FORGING AHEAD
Here’s our winners of the New Metal contest!
Mechanical Winner: Mage-Ring Saboteur by @ irenefondorn Simple Technicality. This is such a beautifully made engine for an artifact deck dipping their toes into the UBx artifact deck. The first ability triggers off of the activation of the second, letting you get a scry before you draw and discard, while putting light pressure on your opponent. This is a fantastic design of a mechanics-forward signpost uncommon. Great work.
Legendary Winner” Lambick the Reborn by @teaxch While mono-white commanders that deal in equipment are a dime a dozen, Lambick is the only one that brings her own personal armoury! Lambick can apply some VERY early game pressure, and apparently death is only the beginning as Lambick refines her swords every time you cast her, Making Certain cards like Fencing Ace and Mirroden Crusader into potentially lethal threats. A very cool design, well done.
Flavour Winner: Gravel-Hide Salvagecrafter by @demimonde-semigoddess Step 1: Pick up Rock Step 2: Smash! This is an absolutely flavourful design that ties shows that gruul don’t just smash and forget. A great design that I can see in any Ravnica/Gruul set.
And those are our winners! I’ll be splitting the commentary in to MANY posts, so keep a look out for those as we head into a solid month of
PROVING GROUNDS.
Our four Mod finalists are taking over for the next month, each taking a week to run a contest to see if they have what it takes to become a full-time mod. @illharg-the-rave-boar is kicking things off on Sunday for week one of PROVING GROUNDS.
As always, I hope you guys have a fantastic weekend, don’t forget our Discord is always open to fresh new faces. ~Mod @thatboonguy
