Cannons to Port Quest The next time you deal combat damage to the player on your left, draw a card.

When Legacy was a brand new format, one of the things that I was worried about was that some old, expensive cards not on the Ban List would take over the format and make it too expensive for most players. The cards I had in mind were things like Moat, The Abyss, Nether Void, and Candelabra of...

UUD, Island, attack with Strangleroot Geist, blockers?

I blame Tolarian Academy and the "Combo Winter" of 1998 and 1999. We've now got decades of history of combo decks and their performance across many formats. Sometimes a combo deck is too strong and something needs to be banned. Sometimes combo decks are major contenders in formats. But a lot of...

Vampires and merfolk, you say? So Melkor is my main threat? Got it. :p

Deceiver Exarch does a pretty good Pestermite impression, if it'd benefit you to have two copies of that effect.

So there's a Ban List keeping cards out of Modern. There's also a set cutoff, and older unreprinted cards are excluded from Modern. And then there are these... All of those were printed way after the 2003 cutoff for Modern. A few of them are reprints, but most of them were originally printed...

Looks like Gatherer now has a note to this effect, so I'm guessing it was a common question...

Once the Soulbond is broken, Deadeye Navigator is no longer paired with anything and can establish a new bond to Peregrine Drake when Peregrine Drake enters the battlefield. Soulbond says "you may pair this with another unpaired creature when either enters the battlefield." This interaction...

As was emphasized all those years ago when WotC first introduced the Modern format as an experiment, the starting point is arbitrary. There's no objectively perfect answer, and different points would have their own strengths and weaknesses. As a Legacy enthusiast, perhaps my "I want to play with...

Yep, looks that way.

Your Talisman of Obsidian automatically works if you're adjacent to him.

I haven't forgotten about this, but I still don't have a decklist ready. Here's what I'm looking at for now. Need to trim it down and refine it... 1x Abyssal Gatekeeper 1x Academy Rector 1x Academy Ruins 1x Acquire 1x All Is Dust 1x Anguished Unmaking 1x Animate Dead 1x Arcane Denial 1x Arcane...

EOT use Evolving Wilds to fetch Forest. UUD, Forest, Strangleroot Geist, attack with it. Blockers?
