MTG has many similar keyword variations across the ages. "Wither", "Infect", "Toxic". But also "Morph", "megamorph", "disguise", "cloak", "manifest". It might sound silly but it's more attempts to rebalance the mechanics. It's also important to mention that, in standard format (which should be the entry level format for most players), those don't usually coexist. Rotation limits the number of keywords you need to memorize from the get go, and the design team also doesn't hesitate to put reminder text, or simply the full keyword text if it's not part of the set's core keywords. Right now, we have toxic cards, but no "infect" card for instance. The only card I can think of that technically has "infect" (Etali Primal sickness) uses the full text instead of the keyword.

And if you do, please do this to maximize the players' enjoyment of each game, try to ascertain what decks/colors the Magic players like in Magic and try to find an equivalent in Yugioh.

38:30 no no no, One is not just a "patched" version of another keyword. They are separate and have their own use cases. Infect does -1/-1 counters and the creature doesn't do damage to players but gives them poison counters equal to the damage they would have taken. Toxic on the other hand does *both* damage to the player and poison counters but the poison counters don't scale by damage dealt. The way they play out in games is subtle but important. Infect decks win through sheer poison counters. Toxic decks can win through either poison or damage.

Phyrexian oil, also known as glistening oil, is sort of like magic nanotech that makes machine bits grow all over you, kinda like the Borg from Star Trek. Phyrexians spread it around and use it to take over the native life from a plane. In that way they're sort of the polar opposite of U.S marines. Marines show up to take everyone's oil, and everybody wishes they wouldn't. Phyrexians show up to give everyone their oil, and everybody wishes they wouldn't.

A vanilla 4 mana 6/6 is insane.. there is a thing called the vanilla test where if the mana cost is equal to it's power and toughness then it's a good card.

see you say "card is either very good or bad" but i argue that rotpriest is in the middle. yes it sees plays in standard but basicly not even on protour level and even in the smalle tournaments it has a medium winratio ... its maybe B tier deck ... maybe C

It performs very well competitively when domain ramp is one of the top decks, so I just have to say it’s good. I agree that it’s not always good though.

I find the rationale behind oil counters kind of fascinating. ONE limited was designed to be fairly proliferate-focused, so to both reduce confusion and limit the power of proliferate, every single effect in the set that places counters on permanents (besides Planeswalkers, of course) does it in the form of oil counters as a sort of “universal counter.” And of course, being oil specifically is just a nice bit of Phyrexian flavor.

Showing a common with saddle and plot (and reminder text) may have been a good idea to help farfa grasp the mechanics easier.

13:59 that card is sounding a lot like the MTGs version of destiny HERO diamond dude. Is both better and worse then DD but doing the main thing they both do similarly. Now that I’m thinking about it, this card is a lot better then DD.

When I looked at Archfiend of the Dross, my brain went to Harmless Offering. Get it down to 1 oil counter and then give it to your opponent. Their upkeep comes, they have to remove the last oil counter, and BLAAGH they're dead.
