I think they are re-fering to reflecting as in meditation so not all are reflecting because have you tried to meditate at a swimming pool with a bunch of kids running around?

So I looked up those yugioh cards on amazon and they're all like 50c a piece, not sure how foil affects the price though...

Wow was that Yugioh pack awful. Now I haven't kept up with yugioh in a while, but I did play since Legend of Blue Eyes (yugioh alpha), and stopped when the power creep became absurd (synchro monsters).

The ritual spell card is good for a ritual spell card, but being that it is a ritual spell card, it is entirely toilets. Ritual cards are invariably bad because of the inherent ritual mechanics.

Lol at the fusion card. Such a wall of text. Let me give you the TL:DR: "You lose if you are dumb enough to play this card"

Technically, Tempest block took place on Rath, not Dominaria. But thanks to the Overlay, Rath and Dominaria are now the same plane, so...

No, Scourge is not part of the Weatherlight story. The Weatherlight story was Weatherlight, Tempest, Stronghold, Exodus, Mercadian Masques, Nemesis, Invasion, Planeshift, and Apocalypse. And, technically, Urza's block was a prequel to the whole thing.

In Onslaught block, the Mirari's magic was mutating everyone on the continent. That's why the human wizard looks like a blob monster.

The Riptide Project was a group of wizards trying to go all John Hammond on a bunch of sliver fossils. But as anyone who knows anything about Jurassic Park can guess, it ended poorly. So, the thing that the Riptide Survivor survived is an entire island overrun with slivers.

I think WotC is saving the resolution of the Guilds vs Guildless conflict for Ravnica block 3. Hopefully, at least...

Is it sad that I was able to figure out, based on your description, that the card depicted on the Planeshift booster is Draco?

Thank you Captain Technicality.

No it's not. It shows your knowledge on the subject. Or at the very least your willingness to research it. There is nothing sad about knowing something that you like. Knowing history fake or real is not sad. Wanting to spread that historical knowledge is not sad either.

I'm going to just start buying bulk homelands cards to build into a giant boat, load that boat full of packs of homelands, set it out to sea and shoot it with a fire arrow.

Regarding Evaporate, Gatherer says "A creature which is both blue and white only takes one damage."

What do you do with the cards you open once the box fills up? I feel like it'd make for a great random draft.
