Rating AI Generated Magic: The Gathering Cards

[@eaglest0554]

I love the flavor of "Legendary Planeswalker- Tired" only having one ability that drops it for the exact amount of loyalty it starts with. It just comes in, throws some life at you, and goes to take a nap.

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

Even if we go with "every keyword ability", it's still gonna be a mess since some abilities got un-keyworded (Landhome), while other got turned into keyword (Ward)

[@akihitokoizumi2474]

It would have fading with no counters so would die

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

@@akihitokoizumi2474 Fading only works during upkeep (remove fade counter, sacrifice if you can't). So yeah, it'll be dead your next turn, but it's still gonna hang around

[@naphackDT]

55:30 it just bricks the game if you have any card with a persistent effect that makes you reveal the top of your library like lantern of insight, for example. You will just keep putting the top card of your deck onto the bottom till the heat death of the universe.

[@Sheevlord]

Nobody is talking about the fact that there's Yoda on the artwork for Oji, Goblin Snoop.

[@unaffectedbycardeffects9152]

Flash specter was misunderstood quite a bit. After it's drafted it gives you the option to give flash to any card drafted by reveling it (so you exchange surprise factor for power). Also, it can't untap, as the counter is removed instead of untapping, not as well.

[@roguebanshee]

That was definitely the most frustrating rule fail of Nika for this stream.

[@EricDMMiller]

Yeah that was bad. 😢

[@Todesnuss]

The bit with the counter is just in reminder text though. We don't ususally count incorrect reminder text either. By the rules of the game that text doesn't exist. Far more frustrated by the fact he thought gods could take damage while not being creatures.

[@profwoland8942]

23:20 Technically Crowd of Sanity does do something; it commits a crime.

[@whaleofdarkness]

I come from a land ding unders. What color will I choose you wonder. Can't you feel, can't you feel the planeswalkers? You better run you better take cover.

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

9:50 that includes Phage's ability, right? Second-turn win con, I love it EDIT: Actually, scratch that. It also gets Abyssal Persecutor ability, so you're stuck in limbo

[@naphackDT]

Remember, any spell cast is also exiled and replaced with another card which can not be cast because players can only cast one spell each turn. But rejoice, it will immediately sacrifice itself to create a 20/20 Marit Lage token. The only question is whether you will ever get there or whether it will create some manner of uninterruptable infinite loop with itself and brick the game beforehand.

[@isHavvy]

@@naphackDT Pretty sure if you have every ability, figure out the static abilities first and then choose the order of other abilities that automatically trigger.

[@jm7781]

Thunder Roil Rakdos also gives "Defender" so the creature with all abilities can not attack.

[@rastiabertoy8579]

But if it's already attacking defender means nothing

[@_Emrakull]

@@rastiabertoy8579 but it cant attack in the future. though, i'm pretty sure it will just straight up kill the opponent because of unblockable (all landwalks, hoursemanship, ect.), and poison/toxic 10

53:02 Reason-Dart is unreasonable, crowd of sanity was insane...

[@TheKrazyguy75]

That epic card (Fire Force) requires targets though. So if you don't have two creatures to target, it fizzles. That said you can target opponents' creatures at worst. But if your opponent boardwipes then only plays a single creature, they can beat you to death with it.

[@creepykoala7255]

It says up to 2 creatures, which means you can choose 0.

[@tarille1043]

1) You create targets because you create your 3 zombies. Your opponent can't board wipe while the card is in the middle of resolving. 2) It is "Up to two" target creatures. Meaning you can choose 0 creatures.

[@stevefurrier9932]

Is it a reference to the Fire Force anime?

[@naphackDT]

@@tarille1043 You can't target creatures that don't exist yet. Example: Turn 1 land, elf. Turn 2 land, cast epic spell targeting elf. Elf becomes 2/2, 3 2/2 tokens enter battlefield. Turn 3 epic targeting zombies. 2 zombies become 3/3, 3 more 2/2 tokens enter battlefield. Opponent boardwipes on their turn. Turn 4 epic with 0 targets, 3 2/2 zombies enter battlefield.

[@tarille1043]

@@naphackDT Cards resolve in the order that abilities are on the card. Since the spell doesn't NEED a target to occur in the first place, you will always get the 3x 2/2 zombies before you get to the part where you can then choose up to 2 target creatures to put counters on. Therfore you will ALWAYS have 3 viable targets to choose (If you wish, you don't have to) If it was written "Choose 2 target creatures to put +1/+1 counters on. Summon three 2/2 zombie token creatures" Then you'd need valid targets for the spell to activate in the first place and wouldn't have the zombies until you've met the targeting criteria.

[@alexandersean4708]

2:19 I looked it up, there’s 4. They are: Fathom Feeder Mindmelter Sire of Stagnation And Ulamog’s Nullifier.

[@TheJadeFist]

54:50 I'd actually think an ability for "Whenever a player reveal a card, you may put onto the battlefield under your control if it's a permanent card" would pretty sweet actually. Take all those cards that have the downside of giving your opponent the ability to look for something, and then just steal it instead, or to make sure they can't use their fetch lands anymore without just giving you a land.

[@SushiElemental]

Risen Bals always have my attention

[@DarthMetool]

There are 6 or 7 devoid cards with black and blue in the mana cost.

[@itzplant3196]

27:30 Spree with no spree lmao

[@eaglest0554]

I believe thunder roil rakdos would only give all abilities until the end of combat. "Whenever it attacks, target creature has all abilities" means when it's not attacking, they don't.

[@johngreenwald2954]

Honestly, that ooze would actually be a sick Commander in itself. No one would want to kill it because it buffs its ability every time you cast it. The best someone could do would be to cast a spell to cause it to lose its ability. Then you kill it yourself and recast it to buff it up. That card would be awesome. The initial casting cost should be higher, but still an amazing card with a unique, yet workable mechanic.

[@AshBlossomWorshiper]

27:39 maybe its like that one mtg card that drops onto a table and destroys stuff. Your opponent has to literally kick it

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

Oji, Goblin Snoop actually works pretty well with impulse draw ("exile, you can cast it" mechanic). It's not really broken, and I can see it being a mythic in some future set

[@Reluxthelegend]

1:16:17 also you can still activate abilties, so you can still channel, and use stuff from the graveyard and and Field

[@Vinterloft]

1:00:00 FINALLY an amazing flavour text and he didn't even read it 😮‍💨

[@Powerbomb323]

40:22 Because with this card, you could reveal your own hand. So cards that benefit from being revealed would activate

[@oz_jones]

Gatherer of Velis Valor would be a fun commander. Are there better UBRG commanders? Sure. I am just a sucker for demons in a suit.

[@imben1256]

Tainted tutor is actually busted in combo decks, to boost consistency. You run 4 of these and exile 28 cards from your deck, there are 32 cards left in your deck. If you have a 3 card infinite combo, running 4 copies each that's 12 copies of combo peices. Keep the card draw effects as the other half.

[@isHavvy]

You can do better than that. If you don't need the other copies once you have them in hand, you can just remove the other copies from your deck.

[@diegovasquez840]

I think Carnival just puts you in some kind of magic purgatory where you have to leave the LGS

[@chaptmc]

48:27 Ride the Gravitron like a Boss XD

[@Rennlia]

It's funny how every exile player card gets shafted away, yet it's just setup for the card that adds exiled player to your library, we playing inscryption magic now

[@Frisko555]

I think Thunder Roil Rakdos's target would typically die to some form of Landhome.

[@fjodorstjulkins5179]

Waited 2 weeks for that! Zibers ahoii!

[@TheJadeFist]

[Tainted Tutor], IT DANGERS!, "Search your library for seven cards and exile them." That's actually extremely broken for 1 mana. Even if you don't have a way to play the exiled cards, this is some serious deck thinning tech. 1 Copy of this card, effectively means your deck has 8 fewer cards in it, and you can pick which 8 get removed. That means you're that much more likely to draw what you need for a combo set up, or just based on match up. If you got anti flying tech like a Racking Canopy for example and you see they have no flying, you can just remove in the middle of the game with the sole down side of 1 green mana. It sounds kinda stupid, but that card would be extremely broken. It's like the reverse of a side board. This is like fetch lands on crack in terms of improving deck consistency. Absolutely IT DANGERS!

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

39:42 - I'm pretty sure under tournament rules you can reveal your hand only one, and take a shortcut to whatever the X was, though

[@gnarl80fi]

tainted tutor would work. You could clear out some of cards out of the deck you don't need at that stage of the game, for example lands and small creatures and other cards not preferable to draw anymore.

[@oz_jones]

1:24:58 I remember Burrowing being a keyword ability, forgot how it works. EDIT: It was an enchantment that gives a target creature Mountainwalk. So, no.

[@Sheevlord]

Sunder Spores artwork looks like psilocybe mushrooms. AI was high when it came up with it

[@tmon3y777]

Angel, Ring of Yangel's Findrop is great with Muldrotha. Just res and kill it every turn for some life and you're probably playing a deck with lots of stuff in the graveyard.

[@TheJadeFist]

Exiling a player is like a ring-out in a fighting game. So they lose due to ring out.

[@Deyji161]

Final cauldron + Caretaker's talent would be absurd

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

So if I read it correctly: the Risen Bals ability gives us the copy of each permanent we control. Can it still copy itself as part of its ability? If so, that's like extra broken

[@lwinter8181]

"RUbal Dreamer" combos with Balance

I have to respectfully disagree with ToiletDuck64 about flavor text. The picture is also for decoration, and yet cards with a picture are a lot more interesting than the ones from Uncurated that have no picture.

Lol... I somehow love how AI (like Googles Alpha) is able to learn Chess within 8 hours and then is unbeatable by any human chess master but here AI still manages to screw so many Magic cards up. I guess the rules are somehow chaotic in nature in Magic somehow.

[@PixlRainbow]

That's because chess has at most just 6 different pieces, which means only 6 "ability texts"/behaviours to keep track of, and the challenge just comes from how they are used together in play. Magic has far more variation in how cards are described and used.

[@alistor1213]

I hate sieges because of the Morton's fork they present if you're playing against them. My opponent gets an effect while it's in play and they get a stronger effect if I let them kill it? I think battles and sieges should be reworked so that the opponent gets the front side ability, giving them both a strong incentive to defend it and you and even stronger incentive to kill it quickly.

[@sebbbi2]

All abilities include the Phage insta kill ability and protection from everything (is unblockable). Opponent just loses no matter what. Unless there’s something among those abilities that kills you or that creature first.

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

Sure, but you *also* get the Abyssal Persecutor ability on it, so you can't win anyway. Tough luck

[@sebbbi2]

Funny card :)

[@sebbbi2]

Oh, but it also has many sacrifice itself abilities. You put Phage kill trrigger on stack and sack itself :)

[@wojtektaracinski7977]

@@sebbbi2 not sure about that. Sac abilities are pretty much always triggered, and since Rakdos ability activates mid-combat phase, there aren't many occasions for them to work. Closest is "sacrifice after it attacked" (like Decayed)

[@naphackDT]

It also has dark depth's ability, so it will instantly kill itself to create a 20/20 Marit Lage token.

Actually yeah, banishing 7 cards of your choice from your deck face up would be busted in yugioh, even better than pot of greed or graceful charity for the right archetypes, and even in others, taking 7 cards of your choice out of your deck would be great, prevents you from drawing the cards that are only there to fuel the engine early later on in the game and such.
