Flavor Judge Errata

If/when errata flavor judge to care about what the person you ask thinks instead of what they say so they can’t help you cheat by lying.

It doesn’t need that errata. Lying is against the rules now.

Truss and ABC's Interaction

flavor judge! how does Truss interact with Now I Know My ABC's? Will changing "twenty-six" to another number change the number of letters needed to win?

Truss can’t change facts. All the letters in the English alphabet is still twenty-six. The “all” is the part getting in your way.

New Flavor Draft Judges

I'm happy the Pro Tour is back and even happier to hear that all tournaments will use the Flavor Draft format. Any thoughts on this change? I bet it's been tricky to train all the judges.

It’s why we made Flavor Judge to help players and judges start practicing.

Rewarding Story Knowledge Mechanic

Is it possible to design a card that mechanically rewards players who know a lot about magic's story? Maybe in silver border? Maybe some kind of mtg lore equivalent of Flavor Judge?

Some day.

Prospect of White Countermagic

Counterspells have been in white's color pie for a little while now but we haven't seen a new monowhite counterspell (not counting the wonderful Flavor Judge) in over a decade. Should we expect more white countermagic in the near future?

Just because a color is allowed to do something doesn’t mean the cards get made.

Appreciation for 'Unsanctioned' Game Format

I LOVE UNSANCTIONED! Especially Flavor Judge (aka Vorthos's UnCard) since I invented a Format like it during Onslaught! I felt that Remove Soul shouldn't counter Soulless One, Akroma's Vengeance shouldn't destroy her or Ixidor, Lay Waste shouldn't destroy Wasteland, etc. You can choose to play Flavor(or flip a coin)before any game. You all must agree on something making sense(Like Borborygmos wielding Chariot Of Victory as a fist weapon)or it happens normally. Try it, all my play groups love it!

Happy to hear that.

Flavor Judge Card Appreciation

Hey Mark, thanks for Flavor Judge, love the card as it reminds me of my dads roster he had in the country. Thanks!! :)

Happy to hear all the positive things about the new Unsanctioned cards.

Flavor Judge Analysis

Mark, Flavor Judge's ability is a bend or a beak in White? I know that un-sets have a higher degree of freedom but they can't fly too far away from the color pie, right?

It’s not a bend or break. White’s good at protecting things.

Flavor Judge Type

How come the Flavor Judge isn't creature type chicken? I would like more chickens for my Chicken a la King deck! I was excited to see a new chicken card only to have my hopes and dreams dashed. Also Seasoned Weaponsmith from the Mystery Boosters should be one too!

All Chickens, including Chicken-a-la-King’s rules text, have been errataed to Bird.

Flavor Judge Background

Mark! I really love white cards and advisors, so I'm very happy with Flavor Judge! Where are advisors on the Beeble Scale? And what's the flavor of Flavor Judge?

I think we’ll see other Advisors. Flavor Judge is just a chicken that really enjoys both the structure and creative of the game.

Errata to Birds

Wait, Flavor Judge is a Bird, not a Chicken? I also notice Poultrygeist, Free-Range Chicken, and Chicken à la King are reprinted, but not Mesa Chicken. Trying to keep Chickens from being spread across 4 colors?

Chickens have officially all been errataed to Bird. That means Chicken-a-la-King ( which is in Unsanctioned) just got a lot stronger.

Prerelease Victory

Hello Mark, I won the prerelease at my LGS and I loved the new set, energy is very fun, vehicles are both fun and tricky while the flavor in the set and each color's identity is flawless. As a flavor judge and a player I had a very good experience.
