Leyline of Anticipation

White's Shared Flash Possibilities

New 08 Mar 2022 Asked by quantext 23 Comments

With white getting more flash cards, would it be in pie for white to have a card that allows you to cast everything at instant speed like Leyline of Anticipation?


No. White is still secondary at flash and usually it’s the primary color that grants it to others.

Favorite Cards Trivia

New 08 Mar 2015 Asked by m1rrari 28 Comments

Thank you MaRo for all that you do. I have really enjoyed the seven deadly sins discussion recently, and hate to interrupt, but can I get some birthday trivia on one of my favorite cards vedalken orrery or leyline of anticipation?


Vedalken Orrery was designed because the goal of Fifth Dawn design was to make a very Johhny/Jenny-ish artifact set as the previous two sets had spun out of control power levelwise. To support the feel, we made a lot of “build around me” artifacts to inspire a lot of fun deck building. Vedalken Orrery came out of that desire.Happy Birthday!

Templating Clarifications

New 02 Oct 2013 Asked by lowbeyonder 16 Comments

Why do most cards that let you cast non-instants at instant speed (like Prophet of Kruphix or Leyline of Anticipation) say "as though they had flash" instead of just giving them flash the way Teferi does?


That’s a templating question. I’ve spent eighteen years learning not to template to stay out of templating meetings.
