Storm Scale and Supplements

New 04 Dec 2012 Asked by kallixti 6 Comments

How does the Storm scale apply to supplemental products? Even storm has seen print there (the new Flusterstorm, plus the reprint Hunting Pack), but other high-stormscale mechanics (such as banding and phasing) haven't seen any reprints or new cards in supplemental products. Is there another scale for likeliness to see a mechanic return in supplemental products?


The Storm Scale is about being reprinted in sets that will be in Standard (expert expansions and core sets).  Could I make a scale about ever being reprinted? Maybe, but I’m only one man. There are only so many scales I can handle.

You keep talking about how storm is overpowered, and I tend to disagree. The problem is the cards printed - when you develop these cards, you just think "How bad is this if there are 20 copies every time?" and go from there. Wing Shards, Sprouting Vines, make for fine, fun limited cards. Flusterstorm, Hunting Pack, and Temporal Fissure (okay, maybe a version that cant hit lands) are all cards that are fun and not broken in standard. I do not see why storm could not come back with no combo cards.


You do understand that storm is the combo card. Also, if we have to nerf something so much to bring it to print, perhaps that’s a sign we’re not supposed to do it in the first place.
