Source 1 (Ascendant Spirit - "Occasionally, we make what I call a "template" card, that is, a card that is so cool and memorable that it inspires us to make more cards like it. [...] One such template card was designed by Brian Tinsman in Eventide called Figure of Destiny . [...] This card has inspired numerous things, including the level-up mechanic in Rise of the Eldrazi. Another thing it inspired was this card [Ascendant Spirit] (what I call a "relic" card—templates inspire relics).") - Source 2 (Frodo, Sauron's Bane - "This gem of a design was created by Brian Tinsman as an attempt to top-down design a creature leveling up over time. Figure of Destiny was so beloved that it's been the springboard for many cards, as well as the level and class mechanics from AFR.") - Source 3 (Shadowmoor Block - "Figure of Destiny was probably the most memorable card from Eventide. It has gone on to spawn many other card designs, and even some mechanics.")

Source (Murders at Karlov Manor - "The set also has an uncommon split card cycle using the five ally-color combinations. [...] One side is cheap to allow you to cast it early, and the second side is six mana to give you a big spell to cast later in the game. The reason it's exactly mana value 6 is so that you can use it for collect evidence (all the commons use collect evidence 6). [...]")

La carte Archdruid's Charm est une référence à Archmage's Charm de par son nom, son coût de mana et le fait de présenter trois effets modaux. Peut-être le début d'un méga-méga-cycle de charmes...

Source (Archdruid's Charm - "[...] Inspired by my success with the Atog s but thinking bigger, I came up with an idea that I called the "mega-mega cycle." We would print a card from a cycle once each block [...] I should note that not all mega-mega cycles start as cycles. Sometimes we make a card, or two, and then later get inspired to make more. That brings us to Archmage's Charm from Modern Horizons. [...]")

Source 1 - Source 2 ("Draft, as an example, had a big influence on the uncommon gold cards that model Draft archetypes") - Source 3 ("One of the biggest changes from Draft Boosters to Play Boosters was the decision to increase from one multicolor card per two-color combination to two. One will be an enabler, helping make the archetype work. The other will be a strong payoff for doing what the archetype is telling you to do.")

Source (Color-Hosing Cycle - "[...] With time, we've realized that we have to be careful how we communicate the relationships between the colors. If we mess with dual lands too much, we lessen the amount of decks available to the players. If we create too many hosers, we shift the focus of tournament play too much toward sideboarding. It's a gentle balance and R&D has been working hard to find it. [...]")
