Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum
Posted on June 14, 2017, 9:16 p.m. by RazortoothMtg
Unstable, the third Un-Set, is due to be released on December 8th of 2017. It will have 216ish cards and hopefully a masterpiece Storm Crow and Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded, just becuase. Begin the conversation? What are you guys's favorite picks for weird creature type of the set (because Unglued had Chickens and Unhinged had Donkeys)? What are some things you'd like to see?

Let's go Homonculus tribal featuring Fblthp as the lord. Just yes.

I've for the first time realized just how intricate and beautiful the art for Blood Artist is. I realize that wasn't the point of this, but yeah.

I can't wait for the lands and of course, Infernal Spawn of Infernal Spawn of Infernal Spawn of Evil.

TMBRLZ, Johannes Voss is really great. The original art for Blood Artist has the art from a different card from Innistrad in it being painted by the vampire.

So excited! This will probably be the first set I buy an entire box of in quite a while. I'm hoping we see some Planeswalker parodies, and of course some legendary creatures to finish the Timmy, Power Gamer and Johnny, Combo Player cycle. Mel, Spike, Vorthos?
June 15, 2017 4:11 a.m.
I expect to see Good Ass appear to defeat his rival Bad Ass

I'd really like them to directly lampoon some of their more recent stuff. Kind of like a reprint of Look at Me, I'm the DCI or one with even more silly banning ideas.
Also I'd be down for some Iguana tribal. lol
June 15, 2017 8:39 a.m.
Honestly I'm just excited to see what the lands will look like!!

I would hope that the set contains jokes on the bannings in standard and modern, and about the gate watch. But since the set comes out in December, I'm sure the cards are already decided on, so I'll be interested in seeing just how recent the jokes are

I'd love to see Wizards make fun of their more recent mistakes. Things like a CoCo parody called Dispersed Company or something like that, which gives the creatures to random players. That kind of humor would be fun, especially with how many mistakes Wizards has made in Standard recently.

subrosian, I also would like to see a Spike card to act as a counterpart to Timmy and Johnny.
I also would very much like to see a planeswalker who pokes fun at how powerful some planeswalkers are, and, specifically, how many players regard Jace as the "creator's pet" of M:tG.
June 15, 2017 9:32 p.m.
Would love them to make an alter-ego bolas! Imagine, Bicol Nolas, Friend-Helper

I want a GIANT ENEMY CRAB and a reprint of Old Fogey.

There are so many changes to the meta of Magic since the last Unset to poke fun at. I'm hoping for cards like:
"Cost of Playing Magic" - Instant - Counter target spell if the dollars and coins in your pockets have a higher total value than that spell's controller.
"Mtgo, The Online Ancient" - Legendary Artifact Creature - Spells you cast cost [5] less to play. Skip any step during your turn unless you pay [1]. (The steps are Upkeep, Untap, Draw, First Main, Declare Attackers, Combat, Combat Damage, Second Main, End)
"Standard Ban" - Enchantment - If a creature has been on the battlefield for 3 consecutive end steps of that creature's controller, or longer, exile it. Flavor: "Somehow R&D missed it, but we can correct the problem"
Keyword: Megamorphmeldform - If two creatures are on the battlefield with Megamorphmeldform, choose one to flip and flip it, one to transform and transform it, and return them to the battlefield combined as one creature. Put a +1/+1 counter on the combined creature.

I think a better design to make fun of MTGO crashes would be:
MTGO
Legendary Artifact
At the beginning of your end step, you may exile ~. If you do, restart the game.
Dam, MTGO crashed again. Guess we'll start again.
June 16, 2017 1:05 p.m.
Tyrant-Thanatos says... #21
nah, gotta flip a coin for that, you can't let the controller choose when the game is going to crash. :P
June 16, 2017 2:26 p.m.
RazortoothMtg says... #23
Like a planeswalker based off some memes? Maybe a Storm Crow or Fblthp planeswalker?

billium813 says... #24
Maybe Unstable will get us that long awaited Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded reprint?
June 16, 2017 5:34 p.m.
RazortoothMtg says... #25
Or a new version of him. Also, as I said in the main post, a masterpiece Tibalt. Also, does anyone else remember Maro saying he'd put a Storm Crow masterpiece if they made a third un-set? I think it was on Blogatog where he said he'd push for it to be in there.
June 16, 2017 5:39 p.m.
Tyrant-Thanatos says... #26
RazortoothMtg: Storm Crow should be the only masterpiece. That way every masterpiece pulled is a Storm Crow.
June 16, 2017 5:44 p.m.
RazortoothMtg says... #27
Or the whole set should be masterpieces... with invocation borders... and Storm Crow will be all 15 cards in every pack! Yes!
June 16, 2017 5:55 p.m.

Here's my new Tibalt:
Tibalt, the Laughing Stock
+1, Point and laugh at Tibalt, the Laughing Stock: Prevent all non-combat damage dealt to Tibalt, the Laughing Stock until your next upkeep.
-4: Each player exiles two random cards from his or her hand face down. Until end of turn, you may cast a random card exiled this way without paying its mana cost.
-6: Gain control of all plainswalkers until end of turn. Untap them. they gain haste until end of turn.

RazortoothMtg says... #30
No, it should be like this:
Tibalt, the real God-Pharoah
Starts with 1 loyalty
+1: Draw 7 cards, then One with Nothing
0: Tibalt deals X damage to himself, where X is the number of loyalty counters on tibalt.
-7: Gain control of all creatures you control. Tap them and they gain summoning sickness until end of turn.
With Bolas distracted, Tibalt usurped the throne of the God-Pharoah
Oops, I dropped something! -Tibalt's last words
June 16, 2017 6:24 p.m.
Blackest Lotus 0
Mono Artifact
Tap: Tear ~ and all other permanents you control into pieces. Add 1,000,000 colorless mana to your mana pool.
June 16, 2017 7:05 p.m. Edited.
Tyrant-Thanatos says... #32
Honestly I'd rather they not do any of the "tear into pieces" effects this time around. it's a great way to severely limit the supply of cool un-cards.
June 16, 2017 7:08 p.m. Edited.
RazortoothMtg says... #33
Add 1000000 BLACK mana, so it's the blackest lotus
June 16, 2017 7:08 p.m.
Lain Cightning one
Lain Cightning deals 3 damage to you. you may copy this spell for but you may not choose new targets for it.

Daquartzinator says... #35
Read the Flavor texts in order:
Double Play, Double Dip, Double Deal, Double Take, Double Cross.
Now read these:
Creature Guy, Save Life, Spell Counter, Deal Damage, Kill! Destroy!
WHO'S HYPED FOR ANOTHER LIMERICK CYCLE?!

Unstable screams Chemical/Nuclear Stuff so Why not....
New Clear Bomb- 0
All Players within 5-feet lose the game they are currently in where this card was dropped.
"insert witty response here (idk what to place for this)" - target opponent that responds with this can throw the card, wherever it lands, the previous effect continues.
"Wow this bomb is.....(you would see explosion effects covering the remainder of flavor text)"

Storm Crow, The True God 1U
+2 Pray to Storm Crow, draw 7 cards-5 Pray to Storm Crow, deal 1000 damage to all other players.-10 Pray to Storm Crow, your opponent(s) ante their decks, then lose the match.
2
Seems pretty balanced to me

RazortoothMtg says... #39
How about
Crow Storm
Enchantment
All creatures are 1/2 blue Bird creatures with Flying named Storm Crow.
June 18, 2017 10:45 p.m.
I think we should FINALLY get to see Hans get a card. You know, the guy that Ach!... is running from the lhurgoyf. I know "Ach! Hans, Run!" is already a card, but still...

We need a card called cat videos that lets you skip target players turn
June 19, 2017 4:06 p.m.
RazortoothMtg says... #43
YouTube 10
Legendary artifact
5, T, show target player a cat video: that player watches that video until your next turn and can't do anything while watching it. Doesn't untapped on your next untapped step

I know this won't happen but i would love it if there was a land called "Town of Richard"

RazortoothMtg... I just fell out of my chair reading your Tibalt, the real God-Pharoah. The flavor text had me crying.
June 22, 2017 12:16 p.m.
RazortoothMtg says... #48
Chasmolinker: Lol. I just realized that his +1 shouldn't just One with Nothing, it should discard X cards at random where X is the number of cards in your hand. Same effect, but uses that sweet randomness of OG tibalt.

Dude, it's time we move toward meme magic. Oh, and we don't fucking get fblthp, I'm done.
