I'm pulling on my driveway, so we know what that means.

It's time for another drive to work.

Okay, two weeks ago, I started talking about the design of Mirage.

And then last week, I continued talking about the design of Mirage, but I was not yet done.

So today is part three of Mirage design.

So what I started doing last week is I started telling a bunch of stories about cards. And the idea is I'm just jumping around. The stories

are all over the place. The other thing to keep in mind is that I was not on the design team.

I was on the development team for this one. And so I have plenty of design stories that happened during development.

But a lot of my stories are more development oriented or changes that happened during

development. Or last week, for example, I talked about some arts and some flavor text.

So these stories are all over the place.

What I've learned is I talk about what I know, just because the stuff I experienced or saw

is the easiest stuff for me to tell the stories. So I wasn't privy really about what I know, just because the stuff I experienced or saw is the easiest

stuff for me to tell the stories. So I wasn't privy really to what I went on during the design

of Mirage, other than watching, you know, working on it with Bill during development.

But anyway, I got more stories to tell, so I'm going to tell them. Okay, so today I'm going to

start with the Forexian Dreadnought.

Dun, dun, da.

Okay, so here's how that card came to be.

So what happened is, when Alpha came out, Richard made two cards.

One was called Lord of the Pit.

That was a 7-7.
