Apart from it not returning to a status quo... Seeing how Lumon is screwing over the upper tiers as much as the bottom.

It remains well made and has yet to descend into a pastiche of itself, and in fact has a plot that is slowly moving forwards.

Though I reserve final judgement until the series is done.

I was worried it was going to be essentially reset to be more of S1. I glad that after what I was worried was a fairly safe eps. 1 and 2 to reset the status quo that it hasn't been scared to break the status quo since then.

Excited to see where it goes.

Those dragons don't look like they belong to any Tarkir brood I recognise.

New wedge dragonlords?

Edit: according the Planeswalkers' Guide... Yes. The new clan dragons summoned by the clan leaders that defeat the Dragonlords before we get to the plot. ๐Ÿค”

Some non-English music I enjoy, though not at the same time:

Lisa Ekdahl - Vem Vet (Swedish) Nice catchy Swedish tune, maybe jazz?

Samain et Shuait - Les Nomades (French and Anishinaabe) First Nations hip-hop

Gwenno - Chwyldro (Kernewek) Folky dreamscapes in a functionally extinct language (they're bringing it back, though).

Moonchild Sanelly - Gwara Gwara (English and Xitsonga) Pop-funk-dance mixing international and indigenous traditions.

Majid Soula - Win Terram (Tamazight) Electronic beats from a Berber.

Jacques Dutronc - On nous Cache Tout, on nous Tout de Rein (French) A classic of French rock and roll.

Manu Negra - Mala Vida (Spanish) Punk styled music by folks who like their anarchist forebears.

San Salvador - Quau te Mena(Occitan) Occitanian folk traditions given new life.

TUDI-VOICE - ๅ›กไป”ไฝ ็”˜็Ÿฅ (Hokkien) - Socially active Taiwanese band in Chinese folk tradition with a modern spin.

Beyond - Glorious Years (Hong Kong Cantonese) Cantopop legends.

Sorry for the YouTube links.

More the hypocrisy for having denied entry to Russia while allowing Israel's to remain.

The actual terms for entering are being a part of the European Broadcasting Union; which includes Israel and Australia, despite the "European" in the name.

Zappa remains great.

But also at least half of his songs are absolute smut, and we love him for it.

The French are, understandibly, less willing to overlook Nazism than anglophones.

Then again, no one should be overlooking Nazism.

That's very kind of you.
I'm sure it'll help someone, alas I'm a bit of an old fool when it comes to books and like to have the physical codex in my hands. Reading stuff off of screens, especially graphic novels never seems to jive with me, even when it's one I know I like.

The Scottish Full English I think has a slight edge on the English when you've all the trappings.

Haggis > black pudding.

For other countries: ่ดตๅทž (Guizhou, China) - ๆ‹็ˆฑ่ฑ†่…/ Lover's Tofu Pouch - is a special tofu that's made with sun exposure and multiple mixing, that's then grilled and sliced open to be stuffed.
่ฑ†่…ๅœ†ๅญ/fried tofu balls - These are simpler. Big mouthful sized deep fried tofu balls that're sliced open and filled with a pickled radish, coriander, fish-mint, and chilli mix. ่ดต้˜ณ้…ธๅˆ†/Guiyang Fermented Noodles - rice (iirc) noodles that are quite thick, and left to ferment slightly as part of the process. Normally eaten for breakfast.

Romania: I have amazing memories of a vegetable dish called givech, a thick vegetable mix that you eat with bread. Hearty, warming, and delicious.

Bryan Talbot is great.

I have one Luther Arkright collection. It's the middle of great, psychedelic anti-fascist tale. Just wish I could get my hands on more of it all.

 

Not my favourite Moonchild Sanelly track (Gwara Gwara), but it's fun and just I love the revelling in bi-ness here.

Edit: also riffing on her older and more fun (and sexual) track Boys and Girls.

 

How did you all get on at your prereleases?

Looks to be a synergy set as despite opening Lumara, Maha, and almost one of each of the reanination spells in the set I went 2:1. =ล‚ ah well.

Matched up against a fun deck blinking Head of the Homestead with the token class enchantment. Luckily it doesn't do well against Vren the Relentless.
On the other hand it turns out that Azure Beastbinder is a top tier threat, and synergy can beat power.

Still I can't complain about opening chase cards. What about all of you? Any fun interactions or moments from your prerelease?

Anyone manage to win with either of the artifact decks (Token Resistance and Artifact or Fiction)?

The others all seem to go hugely over the top, or just trample over them each time I try to play them.

 

New reach effect in arena to make it very obvious.

Secret reach is now instant speed tricks only. =( (Though I've attacked into more than my share of reaching cyclops.)

 

Give me mormir over this degenerate rubbish. -_-

BBRR 5/5 rare legendary dragon scorpion rogue

Flample (flying, trample).
Sac 3 creatures: put a creature card from your hand onto the battlefield. Activate at sorcery speed, and only once per turn.

Kinda underwhelming, despite the somewhat unique ability. Still, 5/5 flample for 4 is very good.

Edit: totally assumed the card was mythic, that'll teach me to post when I'm tired. This is much more influential in limited then.

 

Uncommon land - desert

T: add C.
3: target creature can't block this turn, activate only as a sorcery.

Haste
When ~ enters the battlefield, another target creature you control gets +1/+1 and gains haste until end of turn.
Plot 1R

Finally a plot card that looks like it makes back some of the tempo. Maybe we'll see some more in the days to come.

Flying, lifelink
Whenever you cast a spell from anywhere except your hand, you may cast a permanent spell with equal or lesser CMC from your hand without paying its mana cost. If you don't you may put a land card from your hand on to the battlefield.
