Hi Mark! Random rules hypothetical for you; if the rules allowed players to cast spells and use abilities in between the resolution of different parts of a card (e.g. flash in Orcish Bowmasters after the damage of Shake the Foundations resolved but before they draw a card), would it break the game?

The hypothetical assumes you can do something that would normally break the game, but the hypothetical assumes it can be done, so in the parallel universe where the hypothetical is true, I have no idea because we’re in uncharted space.

Quick question about generically named Universes Beyond cards like Orcish Bowmasters and Reprieve. If these cards are ever reprinted, will they have to recieve new names because they are stamped with the Universes Beyond holofoil marker, or are they fine to be reprinted with only new art?

If the name is not using IP specific words, we can most likely reprint it with the same name.

Why is Orcish Bowmasters black and not red? It isn't that black can't do the effect, but it seems way more at home in red decks.

I assume it’s black because they wanted it to be an Orc and, in the main set, the Orcs are black (or black/red) and the Goblins are red (although there are monored cards with the Amass Orc mechanic).
