That means we want Wizards to come out and announce this is a rule now, because it seems odd to say otherwise for no real reason
Below I look at the boundary point between the border itself and the rest of the card on both the front and back for 3 different cards: Fossil Dragonite Non-Holo: dragonite_border_rift_back27841664 7.34 MB back pattern: switches from 3-tone to solid color dragonite_border_rift_front27841664 6.05 MB front pattern: switches from 3-tone to solid color FRLG Bulbasaur common: bulbasaur_border_rift_back1392832 2.07 MB back pattern: switches from 3-tone to solid color bulbasaur_border_rift_front27841664 6.42 MB front pattern: interestingly maintains 3-tone pattern
If the customers found out stores didnt receive anything until a week later, then it would kill the generated excitement at the top of the marketing tentpole
As is so often the case with the best cards, it only costs you 1 red mana, perfect start
This is some high-class removal, especially considering that it has Flash on top of everything else
It doesnt hurt that the card has some potential in the competitive scene, either
