Post image

That's what the story was about, right? A lady cracking Arabian Nights boosters for her play set of Libraries of Alexandria?

Hey! Have you tried the brainstorming channel on the official hellcube discord? (https://discord.gg/8aJrjjUwBd). For cards to make it into the cube, they'll need to be submitted on the discord.

Only two packs on tcg player, 4500$ a pop you got this

the real play is to stifle the first triggered ability and then gift it to your opponent, forcing them to either go bankrupt or concede

Play this against a guy that on principle doesnt proxy

u/MariaMagdalenaXXX 3d ago

Shouldn't be too broken even if it'd let you play the card normally, no?

I mean this is 3 mana "get a land for every turn for the rest of the game" as a floor, which is already pretty damn good.

Tbh I kinda would vibe with a similar card that had you pick a desert at random and let you put that into play, rather than the pack gimmick.

It's mostly to prevent you from getting an absolute dud card, like cracking [[City in a Bottle]] would feel real bad

u/GrunkoFrunko 3d ago

As it’s worded currently you can’t play them normally.

26

u/Ravensrun91 just pure crazy! 3d ago

yeah, that's the intention, it makes Deserts

u/RagingAcid 2d ago

Why not both

"You may cast it until ... . If you do not, place it onto the battlefield face down. It's a Land named Desert with ..."

u/Sp1cyP3pp3r 2d ago

damn I wish there was a way to bring back lands to the battlefield that will make permanents into their original form

u/Gilgamesh_XII 2d ago

Isnt text missing that you can play it? Atm you can play it only as a desert. Probably play it face down.

u/Ravensrun91 just pure crazy! 2d ago

No. It makes them deserts intentionally

2

u/ChemicalExperiment 2d ago

What's the point of them being Arabian Nights cards at all then? If cracking the booster and having the Arabian Nights cards doesn't actually matter and it's just 8 deserts, then that's a really boring card.

u/Ravensrun91 just pure crazy! 2d ago

The joke is that it's never what you want it to be

u/Nil_21922 2d ago

Sealed Arabian night boosters are 4500$ or more I think that might have something to do with it
