Damn I see now why the ninja deck I drafted didn't work, I had the Modern Age saga thinking a 2/3 flyer would be great for ninjas, but I never wanted to ninjutsu it back to hand since the 2 turn looting wasn't that great, the Okiba saga though is perfect to bounce back and replay it. I thought the color pair was kinda weak since most 3 or 4 thoughness blockers would blank most ninjas, but having those crazy values plays with bounces, evasion and draining make it so good.

Sagas, reconfigure, equipment, ninjitsu, grave returning effects, top card banishing, the sheer number of value engines and options make for some super interactive gameplay.

If [that player doesn’t], [do something].” Edit: Basically, it forces the discard if you have no creatures and it is intended that way. Unless I'm misunderstanding the bug.

@raynorkuang100

There is a limited component to the mythic championship, but it's not nearly as big a deal as the constructed section (last year's winner was notably winless in limited). Other than that, there's regional tournaments and stuff, but I think Kenji has said he doesn't really attend those anymore. Also, he's very good, but it's not even guaranteed he would qualify or be invited if WoTC hosted such a limited-specific championship, most of the MtG HOFers are also very good at limited. I do generally wish WoTC would support limited better though :( Even if you qualify for Mythic Qualifiers each season through limited top 2000, they make you play constructed in the qualifier -_-

Have to ask since its actually affecting my drafts. Is there some sort of color or archetype imbalance that's been recognized or you know about? I 7-x'd alot(Platnium, close to diamond) in the first few days and now some of the drafts i've had are kind of crazy where its not clear what lanes/colors people are in till very late. I know people like to splash in this format but it just seems much more all over the place in the last few days. that incredibly late kami flare that happened to you has happened to me more than once so i'm assuming people are fighting over colors for some reason.

I started drafting with Kaladesh, and this set has been the closest to feeling like that format. I think with all the artifacts synergies plus vehicles, it makes sense, but the gameplay also feels fundamentally similar somehow. Needless to say, I'm really enjoying it so far (but maybe I'm biased because I'm 4 out of 4 for hitting 7 wins)

Had an incredible sealed today, two Silver-Fur Masters with something like seven or eight rogues+ninjas, and the cheap blue/black aggro cards to back it up. Aggro in sealed, easy seven wins. However, one of the most impressing cards in the deck was the Saika Trespassers; not for the creature, but for the Channel effect. It's just _really_ strong when you most definitely do have smaller creatures than your opponent and want to/have to get in. getting rid of two blockers for two turns was very much worth the 4 mana for me in that deck - you should try it next time!

Tatsunari is just silly good. I wonder if players are going to make enchantment heavy decks centered around it. If you lose the Keimi it's not a big deal as you can get Keimi back in play by playing another enchantment - so some kind of sacrifice play could increase the value even further though it isn't bad without that as Keimi gives small lifesteal for enchatments anyway. And (surpricingly) Tatsunari is a ninja too.. Can you "ninjutsu" token creatures and what happens if you do? mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Token "111.7. A token that’s in a zone other than the battlefield ceases to exist. This is a state-based action; see rule 704. (Note that if a token changes zones, applicable triggered abilities will trigger before the token ceases to exist.)" I suppose yes - so you could ninjutsu Keimi - but Keimi would disappear from hand - but that's not a big deal as another enchancement would put him/her back in play.
