	'''~~THE GRAND DAD EMPIRE~~''' ~~ARE~~ a ~~prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY~~. ~~Their largest periods~~ of ~~activity seemed to be around~~ the ~~time SILVAGUNNER was terminated~~, ~~when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are~~ '~~'not'' official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated~~ with ~~JOEL)~~.		'''Eldraine''' is a [[plane]] from [[Magic: The Gathering]], originating from the set "Throne of Eldraine". Coined as a mixture between Arthurian myth and fairy tales, the plane is chock full of knights, fairies, ogres, and all of the other trappings of European folklore. If you can think of a fairy tale trope, there is a very good chance that there's a card with some version of that trope from Eldraine.

	~~They operated out~~ of the ~~SilvaGunner YouTube channel until it~~ was ~~terminated~~ in ~~2014~~, after ~~which~~ they ~~appear~~ to ~~have transitioned briefly~~ to ~~GiivaSunner in September~~ of ~~2016 before returning~~ to ~~SilvaGunner in June~~ of ~~2018.~~		The plane itself is generally split between two parts: The Realm and the Wilds. The Realm consists of 5 different courts, representing the 5 colors of Mana and human civilization. It was made after humanity [[Humanity Fuck Yeah\|overthrew the elvish lords that had long since enslaved them, and then took their empire for their own.]] As you would expect, the Realm is home to the Arthurian side of the plane, and houses most of the knights in the set. The Wilds are the places that the Realm has not taken over, and where the [[Elf\|elves]] took refuge after they got their asses handed to them by the humans. Home to the fairy tale part of the plane, as well as most of the other non-humans. Eldraine is the birthplace of [[planeswalker\|planeswalking duo Will and Rowan Kenrith]]. [[Garruk Wildspeaker]] also makes an appearance, where he finally manages to get rid of the black taint that [[Liliana Vess]] put on him, opening him up for further appearances down the line!

	== ~~CHANNELS~~ ==		==The Courts==
	The ~~original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service~~ of ~~coming events~~, ~~discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS~~, ~~MEME showcase~~, and ~~general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion~~.		The Realm consists of 5 courts, each representing the different colors of Mana, a specific virtue, and houses a legendary artifact unique to them.

	~~{{awesome}}== EVENTS ==~~		* Ardenvale, the White-aligned court, and houses a majority of the knights on the plane. They represent the virtue of Loyalty, have a ton of cards with vigilance, and houses the Circle of Loyalty, a ring of brilliant white flame that every knight has to walk through as part of their initiation. If they are found worthy of being a knight, then they pass through the flame unharmed. If they don't, then they are burnt to a crisp. Mechanically, the Circle is a Knight payoff that becomes cheaper if you own a lot of knights, pumps your entire board, and makes even more Knights.
	The ~~VINESAUCE MEME events~~ that The ~~GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known~~ for ~~being diverse and involved~~, ~~due~~ in ~~large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene~~. ~~These events would involve VINESAUCE~~-~~branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS~~ for ~~SONGS~~ that ~~wouldn't exist for nearly~~ a ~~decade~~, and ~~some~~ that ~~still don't!~~ They ~~also hosted some~~ of the ~~first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments~~, ~~with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.~~		* Vantress, the Blue-aligned court ruled by a [[Wizard]] with no sense of right or wrong. They represent Knowledge and house the sentient Magic Mirror as their legendary artifact. The Magic Mirror pays you off for casting a lot of instants and sorceries by becoming cheaper, maxing out your hand size and slowly filling it up with loads of cards.
			* Locthwain, the Black-aligned court ruled by the only elf to have held onto their power after the human uprising. Their virtue is Persistence, and their queen is a perfect example of that. WoTC makes it very clear that she has had many, ''many'' lovers throughout her immortal lifespan. Many knights aim to be the next lover to the Queen, as her lovers are wed to the Queen the day they set out on their quest to find the Cauldron of Eternity. After a year passes with no word from the knight, the Queen declares them dead and throws a party. The Cauldron of Eternity is a reanimation payoff, which rewards you for filling up your graveyard with targets to be brought back to the battlefield. However, whatever is in your graveyard is all you get, as the Cauldron shuffles back any creature that dies back into the deck.
			* Embereth, the Red-aligned court that is all about fighting and winning. Representing Courage, the court is home to an eternal knight tournament that has gone on for so long, no one remembers how or why it started. Their legendary artifact is the Irencrag, a massive molten boulder that aspirant knights thrust their swords into to prove that there is courage in their hearts. Forged from the Irencrag is the sword Embercleave, which is both a combat trick and a piece of equipment, all in one! It gets cheaper to cast the more attacking creatures you control, has flash, and gives one of your dudes trample, double strike, and +1/+1.
			* Garenbrig, the Green-aligned court that represents Strength. They suplex bears and houses the only source of fast-travel on the plane in the Great Henge. Mechanically, the Great Henge pays you off for having big dudes, taps for mana, gives you life, and gives you card advantage for playing more creatures while ALSO pumping them up!

	~~In later years, an event known as GRAND FEST was hosting PREMIERES for GRAND DAD Fantasy, KING FOR ANOTHER DAY, GRANDmachine, HE THICC 69, and MEME Wars, as of 2019.~~		==Mechanics==

	~~== HIGH-QUALITY RIPS and MEMES ==~~		'''Adamant:''' Cards with adamant reward people for using 3 or more of a single color, usually by turning the admittedly lackluster cards into pretty sweet deals. EX: [https://scryfall.com/card/eld/170/outmuscle\| BEAR SUPLEX]
	~~Some HIGH-QUALITY RIPS appear to have seen releases~~ or ~~updates in 5th and 6th edition~~. ~~Note that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE seem to have been most active between 2012 and 2019~~.

	* GRAND DAD 2: ~~SPASTIC BOOGALOO~~		'''Adventure:''' The first mechanic teased in the set and the most involved mechanic in the set. Creatures with Adventure have two halves to them: a Creature half and an Adventure half, which takes the form of an instant or sorcery. By paying the requisite mana, you can cast that creature as an Adventure, which casts the spell much like any other instant or sorcery. Once it resolves, the Adventure put into exile, where it can be re-cast as a Creature later on. You essentially get two cards in one! EX: [https://scryfall.com/card/eld/277/realm-cloaked-giant-cast-off\| Realm-Cloaked Giant]
	* GRAND DAD 3: ~~THE GAUNTLET OF ASS (FEATURING SMOL NOZOMI~~, ~~TITO DICKMAN~~, ~~SPONGE~~, ~~HE THICC~~, ~~and SANS UNDERTALE)~~
	* GRAND DAD 4: ~~GRAND DAD IS GOD~~
	* GRAND DAD 5: ~~DEATH TO 1D4CHAN~~

	~~GRAND DAD IS LOVE~~		'''Food:''' Foods are artifacts that can be tapped and sacked for 2 generic mana to give you 3 life, and usually come in the form of tokens. While this seems pretty boring compared to Treasure and Clues, Throne of Eldraine puts a couple of spins on it, firstly by making certain creatures and non-token artifacts also count as food, and by making a variety of payoffs that run on food. EX: [https://scryfall.com/card/eld/219/gingerbrute\| Gingerbrute, one of the more memed cards of the set based on art alone.]
	~~GRAND DAD IS LIFE~~
	~~GRAND DAD WILL CONQUER THIS WIKI~~		'''"Non-human" Tribal:''' Representing the divide between the human-centric Realm and the diverse Wilds, there are a ton of cards that specifically reward you for playing non-human creatures. EX: [https://scryfall.com/card/eld/192/grumgully-the-generous\| Grumgully, the Generous]
	~~FOR MEMES~~
	~~FOR VINESAUCE~~		'''"Second Card Drawn":''' Less of a mechanic and more of a theme, there are a number of cards in Red and Blue that reward you for drawing your second card in a turn.

By paying the requisite mana, you can cast that creature as an Adventure, which casts the spell much like any other instant or sorcery. Once it resolves, the Adventure put into exile, where it can be re-cast as a Creature later on. You essentially get two cards in one!

Created page with "'''Eldraine''' is a plane from Magic: The Gathering, originating from the set "Throne of Eldraine". Coined as a mixture between Arthurian myth and fairy tales, the pla..."

New page

'''Eldraine''' is a [[plane]] from [[Magic: The Gathering]], originating from the set "Throne of Eldraine". Coined as a mixture between Arthurian myth and fairy tales, the plane is chock full of knights, fairies, ogres, and all of the other trappings of European folklore. If you can think of a fairy tale trope, there is a very good chance that there's a card with some version of that trope from Eldraine.

The plane itself is generally split between two parts: The Realm and the Wilds. The Realm consists of 5 different courts, representing the 5 colors of Mana and human civilization. It was made after humanity [[Humanity Fuck Yeah|overthrew the elvish lords that had long since enslaved them, and then took their empire for their own.]] As you would expect, the Realm is home to the Arthurian side of the plane, and houses most of the knights in the set. The Wilds are the places that the Realm has not taken over, and where the [[Elf|elves]] took refuge after they got their asses handed to them by the humans. Home to the fairy tale part of the plane, as well as most of the other non-humans. Eldraine is the birthplace of [[planeswalker|planeswalking duo Will and Rowan Kenrith]], and is also the home of Oko. [[Garruk Wildspeaker]] also makes an appearance, where he finally manages to get rid of the black taint that [[Liliana Vess]] put on him, opening him up for further appearances down the line!

==The Courts==
The Realm consists of 5 courts, each representing the different colors of Mana, a specific virtue, and houses a legendary artifact unique to them.

* Ardenvale, the White-aligned court, and houses a majority of the knights on the plane. They represent the virtue of Loyalty, have a ton of cards with vigilance, and houses the Circle of Loyalty, a ring of brilliant white flame that every knight has to walk through as part of their initiation. If they are found worthy of being a knight, then they pass through the flame unharmed. If they don't, then they are burnt to a crisp. Mechanically, the Circle is a Knight payoff that becomes cheaper if you own a lot of knights, pumps your entire board, and makes even more Knights.
* Vantress, the Blue-aligned court ruled by a [[Wizard]] with no sense of right or wrong. They represent Knowledge and house the sentient Magic Mirror as their legendary artifact. The Magic Mirror pays you off for casting a lot of instants and sorceries by becoming cheaper, maxing out your hand size and slowly filling it up with loads of cards.
* Locthwain, the Black-aligned court ruled by the only elf to have held onto their power after the human uprising. Their virtue is Persistence, and their queen is a perfect example of that. WoTC makes it very clear that she has had many, ''many'' lovers throughout her lifespan that she replenishes using the Cauldron of Eternity. Many knights aim to be the next lover to the Queen, as her lovers [[Blam|always seem to die under mysterious circumstances]]. The Cauldron is a reanimation payoff, which rewards you for filling up your graveyard with targets to be brought back to the battlefield. However, whatever is in your graveyard is all you get, as the Cauldron shuffles back any creature that dies back into the deck.
* Embereth, the Red-aligned court that is all about fighting and winning. Representing Courage, the court is home to an eternal knight tournament that has gone on for so long, no one remembers how or why it started. Their legendary artifact is Embercleave, which is both a combat trick and a piece of equipment, all in one! It gets cheaper to cast the more attacking creatures you control, has flash, and gives one of your dudes trample, double strike, and +1/+1.
* Garenbrig, the Green-aligned court that represents Strength. They suplex bears and houses the only source of fast-travel on the plane in the Great Henge. Mechanically, the Great Henge pays you off for having big dudes, taps for mana, gives you life, and gives you card advantage for playing more creatures while ALSO pumping them up!

==Mechanics==

'''Adamant:''' Cards with adamant reward people for using 3 or more of a single color, usually by turning the admittedly lackluster cards into pretty sweet deals.

'''Adventure:''' The first mechanic teased in the set and the most involved mechanic in the set. Creatures with Adventure have two halves to them: a Creature half and an Adventure half, which takes the form of an instant or sorcery. By paying the requisite mana, you can cast that creature as an Adventure, which casts the spell much like any other instant or sorcery. Once it resolves, the Adventure put into exile, where it can be re-cast as a Creature later on. You essentially get two cards in one!

'''Food:''' Foods are artifacts that can be tapped and sacked for 2 generic mana to give you 3 life, and usually come in the form of tokens. While this seems pretty boring compared to Treasure and Clues, Throne of Eldraine puts a couple of spins on it, firstly by making certain creatures and non-token artifacts also count as food, and by making a variety of payoffs that run on food.

'''"Non-human" Tribal:''' Representing the divide between the human-centric Realm and the diverse Wilds, there are a ton of cards that specifically reward you for playing non-human creatures.
