Hello, in the list of thing is ikoria, there is magic's seventh egg. Chicken egg, chimeric egg, darkwater egg, dingus egg, dragon egg, golden egg, mossfire egg, roc egg and rukh egg. That's already more than seven. Did I misunderstand what it meant, or did you mean nonartificial egg?


I meant creature type Egg.

Divine Intervention and Tournament Issues

New 10 Mar 2020 Asked by tbjanowski 35 Comments

Divine Intervention was only banned from August 1994 till October 1999. Same time frame as Mirror Universe and Underworld Dreams, one of which was recently reprinted in Standard the other that while not able to be reprinted has had similar effects printed. There were some real special cards on that list like Ali from Cairo, Sword of the Ages and Dingus Egg. So saying a card was banned as one point in time is really not a relevant argument for it being unfun.


I didn’t say it was unfun. I said it caused problems in tournaments. That said, I do believe drawing games is not particularly fun. That just wasn’t what I argued.

Enchantment Niches

New 13 Sep 2019 Asked by snescontroller 53 Comments

Glass Casket has me concerned. It feels like, ever since colored artifacts became an every-set thing, there just aren't that many mechanical niches for enchantments anymore. Artifacts get to also be creatures, cost generic mana, have tap abilities... the list goes on. The only thing enchantments can do that artifacts can't is attach to objects other than creatures you control.


Artifacts have had global effects since the game began back in Alpha (Ankh of Mishra, Black Lotus, Copper Tablet, Dingus Egg, Gauntlet of Might, Howling Mine, Kormus Bell, Meekstone, Sunglasses of Urza, and Winter Orb). The change is we’re allowing artifacts to have colored mana costs (and even this we’ve done for over ten years - just not at the current levels). This means the overlap between artifacts and enchantments, which has always been there, is a little more noticeable.The color pie is determined by the mana cost of the card, so if white can do something as an enchantment, it means it can do it as an artifact, The result of this is we have to lean a little more on the flavor to help make them feel different from one another.

Dingus Egg Restricted

New 06 Aug 2013 Asked by colonelclaypool 4 Comments

What was so powerful about Dingus Egg that led to its restriction?


Cheap land destruction was actually the problem and Dingus Egg was a popular way to win while denying the opponent any lands. It’s inclusion on the original list is much joked about today.

Dragon vs. Egg Priority

New 03 Aug 2013 Asked by fateful-grand-orders-deactivate 14 Comments

"shintome asked: What came first, the Dragon or the Egg?Alpha had Shivan Dragon and Dingus Egg so neither came first." Wouldn't the dragon technically go first since its red and red is usually number before artifacts? Granted numbered cards didn't come later, but still.


Ah, but Alpha didn’t have card numbering. That didn’t happen until Exodus.
