  1. ===Common Misconceptions From Misinterpreting MTG Rules===
    1. Lands with mana costs cannot be cast. They are played as a land. See rule 305.9.
    However, it still has a mana value for abilities that care about such.

    2. Ability words/Flavor words do not have rules associated with them. Such as "Channel", "Imprint", "Revolt", "Heavy Power Hammer", etc. Removing/adding the word to an ability does not affect anything, other than being flavorfully wrong.

    3. If "X" is undefined on a card (either missing X in casting cost, part of the ability cost, or the ability itself doesn't define it), the player defines X to ANY value. See rule 107.3f.
    Example card: [[Hatred]]

    4. A "Creature – Vehicle" does not need to be crewed, because it is a creature already. Crewing it would just add the Artifact type.

    5. On a DFC, if either of the faces has "morph", you do not play it as the backside. It gets played as a 2/2 Morph creature, with both faces hidden. See rule 712.15.

  2. Neithes of the Only Dragon would have potential in Amulet Titan. Plus, with multiple copies, each of them triggers separately and you can put loop lands like Simic growth chamber and float all the mana.

  3. 24:35 The question then becomes would nonpermanent cards with a shape in the name be castable by Twisted Goblin.

    Say for whatever insane reason you wanted to play Square Up

    Mana Cost:

    1 Green or Blue

    Converted Mana Cost: 2

    Types: Instant

    Card Text: Target creature has base power and toughness 4/4 until end of turn.

  4. First half of this video:
    (0:12) Viashine's Sedgon: Word salad, shred. First sentence doesn't quite make sense within the game rules. Maybe if it was something like "Target elf or creature must attack this turn if able.", then it would be doable. Also, I hate it when my aksweed fields get looded, and then my insides get mocked by tori. 😛
    (1:09) Blazing Snoop: Fair, ship. This is pretty interesting, being most useful for Boros and Naya creatures… Oh, wait! It's a sorcery, not an enchantment! Argh, that makes this card fail to work at all. Change "Sorcery" to "Enchantment", and this would be doable.
    (2:04) Eightenge Shrine: Word salad, shred. Yeah, I'm totally lost on this one.
    (4:33) Mind Canon: Super duper OP! Shred then burn the pieces! Mind=Blown! We can't let this insane extra turn power be canon! IT DANGER!
    (5:14) Oh, whoops! It's not an aura? Whew, crisis averted! Don't have to worry about this providing easy extra turns, unless maybe there's some weird combo that can be done.
    (6:52) Windstonge Titan: Hmm… No mana cost, but there is a post there asking how you would cost Windstonge Titan. Keeping in mind that its toughness is blue, I think I'd make it cost UUUUB, so you'd need be much heavier in blue than black to cast it, but this would give you an 8/8 creature with vigilance, trample, and Sengir Vampire's effect for 5 mana. (The Sengir Vampire effect is why I put one black mana in its cost.)
    (8:09) Winter: Word salad, shred. Welp, the middle ability has a major "disasbaching" problem. At least its bottom ability could function if you're playing Planechase. Just be sure you have 2 mana open to cast it when someone rolls chaos on the planar die.
    (9:59) Thoughttealer Bears: OP, ship then ban later. Adding a time counter to a creature with Vanishing could be handy, and even if you don't have something with Vanishing, you still get another creature card added to your hand for some nice card advantage. And, this is coming from a 2/5 body that costs only 2 mana. To make this not OP, it should probably cost at least 4 or 5 mana.
    (12:30) Pangergoniu: Fair, ship. Underwhelming stats for its cost, but if you can play any card of your choice, it could be busted. Still, you need to get this 7-mana guy into play, then wait a turn (or give it haste), then cast a legendary spell, and then attack.
    (15:07) Neithes of the Only Dragon: Fair, ship. Yeah, this effect seems very strong, but it is symmetrical. It's totally doable.
    (17:56) Tric Mire: Fair, ship. Ooh, this one's pretty neat as well. Totally Zibers.
    (19:17) Cryptic Armor: Word salad, ship anyway to use in an Un-set, just for that pun.
    (19:45) Accursed Scenter: Fair, ship. Neat combination of abilities there.
    (20:56) Preyetic Pursum: Fair, ship. The AI made a winner of a Planeswalker here. The extra turn may seem too easy to reach, but considering what the mana cost of an extra turn typically is with 5 mana for Time Warp, it's totally fair.
    (22:42) Twisted Goblin: Word salad, ship for Un-sets perhaps. I think I'll play the triangle.
    (25:01) Shattered Troll: Fair, word salad, ship. Nothing is done with the player choice in the first ability. However, exchanging swamps for 5/5 flying demons with its second ability totally Zibers with me!
    (25:50) The comma and colon are used properly. The colon comes after the cost, while the comma is there to separate different parts of the cost.
    (26:25) That's a very colorful Plaza of Heroes. But yeah, that text is hard to read.
    (27:21) Kogl Tyrant: Fair, ship. The AI is being very good with its lands so far today. And no, I don't think it's OP. It uses up your land drop and doesn't produce mana, and you need metalcraft, a creature in the graveyard to revive, and an instant or sorcery that deals damage. Maybe it can be broken with certain combos, but I still think it Zibers.

  5. Viashane's Sedgon (first card) does work, though worded weirdly. If you target a creature or elf (so you can target elf tribal cards, lol) and it's attacking the card does nothing except be cast and target something (plus one storm count!). If not attacking, you get the scry and card reveal effect. It's a really, really bad card, but it does work.

  6. Vanishing uses time counters, so you could extend the life of your vanishing creatures. I think it would probably be fine to print tbh.
    Also “The Shape” is one of the names of the killer from the movie Halloween, also known as Michael Myers.

  7. The lost player is a legend that isn't well known but we should all find out about. The lost player went on a expedition to find a legendary card of immense power and has yet to return. The tale claims that he either found it but was lost to madness or that he sealed the warehouse that it was in off from the world fearing that its power was too much for 1 person, others tell that the ultimate card was one with nothing and this ultimate truth led him to self exile.

  8. Welp, I can no longer access RoborosewaterM freely anymore, unless I make a Twitter account, which I'm not interested in doing, because Twitter just made it so that people without an account cannot view anything on Twitter at all anymore. That's so dumb.

  9. I love the flavor for Tric Mire. The art shows like a wizard's tower on the outside of town. It can't summon creatures, and won't do the same thing twice in one turn. So it's like the town wizard / alchemist who doesn't like to get his hands dirty but he'll help out by casting magic spells but only if you don't ask him to do the same thing over and over because he hates that. 10/10 flavor from the AI.
