Mission Briefing

Mechanic Justification

New 14 Oct 2018 Asked by greensunzenith 33 Comments

Re:"Mission Briefing is blue instead of red because it doesn't give flashback." seems kind of flimsy when it's functionally identical, short of actually using the keyword. It's kinda like if a green card was printed with both reach and the "can't be blocked by creatures without flying or reach" ability, and then this was justified with "it's fine because we didn't give it flying".


I think it’s wrong to give green both of those abilities because it is functional flying. I’m not sure this is a good example.

Mission Briefing Query

New 13 Oct 2018 Asked by krazytoukan 36 Comments

Why is Mission Briefing double blue? I get the surveil mechanic meaning it would have to be Dimir, but you've said multiple times that if you were to redo Snapcaster it would be a red card. Why not make it so you have to jumpstart the card you play? Or a jumpstarter mage? Why do you hate us red mages? I thought you were one of the League.


Blue, black and red have all done casting of spells out of the graveyard. Red tends to grant them flashback which wasn’t available in Guilds of Ravnica.
