New Mulligan Rule

"103.4. Each player draws a number of cards equal to his or her starting hand size, which is normally seven. (Some effects can modify a player’s starting hand size.) A player who is dissatisfied with his or her initial hand may take a mulligan. First, the starting player declares whether or not he or she will take a mulligan. Then each other player in turn order does the same. Once each player has made a declaration, all players who decided to take mulligans do so at the same time. To take a mulligan, a player shuffles his or her hand back into his or her library, then draws a new hand of one fewer cards than he or she had before. If a player kept his or her hand of cards, those cards become the player’s opening hand, and that player may not take any further mulligans. This process is then repeated until no player takes a mulligan. (Note that if a player’s hand size reaches zero cards, that player must keep that hand.) Then, beginning with the starting player and proceeding in turn order, any player whose opening hand has fewer cards than his or her starting hand size may scry 1."

 

All is the same except that the player with the fewer cards in opening hand is allowed to scry 1. This is a choice, so I suggest that you remember this one! It is going to help players who have been on the draw and except that combo decks have an easier turn mulligan to lower numbers. Control players keep awkward hands anyways that just get there for some odd reason.

 

I am a fan of this ruling and I would love to see it in practice be for I practice with it.

I think I'll add this to the commander games I play. We already play with a casual mulligan rule and getting to try out this new rule seems pretty good. This certainly seems like a good addition and the PT is a great place to try it out.

Now I feel bad. :/

 

Especially since I'm going to lock this to prevent other from posting in it since we now have two of these threads at the top.
