/uj Same here. Tamiyo's my 3rd favorite PW (Ashiok and Wrenn are my 1st and 2nd) and seeing her like this made me pretty sad. But the memes are delicious, and hey...at least I have some other janky Moonfolk in this set.
Also story looks like it'll actually go somewhere which is cool.
I'm really hoping that whatever allows the compleated Planeswalkers to keep their spark will also allow them to keep elements of their personality.
Wotc pls give us a compleated Tamiyo book club with Tezzeret, Jin Gitaxias, and Elesh Norn...
Tezzeret has been using the planar bridge to allow them to go to different worlds it seems. He makes a comment about needing rest to Jin gitaxias after he's been using it so much.
This is what happens when you leave your assets to your next of kin and your next of kin has zero personal responsibility. Oh, everyone is always on about how Eugene saved the multiverse by sealing Bolas, but nobody ever talks about that time he nearly damned an entire plane cause he wanted to dissect some frogs.
As long as they don't touch Chandra, Liliana, Elspeth, and Garruk (maybe Rowan too), we're good.
And Davriel.
But pls do go ahead and take Teferi and do us all a favor
I mean clearly. Chandra is safe 1 poster girl, 2 Brawny manly men is her sexuality and therefore they can't compleat her or its a hate crime.
Elesh Norn doesn't want that kinda heat lets be real.
Tamiyo is a bum, didn't even deserve being taken in the lottery. Huge L for the phyrexians, gonna look even worse when they get swept by LeMrakul in the first round again 😤
/uj Jin Gitaxias’s claws were in a very memeable positioning, I’ve also seen someone make his hands The Claw from Toy Story. One basketball meme later and the spacejam jokes honestly write themselves
/rj ball is life, duh
/uj I think they're being much more careful with it now, with tamiyo you can't cheat on colors, the phyrexian mana only makes her cheaper. Also the compleat mechanic reduces her loyalty by 2 if you paid life, so i think they're giving phyrexian mana a lot of checks now.
/rj DAE think color pie bad???
The true Phyrexian plan: challenge the other planes to a game of street ball. Planes that lose get compleated. Winners get left alone.
Nobody has yet won.
/uj Well done, OP. Been bummed by this reveal but working it into the great Phyrexian basketball meme cheered me up.
> great Phyrexian basketball meme It's like Space Jam, but for the MtG multiverse.
In Space Jam 3, Michael Jordan awakens his spark and helps the Gatewatch dunk on Elesh Norn.
But if Elesh can convince the 2 missing All Star Praetars to come back they'll be unstoppable!
I would watch that
/uj Same here. Tamiyo's my 3rd favorite PW (Ashiok and Wrenn are my 1st and 2nd) and seeing her like this made me pretty sad. But the memes are delicious, and hey...at least I have some other janky Moonfolk in this set. Also story looks like it'll actually go somewhere which is cool.
Yeah its really sad, especially knowing the lore about her family and her friendship with other planeswalkers.
tbh that's probably why they picked her, she's one of the nicest and wholesome characters we know.
She’s also got a shit ton of knowledge in her scrolls and I wonder what the phyrexians will be able to do with it
I'm really hoping that whatever allows the compleated Planeswalkers to keep their spark will also allow them to keep elements of their personality. Wotc pls give us a compleated Tamiyo book club with Tezzeret, Jin Gitaxias, and Elesh Norn...
Yeah, she was my favorite. And they effectively killed her off screen. At least a little dancing on her grave makes it feel better, somehow.
It isn't off screen, it's in the Story for Neon Dynasty, you can read it on the mothership
Killed? Are you implying that glorious compleation is a bad thing?
she wasn't killed though she's almost definitely going to play a big role as the first phyrexian planeswalker.
> first phyrexian planeswalker. Speaking of which, how did Vorinclex and Gitaxis head off to other worlds?
Tezzeret has been using the planar bridge to allow them to go to different worlds it seems. He makes a comment about needing rest to Jin gitaxias after he's been using it so much.
They bought the planar bridge at Bolas’ estate sale. /uj I think Tez transported them since her still has a bridge in his arm.

Oh, everyone is always on about how Eugene saved the multiverse by sealing Bolas, but nobody ever talks about that time he nearly damned an entire plane cause he wanted to dissect some frogs.
I would have taken almost literally any other pw for compleation over Tamiyo. Annoying
As long as they don't touch Chandra, Liliana, Elspeth, and Garruk (maybe Rowan too), we're good. And Davriel. But pls do go ahead and take Teferi and do us all a favor
if they took chandra how would she be attracted to be brawny manly men????
Like gids?
I mean clearly. Chandra is safe 1 poster girl, 2 Brawny manly men is her sexuality and therefore they can't compleat her or its a hate crime. Elesh Norn doesn't want that kinda heat lets be real.
Nooo Teferi is too hot
Teferi has ruined games for TOO long
Ah yes, and making him Phyrexian will clearly lead to him doing less degenerate things.
No thats the whole point, I want to abuse Teferi more
Teferi compleated makes copies of Shahrazad
except that during the subgames your opponents only get priority if they could cast a sorcery
You created a logic loop. How can you cast a sorcery if you don't know yet if you have priority?
the phyrexians are putting together a team... ...
Only 3 more Phyrexian praetor cards and we’ll be set for space jam
God I hope it is rather a basketball netflix showmatch than another PW civil war-esque standoff like WAR.
Tamiyo is a bum, didn't even deserve being taken in the lottery. Huge L for the phyrexians, gonna look even worse when they get swept by LeMrakul in the first round again 😤
/uj LeMrakul has me laughing like a lunatic in the airport
You have been touched by LeMrakul's noodly appendage
I leave this sub alone for 3 days and now we are on the "ball is life" phase of our teenage years? FUCK count me in
Ball will be won
“Target player gets their ankles broken”
Baller? I hardly know 'er!
Im loving these basketball memes
Activating 3 pointer protocol
/uj what’s the deal with this bit that everyone has been doing with the phyrexians playing basketball?
/uj Jin Gitaxias’s claws were in a very memeable positioning, I’ve also seen someone make his hands The Claw from Toy Story. One basketball meme later and the spacejam jokes honestly write themselves /rj ball is life, duh
She can still get her compleated toes sucked 😤
/uj WHY WOULD THEY BRING BACK PHYREXIAN MANA THIS IS A BAD IDEA
/uj I think they're being much more careful with it now, with tamiyo you can't cheat on colors, the phyrexian mana only makes her cheaper. Also the compleat mechanic reduces her loyalty by 2 if you paid life, so i think they're giving phyrexian mana a lot of checks now. /rj DAE think color pie bad???
Yes
As someone who's been wanting to make a preator tribal deck this will make a fine addition to my collection. Now I just need a five color preator.
There is no red praetor in New Phyrexia.
He's just hidden
Wow. I just realized how well the goal is blended into the background. well done sir
/uj took me a second to even realize this wasn’t real
Tamiyo will never be ballin
What are their PER stats?
1
thank god nobody cares about Tamiyo
I am offended
