It's something not often done in blue, but there is a lot of synergy with her husband Tom Bombadil and his Saga-centric strategy, and also with The Watcher In The Water's stun counters. Goldberry, River-Daughter is one of the most impressive mono-blue commanders printed in a while, thanks to her ability to move counters around. Truly, at last, Simic (green/blue) can do some silly things.Īs promised, Tuesday was an incredibly busy day, with dozens of powerful, interesting new cards revealed. On its own it's great, rewarding you for scrying and targeting your own creatures, but with Ivy the effects are effectively doubled. Gandalf's own sword finally makes an appearance, with Glamdring allowing you to cast instants and sorceries for free, provided you can dish out enough damage with the creature Glamdring is equipped to.Įlrond, Master of Healing will pair very nicely with another blue/green commander released recently, Dominaria United's Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief.
The only thing holding it back is the slightly higher equip cost for regular creatures, but on balance you can safely say Mithril Coat is going to be a very nice upgrade most of the time. Mithril Coat is oh-so-close to being a strictly better Darksteel Plating, allowing you to flash in a way to make a legendary creature indestructible for just three mana. Today was mostly focused on lower-end tools for limited play, but there are still some belters to be found. It's not quite a Dockside Extortionist, but it's not as far off as it may initially look. Cavern-Hoard Dragon may be expensive at eight mana, but it also could be a huge payoff when playing against any artifact deck, as its damage trigger makes you a Treasure token for each artifact they control. Of all the decks, The Hosts of Mordor is probably the most straight-forward, but there are still some neat toys here too, like Summons of Saruman allowing you mill an instant or sorcery spell and then cast it for free.
Arwen, Weaver of Hope could become a new +1/+1 counter staple, while Galadhrim Ambush is a new Fog-like effect that will give Elf decks yet more gas. There are some incredible cards tucked away in there, such as the Riders of Rohan's Beregond the Guard being a scary new tool for Humans decks, and Food and Fellowship's Banquet Guests making Food tokens a much bigger threat than they have previously been.Įlven Council is a really interesting deck, with new tools for both the massively underrated voting deck archetype, and the ol' faithful Elves. As mentioned, the big draw of the penultimate day of previews has been the reveal of all four Commander decks.
