  This is probably my favorite blue card in the set. Hard sell with Hammer and Nail, but I am more likely to rock this guy.

• 2013-09-22 04:44:38: The Humanity commented on Out with the Old

  Hammer and Nail is too good a name. I'd rather not trade it for In With the New, you kinda need to be obvious when you reference something. For example, the card Capashen Standard was designed as a cycling from play card. Who knew? I didn't.

• 2013-09-22 03:57:36: MOON-E commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  Yes it is, except this one isn't arcane, so it's a lot better from a design perspective :P

• 2013-09-22 03:56:42: MOON-E commented on Search in the Landfill

  Does it have to?

• 2013-09-22 03:55:20: MOON-E commented on Black Market Trader

  What if the steam powered just let you get two cards instead?

• 2013-09-22 03:54:04: MOON-E edited Airship Assault:

  Changed from 3 tokens to two

• 2013-09-22 03:53:19: MOON-E edited Fog Machine:

  Nerfed the evasion

• 2013-09-22 03:51:18: MOON-E commented on Defense Lawyer

  Ah fetchlands, why must you make things so difficult.

  I suppose this card wouldn't be too horrible as , a 3/2 intimidate for 2 is still pretty good in limited, it just requires the right deck.

• 2013-09-22 03:50:12: MOON-E edited Ovius Serpent:

  Changed counter name to "Gaze", slight rewording.

• 2013-09-22 03:48:57: MOON-E commented on Out with the Old

  I don't really see what about this isn't white. White gets the most wrath effects, and white also uses +1/+1 counters often even outside of this set. If the flavor seems off, then that's easily changed.

  Hammer and Nail is a reference to Tooth and Nail, but we could change it possibly.

  Well since it's better than nothing, we'll go with this suggestion for now.

• 2013-09-22 03:43:18: MOON-E commented on Cyrian Flockwinder

  Maybe this should make nonartifact goat tokens instead, since then you couldn't just stack them all on one goat.

• 2013-09-22 03:42:30: MOON-E edited Cyrian Flockwinder:

  Simplified

• 2013-09-22 03:41:34: MOON-E commented on Academy Curator

  Non-creature artifact makes this unplayable IMO, I don't think it'd be insane for this to cost 3.

• 2013-09-22 03:40:55: MOON-E commented on Casket Constructor

  Changed to nonartifact

• 2013-09-22 03:38:18: MOON-E commented on the cardset Archester: Frontier of Steam

  Think of this as a design hand off: almost every card should be playable. Once we've ironed out the kinks and being testing, we can start the development stage, in which we will raise and lower the power levels of certain cards to pull the format in different directions.

• 2013-09-20 15:22:51: Alex commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  Hm, I hadn't noticed before this is effectively a reprint of Otherworldly Journey.

• 2013-09-20 14:56:07: Raptor1210_ commented on Smog Fiend

  @link This cares about lands being in the graveyard becuase the part of the pairing focuses on sacrificing lands for value and destroying your opponents' lands. Basically the cliche industrialist behavior of greed and uncaring vindictiveness.

• 2013-09-20 14:35:21: Raptor1210_ commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  It does work well with modular. The difference is that unlike the it's interactions with clockwork you'll want to cast this on your opponents creatures. It can get rid of +1/+1 after they've put all their eggs in one basket.

• 2013-09-20 14:17:06: yewlas commented on Smog Fiend

  Just +1/+1 for your graveyard would still make this a good card.

• 2013-09-20 14:14:36: Alex commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  Yeah, Footsteps of the Goryo is pretty black.

  How about the other way round? "Choose target creature card in your graveyard. Sacrifice a creature, then return the chosen card to the battlefield." That could be given a black flavour (like Living Death), but could also work in white (a flavour of redeeming sacrifice, giving one's life for another, that kind of thing).

• 2013-09-20 14:12:55: yewlas commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  Graveyard blinking is more black than white. This will still allow you to rescue a modular guy and make him bigger for when he does die, at least.

• 2013-09-20 13:38:58: The Humanity commented on Rehabilitating Sentence

  This doesn't enable modular like it did clockwork. We could make it do a kind of grave blink: return target creature from your graveyard to the battlefield. sacrifice that creature at end of turn.

• 2013-09-20 13:31:16: The Humanity commented on the cardset Archester: Frontier of Steam

  Except no deck other than the spider combo would run something like memory's journey or spider spawning. A lot of our cards are incredibly versatile, just better with their buddies.

• 2013-09-20 13:19:59: The Humanity commented on Search in the Landfill

  This should exile artifacts as they die.

• 2013-09-20 11:42:57: Alex commented on Out with the Old

  One option would be to just rename Hammer and Nail to "In with the New".

• 2013-09-20 06:50:03: Link commented on Out with the Old

  Both names are very red to me. The last thing they are is white.
  This card is not white to me at all. In fact, with this name, flavor text, and effect together, I would call this black. That, or a white card belonging in a black color-bleed set like New Phyrexia. But this isn't a black bleed set, it's a blue/red color bleed set, at least in flavor.

• 2013-09-20 06:34:44: Link commented on Smog Fiend

  Why is this a black card that cares about lands?
