Defending Goblin Test Pilot

New 13 Apr 2013 Asked by manelson73 14 Comments

Do all the people hatin' on Goblin Test Pilot get this up-in-arms about every Pillarfield Ox and Urban Burgeoning? I mean, do they expect every card to beat out Snapcaster Mage or Thragtusk in level of expert play mode? Let the Johnnies have their little cards. It's not like the true spikes aren't going to limit their viable playing pool to 2% of the cards in standard anyway! Anyway, adventurous people will play this in limited, Johnnies will put it in decks. I promise.


Goblin Test Pilot will see plenty of play just not in tournament venues. Many people forget that the majority of Magic play isn’t at high level tournament-quality events.
