Nitpick!! Raging Bull  is the other mono red common creature from Legends. It's the only one that can deal damage on its own. Wow, only 15% of readers have played with any Masters Editions sets. Get on mtgo, people! And thank you for making these sets for the minority of us who play Classic and Legacy online and are also into the nostalgia factor.

This is by far the best one yet, realy well done! Ejoyed the release a ton where I got to play Demonic Turot and Hoard powered by Sol ring! I remember playing with these guys in the very begining. I didnt play any other ME sets, but this one is for sure a great limited enviromant, its realy worth trying. Ton of great Commander staples in here should help people get into that format as well, Cheers!

Someone has to say the truth, so I will. First, I urge you guys to play with the set for a while before you disagree because it is a piece of crap.
Since I now know it was your idea Mr. Tom here's some feedback. What kind of genius(sarcasm) develops a set, puts several bomb enchantments in it such as Island Sanctuary, and does not put a single card that removes enchantments or bounces them in a set? What kind of cruel joke is that? Would Disenchant, Boomerang, or something like that have been too much for you? So many games are decided by lame enchantments. It's like you didn't even playtest at all.
The whole sealed/draft format revolves around Fireball and Sengir Vampire. Sengir is so much better than Serra Angel and Air Elemental because the black removal which everyone plays or splashes doesn't touch it but takes care of the others.
And thanks for no power 9
You fail

Sounds like someone 0-2ed a couple of masters drafts. =P
I always have fun drafting ME. Of course there will be bombs, this is true pretty much any limited set.

No actually I have done quite well. This is a development column, I am pointing out his development mistakes. And I know no one on this forum is as good as Magic as I am to do that, so I'm doing that in the hope Tom reads this. There are no answers to Control Magic in this set. None. Karakas was the best card in ME3, but at least we had Evil Presence to make it a swamp. This set is a development failure. It's moderately fun, it just could have been a lot better.

I don't like your tone, but you actually raise a good point. If that thing about the lack of enchantment kill is true it's a terrifying oversight.

The article was interesting, but it surprised me that the problems described in it weren't dealt with in the simplest and most straightforward manner. If the card pool from before Mirage was lacking in cards needed to make the Limited format work properly, why couldn't the set include a few cards from later periods of Magic? I doubt that people would have complained if they found a copy of Tarmogoyf  in a Masters' Edition booster.
Coming up with weird ideas to make everyone happy since 2008!     I have now started a blog as an appropriate place to put my crazy ideas.

Rise Limited was fun - would have been even better with less Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief  .
