May I request a takklemaggot reprint?


I think the Rules Manager’s eye twitches every time you do. : )

Text-Heavy Cards

New 07 Sep 2014 Asked by aaronlovesmtg 23 Comments

Do you know what card outside of silver border has the most words of text on it?


There are a few candidates off the top of my head. Both Takklemaggot and Ice Cauldron have Oracle text that would not fit in the text box if printed.

Design Trade-offs

New 01 Dec 2012 Asked by dhemmann 4 Comments

Even though Animate Dead has very complicated rules it is a very easy card to grock. Is this a trade off that design is no longer willing to make? I'd love to see cards like Animate Dead, Takklemaggot, or Dance of Many again.


Here’s a hard but important lesson Magic designers have to learn. There are enough cool things that don’t cause problems that we have to not tilt at the windmills that do. That doesn’t mean we can’t push boundaries from time to time but the reasoning should be “we think this is important to the set” and not “but it would be cool”.

Takklemaggot Errata

New 20 Sep 2012 Asked by diovonkarma-deactivated20230302 2 Comments

Would it make sense to errata Takklemaggot's last ability into a curse?


If we did that kind of errata (which we don’t), sure.
