I charge the playing cards, make the Thoracle player go boom

I am very open to feedback

Remember [[Angus Mackenzie]] and [[Axelrod Gunnarson]]? What about Ilvo Sulmu? Here are some of the forgotten purple legends of Magics fourth expansion, Legends™.

Random Facts & Trivia

• Umbris and Skrimbo Jimbo were the largest vanilla creatures until the printing of [[Enormous Baloth]] in Legions™.
• Graavo Shoczaill was printed with the typo "Ramage: 2" as opposed to "Rampage: 2", inspiring the card Rammage in Unglued™.
• Doppel had the greatest difference in rules text to oracle text so far, the novella present on the Legends™ printing of the card was later reduced to "You may have Doppel as a copy of target artifact or creature, except it is blue and purple. Otherwise, Doppel enters as a 1/1."
• The story of Halfdane and Squmbi was further elaborated on in the events of Shapeshifter's Paradise by Scott McGough as part of Legends Cycle III.
• The naming convention established by Pyrdolon en-Kor was later used during Tempest block with the design of the Kor, influenced the design of [[Ghostfire]], and may have inspired the story of Zendikar block and the Eldrazi. That's a lot for a Legend that's still stuck on the Reserved List is reaching over a $1k price tag.
• The art of Metis Nous and [[Nicol Bolas]] both provided by Edward P Beard, Jr. were accidentally switched during their Chronicles™ printing.
• Ugin and Nicol Bolas were originally rivals and not brothers, according to Richard Garfield in an interview. They were changed to be brothers later on to "avoid the dragon yaoi allegations" confirms the designer.

The new common legendary card with grandeur inspired this random Universes Beyond idea. Hopefully, some of yall get the reference. The artwork is concept art from the movie.

Really just felt like designing something to shoutout the artist, the art is amazing and they have a criminally low follower count on X. Go follow @hahahuhi504.

I really want them to make more 4 color commanders. I understand that it is a difficult design space, but i think with the new prepared mechanic, it is the perfect time to try to bring it back.

The character is mono blue, but they are learning something else. In my example, a Vedalken from Esper traveled to Jund (probably during the conflux) and were curious about how it worked and decided to learn its ways.

Please excuse the bad formatting and odd editing of the card 😅 had issues with the site I was using so I ended up just editing most of it myself. I hope everything is worded properly

i say flipped for readability like it actually helps. anyways, i saw someone trying to put the most words on a card and took it as a challenge, for some reason. it wasn't really worth it, but heres a somewhat flavourful card telling the story of whichever accursed god it is that built the staircase depicted in descent into madness. and yes, the mad architect side of the card looks ugly but would've been a pain to fit the artist credit in if i did it properly. :p

call me in like 2050 when wotc mkes a card with more words than this, i guess
