Unfinity Collector Requests

Hey Mark,

I want to thank you for giving Unfinity Collector Boosters a "list" slot. This is going to help me in my dream of making a fully foiled all un-card Commander deck (to get the best use of Super Secret Tech). I would like to request foil printings of: Timmy, Power Gamer; Strategy, Schmategy; Bronze Calendar; Jack-in-the-Mox; Checks and Balances; Common Courtesy; Free-for-All; Cheatyface; and Underdome.

In addition the following are really hard to get a hold of in foil and could use a reprint: Johnny, Combo Player; Who/What/When/Where/Why; Gleemax; Mox Lotus; City of Ass; Super Secret Tech.Thank you for all you've done for silly magic!

You’re welcome. I wish you the best of luck in your mission.

Unhinged Lands Clarification

In response to a previous Question Mark, Unhinged had both City of Ass and R&D's Secret Lair, both of which are (nonbasic) lands.

Darian and City of Ass

If I have Darian, King of Kjeldor out and tap City of Ass for Mana, do I get one half a soldier token?

You get a 1/1 token and a ½ / ½ token (think Little Girl).

Un-sets Mechanics

Un-rules question: say I control City of Ass and tap it to help pay for Strength of the Tajuru. For example, X = 3 1/2, how do I put 1/2 of a +1/+1 counter on a creature?

It’s basically a +½ / +½ counter.

Unhinged Ass Subtheme

Is the whole "Ass" sub theme in Unhinged made for making City of Ass?

No. City of Ass was actually the second last Ass card made.

City of Ass Errata

Do you have a suggested errata for City of Ass now that mana burn is gone, or is this just a case where a rules change makes a card much better?

The card’s just better. #WotCStaff

Using Un Colors

Can I use Un colours in normal magic? Lands that tap for any colour.. can I ask for them to be tapped for pink?

You can’t tap lands for Pink in silver border. The fact that Avatar of Me can be Pink doesn’t mean City of Ass can tap for Pink.

City of Ass Usage

Can you use City of Ass to make Radiant Flames do 5 damage, using half a White, half a Blue, half a Black, half Green, and the final Red?

You can.

Two-Brid Mana Issue

Another City of Ass question. If I tap City of Ass for a white mana and a half, then tap other land for three other mana, can I play Spectral Procession?

Two-brid mana can only be paid with a mana of the appropriate color or two generic mana. You cannot pay half a mana and one generic mana.

Unrules Mana Cost

Unrules question: If I tap City of Ass to pay for the phyrexian mana part on Dismember, do I only have to pay one life?

No, if you do not have all the mana, it costs 2 life.

Drawing Half a Card

With City of Ass and Fascination, how does one draw half of a card?

Very carefully. : )EDIT: Wizards Tumblr already answered this and with basically the same answer. Ooh, a new thing to try and avoid.

Un-sets and Mana Burn

Hi, the guy reading the Unhinged FAQTIWDAWCC again. Does the new rules regarding mana burn apply and thus the cards are a bit overpowered or we must abide by old rules? Do you believe that you got rid of mana burn so easily because in R&D you weren't using effects that could make mana burn a drawback?

The Un-sets follow the current rules so no mana burn. City of Ass got better.

City of Ass Mechanic

Does City of Ass mana still causes mana burn to make it fairer?

Nope. City of Ass just got stronger when mana burn went away,

City of Ass Mechanics

You recently answered that someone can use two half manas generated from City of Ass to cast a Dryad Militant. Follow up question: what if one of those half manas was white while the other was green? Could he still cast Dryad Militant?

Yep.

Cast City of Ass Dryad Dryad Militant Green White

Un-set Mana Query

Un-set rules question: If I have 2 City of Ass in play and tap 1 for 1 1/2 white mana, and tap the other for 1 1/2 green mana, may I combine the 2 half mana to play a Dryad Militant?

Yes.
