Fortune Thief Break

Is Fortune Thief considered a break?

The card was a throwback to Ali from Cairo from Arabian Nights. It’s not a red ability.

Cycle Discovery

Wait, from your article I can see that Weathered Bodyguards, Vesuvan Shapeshifter, Liege of the Pit, Fortune Thief and Thelonite Hermit are a cycle? The things I get to learn here after all these years still amaze me.

It’s part of why I write about design. We spend a lot of time on it and not everything we’ve done is instantly apparent.

Red's Worship Effect

New • 14 Jul 2019 • Asked by suigenyukiouji • 22 Comments

Can red ever do the Worship effect on a creature again? (Ali from Cairo and Fortune Thief are the two existent cards) It sort of fits into red's 'living on the edge of loss' theme that the red extra turn cards have.

The two cards you’re referencing are a card from early Magic before the color pie had solidified and a Time Spiral card referencing it as a tribute to the game’s past. The ability has never actually been in red’s slice of the color pie.
