Just another comment, the Angel not flying makes sense in the lore. They move fast, but rarely actually use their wings as more than decoration or intimidation, or a means of balancing once they're frozen in place. Plus, freezing in the middle of the air is a sure way to go crunching to the ground.

I am the Lorax I speak for the trees, How can standard be healthy full of Rakdos disease? Where's my hydras, elves and treefolk to boot? I live for a world where they yell "I AM GROOT." I dream of a world where Crim sweats in his sleep, the return of Nissa this time with hexproof a slight power creep. In short I hope my plight can be seen, I hope that someday my lands tap for Green.

Failure!

Rankle's Prank is so close to being a Pox card, just without the land destruction which is sometimes the most compelling part, but I think a lot of decks will still love that much resource denial

the end is a masterclass of the difference between an instant and a sorcery. eradicate is literally an old kamigawa uncommon that saw zero play with basically the same textbox minus the timing restriction of the card.

Thank you GF crew for posting the podcast on Labor Day! You all put out the most and best mtg content quite literally in the entire world. Thank you thank you for all the work you do!! It improves my life greatly 😊😊😊

7:10 I always love reminders of cost and effects of cards talked about since i tend to listen and not watch the video so being able to know the card is great help. You do this almost every time and i appreciate that.

In reference to them talking about the trading aspect of this game. I made a decision Long ago to never trade again because I lost so much value because I got scammed by other players. It turned me into the player that just wants to beat you on the other side of the table and I might shake your hand. I love this game. But most of the patrons are complete tools. To anyone that watches these pod casts or follows magic in general. One good tip I can offer you. Never and I mean NEVER. Trade lands. Lands are and always will be the most expensive part of your deck. If you have lands. Hold on to them because you’ll find out real quick that other players are not willing to part with them. There is a reason for that.

Regarding trading, it's still very much a thing. At my fnm, basically everyone brings a trade binder and people trade between rounds all the time.

This comment can be interpreted as legitimate love or sarcasm. Which makes it S tier bait.

I think the part about The End that impressed me that it doesnt seem like anyone is talking about is the fact that its black exile removal at instant speed that has an upside that mitigates for the cost. There's been plenty of exile removal in white for a while, and that was a big downside for black removal comparatively. So, I think that's the baseline that pushes The End into usefulness, with the memoricide text being secondary (though hitting the yard is also quite useful).

I watched several fairy decks & my takeaway from it is Talion is WAY better than people thought & that you can play the same faerie deck as control or as aggro depending on the matchup, but you never really want to play it hit-for-hit midrange style. I like how unique it is, but it seems like a low A tier/high B tier deck to me. Edit: Worth remembering that there aren't a huge number of flyers in standard either -- so that matters for this deck too.

I think The End can really make people change the way they build decks. For me, the busted thing about it is The End is in black, same color as Beseech the Mirror. The idea that you can fetch The End and never spend more than 4 mana to have the same effect is very efficient.

That card not being called "Rankle's Prankles" is this set's greatest sin

Is there a way to make an opponents land a creature in standard or historic? Because casting The End on a basic is very sweet vs certain decks.

"Whats the pay off for all the rats" Impact Tremors and Raid Bombardment were both reprinted in this set. Either one of those will make having a handful of 1/1s extremely lethal extremely fast. Oh and they also gave us other rat cards paired in red? Ya I think that was the thing they were going for. It black red aggro rats. Just playing the tokens will take out half of the other player's health before attacking. And if they destroy your enchantment, at least yous till have a swarm of rats to attack them with.

hey, I really like stickers! the trick is to give your commander a funny name, then your opponents won't ever dare destroy it :)

Rankle's Prank feels like it should see play it's good enough that I could use a copy for a EDH at least. The End is different from Eradicate as it hit's black creatures which is huge and is an instant and hits planeswalkers and has reduced cost when you're low which probably makes it playable I don't know that I believe it saves you against aggro decks I think if you're on 5 in an aggro match up and your 4 drop hits one creature you're probably dead anyways but I buy that it might not get sideboarded out completely against aggro because it still hits what you're worried about and is still instant speed removal. Trading makes sense when cards are worthless or borderline worthless. When card value is a big deal(and becomes how Wizards sells their product ie Masters sets, Secret Lairs, Reserve listing and other methods to limit availability) trading became scamming because cards cost too much unless both people used online sources to check(at which point you could just order them online) and therefore is just bad for the average person.

On the trading topic, the thing is player collections have been decimated because of extremely poor decisions from higher ups (driven by greed). First of all, keeping a binder full of modern cards isn't wise anymore because your cards are guaranteed to lose value. So players are now encouraged to dump / sell the staples they don't use before they become bulk. Secondly, trading becomes insanely dumb when the borderless mythic you opened at the prerelease is worth the exact same as an uncommon, and when your playset of Karn Liberated isn't worth 1 copy of The One Ring. Why would anyone engage in trading? The values don't make sense because the secondary market is extremely unhealthy right now. This is not a good thing at all because trading and collecting are essential aspects and major appeals of any worthwhile TCG. It's the reason why MTG lasted for 3 decades. If trading / collecting disappears completely, people will turn to other TCGs and they're already doing so with F&B, Sorcery and Lorcana etc.

it's a Stone statue

There is innkeeper in the set. It's the XXUU enchantment. Seth always says enchantments are harder to remove than creatures but when there's an innkeeper enchantment, now the card doesn't exist or it's "weird" and "fringe". 😅

So many crazy enchantments in WoE, probably good that Invoke Despair was banned or else the whole meta would centralize and tighten around that even further

Can somebody explain why every second person is obsessed with faeries? I get it that people like them, and I don’t say them shouldn’t, but it seems statically a lot. Is it because they like the flavor or the mechanics, and if they are not the seem as lorwyn faeries?
