  1. I’m not saying it’s great, but I think your review of Touch of Moonglove is a little harsh – This is the first set where Menace is a keyword and thus on a bunch of cards. If you swing with a creature with Menace and they’re sick of taking it, you can at least 2-for-2 them with the Touch when they stack block.

    • So if you pull together the right cards, and they decide to risk a multi-block, and they don’t have an answer, this card will reward you with a 2-for-2. Still doesn’t sound like a playable.

        • Played a Touch of Moonglove in my pre-release BR deck and I think this card did OK well.

          On defense, my weakest creature can block/kill his/her strongest creature with a shock to his/her face doesn’t sound too shabby.

          On a clogged up board, having the ability use a Menace creature to 2 for 2 with the opponent losing 4 life is just fine.

          Not saying this is an all-star but I too think calling this card unplayable is a bit harsh.

  2. I’m surprised to hear such low grades for Dark Dabbling. It says “draw a card” on it, so it’ll generally be card advantage. Your opponent thought you were trading in combat? Nope, pay three and win combat without using a card. Opponent thought they were killing your guy with a removal spell? Nope, free card for you.

    You won’t get to take down huge creatures like you could with Necrobite, but you’re going to gain card advantage a fairly large percentage of the time you cast this.

  3. Is there ever a transcription of the show or somewhere where I can get an excel sheet with all of the ratings?

    • I’m currently compiling a spreadsheet as I listen and will make it available on Google Docs for all. Feel free to e-mail me and I will make sure you get it.

    • You need to keep in mind that the analysis is probably worth 3x as much as just the grade. But if you just want the excel, remember they’re grading it based on the idea that it’s in the best situation it can be in.

      • I agree with this 100%. I just look at the spreadsheet as a sort of “cheat sheet” to possibly review before a draft kicks off. That’s the reason I wanted to create it.

      • So excited to see what you did with my recipe! Looks too deicuiols. I have been wanting to make that dip again so now I have an excuse to make it the way you did! Looking forward to your future posts!

      • Chiara purtroppo non ho consigli da darti!! Mai stata nella grande mela. Ti prego fai shopping da victoria's secret anche per me, un sogno!! Hai mai acquaistato dall'Italia dal sito di Victoria's secret? Se si, come ti sei trovata? Grazie in anticipo se riuscirai a rispondermi. Bacioni!!p.s Ho votato per voi oggi:)

      • SPENT NUCLEAR FUEL IS SOLID!!It is wholly inaccurate and misleading to refer to spent nuclear fuel as “radioactive sludge.” The editor correctly pointed out that the progress of Yucca Mountain has hit roadblocks–but could it be that the number one roadblock is misplaced public fear due to misunderstanding of the nature (and physical state) of nuclear fuel? This confusion is widespread and is continually fueled by editorials such as this.

  4. I wonder – aren’t Act of Treason (or the mini one on the creature) effects rise in value because Renown is a thing?

    • If you Act of Treason the other guy’s creature with Renown, it’ll trigger when it hits them, giving the other guy a bigger creature. I mean, obviously don’t do that, but Renown is a double edged sword.

      That said, Act of Treason can be used to flip Chandra if you target her (she untaps when you cast it, and again when it resolves), so if you don’t have two red spells in your hand, or something that lets her deal damage like Tail Slash, or can’t attack, it’s a backup plan.

  5. I agree with Luis regarding Shadows of the Past. The investment is small and the benefits come without any effort. In a release day draft, it was my only two drop after a mulligan and it single-handedly got me back in the game. I scryed more than ten times in the course of playing normally. The late game life swing bought me several turns. (And I would’ve gotten away with it, too– if it wasn’t for that meddling Ravaging Blaze!)

  6. Why do you skip some cards? The ones I noticed were Sengir Vampire and Divine Verdict+Eagle of the Watch. I know I’ve been playing Sengir Vampire since Unlimited, but I was curious to hear your opinions on it in this particular card set. Even just saying “Sengir Vampire, same C+ as always” would be great. Assuming their omission was intentional.
