Hmm.....very interesting. If true I'd assume they flip into enchantments. It makes most sense for something to flip and remain a permanent with the colors. Of course the abilities would have to be really good, or the unflipped creature would have to be pretty bad in order for you to want to give up a body for an enchantment.
EDIT: However, I may say this is not entirely true, as a cycle would imply one for each color, while 'Flip' [I know this has been beaten to death with an ugly stick] only appears 4 times in the orb.

Maybe some creature with "When this attacks, flip it at end of combat." and then flip into some enchantment.
Or "When this deals combat damage to an opponent, that player gains control of it and flip this." The enchantment would be something like "During your upkeep you lose 1 life."
Just some thoughts
Hmmmm.....that would be pretty nifty to think of it as some demon possessing your opponent. A demon makes contact with a player and he becomes a part of him/her and starts taking their life away. That would be pretty cool.

uhm... maybe they r something like an hero that still maintain his influence in the material world and the enchantment it becomes it's a representation of this influence:
creature's name
legendary creature - ?
some abilities
when ~ goes into your graveyard from play, flip ~ instead
-----
enchantment's name
legendary enchantment
some powerful effect that recall what it was in life that maybe affect all creatures u control

uhm... land seems possible too... the dead hero that remains bound to the place of his death...

Frankly I think it'd be enchantment;
Saviours seems to be about being big; we have epic and most likley some high CC stuff will make them more playable, not to mention you'd need something powerful enough to make an end to the war - Maybe they transcend being a creature to some element of power etc.

Too bad they won't be reprinting the "sleeping" enchantments of Urza's...Then again, they've practically reprinted a bunch already.
So this is what, Licids, version 2? Interesting, considering how much R&D has always tried to completely banish Licids from people's memories in the past. It'll be cool if they can do Licids right...if that's actually possible.
I wonder how reputable this source is..Daron, is it the same person whom sent you the other cards and sent us the stuff this weekend, or, someone else?
What we're doing here is akin to taking the text of Moby Dick, locating specific words therein, rearranging them to create a passage from Fight Club, and concluding from this evidence that Tyler Durden is based on Ahab.
Yes, but "flipped" also appears in the Orb at least once. It's not impossible that one of the cycle reads:
"If ~ would be put into a graveyard from play, put it into play flipped."
Thus, you'd get a creature whose condition for flipping is to be killed.
That would work. I doubt r&d wont print a full cycle of flippers for Sok, since the Flippers are the most awesomnest cards evah!

I think assaulting another player should have a range of penalties. (A light slap is a game loss, a kick in the nuts is a DQ, ghetto-stomping someone is a Ban for Life.) There could be article all about it, like "when to mulligan"
Ooooh, I so hope they turn into Shrines. :biggrin3:
And as for licids, maybe they decided to use the flip mechanic as a way to "fix" the licids. Pay mana and target a creature then it flips into an enchantment that's enchanting the targeted creature. Then perhaps the enchantment half has a "Flicker" or "return to owner's hand" activation?

maybe everyone should sig the following:
If you think you found a way to play evermind, you are wrong.
as this set seems to have an enchantment undertheme, it seems plausible to say that, should the fippers change permanent types, they would become enchantments, also, i seem to remember maro saying something about how some of the cards in unhinged are (he thinks) viable for reprinting in a serious set (power conduit/ giant fan style) also, this would leave it open (storyline wise) for the whole kami war issue to be resolved: all the people don't die, they just transcend being human (for those of you who've seen eva, think instumentality)

-I don't wanna go on a RANT here but America's foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowolf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first Battle of Antetum. I mean when a neo-conservative defenstrates it's like Raskalnakov filibuster dioxymonohydrostinate.
-What the hell does rant mean?
What a fantastic idea, a honored warrior becoming a 'tribute to the fallen warrior' like enchantment when he passes on, I think this may be the most likely scenario.
Can't wait to see more.

Personally I don't know what to make of it, so I'll just post it and you can tell me what you think.

CHK - with training you become legendary
BOK - with arcane you become spirit
SOV - with great showing of power you become immortilized.
That's hot. You're now my new best friend! *hug*
No, seriously, well said. I think that makes sense.
I also like the idea of a demon charging in and biting the opponent, and becoming an evil auru on him that leeches his soul away bit by bit.

Does anyone think this set looks to have an undercoat of Enchantment theme?

yup, I'm consumed and confused.:tongue2:
I do not sign 5yr+ old cards. Please do not pm me for this.
Then again it could be enchantment (Licids, again?)

That's EXACTLY what popped into my mind.
Hopefully they're just a BIT easier to actually understand this time 'round.
