Leyline of Anticipation
Enchantment
If Leyline of Anticipation is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield.
You may cast nonland cards as though they had flash. (You may cast them at any time you could cast an instant.)
DemonDragonJ on Foundations Speculation and Discussion
8 months ago
I am very surprised to see that there is no thread yet for discussing the upcoming Foundations set, so I am making such a thread.
I shall not write and elaborate introduction, but there are many cards in that set in which I am very interested; High Fae Trickster is very powerful, and I intend to put it into nearly all of my EDH decks that contain the color blue (Tidal Barracuda and Leyline of Anticipation are still good, in certain decks); I simply must find a way to put perforating artist into my decks that contain the colors red and black; and Scrawling Crawler is an obvious inclusion for my Nekusar, the Mindrazer deck. Is Firespitter Whelp worth the 1 additional mana over Kessig Flamebreather for it to have flying?
Two cards that could have been good, if not for very minor and ridiculous drawbacks, are ravenous amulet and wardens of the cycle; in the case of the wardens, I undersand that WotC had their ability trigger only on their controller's end step, to avoid rendering Deathreap Ritual completely obsolete, but why is the first ability of the amulet usable only as a sorcery, when the second ability can be used as an instant? That severely limits its utility.
What does everyone else here say about this set? Are you excited for Foundations? What are you hoping to see, from it? I am very eager to begin discussion of this set!

Then how about Leyline of Anticipation, Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir or Crashing Drawbridge?

I started running Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir as a means to protect my combo turns in addition to the flash but yeah his cost is pretty steep. Leyline of Anticipation is nice when in your opening hand and that's about it so I think it might be time for a replacement. I like Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter but what do you think about Skittering Cicada instead? The body isn't as good without flying and the permanent counters but the upside is it dodges a stray Vandalblast or other artifact removal. One downside to these though is they don't let me flash in Yedora, Grave Gardener before I combo off.

I am having difficulty setting up the stack in this scenario. How many tokens are created and whether if I pay Ulalek, Fused Atrocity ability its copied as though it has been paid for 2 total. So, I have Ulalek, Fused Atrocity and Leyline of Anticipation with enough mana to cast the next 2 Eldrazi spells. I proceed to cast Glaring Fleshraker and Propagator Drone both at instant speed due to layline. My guess is this is what happens as far as the stack is concerned.
cast Glaring Fleshraker
Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity
Cast [[Propagator Drone]
Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity paying this one
The way I think it works is this.
casted Glaring Fleshraker 1 token
Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity
Casted Propagator Drone 1 Token
Copied Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity *paying this one
Then
casted Glaring Fleshraker 2 tokens
Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity *not paying
Casted Propagator Drone 2 Tokens
Copied Copied Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity
So I end up with 3 total Propagator Drones and 3 total Glaring Fleshrakers. Is my thinking correct?

Win Turn 0 vs Yu-Gi-Oh

If you actually playtest the deck, many times your hand is not that great.
- 8 of your tutors put the card only on the top of your library rather than into your hand. I suggest you play Demonic Tutor rather than Imperial Seal.
- You have problems with color fixing. You end up being unable to play your cards because you don't have right combination of mana. If your plan is solely to play only one turn, then Lotus Petal is better than Mox Jet or Mox Sapphire.
- With Dark Ritual and 8 Lotuses, It's reasonable to get to 5-6 black mana. Some 2 Ad Nauseam and/or Yawgmoth's Bargain would improve your consistency.
- Ceremonious Rejection looks bad. If your only plan is to play for one turn, play Pact of Negation. You'll save 1 mana and have more possible targets. It's better if you start the game. If your opponent starts the game, Ceremonious Rejection only works if you have Leyline of Anticipation. And if you have that, you should able to win even with Pact of Negation trigger.
- Play 4 Gitaxian Probe and 4 Street Wraith. Your deck doesn't care for life, and you need to get your relevant cards.
- If you are allowed to play 4 Black Lotus and 4 Blacker Lotus, then I assume anything is playable. If so, you forgot to include the most powerful card in the entire history - Contract from Below

My thoughts:
About the cards:
I wanted Kellan to be another adventure card. That would have made a great commander clash. Hoefully the people at mtggoldfish do it anyway.
2 mana Jace. Leyline of Anticipation just made Jace Tribal dangerous. Speaking of Dangerous, Rest in Peace and Torpor Orb are now Standard legal due to The Big Score.
If you run a Flashback deck on Commander, Legacy or Vintage, be sure to find a spot for Forger's Foundrys. Once you cast the spell from the graveyard using the mana from this card, you can activate the non mana ability and turn it on into a combo loop.
You can tell from the art in Smuggler's Surprise someone visited Theros.
I think Vraska Joins Up will eventually provide redundancy for, or replace, Archetype of Finality in a lotta decks. Mainly due to mana costs.
I don't know where Deepmuck Desperado is going, but into at least one of my decks.
When building decks with the desert lands with the etb 1 damage triggers, if yer running black, be sure to consider Piranha Marsh.
If you build a commander deck around the new Eriette card be sure to add Willbreaker for redundancy.
No commander cards giving griffins, horses, pegususes and/or unicorns mount. Why did they even bother with it?
What is the point of having a plot ability that costs more than the spell's mana value?

During your opponent's end step, right before your turn begins, cast Borne Upon a Wind (or start with Leyline of Anticipation in play). Flash-cast Barren Glory first, hold priority, and cast Apocalypse. (You do have just casually lying around, right?) Apocalypse resolves, emptying the battlefield and removing your hand. Barren Glory resolves and enters the battlefield.
As your turn starts and Barren Glory triggers on your upkeep, it checks that you control no permanents and have no hand (both true, thanks to Apocalypse). Since its conditions are met, it fully resolves and you win the game.
