That's why I was confused about the assertion that people were speculating about buyback, especially since buyback leads to horribly repetitive game-states that make me want to punch people.metaghosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18301191638894756414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-9559271495868006722011-08-02T15:27:44.406-04:002011-08-02T15:27:44.406-04:00This is awkward as a sorcery, if it's going to...This is awkward as a sorcery, if it's going to stick around it should just be an enchantment.<br /><br />Study in Pain 1BB<br />Enchantment<br />At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice Study in Pain and draw a card for each pain counter on it.<br />Whenever you lose life, put a pain counter on Study in Pain.<br /><br />Study in Solitude 1WW<br />Enchantment<br />At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice Study in Solitude. If you lost no life last turn, draw three cards. <br /><br />Still think it works better in White than blue, which gets card draw in exactly these types of situations.<br /><br />Draw from the well seems above the curve. I mean, while it might look innocent, this card is basically Greed without the casting cost. Plus it cantrips for free and is basically unremovable. That's scary.<br /><br />A less broken version might be:<br /><br />Draw from the Well B<br />Sorcery<br />Replicate B, Pay 2 life.<br />Draw a card.<br /><br />This makes it a one time effect, which is way better than being able to use it to draw a extra cards for 3-5 turns.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03194969481571035486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-2836659244726018522011-08-02T15:22:19.267-04:002011-08-02T15:22:19.267-04:00Flashback is what's returning, if the cards fo...Flashback is what's returning, if the cards found hidden in the D12 game code are accurate (why wouldn't they be?)Alex Spaldinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03747145070824848773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-21932170483400956192011-08-02T15:16:38.710-04:002011-08-02T15:16:38.710-04:00Has there actually been speculation about buyback ...Has there actually been speculation about buyback returning?<br /><br />Because that sounds like some speculation firmly rooted in "poorly constructed logic".metaghosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18301191638894756414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-54874155053684167762011-08-02T15:08:45.985-04:002011-08-02T15:08:45.985-04:00Can't argue.
