2/16/09 Changes

Alright, so we laid out each color today to talk about the curve we wanted, and decided on a few changes as a result.

First, the changes:

Kor Skyfisher in for Kor Aeronaut

This effect is just never not good. The definition of a not-drawback.

Journey to Nowhere in for Scepter of Dominance

The scepter is really good, but the commitment to white is pretty high, and white has a lot of other cards that are more powerful with a strong color requirement such as Sacred Mesa and Eight-and-a-half-Tails

Bloodghast in for Malakir Bloodwitch

Conservation of vamp.... nevermind. We really wanted Bloodghast in and the curve for black seemed high enough.


Necromancy in for Makeshift Mannequin.

Seems better, right?

Searing Blaze in for Carbonize

Seems nice.

Thunderblust in for Changeling Berserker

Trying it out. Kazuul is another option here, but I'm not sure that's what red wants. Red doesn't have a lot of high end creatures though.

Rampaging Baloths in for Baru, Fist of Krosa

Again, green doesn't have a lot of huge monsters. Hey look! A monster.

So, now for the stats.

	Creatures	Spells	Avg Creature CMC	Average Spell CMC
White	35	25	3.7	3.6
Blue	31	29	4.3	3.0
Black	30	30	4.0	2.8
Red	35	25	4.1	2.3
Green	40	20	3.9	3.0
