The creation of "Socery" speed cards may be revolutionary! Seriously though this is a quite limited card. Mayhaps it should be more like this: 1WW Sorcery If this is played in a subcame you win the subgame, otherwise start a subgame. |

Nobody encourage 'S*%$ˇ*ž&^úôd' players. In the same way as we should avoid Humility Opalescence nonsense, shouldn't we avoid sub-games?

I agree. Subgames are thumbs down IMO.

Even if subgames were OK, why make a card that is only useful with exactly one other card in Magic, which is out of print, never sees play, and still won't be good even with this card?

Thing is, would it really be a huge problem if subgames were more popular in Magic nowadays? I don't see any harm in it, chances are cards that use them would never see play so I can't see them having any problem on the tournament scene in the way that things like Chaos Orb and the Rebel mechanic did.

It would be a problem for every player who opened a pack and got a rare that was less useful than Pale Moon.

Hey! I used to play a Pale Moon deck in Extended! I'll have you know it wasn't too bad either. On the card: It'd be OK if subgames weren't such a big no-no. |

One With Nothing. The problem is that not only does it not combo with anything (even Bronze Bombshell had T2 interactions), but it doesn't combo with a card any Constructed player has likely ever seen, and it only works with a mechanic that will never ever come back. Aw. Hell. No. |

One With Nothing. One With Nothing is potentially more useful than Pale Moon. You could build a deck around One With Nothing if you really wanted to. It also interacts positively with graveyard-based mechanics such as threshold, flashback and reanimation. Pale Moon is a narrow hoser that barely works. |
