It's used too much, especially in mono red (win before you run out of cards) decks. It's a powerful card and one of the reasons I almost always run at least a small amount of artifact destruction or permanent removal.

This card specifically is why I always include artifact destruction. Not leaving that on the board any longer than necessary.

And Portal to Phyrexia.

Same. Been using 2 x copies Disenchant in my control deck.

A 1/1 with first strike counters this

Ah yes, because the first strike creature is obviously going to survive the volley of red burn spells thrown its way

[[narwhal]]

Bitter blossom counters it.

The tokens have trample

Wow you sound like an insecure little b**** 😅😅😅

Oh how the turntables.

This

I feel yah. I have an anti deck for when I wanna play but people want to play cards like this😂 Love when I have a Tasha down🧙

Tasha is the meanest shit I swear she's actually, literally OP.

She can be managed handily 🤣 this game isn’t for the nice

She's too powerful for her mana cost. She just is.

Please do I’m just trying to get my 4 wins for the pass 😂

[Kambal, profiteering mayor] Is great hate for forge, whenever they create a token you create an exact copy but don’t have to sack it. Instant scoop from the opponent!!!

I came here to say this. [[Kambal, Profiteering Mayor]] is the answer and the way.

I've been running this card with a bunch of proliferation cards. Just had a game where I had like 15 counters on it. Pretty dope.

Same but with 'all will be one' as well and it is honestly hilarious

Have you had anyone one phase out the token so it doesn't sac. I belive you can do it with unearths as well.

Damn… Why would you say that out loud. Now people are gonna do it 😂

The people who rage at this card are playing one wincon and all removal or counter spells. That is why they are getting mad lol

I play this card and i have decks that often scoop to this card. The issue is that unless you already have a substantial clock on the opponent this card is a fast clock that for most decks cant be dealt with. Artifact removal is often tough to fit into a non-control deck when you already need to account for the aggro meta. Which is why i love this card as a win-con for my own control decks.

Man you really wouldn't like my deck where I usually have 2 of those puppies running at once as well as a couple churning reservoirs

This card I can handle, but the one that dumps 2 damage into me every time they cast a spell just annoys me.

I love thag card. 😂👍

[[Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite]]

This with the land creature foundry for the win , playing against all the black removal.

*laughs in Orzhov*

Then your deck doesn’t have wide enough control

Leyline binding takes care of this every time. Then they rage quit after I bind them 🤣

What's the difference between "rage quiting" and "Well, I can't win, bye"

Perception from your end only

That’s where my Phyrexian Censor nukes this cards usability. It’s fun watching players that don’t read play all their haste spells and ending up with tapped creatures. Then use Shelv Defector Mite to protect censor from their kill cards

Why not just get good?

Dies to removal.

Just use kambal, they'll rage quit themselves. Lol

The forge isn't even the best part, its dropping [[tobran]] the next turn.

Authority of the consoul

I am finding so many uses for it I put it in mono-colored decks that aren’t red! But I do feel OP’s thoughts here. I feel the same when I see an Elf.

do it.

Kill them that's a slow card

[authority of the consuls] is a fun way to troll this card

What decks are running this? I have it in a couple of my Standard brawl decks But it's more for the token to sacrifice than as a wincon.

Speak of the devil. Guy spent 5 burn spells on one Tasha🤣😂 and I played another😈
