Yo mama is amazing! (Unless she isnt, you have to decide I dont know her)

It’s gonna be good for a lot of tribal decks probably

Thought the same exact thing

Yippee. So much fun for everyone

I feel that it would have been better if your creatures also had toughness 1. It would have been lore relevant because it would cover everything even your own in darkness And can also do fun things in black sacrificing your own tiny creatures

Since it's green it's easy to have a ton of artifacts boardwhipes, also you can put a lot of regenerate spells with it so you can keep your board, that's cool as hell

It's kinda that the "once a turn" part really limits it's potential. The best way to compare it is to Heroic vs Valiant. Think of a card like Fabled Hero, and hitting it with something like Astral Steel. That turns Fabled Hero into a neat little combo piece BECAUSE of it's lack of limitations. Heroic was already a limiting thing as it needed to be TARGETED, meaning spells and abilities that say "Creatures you control..." don't trigger Valiant or Heroic. The addition of the words "or ability" really don't make the card much better than heroic and in the end, Valiant is just a neutered version of Heroic, with an upside that won't really matter all that much except for a few niche scenarios. An already meh ability becomes even more mundane. With your point on play pattern, that's the key thing. You WEREN'T limited to get one big creature with Heroic. You could, and often times would, but you didn't have too. The mechanic was left open-ended allowing you to either split up your heroic triggers or stacking them all on one big boy. Alania on the other hand is not really limited by her "First time" trigger because she is already quite powerful already, and if she didn't have that trigger she'd probably be a busted card. That's not the same thing as Valiant though, because you'd be comparing limiting a powerful ability from game-breaking to really good, versus limiting an already meh ability (While heroic was decent during Theros block, it wasn't super powerful by any means and didn't require any sort of limitations) to a pretty underwhelming ability.

he seems to have a cursory understanding of the game at best tbh. there are much better channels for deeper analysis of the game and its mechanics

Yup, if it wasn't once per turn it's a 2 card instant win combo. Better than the stupid bird. Imagine getting a lightning greaves and "all move get +1/+0 eot. You just do it till you have more power than the table and swing. It's all of 2 mana. If you get lucky and drop sol ring and greaves turn 1 it's over.

No. Three Tree City says to choose one "as it enters the battlefield"; This is not a triggered ability.

Its to fit the theme of the set, the animals foraging makes more sense than them "delving"

@@perinthia6829 eventually, it'll be too much for too many people and while nice to fit a theme, the overall health is more important. Now where is my alpha reprint?

also valiant is a nerfed heroic...

delve is a diferent way to pay the cost. foraging is a additional cost. so foraging is more like a variant of escape, since you can not only exile from grave as additional cost, but you can also sacrifice a food as additional cost instead of exiling from grave

⁠@@perinthia6829idgaf about flavor i just want to play the game without memorizing a bunch of different useless keywords. they need to stick to evergreen keywords and stop making so many clones

Yeh this is what I thought, is this right?! You can copy the first one of each of those card types, per turn?! Obviously sorceries and creatures (otters) can’t be played on opponent turns typically, but there are ways around this if you want to chase it…

cant make colorless though

@@312goblin colorless is a color

@@OfficerYeet “Rule 106.1a There are five colors of mana: white, blue, black, red, and green”. Colorless is not listed here. I guess you can still use it to cast the generic parts of a card but you’ll still need to have colorless sources

@@312goblin ur right. Still gonna add it for the yolo

But it can be used for Ulalek and the other 5 color eldrazi commander if ur running any colored eldrazi that dont have devoid

And then you only draw the servant because it's singleton 99 and you're not getting use out of it

@@nospoiler 😂😂😂 right?

How exactly do you run Academy Ruins in a Golgari deck?

@sapphiredraggytheflygon8521 my bad. Saw the mana generated by AR being colorless and assumed it was a colorless terrain... Yeah, remove Academy ruins from this list, but I still stand by the golgari artifact deck idea

mass artifact removal was also the first thing that came to my mind edit: imagine he was abzan colors. one sided boardwipe tribal anyone?

They’re literally rebuilding it for you

To take up less space on the card

Not really ...Three Tree City is more on par with Nykthos Shrine to Nyx or Cabal Coffers
