Cool design! Haste is not really a white-blue ability though. If you give him vigilance, he can use the tap ability also when attacking.
The backside abilities aren't worded exactly right, but I got the gist :)
Are you interested in a correct wording?

I get that :)
I was just so surprised the actual name that I typed didn't appear, but the Omenpath version did :)
I added the syntax and that works great, thanks!

It is A solution. Also, bit rude.

Cool! Well, if you ever need a word, let me know :)
But indeed we all learn English in school as well. My 5 year old is already learning some English :)
Fijne dag verder, Jake! En succes met Nederlands leren!

Just wait until you hear what the Dutch word for tree is :)
But awesome that you are learning the best language in the world ;)
May I ask why in particular Dutch? It isn't like the easiest to learn I have heard, or the most spoken in the world :)

I have an Ognis deck that is basically a haste kindred deck 😁🤟
And my John Benton deck is also reaaaaally fast!
And I used to have a Yoshi/Keleth deck that was so fast the cards started smoking 😋
I love slower decks as well, but a good fast aggro deck is a lot of fun!

Fun mostly! 😁
And it makes for faster games. Maybe it gives a chance to play that 3rd or 4th game in a night!

Is that a real thing? Lands with activated abilities that also tap for mana can hurt your mana base if they only tap for C, but who is choosing not to tap it for mana if that is necessary? I don't think that playing more lands just because you play utility lands you want to activate is a good idea.

100% agree, especially with Maze. This is not a land for purposes of counting how many lands you play.
This is basically a 0 mana spell that costs a land drop :)
So you really need that extra land to make up for it!

This is the correct answer. No choice, always front side! :)

I feel it is the most fun. I don't mind staples, I mind if a deck is mostly staples. I know they are good, I have seen them before. Now show me some jank 😁

I have 24 decks, and I have already cut back (and then build new ones 😋).
One bracket 1 deck, 20 or so squarely in bracket 2, and the rest could hold its ground in bracket 3, but are more 2+.
B2 is my happy place :)
Most recent is B1 Fifth/Yasmin with pingers, and I love my Ognis and Baba!

Hi Matt! Thanks for the confirmation! I got asked the question and as a former judge I wanted to be 100% sure to give the correct answer 😄
Also I wasn't expecting a quick response, I live on the other side of the Atlantic 👍😁
Have a great day! 👻

I get the balancing, but I think it would not be the way to go.
I really don't want the hybrid rule to change, but probably the impact would not be very big.
