Use of Emblems on Cards

New • 12 Jun 2022 • Asked by rukalin-chan • 54 Comments

Why don't non-planeswalker cards use emblems for "until end of game" effects? For example, why don't Sea Gate Restoration and Finale of Revelation make an emblem with "You have no maximum hand size"? Is it to conserve token-slots?

We’ve chosen to make emblems just a planeswalker thing to keep them more special.

Is there a reason you keep emblems to planeswalkers only and not have them for other cards with permanent effects like Finale of Revelation?

Yes, we like Planeswalkers having something unique to them.

Emblems vs Enduring Effects

New • 18 Apr 2021 • Asked by maskedthespian • 35 Comments

Mechanically, what is the difference between a Planeswalker Emblem and an effect that lasts "for the rest of the game" but with no marker or counter indicating that effect (such as on Finale of Revelation, Praetor's Counsel, Sea Gate Restoration, and Stigma Lasher)?

Mechanically, not much. Thematically, a bit.

FYI Technically Praetor’s Council and Finale of Revelation make the grandpa of emblems, being “effects that last for the rest of the game”, which effectively act as emblems just not by name.

As a flavor separator, that destinction is fine.

Shouldn't cards like Finale of Revelation create emblems? I mean it is the same wording as with Elspeth in the past.

Only planeswalkers make emblems.
