I'm with juni, and terminus is still floating around.

No. As far as I can tell you can only Fuse if you are casting it from your hand. If it's imprinted on Scepter you just pick one side, if you cascade into it you just pick one side, if you give it flashback with Snapcaster you just pick one side.

Is it just me or is it kind of lame to see this kind of hoser card a mythic? Both deathrite shaman and cavern of souls were great hoser cards at a Rare rarity. The article points to them as similar cards to VoR. Just think it would have been better at Rare.

Mana Rock3 Artifact Tap, add one mana to your pool of guild color. Both Guild Color, Sac, draw a card. One for each guild.

I understand that a set of cards like this is good for limited, but I always hope for interesting uncommons and these are taking up 10 slots in a small set

I'd be up for a reprint of Fellwar Stone. I used to always run some, even if just for some colorless...especially in my Artifact decks  ~MM Edit: Original art, of course! __________________ Blah, blah, blah werewolf.

thats kinda cheaty.
10/4/2004 The ability can be activated if the opponent has no lands that produce mana, but the effect will not be able to generate any mana. 10/1/2009 The colors of mana are white, blue, black, red, and green. Fellwar Stone can't be tapped for colorless mana, even if a land an opponent controls could produce colorless mana. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."[16:17] <@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for?

Don't be so literal dude. I would make a color...we'll say green. Then use it in my colorless cost of my white spell. Didn't think I'd have to spell it out, but... ~MM __________________ Blah, blah, blah werewolf. Smackity-smack not a werewolf. Suspicious of this fruit loop.

Technically that means that you can't play it in a colorless edh deck because you can't make colorless mana with it __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 12000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario and Canada 9th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs

In EDH, you aren't forbidden from using an effect that generated mana coloured outside your commander's colour identity. If you were playing a U/G commander and took control of someone's swamp, you can still tap it.All that happens is when it tries to add an illegal colour of mana to your mana pool, it adds colourless instead. So the Fellwar Stone can tap for say, green, and then the underlying rules of the game change it to colourless as it comes into your mana pool.

Trying to cram all ten guilds into a small set is going to end up causing a lot of these scenarios where a cycle is necessary for limited, but eats up a ton of slots. __________________ Wisconsin - smells like dairy air!I collect Granite Gargoyles. Send them my way.

~Plasm Capture UUGG Instant Counter target spell. At the beginning of your next precombat main phase, add X mana in any combination of colors to your mana pool, where X is that spell’s converted mana cost.

Agreed. It's not on par with gaddock teeg or thalia.

I agree 100%. I'd also MUCH rather be playing a Thalia, Cannonist, or Gaddock Teeg turn 2 in Modern/Legacy. Those creatures make an instant impact on your opponent. This, as you said, is more or less a slightly better version than Abolisher....which sees NO play.

Sorry for being party pooper again, but I honestly fail to see how great it is.  It seems like you need to have a lot of things right for it to be busted. You need to have creatures that are worthwhile to be blinked out in play, a board wipe spell in hand, plus a stalemate situation for it to be busted. Missing any one of those, and you will not be getting your money worth. It could act as an insurance against opponent's board wipe spells, but keeping 2 mana open all the time for that seems kind of meh', especially if you are running a creature deck. I guess it is still half of an honor of the pure when the blink is not relevant. :/ __________________ (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

I actually think it is at very least a good sideboard card, and could be a solid maindeck card, broken or busted though, that I don't see, but being able to save your army, or maybe blink guys with comes into play abilites is defintily useful. I think there is potential here.

Unless I am misreading the card, it exiles itself and does not return. This makes it a one shot effect that can be powerful but I wouldn't consider it busted. quote: Originally posted by revenger: Blood Baron of Vizkopa is going to be a bomb in limited imo. And I personally like Deadbridge Chant.
The chant has me considering a graveyard based EDH deck for the first time since Shards block. I like it!

I tend to agree here. I think I'd rather just have a Boros Charm than this card. It saves you from Supreme Verdict (and most removal for that matter) just the same.

Yes, Terminus is still around. Only one card. The versatility of Boros Charm trumps this new enchantment in my opinion. The buff is nice obv, but so is the option of double strike on the Charm.
