In prep of this week’s MTGPQ 1.7.1 update, here is the Eldritch Moon MTGPQ Card Gallery for your reference. We will provide an update shortly on when the update will be released this week.
W00T! Nice.
Gisa and Geralf are exclusive what what? Some fun looking cards in there.
I like your guy’s take on Tree of Perdition. Gonna be interesting.
Interesting. Do you think they forgot to include an additional power for Brisela, Voice of Nightmares? As it stands right now, melding from Gisela by adding Bruna gives +1/+2 and vigilance for 18 mana. You’d pretty much be strictly better off if the cards didn’t meld and I can’t imagine anyone playing Bruna in a deck with Gisela. In paper, Brisela prevents your opponent from casting cheap spells, which could make the meld worth it.
It’s a game-breaking keyword on a blocker that’s big enough. It allows Brisela to do damage to enemies BEFORE they can even react (and in most cases, kill them without them doing damage back!).
If you were around when Knight of the White Orchid was a 6/6 for 16 mana… yeah. First Strike is a very powerful keyword - especially for blockers in this game where one creature can block any number of creatures!
Right. He’s saying that Gisela has all the pertinent abilities.
If you put Bruna in a deck, in order to meld, you’re paying 18 mana for a creature (Brisela) who is only 1/2 and Vigilance better than Gisela. It isn’t worth it.
And more annoyingly, paper Bruna (but not MTGPQ Bruna) can get back Angels, not just humans, which lets you meld them automatically if your Gisela has already died.
Ha. I literally just said this in the slack channel. I don’t see how bringing back angels would be OP in PQ. Also, why can’t PQ Brisela have the paper ability of restricting opponent to cast cards of X cost or more? There’s a lot of investment going on with this meld to leave these abilities out.
They have left out so many cards from paper. Many of those rares…I dont see why they could not have included them. They could have left out some of the lousier rares that i see in the gallery and included cards like identity thief, eldritch evolution and coax from blind eternities… the last one i think was kind of an important for the theme of this set… nahiri summoning emrakul to innistrad
Also disappointed in Mirrorwing Dragon… the paper ability was so much more interesting.. replicate all effects of any spell cast on it on all creatures of the player who cast the spell… buff it and buff all of your other creatures… destroy it and all of your creatures are destroyed too. As it stands the current mana cost is too much for its stats and ability. Or increase the amount of damage done by it
