Amy the Amazonian @amytheamazonian.bsky.social · 17/09/2026My problem with Sphinx's approach is that Draw 2/Instant Divination is normally 3 mana. Dragon's Approach is a 1 mana effect at 3 mana and sorcery speed. 131071
KessWylie @kesswylie.kess.co · 17/09/2026“Yeah but sphinx’s are worse” yeah collectively but this card just needs 1 170
Bean.Ben @lordbean.bsky.social · 17/09/2026ITS AN INSTANT?! I have a DA Vivi deck i may as well make it a SA and ill be better probably 000
FluffCopter @fluffcopter.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Honestly agree, this shouldn't be a decent hard if you run 0 sphinxes. What makes this worse is drawing cards alone puts more approaches in your hand so this thing basically fuels itself. 020
Amy the Amazonian @amytheamazonian.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Like stop making gimmick cards actually useful. You should have to suffer to play this 31240
Rob Gunn @sanguinesandman.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I had to read it multiple times, I was looking for the drawback. Like, 3 mana draw two is the standard, and usually only sorcery speed. This is just better divination that also does the thing bc who really wants to work for anything in modern mtg? 110
Alux @aiux.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Getting any of these for just drawing cards at a good rate is absurd 140
Max E Pi @max27183141.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Yea, the other thing that sticks out to me is for dragons approach it doesn’t really feed into itself. The rest of your deck needs to do the work of putting 4 dragons approaches in the graveyard. here the card kinda helps its own combo too much. At least it has 2 colored pips? 000
haunt876.bsky.social @haunt876.bsky.social · 17/09/2026You see the one card is red, the other is blue. I hope this helps 😅 120
Medusa, Theorix Administrator @thelovelymedusa.bsky.social · 17/09/2026My problem is I see 0 problem because I am so extremely Sphinxpilled that I will accept the exact same design issues I would be hissing and spitting at if they were on any other creature type :) 070
Colin Fowler @colinssocial.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Notably, Divination is a bad card and Boltwave is a good card. That said, the rate for instant draw 2 should be 3U. 010
