EDHREC Cast: Design Trends We Love

General forum

Posted on April 13, 2024, 5:45 p.m. by DemonDragonJ

As a follow up to their previous video, the members of EDHREC have recorded a video about design trends of which they are fond.

I am not surprised, but still displeased, that the members of EDHREC are fond of the restrictions that WotC has been imposing upon certain cards, but there is no need for us to discuss that subject, any further, since we have already discussed it, quite thoroughly.

What does everyone else say about this subject? How do you feel about the points that the speakers in this video have raised?

They really focused on restrictions as the highlight, not sure it is great to not have much positive say on design trends besides restrictions.

I loved when MoM had some mill that was NOT restricted to playing what you JUST milled. So you could have a mill and steal ability that paid you off for previously filling the yard. It made for some gambling without as much complete hit and miss.

I like the design trend of providing more sweepers of high efficiency things, so things that destroy nonlands mana value 1 or less types of things. I think it would be good for Timmie decks to have more punishers of hyper efficiency. Culling Ritual is a gold-standard example.
