What, no end of turn fact or fiction you lose. Otherwise, I think a copy or 2 of Cryptic Command might be nice if you ever get to ult taimyo. Possibly 1 more land in place of a counterflux. Overall,I like it.

Tbh though, the bigger issue i see isn't the flavor missing but rather only having 5 red mana sources for 15/16 red cards.

Artifact burn with no Pyrite Spellbomb or Shrine of Burning Rage ? Seems like an auto include on flavor alone.

Good luck if you do. I have yet to play it, so let me know if its any good.

I think you could probably work the hall of heliod into the deck in place of a fetchland. That and maybe include a couple talismans/signets to help empty your hand faster for ensnaring bridge. Otherwise, it seems reasonable to me.

hellokitty6666666666666 I am well aware Ashiok doesn't stop my opponent from searching with Maralen out. The idea is that Ob Nixilis will punish the forced search by Maralen. Not to mention, Ashiok helped hate on uro and the other graveyard decks. It may not be as needed now that uro is gone.

My guess is that he would not want to lead (most likely competitive) players that certain things are more dangerous than other things. Dangerous being powerful in this case. Using future set knowledge could also influence potential sales in the secondary market. For example, if a currently seemingly underpowered tribe or mechanic rates high on the storm scale, then investors might pick up the more useful cards in that area of play. If the speculation pays off, its almost like having insider information [very vaguely (sp?) saying this]. If this didn't happen, then there could be potential ill will towards him/the company for misleading information.

Another thing that could be considered is the possibility of leaking future set knowledge about what might or might not be in the set. This could almost tie in to the rabiah scale with similar reasons.

But, honestly the most likely reasoning is that given the long time frame they work ahead and with many things changing over time/development with balance (haha, I know), he probably can't give an honest evaluation towards the inquired scales.

All I really have to contribute is that entomb isn't modern legal. You could play it in legacy though.
