Wipping out a Colosus and Akroma on the 4th turn isn't fun?

This is the main point of the thread, to discuss radically cool things, like this card, its not special, but its hilarous, well upon the first look.

It's made that way for versitility, so you can distribute the temporary +1/+1 however you want. I think it looks useful.

Its just giant growth for one more with a little more flexibility. I dont see why they wont just preview some damn cool cards.

This will be HILARIOUS in limited, as it's a common.

RAVNICA IS SO GREAT.

I LOVE THE ART.
I LOVE THE CONCEPT.
I LOVE THE NEW MULTICOLORED BORDER.
I LOVE THE FACT THAT IT WILL BE LIKE THERE ARE 10 COLORS, WITH ONE MECHANIC FOR EACH ONE.
I LOVE THE GUILD SYMBOLS.

You're right though, it is kind of clunky. (This card, I mean.) Although I can't think of any way to word it... "Three target creatures each get +1/+1 until end of turn." implies that they have to be different, "Distribute +1/+1 among up to three target creatures until end of turn." probably has some weird loopholes, and "Distribute three +1/+1 counters among any number of creatures. Remove them at end of turn." is even clunkier.

Oh well, I still

You're probably right.

Target creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn, you may choose any number of targets up to 3.

That dosnt work, because it sounds like only one creature gets it, but you can choose from three or something. The way they worded it is fine, becasue they just wanted to be different. Im just saying I wish they would preview something exciting that makes us really want to get Ravnica, not these cards. I agree with you chalocks, I love everything theyve shown and promised outside the majority of the preview cards.

As of now it seems that we have 2 Ravnica threads, and the Spammy one seems to be getting enough serious discussion to make it the sole Ravnica thread for the time being at least. What do you think?
