Haha. That card is awesome.

 

I feel like Commander only exist for them to make some weird ass cards

 

yooooo

 

That's so cool. It turns like a videogame where you get new skills the longer the game goes

 

Wow. So they don't lose the counter if you bounce that card. That can be pretty nifty with some bounce or exile/return stuff.

 

Getting back into this after a long (too) break. I think I lost my white/green deck which was stacked with some gnarly angels though.

 

well

that flavor text tho lol

 

Well check out that fancy new type line! Legendary Planeswalker — Jace. You must have many questions. Let's pec away at them.

Starting with this set, all planeswalkers past, present, and future will have the supertype legendary. They will also be subject to the "legend rule." The "planeswalker uniqueness rule" is going away. What does this mean? In short, everything that's true about legendary creatures will now be true about legendary planeswalkers.

Under the new rules, if a player controls more than one legendary planeswalker with the same name, that player chooses one and puts the other into their owner's graveyard. This means that if you control Jace, Unraveler of Secrets and cast Jace, Cunning Castaway, both Jaces can exist under your control.

Planeswalkers will continue to have planeswalker types (Jace, Nissa, Bolas, and so on). However, those subtypes won't be used by any rule to determine what a player can retain control of. Cards like Jace's Defeat will continue to be able to refer to those subtypes.



i knew about the legendary change but the uniqueness rule? WHOA. that changes deckbuilding a ton going back in time. gideon tribal in modern might be a thing

 

jesus i was not expecting to be both overwhelmed by mtg and music news today

 

This card has been gnarly in my dragon deck.

 

Behind the Scenes with the Alleged Ixalan Card Theft

jesus i didn't even read this article, i'm shocked they're being so transparent here

 

What on earth Ixalan?!

Does this mean you can now play different versions of PWs in one deck?

 

well you always could in one deck but now they can both be on the battlefield at once

 

You could always play more than on version in a deck, but now you can more than one version in play. Pretty sweet rule change IMO except for its ramifications on the new Gideon.

 

Oh, yeah. That's what I meant haha - you can now put two different versions in the battlefield.

Thanks for clarifying.

 

gideon tribal in modern is going to be a sick deck

curving 3/4/5 gideons is GG

 

lightning strike back in standard oh shittttt

 

That is going to be interesting. No reason not to pack 4 if you're going red

 

Hazoret might get banned. instant speed 3 damage was what this deck was missing from making it OP. I don't know what R&D was thinking.

 

I'm all about the dino tribal. lol

 

I just want my Dinosaurs to fly ships

 

Maybe Dino Crisis 3 is more up your alley.

 

spell pierce reprint, opt reprint (first in modern), they're really cranking up the power level of spells in the format this time after being a creature fest for so long

 

PS 50$ for all 4 copies of Ixalan commons/uncommons is a good deal, right?

 

Are you in the states? I think the more competitive LGS around here (MTGFirst) does them for 30 or 40 dollars.

EDIT: I'm wrong, that's a pretty average price.

Was dreading having to (slowly) buy Chandras but this should lower her price a bit, pierce make her a lot worse. I'll still need some for Ramunap Red but not a full set, I don't think. Wish I would have a sold my pierces awhile ago tho.
