Okay but @pleasantkenobi.bsky.social is there any chance you’d put a World Trade Center card from the Sim City TCG in your party box?

This #MTGEternities commander card has some pretty poor templating to its reminder text. IMO it should at least be “a player commits a crime” and ideally would be “a player commits a crime if they target any of their opponents, anything their opponents control…”

This card from #MTGEternities is so wild to me, because it basically is a thumbs up or thumbs down check on if Spacecraft are good in the format.
Although if the literal space opera set isn’t battlecruiser magic we might be absolutely cooked as a society.

I got to spend 69 treasures on a choco comet after drawing all but 2 cards in my deck. It was astounding.

Hey @wotcmatt.bsky.social, some templating nerds and I were wondering what the templating standard is for ‘dies’ right now? Does everything die now, or is it “hey if a creature or planeswalker is dying we’re cool with having an artifact come along for the ride”?

This jabronis internal dialogue: “How much does a layperson know about law?”
“Well, obviously enough to cite penal codes, but no more than that”

Found a potentially really weird rules interaction in #mtgdft. It might be possible to use two exhausted exhausts with Elvish Refueler as long as one of them is a mana ability.
Why? Well it has to do with the process for how abilities are activated.

Kinda miffed. I got a great synergy of Giada + Valkyrie's call, but it's bugged. Tragic.

Ok I’ve got a media question for folks: in the Scott Pilgrim comics, is the text taking Ramona saying “it was just a phase” about dating Roxie at face value or is it meant to highlight the ways in which Ramona can be crummy like Scott can?
