White's Card Draw

New 22 Jan 2020 Asked by phelgster 72 Comments

Mr. Rosewater, please don't give White card draw. White is my favorite color. I acknowledge that it has shortcomings, but it is fully my belief that White's mechanical identity would not be helped through card draw. Instead, its shortcomings (namely card advantage) can be solved through other means. White has access to tools like Reveillark, Angel of Serenity, and Ignite the Beacon that can easily be used for card advantage instead of watering things down by simply adding cards to your hand.


Our goal is to solve white’s issues in a way that plays into what white cares about philosophically. We have no intent in undermining its weakness.

Angrath's Arrival

New 07 Apr 2019 Asked by gaiaix555 55 Comments

If I may ask, why is specifically Angrath on Ravnica? I would assume he would refuse a summons from across the planes for help when he JUST got freed from the Immortal Sun on Ixalan and was quick to planeswalk away back to his home plane (presumably). If “Ignite the Beacon” is supposed to be Ajani and co. calling across the planes for help, why would Angrath respond? In that same vein, why specifically is he still black? I understand part of it for him being a pirate, but he left that behind.


Bolas wanted to gather as many planeswalkers on Ravnica as he could do many, different plans were put in motion. Angrath is on Ravnica because Bolas figured out what would have to happen to make it so.
