Flame Dragon Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Technically we got this yesterday, but it didn't show up in the old thread and since we're about to get new cards, figured I start todays with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I was going to complain about it not having any protection until I re-read the damn thing.It's CONVERTED mana cost. With a way to recycle itself. That's not bad at all, really. Two 4 mana cost artifacts on the field and this becomes 3 for 10/10...and, it can become free in addition to being able to be put in any deck.I like.

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 How is this not mythic. This is a super mythic card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delibirb Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Very unique. Dropped early it can be a bulldozer. It'll become target #1 for artifact destruction (which is rather plentiful this standard) but thankfully Wizards saw that coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bury the year Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 [spoiler=Massive images.] [spoiler=Even more massive images.] Creative Spark {R} Sorcery Choose target creature, then exile the top card of your library. You may have Creative Spark deal damage equal to the converted mana cost of the exiled card to that creature. If you don't, you may play that card until end of turn. Disappearing Act {1}{U}{U} Instant As an additional cost to cast Disappearing Act, return a permanent you control to its owner's hand. Counter target spell.

Delibirb Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Perpetual Timepiece may turn out to be really good in long games. Creative Spark has some potential, maybe. Disappearing Act is only plus, tbh. Return a permanent with an ETB trigger (Aether Hub, maybe?) and counter a spell seems cool. Standard countermagic cmc is standard.

Flame Dragon Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Captured seems a bit much for what is basically a worse Pacifism. I mean hell, the creature can still block. Refurbish is SUPER clean. Oviya seems pretty meh. Like, she isn't bad, just pretty dull. Creative Spark is a neat design. O look, a 3/3 for 3 with haste. Reunion seems sweet. Shame Googles rotates.

Flame Dragon Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Also shuts down any burn and screws up removal. But this is why the "can't block" not being there is so bad, you need some evasion if you want to get around their creature. Otherwise they'll just block and try to kill it off. Yes, that is likely the point of this version, but I feel a rare Pacifism at 4 mana should be WAY better than what this is and that clause doesn't do nearly enough to make up the power difference.

.Rai Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I think the home for Captured is a control deck with creatures as its wincon. Those decks won't care at all about the no-blocking clause, but appreciate longevity to their wincons. Those decks also are the ones trying to grind out card advantage, so wasting their spells is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 It wouldn't be used in a deck where they have such ample opportunity to block Which severally limits where it can be played. Again, when a rare doesn't look better than Pacifism something is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
