White Omniczech: I do like that this thing is a big old brick that does something pretty close to when it ETBs if you have board presence the turn it comes down. I’m not sure it fully passes the smell test for me though. Solset: I want to like this card as it has synergy…
First off, a small apology for the delay in the quick hits, in general we’ve been slow on this one as Duskmourn was hot off the back of our Modern Horizons 3 and Bloomburrow update, featuring arguably the most impactful set in years for a variety of formats, we have Duskmourn, which has… Personality? As…
White Omniczech: We’ve had access to Oblivion ring at common for ages, now we get the version with “fixed” text. I can’t wait to hear out opinions on this one. Solset: I think I am ok moving the curve up a bit fit for flexibility. With us having three 2 mana options that hit artifacts…

Role tokens: Casting certain spells or creatures entering the battlefield or dying may create a role token, one of several creature…
“Until morale improves the previews WILL continue” – Wizards of the Coast apparently. This one’s pretty nuts folks, let’s get into it. White Phizzled: I have been enamored of for quite a while now. I don’t think it’s a perfect answer, but like and , it offers future proofing for many questions the Cube could…
