Our challenge review block comes to a close with some wild text-changing effects! Ogre-load, Servos, Carbo-load, and maybe the hardest to track card we've ever reviewed (in a fun way)! Join Beacon of Creation's Discord: https://discord.gg/t88Vpwh Show Notes and Images: https://beaconofcreation.com

Summer challenge time continues! We've got a whole new set of challenges and cards to review. Text changing effects can be quite tricky and unusual, so it takes a lot of unpacking to get to the root of each of them. Stay tuned for some cool Planechase draft technology!

Incarnations embody the feeling of an "exciting cycle". Our community members sent in their exciting cards that also have the potential for 4 more cards in other colors.

Tune in as we unpack and understand another crop of alien, ephemeral Incarnations! This challenge really brought out the mind bending rules text. We've got nine powerful cards to review, some of which are shooting for our "could be in Foundations" bar for complexity. Did anyone make it? Check out the episode!

Our trips to the beach for Magic Camp are always filled with some big swings and fun games.

Our latest challenge asked submitters to submit big, abtract creatures that could fit in a five color cycle. How do you convey vast and unusual in a non-legendary Magic card? Plus, at least one card submitted in jest. Join Beacon of Creation's Discord: https://discord.gg/t88Vpwh Show Notes and Images: https://beaconofcreation.com (fixed initial cold open audio)
