Experiment One

Experiment One Query

Is it Experiment One, as in 'one who is an experiment', or Experiment One, as in 'the first experiment'?

Yes. : )

Experiment One

Evolve Mechanic Strategy

Do you feel its a problem that evolve is completely dependent on what you draw to trigger without undoing it in some way? Its REALLY hard to synergize with. Experiment One was coolest evolve creature because he could turn counters into something useful, then build up more, but the rest were pretty meh.

You can plan ahead with Evolve.

Ooze Planeswalker Possibility

Does Experiment One mean that an Ooze planeswalker is theoretically possible?

It is theoretically possible.

Missing Ooze Lord

Let me just say how sad I am right now that there was no Ooze lord in RTR block. We were given a one drop in Experiment One, a two drop with Scavenging Ooze, a three drop in Predator Ooze, Slime molding to to fill holes in our curve, and good old Acidic Slime as a five drop. Standard is screaming for an Ooze Lord. WAY TO DROP THE BALL! :P

I’ve already said publicly that I made a mistake not putting an ooze lord in Gatecrash.

Scaling Green Creatures

Creatures that "grow" to scale well later into the game (Gyre Sage, Quirion Dryad, Tarmogoyf, Experiment One, Predator Ooze etc.) is great. And as a green mage it's sometimes my only chance to keep up with other creature decks that have a better set of abilities, perks and similar. Is this primarily something you do in green? Regardless, please do more of it.

*/* is primary in green. Note that primary for this is a little different as we don’t tend to do */* at common.

Standard Guild Mechanics

Standard relevant guild mechanic cards: Ghor Clan Rampager (bloodrush), Firefist Striker, Frontline Medic (battalion), Rakdos Cackler (unleash), Varolz the Scar Striped (gives scavenge), Mizzium Mortars, Cyclonic Rift (Overload), Rootborn Defenses, Trostani, Selesnya's Voice (populate), Blind Obedience (extort, borderline). Evolve, Cipher and Detain have not produced standard-quality cards.

Experiment One (with evolve) has seen Standard play.

Evolve Mechanic Creator

Experiment One is a beautiful design. Kudos to whoever made it.

As I showed in my article on evolve - that would be Ethan Flesicher made during The Great Designer Search 2.

Slime Time Now

Experiment One - the slime for change is now. :3

Simic's New Start

Experiment Kraj was really "the final experiment" (from krajj, "the final number"). Does Experiment One mean that the Simic are starting over?

That’s a cool way to look at it.

Human Ooze High-Five

Experiment One: It's a human ooze! A HUMAN OOZE! Please high-five a random member of the creative team for this!

I just high-fived myself as I was the only Wizards member in the room. Simic has the most awesome creature types in this set.
