Title: Not up to speed :D
Post by: Fenster on June 28, 2012, 10:34:25 AM
I dont really follow m13 spoilers very closely but i recently got the new Dotp. Anywho the first deck, blue one, has a creature in it that when it enters the bf it returns target sorc or instant from your gy. Anyone know this card?
It would work well with {Conjurer's closet} etc.

While it does cost 4..it does actually return it to your hand and doesn't exile it...so it's ok. But won't see as much play as snappy since he does cost 4.

Snappy is a pretty tough yard-stick to measure cards by.   ::)

Playing the DotP13 Talrand deck, I thought it did rather well.  It's one {U} more for a {Call to Mind} on legs.

Looks that way.

If nothing else it will for sure see play in EDH, and be bestest buds with {Mnemonic Wall}.

They are designing stuff 2 years ahead. It was designed in 2010, they were not thinking about banning JTMS yet, let alone Snapcaster.

Is that why M13 contains {Angel's Mercy}, {Evolving Wilds}, {Prey Upon}, {Walking Corpse}, {Divination}? They just got printed in Innistrad block.

You'd think they would have discussed it.

Ugh, really? {Evolving Wilds} is probably the worst slap in the face. They couldn't even have given us {Terramorphic Expanse} instead to let us pretend they weren't giving us the exact same thing immediately again.
