Falling Star

Sorcery

Flip Falling Star onto the playing area from a height of at least one foot. Falling Star deals 3 damage to each creature it lands on. Tap all creatures dealt damage by Falling Star. If Falling Star doesn't turn completely over at least once during the flip, it has no effect.

@kamarupa I’ve settled on a worthy candidate. If I were to ask him to build around something (which I won’t because I don’t know him well enough to impose), I can think of no better card than Raging River. It’s as stupid and obtuse as Falling Star with a similar element of real world physicality, but it’s actually legal to play.

The same rules would have to apply though, to actually build around that as the locus card and actually play it (not circumvent it by simply building a discard deck or something like that and heaving it into the graveyard every time it shows up lol).

Caerwyn A number of these things is why I'm just spitballing the idea of this here. Obviously Falling Star and Chaos Orb need to be on my list and they aren't xD There are cards which just don't belong in a game like this. Looking at you Ante...

For Coalition Victory I see little reason for confusion over it referencing a creature's colors rather than identity. We have many cards that reference color all over the place with Bloom Tender and Sisay, Weatherlight Captain to name a few. All the devotion gods. To add to that we also have cards referencing identity with Commander's Plate. These are cards which often see play and I've never once seen anyone confuse a card's colors with the card's color identity.

Iona in the 99 doesn't feel like any more of a major issue to me than Void Winnower. I've played with and against Void Winnower and it has the same result more often than not of Iona. Frankly Void Winnower can be meaner, since it always hits every opponent. There are a number of these hefty lock pieces that come down and then everyone at the table groans or people even concede. I played against Iona when she was legal and I do see with Painter's Servant she has even more potential. I just see other cards that are just as effective and "unfun" not banned.

Sproet, I did add those cards to this list, initially but I then removed them, since I chose to list only cards that are banned for power level/gameplay reasons (i.e., dexterity cards, such as Chaos Orb or Falling Star); if I were to add those cards, I would also need to add all cards that reference ante and all cards of the conspiracy type, as well.

I would look in particular to older cards (premodern) and / or Seb McKinnon cards, as in my opinion those cards have the art style that would suit a tarot card.

No but you literally rejected analysis based on preconceptions. I don’t need a yes man. But I don’t need a no man either. Both stymie dialogue. If you want to actually discuss the decks, your thoughts, and offer constructive criticism, as welcome it. But I personally get rubbed real wrong when I’m told no or not to do something and given no alternative. That offers nothing to the conversation and rather shuts it down. That may not been you, but that’s what I’ve gotten. I’d like dialogue rather than dismissal. I’m not gonna be called out for looking for a yes man when you’re looking for me to ‘yes man’ about Recall. You could afford to be more self-aware. If you care to cite data rather than a conglomeration of untested opinions, I’ll be open to hearing it.

I don’t know how you buy the ‘mull to Force’ argument but dismiss ‘mull to Leyline’ when ‘mull to Bazaar’ already exists.

Are you hearing yourself get worked up over explaining the Vintage RESTRICTED list? Are you talking about Shaharazade (Chulandfall), Lurrus of the Dream-Den, Chaos Orb, Falling Star, and others? Or did you mean to say Legacy banned problem cards?

Hazankob: Chaos Orb and Falling Star arent expensive because they're banned, they're expensive because they're old and scarce.

Come on Wizards, unban Chaos Orb, Falling Star, and Shahrazad in vintage! And I don't see why Delighted Killbot is banned either. What makes it any better than Bronze Sable?
