That is not how that works with the rooms. It's a special action, so it will still resolve even if they blow it up. It would actually have been a waste if they did blow it up after you unlock it, so it would have been a safe play to make. Obviously, static abilities on rooms are the ones you want to kill, but the ones that have one activation you want to kill before they can unlock it. You probably already figured that out by now, but I wanted to let others know if they didn't because it's a new and confusing mechanic as well as just a confusing game in general. Regardless, it's always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thanks.

I think something that makes say its name better is that fabled passage and the other land that blows up to get a basic land will be great as no matter how many times you pop it for the land it will go back to the graveyard and you can return it to your hand again next time you play say its name.

I think Awakening Hall is going to be a pain to play against, and certainly not on a rarely useful middle of the road level. I think there are more than enough deathtouchers, sacrifice spells (like the new Bone Splinters you reviewed right before it), etc that if you're dropping it on turn 3-5 for 3, you're going to be able to trade or chump smaller creatures pretty comfortably to stay alive and get a couple drains, perhaps play something like the 5/5 deathtoucher on turn 5 and similarly have no worries about trading it for 1-2 creatures on board, and stay alive well enough to get the bomb off for 8 and more or less end the game. It's obviously not always going to work, but the same could be said of most things. Even the 10 out of 10 bomb could disappear for a 1-2 mana removal card, so I'm really not putting Awakening Hall below a 6.5 or 7 in a deck that even mildly builds with it in mind. In the right Golgari deck it's busted. Also, I think you guys missed the idea of just casting Meathook Massacre II for 4 (triggering no sacrifices). 4 black to deal 3 damage with every removal card, in addition to whatever combat deaths you run into, as well as being able to pay 3 life to regenerate any creature you control that dies? That's a wild card for 4 mana. I don't see a universe where that's a 2/10.

There are some good cards like Come Back Wrong, Nowhere To Run, and Overlord of The Balemurk. Valgavoth, Terror Eater would be good in mono black with Cabal Coffers and Valgavoth's Faithful would be very useful too. I still think that black should have been better than it is.

Floodpits Drowner. Okay. Let's talk bears. For 2 mana, at a 5 rating, I expect a 2/2 with a little bit of upside. This thing is a freakin' MONSTER. This bear gets to wait to come down until their end step, taps down their own 2 or 3 drop, and then gets to swing in, flying, with vigilance. But wait, there's more! Because this little bear can tap down their biggest threat later in the game. And if they don't have some way to murder it, your little bear can outright remove their bomb. This is one of the best bears of all time and it's not even close. And you're gonna do it dirty with a 6? The variance of limited and the relative weakness of blue may not allow this card to truly shine in draft, but this card is absolutely bonkers overpowered. I'm sure somewhere in other formats is where it will truly generate the hatred, but this little thing will be a massive overperformer in limited too, it's just too stronk.

Something worth mentioning I think that I didn't really hear from you guys is that a number of cards that either work as tap engines (Orphans of the Wheat) or ones that make it easier for creatures to attack safely (e.g. The escort that gives a creature indestructible, or the ghost that gives +2/4) are incredibly important for Survival triggers. Considering how highly you guys rated cards like that glimmer mage that creates a token and draws cards through Survival, or the role model that's on the small side, but builds up tons of counters (and then recycles them), those cards are no joke. I think we're going to see a ton of play among those cards, especially orphans, which could easily just be giving you 2-3 Survival triggers a turn while attacking as a huge body. Escort + role model alone is a pretty brutal combo, considering how safely escort attacks with its 4 toughness. Veteran Survivor as well becomes really easy to enable through a lot of these cards.

While there are some good cards in DuskMourn, some of the art looks like leftover artwork from sets they did not use. Some of the cards do not fit the theme of a haunted house. Fear of Abduction looks like an alien from outer space. The same goes for Unidentified Hovership. I really like Exorcise, Glimmer Seeker, Overlord of The Mistmoors, Relunctant Role Model, Split Up (This card will work well with another card is played first), Toby, and The Wandering Rescuer. Thank you for the video Nerd Girl.
@stw71202 ай бұрын
The aliens are because "haunted house" is not the only theme, it's actually the theme that came second, the first theme for this set is "70s-80s American horror films references", and that means aliens, and a lot of other stuff.

There are some good cards in DuskMourn however, some of the artwork looks like old art that they never used because it does not fit the theme of this set. Arabella is a very strong card. I am not a horror fan either. DuskMourn will be released next week which is too soon. The Players hardly had enough time to enjoy BloomBurrow. I am not looking forward to several more price increases in 2025. I can't wait to watch your DuskMourn color reviews. Thank you for the video Nerd Girl.

First time I've seen a Boros mechanic that looked pretty neat, especially if you can throw delirium in and find quick payoffs for being aggro and winding up with artifact creatures in the graveyard. Love Bloomburrow bats, but at least in standard it's been an incredibly stale feeling set.

I'm also a big fan of epics for story telling, if you give us another set in this setting you allow for more in depth story telling. If we had received another set we could have had Ral catch up to Jace even if just temporarily and with that get Jace's view of what's going on here. We could get a better story for the dragonhawk instead of simply, "Oh, that's interesting." Please WotC, give us something to actually sink our teeth into
