According to the MtGSalvation Spoilers, Duress will be returning to standard in 2010. I've missed the old first turn hand disruption bomb, and I'm not just happy that it is returning to standard. I'm stoked that it will stay in extended for quite a while longer as well.
But Duress isn't the only goodie making a reappearance in 2010. The original planeswalkers look to be returning as well, and that's good news. Garruk Wildspeaker is still a little too expensive for my tastes, but he might be a worthy investment knowing that he'll be back next year. Of the other four, I either already have them or I'm not all that impressed. Woooohoooo!









I'm out of the Magic scene for quite some time now, but I'm just curious: How does Planeswalker works?
ReplyDeleteWell, its kind of complicated. The idea was to make you feel like you summoned another player to help you out. In practice, they function sort of like artifacts/enchantments with multiple activated abilities and a life total that can be attacked just like the player's.
ReplyDeleteThat's about as accurate as I can get without writing a novel...
Suffice to say, they're my new favorite card type.
I undestand, thanks. Yes it seems very interesting and a new rtactical approach to the game... :)
