Well, time to fill up the web shooters, practice great power with great responsibility, and have usual comic shenanigans. Here is the Top Deck Though review thread for the upcoming Universe Beyond Spider-Man Set! #MTGxSpiderMan

There are ways around it of course but I can understand the frustration if you want to do some cheeky loops.

Do note, my previous assessment of the mechanic with the initial review is incorrect.

LevDev Shenanigans! @levdev.bsky.social · 10h

Ok, now that I learn sneak on creature spells work just like ninjitsu and the creature cast this way is tapped and attacking. The card is way better than I give it credit for.

Good to know.

Ok, that's good to know. I was reevaluating the card and realized I didn't figure that out yet. Ok, card is a lot better if it's sneak in a double strike creature.

Tapped and attacking

Hey @wotcmatt.bsky.social , quick rules question with sneak from this card. When casting for the sneak cost during combat, does it enter in attacking/tapped or not attacking/untapped?

Leonardo, Sewer Samurai
{3}{W}
Legendary Creature — Mutant Ninja Turtle Samurai

Sneak {2}{W}{W}

Double strike

During your turn, you may cast creature spells with power or toughness 1 or less from your graveyard. If you cast a spell this way, that creature enters with a finality counter on it. (If a creature with a finality counter on it would die, exile it instead.)

3/3

Hey all 👋 my living situation has dramatically changed. I should be fine for a few months, but if you'd like to help me make - significantly increased - rent, then any change would be greatly appreciated.

As a standard player....I am not going to lie if I said next year is making me sweat.

Typo at the ending there. I meant proof of concept

Seriously I WISH those blokes try to participate in a weekend game jam and eat some humble pie at the amount of time and work it takes to make a period of concept demo/minigame

Also... seriously, if you have a favorite iteration of the character, you can just proxy or alter the card.

Let people enjoy things and cool character designs.

Granted...most of these blokes drank the Kool aid to the point that anything that doesn't cater to them is "woke". Rolls eyes.

LevDev Shenanigans! @levdev.bsky.social · 1d

Seriously, it's a cool iteration of the character that from what people told me is a nod to the mirage comics.

I think I might make a short video on the disconnect between the ub criticism with established magic voices vs the reality at major cons celebrating ub content with new fans. Its night and day. It should be talked about.

Yeah, I am not going to give these blokes any time since... yeah.....it's pretty obvious what they're trying to do.

I couldn't give a crap. It literally doesn't matter.
The character has had multiple interpretations since 1992.
Stop playing Magic if you can't be a decent human being.

Goben, for all his flaws, never knew what fate had in store. Once free, Fleem only knew to do 3 things...grow, propagate, and consume.

My Ninja Turtles card from Magic the Gathering was revealed!

Art from the Magic Card “Turtles Forever”
The four teenage mutant ninja turtles appear in a multiverse crossover. Donatello appears to be from the old live action movie, Raphael from the Fred Wolf TV cartoon, Leonardo from the Magic the Gathering TMNT universe, and Michelangelo from the Mirage comics. They are fist bumping and noogie-ing each other in front of a bright cityscape background. Ninjas lay scattered and defeated behind them.

We're waiting for November....

LevDev Shenanigans! @levdev.bsky.social · 1d

I think for the most part it's to combat nostalgia of previous states of the game that can fuel the current criticism at times. Magic is a great game, but, it did/does have its awkward moments to say at the least.

That is a fair rebuttal. Like I said, there are legit concerns and complaints but the slop rhetoric gets old pretty quick.
