Saying its only of those three things will look really bad in hindsight as this will be a sought after EDH staple and it will see play in other formats.Welcome to our website. But sure, playing a 7 drop mana rock is fine too.Its still ramp and its still fixing and its also a payoff card. ![]() But sure, playing a 7 drop mana rock is fine too.Īnd my point with the fantasy scenario I suggested is that if you can get 7 mana on turn 3 with Kinnan out, you're probably just happy to activate Kinnan. Or go infinite with untapping effects, but there are many ways to do that already.Īnd my point with the fantasy scenario I suggested is that if you can get 7 mana on turn 3 with Kinnan out, you're probably just happy to activate Kinnan. It's a large potentially powerful payoff - and the payoff is mostly more mana so that you can get to something even larger. But then it's not real ramp, and it's not real fixing. You're talking about this as a ramp payoff now, which sure, fine, that's what it is because it costs 7 mana. Ok, I feel like we've come a long way from your initial "this is a must-have in all decks" statement. The only way 7 is a "prohibitive" cost is if you run no land ramp or artifact ramp and you are only playing 1 land per turn over the course of seven turns. We are in a format that uses Cultivate, Hour of Promise, Sol Ring, Guild Signets, Darksteel Ingots, Dockside Extornists, and over fifty other thans that just accelerate your mana. Seven colorless is nothing in EDH, and you just proved it. But if you think Kinnan into Sol Ring into Chromatic Orrery is good, can I interest you in turn 1 Sol Ring, turn 2 Kinnan plus Chromatic Lantern, turn 3 activate Kinnan? (While we're talking about dream scenarios)Seven colorless is nothing in EDH, and you just proved it. You can't wait that long for your ramp or your fixing. Sure, but it costs seven mana in the first place. Sol Ring now can be a turbo guild signet or, with Kinnan, a strictly better Black Lotus. It is literally a single C away from activating Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy activated ability on the same turn you cast this rock. This fixes the mana of everything and it makes it own mana. Dryad and Latern only fix the mana your lands produce. 4-5 color decks maybe, but I won’t run this in any of my five color decks because chromatic lantern is just way better. 7 mana needs to be game ending stuff, this isn’t that. Quote from OblivionedOne »This card is sadly pretty bad. i'll eat one if it ends up more than 10 bucks. Its something everyone will fawn over during spoiler season and two weeks after release we'll forget it even exists. you'll see it jammed everywhere for about 2-3 weeks, and then you'll see it start getting dropped from lists. it'll see some fringe play in 5c decks and probably some fringe play in artifact oriented decks, and thats going to be it. This thing falls solidly into the forgettable mythic slot. you can do better than that, really you can. i also don't think this belongs in the majority of monocolored builds where it'll be a 7 mana mana rock that you have to invest an additional 5 mana into just to draw a single card. or it can net you nothing, all at the cost of 5 mana, that's pretty steep - granted anything less than that and its too strong. the using mana as any color aspect of it is something a lot of lower cmc already do or do something similar for cheap (chromatic lantern, dryad of the ilysian grove), its draw power can be huge. once you get up into that mana range you want to start winning, or win on the spot but this is just a rock. Its 7 mana, that's already prohibitively expensive. I really dislike the use of the colorless mana symbols when its that many, its just aesthetically unpleasing compared to the old way.Īs for the card.
