(I see that too, on Chrome on PC.)
Hmm. For some reason, when looking at this from my phone, the watermark is displaying in a dark black that obscures the text.
After Phyrexian Shopping Channel, this is an attempt to refine the concept into a more reasonable card.
Mmm. Probably not, given Signal Pest and Contested War Zone. And Gruul War Chant even suggests it's not out of colour as I wondered if it might be given Honor of the Pure. But at the time, of course, things were different.
Seriously, you can't suggest this card is too good to print.
Nevinyrral's Disk off the top of my head. It would be obscene in my Sharuum Commander deck.
Cool. Does it break with anything?
"And this fall, I'm gonna take my talents to Kamigawa..."
old name (Split Decision) now collides with a real card, so change it
I don't think emblems should be quite as much of a thing as this makes them.
But yeah, wow, multiple pings is very hard to assail. And as an emblem, meaning completely impossible to ever remove? Not fun to play against.
Yow-ow-ow. The +1 is crazygood here. If I can keep this guy alive for 2 turns - not completely protected, just alive at all - then I get Arc Lightning every turn. For 3 turns, I get a Pyrotechnics every turn. For 4 turns, Boulderfall every turn. That's even if the opponent has an Invisible Stalker or two to keep plinking Sarkhan's loyalty down.
I wonder if the +1 and -1 should be switched?
Heh; I initially flashed back to Gemb, Wolfcaller - I love this kind of flavour. But thank you very much for the earworm :(
It's always as useful as a 3/3 ; but a 3-mana gold can easily get that. 3/6 haste is... really odd to cost. But "I have a bolt in hand, and can allow it to be the tramper and kill it right now" is a fairly big downside.
Too bad the new Tribute mechanic didn't use +1/-1 counters, or else this could have pulled it off perfectly.
That's better. Still very, very good - reminiscent of Cavern of Souls - but probably printable.
Wouldn't it have the multicolour land frame?
remove colorless
Maybe change the wording to "When ~ etb, pay one or more life, and choose...". that should get rid of the awkward "Why can't I add colorless question.
Well... not entirely. It obsoletes the shocklands on turns 1-4 (simplifying), but late-game shocklands tend to ETBT rather than costing life. Of course, by that stage you've got your colours, and at the moment you could still use this for colourless, so it's better late game than a shockland... yow. Yes, it really does need to either lose the
or ETBT, doesn't it?
I hate to suggest it but... maybe ditch the
option? That way there's at least SOME potential drawback. (Though it still obsoletes the shock-lands)
Yeah. You're getting so much flexibility with very little drawback.
Agree with all that; but the option to be able to use it as the mana you want, or if you draw it as your only colour source, to have both up-front... very nice.
Funny thing is, most of the time, most players will pay 1 life. In fact (except when being able to shuffle on command is important to your deck, and fetching non-basics with basic land types) this is superior to Polluted Delta. I don't think many players really need lands to produce two mana... they just need a land to produce the right mana right now, and dual lands do that ipso facto.
That's not going to always be true of course. Pack enough colored activations and CCDD creatures, or play a five color deck and you're going to need a dual land. In a normal three color deck like Zoo or Jund, though, this is the rough equivalent of a tri-land that costs 1 life when you play it.
Niice. So for 0 life it's Cave (goes in Kozilek EDH). For 2 life it's Sacred Foundry... or any one of its cycle... that might be a bit good. The Cave option replaces the Coastal Tower option. For 5 life it's a City of Brass that you pay 5 payments' worth up front and then it's free after that.
Looks very good, possibly a bit on the strong side. But very nice idea.
It would help if assorted colored counters were a more pervasive thing than they are, to alleviate memory issues with cards like this.
