Impact of 'Saw in Half' on Serra Avatar

New • 30 Nov 2021 • Asked by dolbyzalo • 48 Comments

What happens if I Saw in Half a Serra Avatar? Do the tokens enter with half the P/T of the original as it was last on the battlefield, or are they still defined based on your total life?

It’s whatever half of the Serra Avatar’s base power and toughness are (rounded up) at the time of casting Saw in Half.EDIT: Sorry, at time of resolution, not casting.

Eldrazi Titans Mechanic

New • 22 Jan 2020 • Asked by natew000 • 50 Comments

Why do the original 3 Eldrazi titans shuffle the entire graveyard into the library, unlike other similar “protected from reanimation” cards (Serra Avatar, Blightsteel Colossus, etc.) that only shuffle themselves into the library?

We were trying something different.

I like */* creatures not tied to cards in hand. Can we do more Serra Avatar or Lhurgoyf cards, please?

You have something against Maro? : )

Reprinting Strong Cards

New • 19 Jun 2012 • Asked by deathcloud86 • 4 Comments

Why isn't R & D reprinting the awesome cards from the past more often? Instead of mediocre cards like Gloomwidow, Serra Avatar, Clone, etc why can't we get Death Cloud, Palinchron, Oversold Cemetery, or cards that have seen play? It feels like whoever is designing the core sets isn't doing a good job of combing through Magic's past and I wish this would be looked at. Or at least put these in the expert expansions please.

We do repeat powerful cards. For example, Rancor is coming back in Magic 2013. In expert expansions though we tend to like to have the majority of the powerful cards be new unknown cards that people have to figure out rather than repeats that are already known quantities.
