Players start at 30 life, but largely you are just playing Magic as usual
Most players slip up or run low on mana, feeding your card advantage engine throughout the game
Also, as I stated in my answer, casual play doesn't need an extra ruling - you're already allowed to use every card from your collection.TheThirdMan TheThirdMan2017-11-16 16:16:42 +00:00Commented Nov 16, 2017 at 16:16 @TheThirdMan Having an official ruling does help for casual play though, as MaRo's rulings can be used as "evidence" to support one side and end arguments/disagreements among players.Malco Malco2017-11-16 16:23:10 +00:00Commented Nov 16, 2017 at 16:23 1@Andrew The answer is already a bit bloated now with the commander note but I will drop the MaRo ruling as well
A 2/2 flying first striker does seem white, though, and this Reserved List card wouldve been a great rate when it was printed
it's a reprint of Mega Gallade ex as a new Special Illustration Rare
We can always reban it if it ends up being a problem, but odds are that it would be perfectly fine in the format
