We’ve now seen the full card list how do you think it’s going to impact Modern and how do you think it compares against previous MH sets?
My personal thoughts, I’m glad to see [[Recruiter of the Guard]] make it in, though I would have also liked to see [[Veteran Explorer]].
In terms of power level, I think it looks like less than MH2 which is good, but I guess I’ll have to see where the Flare Cycle ends up settling. All the best cards seem to be highly dependent on energy which limits their viability, unless a super powerful energy deck emerges I think they won’t be a problem. Still possible that Necrodominance, Ugin’s Labyrinth or Ugin’s Binding could cause issues.
My only real disappointment is that despite Eldrazi being a big selling point, all the best colorless cards look like they’ll work better in Mono-G/U Tron. Kozilek’s Command seems like the only big pickup but even that doesn’t seem like it can handle all the new threats that E-Tron folds to
I haven’t looked through all the cards, and I’m only really thinking of it from a limited standpoint, but it looks very fun. I’m excited to play with BFZ style Eldrazi again, probably in a draft environment that isn’t terrible.
