Goblin Recruiter

Goblin Tutor Cycle

I'm not sure if it was intended that way, but I always saw Goblin Recruiter as red's member of the Mirage/Visions 'tutor cycle'.

It is the closest thing.

Goblin Cards' Design Logic

Was Goblin Recruiter and Goblin Matron a bend/break for red as a whole, but ok for goblins as a creature type?

We let all colors have some access to tutoring for very in flavor things.

Oldest Powerful Creature

alright, assuming you asked in the pit today: what IS the oldest creature that's too powerful to reprint?

We talked about it a bit today. We’d probably be unwilling to reprint Phyrexian Dreadnaught but that’s more due to combo abuse than power unto itself. That’s Mirage. The next one that some thought we wouldn’t do for power reasons was Goblin Recruiter from Visions. There was some debate on this one. Everyone agreed that Urza’s Saga had a number of creatures we most likely wouldn’t reprint including Morphling, Goblin Lackey and some of the free spell creatures.
