Birthday Card Trivia

Hey! Hope you are doing well. My ask got lost last week in the flurry of questions so I figured I would give it another shot. If you have a chance I would love some birthday trivia about either of my two favorite cards, "Hydroid Krasis" or "Growth Spiral".

Hydroid Krasis was designed with the idea that it was an X spell that was half blue/half green. That’s why you get half of X for each effect.Happy Belated Birthday!

Multicolor Cards Rarity

Hi Mark, premier sets typically have only one cycle of multicoloured cards at lower rarities, usually uncommon creatures for the draft archetypes. Why is that?I feel like simple and fun cards like Electrolyze or Growth Spiral are now only printed in multicolour sets because of this "one cycle" restriction.

The restriction doesn’t come from having a default number of cycles. We only put multicolor cards at common when there’s a mana base to support it, which usually only happens in multicolor sets.

Outlook on Simic's Identity

I was really excited to see Simic's "rebranding" with Ravnica Allegiance (growth Spiral, frilled mystic and hydroid krasis were suuuuper exciting to me when they were spoiled). Since then we've had oko, ice-fang coatl, and uro. Where do you think Simic's identity is landing?

Simic; the guild, and green/blue the color combination are not synonymous. Simic is one take on green/blue, but there are many other possibilities of how to express that color combination.

Simic Mechanic Praise

Hey Maro! Just wanted to say I think you're doing a great job! I'm a simic player and I'm also a huge fan of Monstrosity, so while its not as splashy or imaginative as graft, it feels exactly on par with other guild mechanics this round, and very simic. I ALSO like the tweaks. Feels like it helps the mechanic fit the guild flavor more. I'm SUPER hyped for Growth Spiral. I've wanted a card like this in UG basically since I discovered multicolor cards. Thank you so much!

Thanks. I hope you enjoy all the Simic goodies once you get your hands on them.
