill it with +7/+7 for only 1 white. The other one is Maze of Ith because it’s a land that untaps an attacking creature making it deal no damage or receive no damage, thus disabling it and killing lots of strategies that rely on a single powerful creature. It can also allow you to use a powerful creature safely in case your opponent buffs their creature in an effort to kill it. You just respond with Maze of Ith and their creature buff is wasted.

And this guy would say they have no more value than any other card, with a straight face, because admitting the after market exists means the EU can call randomized booster packs gambling.

Seriously you game designers sure have made some really poor cards lately. There is no way you guys play tested some of the cards you release. And why do you guys keep stuffing down our throats mill decks? I have yet to find a person who enjoys playing against this. So why? If no one enjoys playing against it why make the game unfun.

I know EDH mono white joke of being hated by design for not having any way to properly ramp and draw cards.
Lane Renner
January 18, 2021 at 11:01 pm
@ODDnanref A lot of it is just a spillover of the EDH joke, but some of it is also because of the busted cards printed outside of white in Standard that make fairer cards like a lot of the ones in White look a lot worse.
There’s also stuff about not being able to draw cards efficiently, as well as other colors seeming to take chunks of the white color pie for their own with cards that could be white, but aren’t.
infinityproductions
January 18, 2021 at 11:24 pm
@ODDnanref no, that’s basically it. But EDH is pretty much the most popular format now, so it’s just known for being bad.

I used to pilot a ‘Death and Taxes’ and a ‘Prison’ mono-white style deck for Standard or Legacy game formats. Those decks change how a normal game is played, making the game slower or adding effects to the game that you planned for but your opponent did not. You get into a lot of arguments, and in general are not fun to play against. That said, in a game format with more players like EDH/Commander, those mono-white deck archetypes make you the target of the other players to eliminate first so they can go back to playing the kind of game they want to play.

I have a question, if a MDFC phases out, can it return as either side of the MDFC or must it remain on the side that it phased out as?
Rosa
January 24, 2021 at 4:57 am
Phasing does not cause a permanent to exit/enter the battlefield. So it will remain on the side that it phased out with.
However if you flicker (i.e. exile it then return it to the battlefield) a MDFC it will always return with the front face up (or remain in exile if the front isn’t a permanent).
