P/T! P/T!

That is one wacky Overrun.

I miss sunburst.

It's almost a pity it ended up in an artifact set... kind of makes people think it has to be on artifacts. I would have loved to see sunburst on colored permanents.

While I won't be using Sunburst, this type of mana-color counting mechanic will appear on cards in the {u}{r}{g} wedge.

Gosh, that's a bit different to how it used to me. Makes my Overrun comment look a bit out-of-left-field :)

It makes me sad to just erase dead cards instead of editing to their new forms.

But yes, the Sunburst-Overrun Bot was retired.

Opinions on whether it's aesthetically unpleasant that this costs 6 instead of 5? I chose 6 simply because it felt more balanced according to which colors regularly get Canyon Minotaurs.

I kind of like 5 over 6. 5 screams WUBRG! and you feel like you did something wrong unless you get full value. 6 is a bit more flexible. You obviously want wubrg, but there isn't as much stress, since it isn't so efficient.
