MTG Salvation

Man, someone at Wizards really loves Reins of Power.

I really hate the Ally creature type when the creature does nothing for ally tribal. :/ Pretty boring card, doesn't excite me.

Man, I didn't expect anything good to be left unspoiled after all of the cool cards we've seen, but there were a lot of gems here! Big fan of the Fateful Showdown, Select for Inspection, Glimmer of Genius, Dramatic Reversal and a few others I can't remember the name of. The artwork on the enemy fastlands is really good, especially the UG and GB ones. Those are downright beautiful. Basic lands are amazing too (except the forests, not a fan of those. All of the other basic lands have a no-civilization, just nature artwork that I love, but I just don't like the Forest. Looks more like a Plains to me).

Another thing I really like is the creature variety. Elephants, tigers, crocodiles and a hyena?! So cool. I hope we see more.

Maybe, but other than the wispy black smog stuff, I don't think Ashiok really resembles any of the concept art of the Aetherborn. Ashiok's face (what's left of it) looks distinctly humanesque, while the Aetherborn's faces all look very alien with their strange mouths and very craggy, jagged skin. They also have those disjointed arms that looks like they've been severed and are being held in place with aether, where Ashiok has fairly normal appendages. Ashiok also has the whole thing with half of his head being missing and those large horn things on either side of what's left of his head. The Aetherborn, from what I've seen, lack those horns. I wouldn't rule it out, but I think they're going to have to explain why Ashiok looks so different from your average Aetherborn if he/she/it is one.

Man, too bad werewolf lovers didn't have a big champion on their side like guy who talked about his love of Dwarves. Then maybe we could have got a halfway decent Werewolf tribal legend /stillsalty

I'm not big on the setting or the main races here and artifacts are probably my least favorite card type, but some pretty fun cards spoiled so far and the world does look beautiful. Vehicles look like they'll confuse a lot of new players though.

IT'S TIME TO D-D-D-D-D-D-D-DUEL!

This set sounds really exciting! Jackal/Anubis tribal please!

As a werewolf fan, this set was an utter failure for me. They ruined my favorite tribe by making them Eldrazi abominations, we got maybe one playable new and one pseudo-playable new werewolf, a failure of a Werewolf commander after waiting all of these years and a big FU to everyone who wanted Moonmist reprinted. A card that wasn't OP the first time around when werewolves were better. Meanwhile the already completely OP Human tribe gets a reprint of their "lord" from the original Innistrad but us werewolf players can't even get a reprint of any of the playable werewolf cards from INN.

There were still a few cool cards unspoiled though. Some I really like. But right now I'm just going to be super salty about the ruination of my favorite tribe. This was probably the only opportunity I'll get until the next Innistrad comes out. I may not even be playing Magic at that point. :/

Good lord. This is just annoying now. I wish werewolves got half the good stuff that Humans are getting. :/

This card angers me. But it has one of my favorite arts in the set.

And here's this set's Blatant Cash Grab alert.

I'm mad that they do not have a planeswalker token for Jace. That's insane. I'd love to have a blue illusion token for Jace.

Captivating Crew, meet Brion Stoutarm... I think you guys will be great friends.

In multiplayer, when I see thick bushes, I go another way and find Lost Vale.

Seems like an incredible trap to me.

The value is all concentrade on the rare slots (not excited about the mythic cards). Are people really willing to gamble 10 dollars to pull one good rare? And it appears that, even in the rare slot, there are more bad cards than good ones.

Can't see how people get excited about this.
