I'm pulling my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work.

Okay, so we are in the middle of a Fate Reforge series, talking about the design of Fate Reforge.

So I got up to the point where I'm talking cards, so I'm going to tell some stories as I talk about cards.

Okay, the next card is break through the line. It's a red enchantment. It costs one in an R. For one red

man, a target creature with power two or less, gains haste and can't be blocked. So this, so one

of the things we tend to do is we make monocolor cards that are kind of targeted for a particular

strategy, but because of a monoc color, they can go in other color.

So for example, this card is meant as a Mardu card.

I'm pretty sure it is flavored and is creative as a Mardu card.

Mardu is the one that attacks with lots of small forces.

So this card is most efficient there.

But one of the cool things about this is like, for example, morph creatures are two.

So this card happens to work with a morph creature.

I mean, you need enough mana because you need a red to activate this,

and then you need the mana to un-morph it.

Also works with ManaFest, obviously, just as well.

So the idea is it was sort of, it's focused for one particular play strategy, but there

are others that can, that can do that.

So the neat thing about the card is it has some flexibility the way you play it.

And so another trick that I've seen is in prowess decks is that you take a prowess creature

that's smaller, let it attack, and then you can cast some spells to make it bigger.

So it's versatile.
