  Yes, this is nice.

• 2013-09-11 12:55:17: Patrik Andersson commented on Realm Blade

  Thank you alot Vitenka, i'm glad you like it. I was thinking of making some playtesting IRL with his. But maybe i could even be able to try it on some playtable with people here?

• 2013-09-11 12:51:36: Patrik Andersson commented on Shrine of Devotion

  Cool, i thought it would play nice with white.

• 2013-09-11 12:51:11: Patrik Andersson commented on Shrine of Growth

  Yes i was aiming for the Zendikar common lands for this cycle. "with some changes"

• 2013-09-11 12:50:46: Patrik Andersson edited Realm Blade:

  Added a cost to produce Elementals.

• 2013-09-11 12:49:52: Patrik Andersson commented on Afterlife Druid

  It should be ETB yes, And YES Vitenka you might use it.

• 2013-09-11 12:49:27: Patrik Andersson commented on Century Beast

  I wanted the toughness to be 1 lower, so that the card wouldn't be to powerful because the set is kinda low powered tbh except for some cycles. Don't want the card to take over by it self.

• 2013-09-11 12:48:24: Patrik Andersson commented on Grave prospect

  I wanted it to be one pure graveyard hate instant to sideboard against the Lavish theme. Because i think a card that could spam each turn would make Lavish cretures to bad.

• 2013-09-11 12:47:31: Patrik Andersson edited Grave prospect:

  Added Card draw to make this more intrestsing.

• 2013-09-11 12:46:15: Patrik Andersson commented on Pillar of Iscandar

  I like that you like it. Because i thought this card made the whole Shrine cycle very much fun.

• 2013-09-11 12:45:42: Patrik Andersson edited Pillar of Iscandar:

  fixed wording.

• 2013-09-11 11:46:52: Alex commented on Knowledge Burst

  This is very similar to Stoic Rebuttal, which was also strictly better than Cancel. It didn't really warp anything and I doubt this will either (especially as it's hard to have three Shrines while also having double ).

  ­Cancel is the baseline, but Wizards are happy to be strictly better than it from time to time. Dissipate was recently reprinted on that principle too.

  Nice card! Delightful build-around-me for Johnny in draft or casual.

  I think this would be templated like Reflecting Pool... something like:

  > Shrines you control have ": Add to your mana pool one mana of any type that a Shrine you control could produce."

  (This will often be worse than Reflecting Pool, but that's really not a problem as that card was stupidly good in constructed alongside Vivid lands, pretty much single-handedly enabling some painful 5-colour control decks in tournaments. Being worse than Reflecting Pool is just fine.)

• 2013-09-11 11:42:46: Alex commented on Grave prospect

  This is less blunt than Tormod's Crypt, or Relic of Progenitus. It's a very specific hoser with specific timing requirements too. I don't think people would like it even if they wanted to hose graveyards, so it might fail to excite the target audience.

  I'd normally rather have Cremate.

• 2013-09-11 11:41:11: Alex commented on Century Beast

  Reminds me of Avenger of Zendikar. But rather than make the plants bigger it gets you some lands. Potentially quite a few lands if you've been using Arid Mesa and friends. I like it.

• 2013-09-11 11:40:21: Alex commented on Afterlife Druid

  Does this mean "When ~ ETBs, lavish 2"?

• 2013-09-11 11:38:58: Alex commented on Realm Blade

  This compares very favourably to Urza's Blueprints... except that this needs double blue to cast. This is like an Archivist with a Bitterblossom stapled to it, or a Honden of Seeing Winds with a Honden of Life's Web there too.

  I think there should be an activation cost. At , it's still rather better than Scepter of Insight, even before you consider playing other Elementals.

  I really like the card though. That kind of triggered ability is the kind of thing I love.

  This is another reprint, Turntimber Grove.
