D&D General MtG Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Spoiler Thread

[Tales and Chronicles]

You can only get the token if you assemble the hand, the eye and the book. So it makes sense that venca is complete here

aaaaaahhhhh, makes sense!

I was like: ''if the guy can just sprout a new hand to replace the old one, he should totally start a business of selling ''hands of Vecna'' to unsuspecting travelers''.

I mean, in my head-canon that is what he did. Why else are there so many hands and eyes going about the multiverse? He is a god of secrets, ya know?

I dunno how viable a play Vecna is

In competitive? Not at all, but sure is fun!

If you'll notice, his left hand is reattached, and so is his left eye, no doubt from the ritual involving the Book of Vile Darkness floating in view. I dunno how viable a play Vecna is, but A+ for flavor win.

Depends on the format, but for Standard at least, not until Fall and Eldraine finally leaves standard. Brazen Borrower just kills any major token maker, and it's pretty ubiquitous. At least that's what I've heard ... I do not play any 60-card Constructed format.

It is something I'd want to try and pull off in Commander, though.

Speaking of ... yeah, I'm totally into the Esper Dungeons of Death deck. Stealing dudes and saccing them to progress through a dungeon? Sounds like fun. Looking forward to the Friday full reveal.

That's the deck I want too, but probably gonna run it with Nihiloor instead of the face commander. (And adding Xanathar in, because I suck)

I mean, we are talking about lore here. Retcons are kind of a thing.

This is a lot like saying Superman isn't from Krypton, because the very first comic strips didn't mention Krypton...

TSR explicitly said that they were different. The 5e retcon is not something I acknowledge. And the very first paragraph of action comics #1 says he was from a distant planet.

I mean, if it's in the DMG, it's the Lore the Magic cards are working off of.

The original art for this set is selling at very high $ value compared to previous sets. Very popular with collectors.

I just hate retcons. So I ignore them. It wasn't a retcon for Superman's planet to be named Krypton later. It was just a clarification. Had he originally been from Kansas, then it would have been a retcon. The Orbs of Dragon Kind and Krynn's Dragon Orbs were not the same artifact until 5e. Well, maybe 4e. No idea of the lore of that edition.
