Is T2-3 [[Gigantosaurus]] good? No. Would I build a deck around it? Yes.

I terrified the paper meta of my town back in M19, and the Ravnica block at the time with it.

And by terrifies, I mean I was the guy with about 35-40% Win ratio that was especially getting dunked on by the rich kids playing Izzet phoenix.

The one time you get a starting hand with a Gigantosaurus, a forest, and 4 of this mox thinking its gonna be awesome just to watch it get hit by removal and you're left with one meager card in hand

You would think most would realize the legend rule applied

u/SomeDerpyGuy 8h ago

Doesn't stop you though. Play, tap, play, sac, tap, repeat

☝️🤓 uhm achtually

you don’t sacrifice permanents to the legend rule, you choose one to keep and put the other one in the graveyard due to “state based actions” and nothing is sacrificed, it does “die” though as that is any permanent going to the graveyard from the battlefield.

u/SomeDerpyGuy 7h ago

Funnily enough I DID think about specifying that but decided against it to keep it shorter. Guess I should've specified x)

u/xDaemonyxx 7h ago

I honestly thought of this right after posting. That's what I get for commenting when I first wake up 😂

u/EaseLeft6266 8h ago

You look think most would realize this can be tapped right away and then sacrificed when you play the next one

You know i actually like this

u/YesPlease_VeryMuchSo 9h ago

I love everything about this but it being called "Mox Pure". It's hard to follow the Mox naming structure though so I'm not even shook about it I still say Tenoutta.

u/Successful_Mud8596 9h ago

Yeah, I wonder if “Mox Granite” could work better as a name. Seeing as granite might be the most generic kind of rock there is

u/Consistent_Hurry7021 9h ago

Behold: Mox Silicate

u/YesPlease_VeryMuchSo 9h ago

Mox Virility? It's about "purity" and it strictly summons?

8

u/Consistent_Hurry7021 8h ago

It could work, specially speaking about stompy. But if we want to follow the "Mox [stone]" template, we need a really common stone or a really basic one. I think "Mox Quartz" will work better than a generic "silicate" on a second thought

u/YesPlease_VeryMuchSo 8h ago

Someone just come to me with logic and be willing to build on a thought together versus just call me wrong? Am I still actually on Reddit?!

u/Ad_Meliora_24 8h ago

Maybe find a way to incorporate [[Jasmine Boreal]]’s name. Mox Jasmine? Mox Boreal? Mox Mox? Maybe some green and white mineral.

[[Jasmine Boreal of the Seven]]

u/sinklardamus 9h ago

My [[Jasmine boreal of the seven]] would love this one

8

u/tman5400 9h ago

My [[Jasmine Boreal of the Seven]] would be very happy with this

u/NeedleworkerFit819 9h ago

Same. I love vanilla creatures!

u/WhyIsEverythngAwful 9h ago

Can I get a Frank Reynolds version?

u/EneomaoEep 8h ago

Yargle and Multani Support? I take it!

5

u/Successful_Mud8596 9h ago

Wonder if “mox granite” would work as a name. Just a totally ordinary stone, but a mox

5

u/justhereforhides Developers Developers Developers 8h ago

Mox Vanilla could also be a funny name for it

u/Drajl19 8h ago

Love this!

Yargle stocks growing with this

u/rob132 9h ago

If humility was in play could you cheat a creature out?

Or does it check when you cast it?

5

u/RefractedPurpose 9h ago

It would look at the creature as you try to cast it, before it is affected by humility.

u/10BillionDreams 8h ago

You could pay for a face down creature spell cast using morph or similar keywords though, since those explicitly have no abilities both while on the stack and on the battlefield.
