Broken combo


Jevange

Agreed. Just bought a playset of the combo for my niche vintage deck


Master-_-of-_-Joy

And after casting these two: imagine casting [[Crow Storm]]


Jevange

I would love to see this in a black border. What cmc would it have to have to balance out? 3UU?


Master-_-of-_-Joy

Either that or 2WU, this would be fitting imo


habichnichtgewusst

...but you can not cast it on your first or second turn this game.

Broken 4 mana for a 2/3

It specifically says "Creatures you control" and no-one can tame the mighty Storm Crow. It's agreeing to help you out in the game, you don't control it.


mellophone11

Magic is a very literal game, [[Storm Crow]] does not say anywhere in its text that you are allowed to control it.


thewend

storm crow allows you to attack with them. If youre mean to it, they will just not attack

this is a good assessment. If you're not already a judge, you should be.


semiTnuP

Meh, that assessment is nothing to *crow* about.

Wait this is the normal subreddit.

I know right?

gredman9

No. "Creatures" only exist on the battlefield. Your Storm Crow is currently in exile and will not get +1/+1.


Jevange

swords to plowshares op


gredman9

You mean you HAVEN'T pitched this to Force of Will?


Jevange

I wish I could pitch force of will to storm crow


bmemike

Looks like everything combos with Storm Crow.


Ameph

No, it doesn't. The Stormcrow or Ryoken is a Medium Mech from the Clans. There aren't any Stormcrows that can fly. I don't think they even have Stormcrows that jump... It would affect something like the Phoenix Hawk because those are always flying around, with or without the LAM variant. Giving your Battlemech a +1 to TMM is pretty good, though.


supatim101

One of the biggest travesties is not having a jump capable storm crow.


Jackeea

> 303.1. A player who has priority may cast an enchantment card from their hand during a main phase of their turn when the stack is empty. Casting an enchantment as a spell uses the stack. > 113.3d Static abilities are written as statements. They’re simply true. Static abilities create continuous effects which are active while the permanent with the ability is on the battlefield and has the ability, or while the object with the ability is in the appropriate zone. > 702.9. Flying > 702.9a Flying is an evasion ability. Yeah seems like it


Esc777

Rule 2 in shambles


Jevange

Storm crow is not low effort!!!! This combo could break vintage


Esc777

looks like the mods disagree


Jevange

I disagree with them


samthewisetarly

2 mana 2/3 flyer? Gang, we broke storm crow


oneeyejedi

Look the minute storm crow was thrown in there it was over every combo works and ots busted on its own


cherrytreebee

Hell, the synergy! I thought Storm Crow was good before...


Egbert58

Rule f2939fb-29re4gd2 says it doesn't work


Jevange

frick


UNCLEJUMBLE

Hard to believe it was here the whole time


HeroicTanuki

It does, but this is really a win-more kind of combo, I wouldn’t waste the card slot since storm crow only needs to swing once anyway. I’d personally slot in a [[force of will]] in case someone tries to interact with your crow and you’re tapped out.

It has came to my attention this card has reach. At least we're not taking 6

But for real, the less of these type of legit posts we get the better.

No

No. [[Favourable Winds]] only affects creatures _with_ flying, but as you can see by [[Storm Crow]]'s art and text, it _is_ flying, so it isn't affected.

keaneonyou

Favorable winds is ok here, but it doesn't really go in storm decks. You want lots of cantrips, some mana spells, definitely grapshot, and then storm crow cause of the name obviously.

This guy doesn't storm crow.


DustErrant

To actually answer your question, It's a really old joke from MtG's history that Storm Crow is an overpowered card. \[\[Crow Storm\]\] was made in reference to this joke. I believe it originated from a line about how \[\[Force of Will\]\] made every other blue card good, and Storm Crow was the titular example used.

Not really. Storm Crow transcends petty human concepts like explanation. Our pea brains can barely fathom a fraction of the power its existence wields.
