Hey Mark, got a question about the new Modal Lands like Riverglide Pathway, if I have Crucible of Worlds can I play either side from the grave or only the "face" side?

Cards that let you play them let you play either side.

Spike is supposed to be able to get cards previously banned? Your list on your faq has none of the unbanned commander cards. From what i can tell your missing Protean Hulk, Kokusho, the Evening Star, Staff of Domination, Riftsweeper, Crucible of Worlds, Test of Endurance, Beacon of Immortaility

Anything ever banned officially in Commander counts.

My favorite thing in Magic in 2016 was pulling a Crucible of Worlds from my very first Kaladesh pack in the pre-release. My second favorite was drafting the set. Maro, I want to take a moment to say that while I agree with many of the grievances about the current standard (not enough good answers being the biggest), I definitely think Kaladesh itself is a really cool set, and in my opinion you should feel vindicated for your "The Awesome Set" hype.

I’m very happy with how Kaladesh both turned out and was received.

would it be possible to do a judge foil planeswalker in old-border style? i know it was done with Crucible of Worlds but i'm wondering if a planeswalker would work.

New printing requires the new frame so I don’t think we can print old frames any more.

For the next graveyard set, what about a land that could be played from the graveyard? Like you had Crucible of Worlds in play. Perhaps it would have some other (mana) cost to do so. Or it could come into play tapped. Or it could only be played from the graveyard!?!

EDIT: Tumblr’s acting up. The question: If Counterspell came back would it be common or uncommon? It would probably be an uncommon which is what rarity it was the last time it was printed in an expert expansion.

Excluding Sorin, Lord of Innistrad and Sun Titan there are no cards that reanimate planeswalkers(as far as I know). Every other permanent type can be reanimated with effects ranging from Argivian Restoration and Replenish to Crucible of Worlds(and obviously Reanimate itself). I am wondering if a card that says "return target planeswalker card in your graveyard to the battlefield" could ever be printed. I mean ultimately is it really that much more broken than turn three Karn Liberated in Modern?

Why don’t planeswalkers have cards that let us avoid mana costs like every other permanent? Um, because we’ve gotten smarter.

Have you considered that the reason Vanish into Memory was less recallable because people who weren't invested in it 7 years ago have no single wrapup thread to reflect on it?

Vanish Into Memory isn’t that recallable because it wasn’t all that interesting of a card. Forgotten Ancient was cool if a little on the weak side (the public didn’t choose the most powerful option) and Crucible of Worlds was a bonafide hit. 2 out of 3 is far better than most Magic designers. For those unaware, the above three cards were all made by public voting through something called “You Make The Card”.
