It's parsed as "a (creature or planeswalker)", there's no need for two articles.

>>46035003
cant you just react to that with a bolt ?
>>
>>46035129
But can you really do that since they're two distinct objects and planeswalker could (theoretically) have "the" in front if it?
>>
>>46035103

"a" is connected to both nouns by "or". You could place another "a", placing another one would just be redundant.
>>
>>46035080

Descend upon the sinful is a car designed to do well in standard, that's why it's mythic

Whereas Odric here is just edh fodder, ergo he was gonna be $1 at any rarity, might as well save the mythic slots for cards that will sell packs

"The" is a definite article, there would need to be a specific planeswalker identified beforehand.

the counter is a cost. after the walker resolves its controller gets priority, activating the ability puts her at 4 loyalty before anyone gets priority again

The card makes playing planeswalkers worse for your opponent especially if you're delirious already. Also, the rarity affects limited. If a lot of "sac your mythic" was floating around at incoming in sealed/draft, then playing your walkers against Bx decks would be pointless.

So why does WotC slob on Beleren's knob as sloppily as they do? I know blue is their favorite color, but the other blue planeswalkers haven't seen anywhere near the amount of different versions as Jace has.

Is Jace the ultimate Gary Sue due to mindmagic?

Jace has been the poster-boy of magic for a while now.
>>
>>46035969

Jace is literally the most popular planeswalker.

Remember, the typical MtG fan
1) Doesn't read the novels.
2) Barely knows the lore beyond what might get explained to them at FNM.
3) Hasn't been immersed in ANY kind of fiction very deeply.

"Badass mindmage who is smart and cool and does smart things in a hoodie" is still cool to them, and that's Jace.
>>
>>46036018
Yeah, Jace was designed from the outset to appeal to the typical magic player.

And to be fair, his stories have been some of the best once they started doing that on the website.
>>
>>46035757
>a) She's already in official art
As were both Jace and Ugin in BFZ. What's your point?

>b) She hasn't had a card since AVR, while Ugin had a card two sets before BFZ, and Jace has a card all the fucking time
Irrelevant.

>And most importantly c)
>THE NEXT SET HAS MOON IN THE GODDAMN NAME
And a lot of sets have had "Zendikar" in their name without Nahiri showing up in them. Your point? Sarkhan didn't show up in Dragon's Maze, but it mentioned dragons.
>>
>All colors getting toys
>Blue still shit

vigilance? on red/green?

weird.
>>
>>46035816
Jace was pretty goddamn central to the plot of BFZ, given that he was the only one who knew how to imprison Ulamog, and, once that failed, the one who came up with the plan to kill the Titans.
>>
>>46036018
in all fairness, the uncharted realms with kelly digges writing jace has made him into the nerd mage who barely keeps his spaghetti out of sight, which is a pretty endearing character.
>>
>>46036018
I don't read the novels (because I'm a hundred percent sure they're trash), and I don't find it very appealing as a character. Tamiyo, Tezzeret, Liliana, even Nissa are more interesting. Jace just seems like a smug can't-do-no-wrong know-it-all from the flavor text and the glimpses of the universe I get from reading some articles.
>>
>>46036086
Eldritch Moon is about the moon, Dragon's Maze was not about dragons

The inclusion of skulk is going to be great for my Doran Deck, which is already running Concerted Effort.

>>46036101

>>
>>46035969
>Hell no other single planeswalker has gotten as much involvement in multiple plots like he has.
Jace has been involved in four plots now: Original Zendikar, Return to Ravnica, Battle for Zendikar, and Shadows Over Innistrad.

Sorin has been involved in the same number of plots: Original Zendikar, Original Innistrad, Khans of Tarkir, Shadows Over Innistrad.

Elspeth, Sarkhan, and Gideon have been involved in three plots each, only one fewer than Jace and Sorin.
>>
>>46036114
Vigilance is secondary in green, it just doesn't show up that often.
>>
>>46036162
Until we know what it does....Blue is shit
>>
>>46036018

To be fair, all the planeswalkers still around kind of suck. Including Sorin.
>>
>>46036114
Vigilance is secondary/tertiary(?) in green, so they can have it at rare or mythic and occasionally lower if it fits

>>
>>46036018
The fact that his printed cards are typically pretty powerful also contribute to him being popular I imagine.
Jace has the strongest brand of any planeswalker. You know that if you're getting Jace walker card, you can probably rely on it. Quality you can trust.

Arlinn is a little like a swiss army knife: it CAN do a lot of shit, but have you ever tried using most of those options? The corkscrew is a pain, the can opener takes forever and a day to open anything, and the knife blade itself isn't particularly good either.

Arlinn's +1 doesn't protect her on an empty field, her token generating ability leaves her in Bolt range and deprives you over her unflipped +1, her flipped +1 is mediocre to poor unless you're already overextended, her Bolt ability puts you back into the position of having no really good way to defend her, her emblem is kind of a joke, and you can't necessarily count on being able to use the ability you want the turn you want it because you can only use either side's abilities once a turn. So if the wrong side's up, you're shit out of luck.

Eclectic as fuck abilities that individually aren't up to snuff, and inconsistent because of its transformation triggers.

What.

Not everything could be in black, okay. Werewolves had to settle for green/red and spirits are blue/white. If it makes you feel better, white spirits tend to be benevolent while blue spirits are mischevious.

They fuck up massively on his flavor test for some reason. He's always depicted as a smug, know-it-all asshole when in truth he's just an insecure kid that's constantly out of his depth.
>>
>>46037189
>>46037295
Prowess isn't a static ability.
>>
>>46037375
it's at the start of combat so only instants could be activated. Prowess and skulk are sort of opposing abilities in some ways. I hope we get a creature with both

>Werewolf Planeswalker
Oh Yes, this pleases me

>>46037392
but he's also a telepath and a nerd, so he's good at faking being in his depth.

I'd love a scene with him and tamiyo or chandra or someone he's been high and might at where he just breaks down and admits he doesn't know shit and spends like 75% of his effort faking it.

To the point where the people who read his flavour text think 'man, what an asshole.'
>>
>>46037494
Honestly, I think it's a fuckup because it has every evergreen ability on it except prowess - plus skulk which might be the missing evergreen UB keyword.

Teysa is the most flavorful for spirit tribal and she's unable to use the spirit Lord effects. It's shit.

I want him to trick people into thinking he has more powers than he actually has, like tricking those cultists on Zendikar into thinking he was casting fire spells by using illusions

There are some good 2 drop spirits, the problem is they all fit better as sideboard tech or in D&T

I figured it was to prevent immerwolf from allowing her to bolt every turn.

oh yeah, I forgot they retconned it so that Niv was fascinated by other dragons instead of killing them all off so that he could be the only one.

Little Anafenza is also a spirit.

Ideally though, you'd be able to play only spirits with flying so you could run Favorable Winds as an anthem for your huge army of flying hexproof creatures.

>tyrant Avacyn and her magnificent betrayals

Reads a bit oddly.

Avacyn would have to actually show up in person in the middle of the day, execute one persona horribly and then fly off, and do that all over the country in order for her corruption to be believed.

Otherwise, the wall is probably warded as heavily as they could arrange. Which would stop geists and could stop flyers.
>>
>>46037753
The end of the gatewatch book had other dragons being born from dormant eggs. Niv killed one but then nephilim showed up so he fucked off before finishing the job and that's why hypersonic exists.
>>
>>46037874
Pardon, guildpact not gatewatch

>>46037651
They're clearly going for a lower-power Standard.

Not every card has to be Legacy-playable

Flashing in an Eidolon of Rhetoric sounds like fun.

Topplegeist should also work well for this Standard. Flash it in, tap down a creature, then try to activate Delirium as fast as possible for a better lock

i thought the lore is that he killed off all the other guilds dragons. probably wanted direct control over them.

>>46037953
oh, heres' a rules question.

someone bolts your creature, in response you flash in Kira, would the bolt still be countered as kira's trigger wasn't there when bolt was first cast, or would the ability still trigger?
>>
>>46038050
The ability would still trigger.
>>
>>46038050
You'd have to flash it in before they declared a target for it to trigger, but then they'd just bolt you in the face
>>
>>46038050
no trigger.
>>
>>46038014
actually Eidolon of Rhetoric can't counter anything, can he?
spells already cast are already cast

contradicting answers.

I assumed it wouldn't trigger, as you have already set a target before the target had the ability.


but my knowledge of the stack and triggers/resolving is shaky at best
>>
>>46038137
yes, but you can flash him in in response to the first spell a turn and be guaranteed no removal or follow-up aside from maybe a counter
>>
>>46038050
Think kira resolving as adding extra text to the card.
The text was not there when it was originally targeted so no trigger.
>>
>>46037227

Doom Blade still exists
>>
>>46037762
Show your alters, fag.
>>
>>46038050
You get no trigger. Kira gives your creatures an ability that will trigger the moment Bolt is cast. Responding to the Bolt is too late because the creature already became a target.

That was what he was before, too.
Unfortunately, it's hard to see that because it was all in the books that nobody read, and the flavor text attributed to him is basically an entirely different character.

Easy to trigger ones, ones that protect themselves, or most likely whatever commons you manage to get for your draft deck running neglected heirloom

Drogskol Captain

>>46038388
>>46038396
Play around counters, gives you more options to punish people for tapping out.

If you cast him eot then untap you could potentially represent protection before your opponent untaps his land.

>>46038316

And everything costs too much mana again so the block doesn't sell and Wizards once more assume people just don't like Kamigawa.
