Horizon Canopy-variant seems really weird to me, since they phased out the Painlands precisely because new players hated paying life for mana. If they go for something like that, I'd expect them to at least be able to produce colorless.
If the enchantment is as Trollcreature says, wouldn't that be too powerful for Standard?
Unlike Path to Exile, you can drop it whenever you have excess mana, and for the decks who usually want an exile effect, the opponent gaining life is less of a drawback than getting a land.
I can't believe anyone is excited about this card. It is absolutely unplayable. I wouldn't even play her in LIMITED. Easily the worst walker printed since the green elf one. Absolutely terrible.
Thoughtseize is NOT in Born of the Gods
But hey, as a consolation prize, Magma Jet is in, but it's not that Leonin pic.
Is it really possible to have information about something so far in the future at this time? Or is this a way of saying that Thoughtseize is in Theros?

I could see it in the third set. Makes sense when Theros is going to have 10 lands and at least Elspeth.
The thing is there is literally almost no chance of getting for sure spoilers about either of the two other sets in the block, so the only way of eliminating it from the second set is by way of it being in the first.
Guys, the 1CMC Journey to Nowhere with a downside and the StP Enchantment are the same card. W: When ~enters the battlefield, exile target creature an opponent controls until ~ leaves the battlefield. It's controller gains life equal to it's power.
(Otherwise we're getting two W: Exile something cards. Which wont happen.)

You have some kind of confirmation of this wording?

Well, this has all been rather confusing. Hopefully PAX clears some things up. As a red/x mage I hope the leonin art goes with a Magma Spray variant as I speculated since Voice will otherwise be close to if not the best card in standard, depending. If red gets decent exile removal and Magma Jet? Oh baby. Scrying at instant speed is hot with Young Pyromancer/Guttersnipe and now I'll have my fingers crossed for 1U instant Scry 2, draw or similar. I am excite.
I really hope Magma Jet isn't the could have been in Modern Masters card that MaRo was talking about, and we get no reprint of thoughtseize. That would just suck.

It would but Magma jet is much better then searing spear. Ditching 2 lands for red aggro is huge in the midgame.
So with the new information of the enchantment StP...
Is this a significant downside? I could see it actually being a strength even, as abilities can't be countered.
although it dies to enchantment removal... and the opponent can play around it beacuse it's visible.
Honestly I kind of like it. There's a lot of room for awesome flavor text to develop the setting in the mean time, especially since the rules text is small enough that it takes up only a few lines.

How do you guys feel?
The "Seals" are always nice. It's like playing with an extra card in your hand. Sure, your opponents can see that card, but your opponents can see that card. Wanna throw your 4/4 against my 1/1 and a hand full of cards? Ok. Wanna throw your 4/4 against my 1/1, a handful of cards, and my Seal of Strength? Not so much. Sure your opponent knows what's coming, but they also have to play around that card. You can't drop creatures willy-nilly if your opponent has a Seal of Removal/Doom on the field already.
That, and you know what they say. If Wizards started shipping $100 bills in boosters tomorrow, people would scream and cry and whine that they were folded the wrong way.
magma jet is awesome one of my favourite burn spells, cause it does something else than just dealing damage :). love it much more than searing spear even it deals 1 damage less.
if we now get a replacement for pillar, like magma spray or something, rdw would have all things it needs to be a thing and i would love it as a red mage.
good thing i sold my magma jets for 1,50€ each now they will drop since it will be an uncommon again^^

I guess Magma Jet is that Flamereader pic from the PWG?
