    No Jackal lord? Frown Meh. I was pretty excited about an ancient Egyptian themed block when I first heard about it, but man did this block disappoint me. I guess I'll be interested in the Planeswalkers, the Scorpion god and a few other cards and that's about it. Kinda hate how the Scorpion God is RB when almost all of the awesome -1/-1 counter card support is in GB. Want to build an EDH deck around it but when you have cards like the newly spoiled Obelisk Spider and old goodies like Quillspike in G, it just doesn't feel worth it. Would have been awesome if he were RGB.

    Hooray for obscure tribal support! I never would have guessed this in a million years, but I'm glad to see Wizards doing this kind of thing more. I hope it continues.

    When I read the title of this thread, my first thought was "horse tribal?!", then I thought "Oh wait, no, that's just the stupid name of blog or something that's previewing this card".

    Nice card with AMAZING art. That's the kind of weird oldschool Magic art we don't see enough of these days. I love it.

    Wow, the Scorpion God is the kind of new EDH general I've been looking for! But...that name's a little generic isn't it? Sounds like what people would call the card when they can't remember it's official name.

    Well, this leak has got me super hyped for the set. I'm seeing so many cards I want already. I haven't got to play Magic in a while, but maybe this set will get me back into it and be the first set I get a box of in a long time.

    Magic is primarily a game, not a way to make money.


    Exactly! So let's actually reprint good, $$$ cards so prices will drop and people can actually afford to buy them and use them to play the game. People are making money off this game. Tons of it. And a lot of them are doing it by preying off Wizard's reluctance to reprint cards.

    Personally, I don't care about Archenemy. I think it looks fun, but I don't know anyone who has any interest in playing it, so on the premise of this being an Archenemy product, I would pass on it. But if the decks had more interesting reprints, I'd pick it up just to get some interesting and rare cards. I wanted to get this set because I collect Planeswalkers, but there just isn't anything else in the deck that I want or need bad enough to buy it. The decks just look boring and bland (seriously? They couldn't think of anything better than a couple of vanilla 2/4 creatures to put in the Gideon deck?).

    I hate every one of these split cards. All seem overcosted and they're all sorcery speed. :/

    Terrible decision on the fetches.

    I love how it's just a 1/1 for 1 LEGENDARY THOPTER. This set is absurd. I generally hate artifact-themed sets, but this set is shaping up to be my favorite set in quite a while.
