Legacy is a one time $1500 investment then you can play that deck forever. Trying to keep up with Standard is a bigger money sink imo.These boardstates, smdh. What ever happened to winning on turn 5 or 6? (That looks like good fun though, congrats.)
In other news, this RG Adventure Phoenix deck may be what I need to fill the Faithless Looting shaped hole in my heart: https://www.channelfireball.com/art...-with-arclight-phoenix-on-turn-1-in-standard/ If only it were a bit more competitive compared to all of the turbo over the top strategies that seem to be what's working in Standard.
If only I had $1500 laying around, I could go ahead and play Legacy Jund Phoenix where the ceiling is three (3!) Arclight Phoenixes attacking on turn 1, just as Richard Garfield intended.

just 1500?Legacy is a one time $1500 investment then you can play that deck forever. Trying to keep up with Standard is a bigger money sink imo.
Up front or all at once? Yeah that's a lot. But total what the average standard player spends in post rotation throwaway stuff in a year, then compare that to slowly buying the cards bit by bit over time for deck that you can play for a long, long time.
You can build a lot of non-blue Legacy decks for around $1000.

Their removal couldn't outpace my card draw and creature strength. My aggression couldn't get through their token generation and the few creatures they actually played. Which lead to us reenacting the arms race.
Looking at color alignment in a vacuum, making Rarity white-blue makes sense. In a full set of pony cards, they would probably add black so the Mane Six aren't all white aligned, yeah. Similarly, I'd make Twilight Jeskai (white-blue-red).
You can be generous for self-interested reasons.Uh, her Element of Harmony is Generosity. It's the complete opposite of black.
Im probably going to buy a sealed booster box today.
Anything I should look out for? Are they still giving out the collectors booster for buying a sealed box?
I believe the official release is tomorrow? (They were sold on prerelease weekend, but should not have been available after that.) You may want to call the store and ask if they still have the collector's boosters and if so, if you can put a hold on your box so you can secure one of the packs. At my store all the collector's boosters were gone after the prerelease, though.
I love this idea and wish the art for normal Magic was anywhere near this good :oLooking at color alignment in a vacuum, making Rarity white-blue makes sense.

The cards in question
Really neat designs, and I love the art, especially Twilight. Even outside of the MLP context, the legendary crowns are really nice looking.
Rarity caring about rarity is great.
Even as a silver-bordered card with an ability you currently can't actually use, I'd prefer if Twilight only had you and your friends win the game.

The one thing almost everyone praised in Throne so far is the art and you'd rather cards look like this?
Oh he loves yu gi oh art
my nipples always point towards magnetic north
Throne of Eldraine seems to be pretty good for value right now. That's the newest set.I stopped playing MTG like 8 years ago but recently started again after joining an IRL DnD group. I'm looking to purchase a couple bundles/fatpacks at the local gameshop this month. Doing that as opposed to buying individual cards and decks because I don't have many cards. Are there any specific recent sets with crazy-ass cards I should single out? Or is any set good to buy a bundle of?
WAR of the spark has a lot of good cards that see play in multiple formats and a guaranteed planeswalker in every pack. For building a casual collection, it's probably the best standard set to open overall.I stopped playing MTG like 8 years ago but recently started again after joining an IRL DnD group.

Thanks! I'm thinking I'll pick one of each, then.WAR of the spark has a lot of good cards that see play in multiple formats and a guaranteed planeswalker in every pack. For building a casual collection, it's probably the best standard set to open overall.
I love all of the alt art in this set tbhIt's not like Magic doesn't have cards that deviate from the default realistic style of recent years. People praise Seb McKinnons's more distinctive style to the high heavens (whether or not they overdo it is another matter), and the alt-adventure arts were similarly well received. I got the alt-Embereth Shieldbreaker at prerelease and everyone who saw it thought it looked great.
But not all cards work with this style, and they lose their novelty if they become the default rather than the exception. People like consistency for the most part but the few that deviate are the main subjects for praise.

Yeah, most of it is quite good.
