Torpor Orb is very good in MBC, MWC and MUC decks running control spells; and a limited number of ETB triggers (usualy duplicant, clone and a very small number of other creatures.)
ReplyDeleteTorpor Orb hoses green however; it also will hose Clique; and many mulitcolor decks. So think of it as a color-specific control card. (anti-green/red)
You mighty also want to take a look at my own review of the set: http://mtgcommander.net/Forum/viewtopic.php?p=87747#p87747
ReplyDeleteits short and to the point; but it covers ever card spoiled.
Fair enough, but it also hoses EVERY DECK I RUN, so yeah... Torpor Orb is just a card that, if it gets adopted by my playgroup, would force me to completely overhaul every single deck I have. I really like my decks, so I'm not too keen on having to do that.
ReplyDeleteFinally found time to check out your review, btw. We definitely line up on most cards, Torpor Orb being the obvious stand-out for polar opposites of opinion.
ReplyDeleteThe more I think about it, I really expect Praetor's Grasp will go UP in price - perhaps I should pre-order them while they're reasonable?
