Moreso than Expeditions or Colorless Mana, just all around a joke. I'll do my best not to rant (but it's pretty hard to contain my thoughts to just a few sentences).ġ.) Gimmicky as fuck. I think the damning point is going to be their near absence from limited play, though-if people can't try them at the prereleases or play them in draft, they're not going to care. ![]() I feel like these are going to be just as bad if not worse in that department while barely showing up in the set and not being particularly strong at first blush so I'm concerned for the execution. I don't hate DFCs but I heavily dislike their mechanical clunkiness. This isn't "I Tinkered out a Dreadnought and it got Doombladed" it's "I drew multiple cards and paid a bunch of mana and got blown out". The fact that only Brisela has any sort of protection-and it's very limited-makes me think there's going to be a lot of feel-bad 2 for 1s with these. I'm not sure there's a slot for a 7-mana, un-tutorable, win-more card right now, though. Gisela is a solid beater and I expect her to see play but I could also see her being Drana 2.0-at least W/x aggro is a deck so that's in her favor. If you want to jump through hoops to get your 5-mana beater, Westvale Abbey and Reality Smasher seem as strong or stronger while requiring fewer hoops. Township is good but would be a lot better as a 4/7 and I'm not sure it's worth 5-mana.īrief aside-this format has Avacyn for 5-mana who just blows both of those two out of the water. The Garrison seems strong, especially with the 3-butt but one 3/x on your opponents side completely neuters it and doesn't seem unreasonable to expect. Even if it were or becomes, I don't think 2-mana reusable haste is good enough to see play on its own. While Chittering Host is quite strong-the Rats are filler that you would pick up late after already having Scavengers and Scavengers is an over-costed, under-powered Gravedigger.īoth Hanweir cards seem like they'd fit best in mono-red (because a colorless land that requires red to activate strains your mana) and that's not a deck right now. Only one pair is limited playable due to rarity. It's only on three (six) cards so they're really hedging with it. ![]() Beyond being cool and splashy, the individual designs are very clever and well thought out. So in short, I love all three instances of meld we have. The fact that Gisela is very playable on her own is just the cherry on top. Wizards really understands how important resilience is to actually pulling Meld off. I love that the half you cast first (Gisela, the Broken Blade) is recurred right into play by the half you play second (Bruna, the Fading Light). Brisela, Voice of Nightmares is the hardest to pull off in any environment, but it's so big and splashy that it's going to feel great when you pull it off.One half being a land adds some resilience and makes it very easy to slot into decks that want Hanweir Garrison anyway. Both front faces seem very playable on their own, which is what's most important. Hanweir, the Writhing Township is easily my favourite.Midnight Scavengers even recurs Graf Rats, which is some very relevant redundancy. Both front sides are at common and fine on their own, and there's the chance that you can live the dream and get both. Chittering Host seems pretty limited playable.I could see it being clunky in high numbers, but all three implementations are something I like. r/magicTCG is not produced, endorsed, supported by, or affiliated with Wizards of the Coast.
