Enduring Renewal

Author: slookin Categories: Card of Day


Enduring Renewal
Ice Age rare. When Enduring Renewal was printed as a Timeshifted card in Time Spiral, R&D playtested it with Soul Warden and Wild Cantor to see if it was too risky. Players did them one better, replacing Wild Cantor with Saffi Eriksdotter and Crypt Champion to generate infinite life.

Eternal Dominion

Eternal Dominion
Saviors of Kamigawa rare. Two quick facts about Epic: 1) The playtest name for “Epic” was “All-In.” 2) The teaser advertising campaign for Saviors of Kamigawa showed the art for Epic spells along with the question, “If you could only cast one spell for the rest of your life, what would it be?”

Rewind

Rewind
Urza’s Saga common. The “untap up to X lands” mechanic proved to be more powerful than R&D had anticipated. Once players combined it with lands that could generate more than one mana (like Tolarian Academy), there were cases of people playing Frantic Search and not even bothering to draw and discard, just so they could untap lands.

Mind Maggots

Mind Maggots
Exodus uncommon. Mind Maggots works very similarly to Shards of Alara’s Devour mechanic. The only difference is that the maggots are devouring cards before they’re even played. They must be hungry!

Genesis

Author: slookin Categories: Card of Day


Genesis
Judgment rare. Genesis works wonders in a reanimation deck for two reasons. First, it works from the graveyard instead of being in play or in a player’s hand where it’s more vulnerable to attack. Second, if it runs out of targets, it can always return itself to be played again.

Goblin Mountaineer

Goblin Mountaineer
Shards of Alara common. Jund goblins have the same short lifespans as most other goblins in the multiverse. The difference is that on Jund, they die on purpose, aspiring to nothing more than to be eaten by a dragon.

Jund Battlemage

Author: slookin Categories: Card of Day


Jund Battlemage
Shards of Alara uncommon. Jund is the only shard to contain both green and black mana. And since the battlemage stands poised between life and death, he can cause either one, reducing a player’s life total or bringing forth Saprolings.

MTG: Загадка Total рейтинга.

Author: slookin Categories: MTG news

Новости сайта TCG UA

Недавно была анонсирована информация о том, что на смену разнообразным DCI рейтингам приходит одна единая система, в которой рейтинг игрока будет определяться по его единственному Total рейтингу. Уже сегодня украинские игроки могут узнать свой Total rating. Глядя на данные значения, не до конца становится понятным, каким же образом он рассчитывался… Например бросается в глаза, что на первом месте находится Александр Герасименко - единственный двухкратный чемпион Украины. При этом значение его рейтинга превы�?ает как Constructed так и Limited рейтинги.Предлагаем посетителям на�?его ресурса обсудить загадки, которые предлагает нам Total рейтинг.
