    Twitching Doll + Agatha's Soul Cauldron Each creature with +1/+1 counter can sacrifice itself for more Spider

    Carrot Cake's blurb should have read "I knew I should have made that left turn at Albuquerque".

    "Sharp eyes" 👏🏽...👏🏽.....👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Also, Fear of Missing Out is a profound fear for people raised in a bad, constricting religious context. They're taught negatively, as opposed to instructively, effectively teaching them "your righteousness is determined by what you don't do". So, they grow up understanding the best of evil and the worst of goodness. They wouldn't be afraid of missing out on what's bad for them if they were properly taught or allowed to learn for themselves what the consequences were. It could also be about the kid who has to go to bed early, but can hear the party going from their bed. . . or people who think they're not doing all they can in life. I imagine at least one of these is what they're going for in the art--the faces appear to represent varying forms of existential dread.

    On one hand, I am excited about this set. On the other hand, fatigue has definitely set in. That feeling of fatigue is getting worse and worse with each release.
  • There's already a chainsaw creature in New Capenna and a chainsaw equipment in Crimson Vow, and now that I look it up in the art tags on Scryfall, a probably Ikoria-based chainsaw creature in C20. If someone's mad about chainsaws in the main Magic setting, they're years too late.
  • "Voja, where are you hiding now? You know you have nowhere to run." - insert the most unhinged 80s villain's laugh you can think of! I do like the vibes of both of those sets though the transition is not easy to make to say the least. Plus I find some of artworks absolutely incredible, like "Early Winter", "Twitching Doll" or that alternate version of Salvation Swan. Those artists are the real MVPs. I have to say that My good old Deranged hermit pal would love that comfy Oakhollow village. I hope Dennis Moore will never find that white Cagliostro Castle one though, 100% sure no one will get the first reference especially if your neither British, neither a boomer! Cheers man <3 PS: that doomsday demon has the most beautiful mana cost I have ever seen. Too bad that unlike Atraxa you can't cheat it into play. Sadge.

    New player here and I’m loving the channel.
  • I absolutely love the theme of these two sets, especially since duskmourne is coming out around the spooky season.
  • @Optimator7
    I think one thing to emphasize with Duskmourne is that the set is still inundated with supernatural things and magical effects. If anything, it feels like it's going to have more actual magical things than Neon Dynasty and New Capenna
  • @yu-djinn
    It’s really satisfying to see Dev grow as a content creator
  • This is the first time I realized that Cursed Recording kills YOU and not your opponent. I’ve seen quite a few content creators get that wrong, and I also misread it.
  • @STS-qi1qy
    I like the design aspect of the Flying counter for Salvation Swan. Seems like an upside to new players (and can be) while actually being a stop on any infinite shenanigans with changelings and other non-flying birds since the blink is an enter trigger not a cast trigger.
  • @Hanmacx
    Enduring Tenacity + Zur, Eternal Schemer You can reanimate the Snake again and again into a Creature And as Creature, it has Lifelink and Deathtouch
  • @dtigertron
    FOMO is a real thing for some, can be as big a problem as fear of heights. Love the content, keep up the great work!
  • You all see animal tribal in the bloomborrow set, all I see is more and more changeling support. And sir that is a Topiary Stomper that creates Urza Lands, not to mention the plethra of land types we have access to in standard.
  • 🔮💫 Love the new Magic cards from Bloomburrow and Duskbourne!
  • @kobold8476
    Duskmourn looks pretty solidly like an urban fantasy with stuff like personified nightmares, don't understand the people freaking out about it at all
  • When Foundations drops, you'll be able to go Elves on T1, impending Overlord of the Hauntwoods on T2, and then have five mana on turn 3 plus a 6/5 cooking. Don't know where you go from there but that's neat. Day of Judgment will also put a little pressure on Sunfall too and might make dies triggers better.
  • @dittmar104
    FoMO seems like it could be really cool in a RG aggro deck, using stuff like Sentinel of the Nameless City, Goldvien Hydra, Samut to have multiple creatures ready for your second combat. It would be really nice to have a bit more generic artifact synergy in the colours besides treasures to get the most out of your map token but I could see this being a neat stompy list.
