Melding the moment

The Eldritch Moon spoilers are going pretty strong and they seem to be attracting positive feedback. The new game mechanics that are being featured are also receiving a lot of interest. One new mechanic is called "Meld", which is a new way of flipping cards over o reveal something very powerful. You require an additional card, specified by the card text, in order to flip to the other side.

Here’s an example of a card from the Mythic Spoilers webpage that involves Meld.

When Gisela, the Broken Blade's is summoned alongside Bruna, The Fading Light, you must Meld them into one creature, which is this card:

An Eldrazi Angel? What a beastly card for two Angels to turn into! Meld seems like a great ability to have in your deck, but it forces you to make a deck a certain way and it wouldn't mix well with other colors or different creature type decks. For these angel cards, it looks like there may be a lot of Human/Angel/Wizard decks flying around the Grand Prix, Pro-tour, or maybe even at the pre-release once the set comes out.

What are your feelings on the new meld ability?

As always, thanks for reading my blog!
