Bassim El-WakilI genuinely think that Undergrowth, were it part of #gds3 would be nixed for not being NWO-friendly. I’m surprised to see it’s inclusion in #mtggrn over scavenge or unearth (the latter of which has no green cards atm and would’ve been a fun interaction with both surveil and jump-start since unearth grants haste). But seeing commons with “+X/+0” and constant counting of graveyards just irks me. MaRo keeps saying sets are over the line of desired complexity but we keep getting stuff like this. 😕
@BassWakil I’m loving mentor. I played a bunch of mentor in Eternal and got super sick of it because it’s just not fun to constantly pump your creatures by tapping them. Boros mentor seems waaaaaaaay more fun. I wish that the mechanic called the receiving creature a “student” just so we could have some of that sweetness that hooked me with Eternal, “When this becomes a student, it gets +1/+1”. Those effects were sweet.
I also really like Surveil. I love seeing evergreen mechanics get variations
