Duel decks finally opens the door for Tamiyo, Field researcher. I’d give you $50 right now for that WUG color combination.

    Karn sucks in a single color node though.

    Allies, I assume. However you can’t play as him for the event. You have to play as either Nissa or the Eldrazi.

    @FindingHeart8 might've meant that new dope Rally mythic, which synergizes amazingly well with Gideon, Ally of Zendikar.

    Yeah, I know the card, it's good-but it wouldn't affect my already good ally deck. @wereotter pointed out why I was confused by the statement.

    By the way, I've just made a fun standard deck with Gideon 2, since the knight leader solves the token stack problem and some supports synergize nicely with his first ability (and his seven! support slots)

    This is why the Zendikar walkers need to have their mana gains buffed a little.  They have really great abilities and good deck parameters, but they don't get played because of their awful mana gains.

    I love Gid Z, but I can really only play him in some legacy PvE matches where I know he can handle it.  Too slow otherwise.  Same for Tezz and Sarkhan

    His mana ain't no problem for me. Less spikey, yeah, but not bad. Same for Sarkhan IMO!
    If you've got the cards for it -

    Ajanis last stand
    Crucible of worlds
    Forebear's Blade
    Dowsing Dagger
    On seras wings
    Sigil of the empty throne
    Seal away

    Isolate

    Lena, selfless champion
    Resplendent angel

    I maybe won't play it in coalition events, but it's reliable, fun and fast

    Yeah sorry I was super busy this weekend with the prerelease and this event, didn't have much time for the forums but @TheExaminer and @wereotter summed it up quite nicely :)

    I mentioned that in my feedback on the event. The 7 min refresh timer on the node was a bit much especially considering the Guilds of Ravnica prerelease this past weekend.

    Pretty sure they don't intend for you to use up every charge; the refresh rate is basically pointless, it's just QB.

    The 7 min refresh was great if you wanted to farm runes, which I did.

    Thanks for updating the title bken. At the time I didn’t see that  there was another one.
