    On my phone and can't link to his post, but he just posted a link to the mothership. Wotc confirms that someone has gotten ahold of the entire Eternal Masters list. Deep throat is legit.

    Edit:

    He says he'll upload the screenshots once WOTC "Confirms that they can do something". He's also holding off bc he wants to stay anonymous and apparently the screenshots won't allow him to.

    WOTC has officially responded to some of my leaked screenshots. We're going to nail at least 1 of these vendors.
    ...
    30+screenshots were sent out to multiple parties last night confirming their guilt. After talking w/ multiple WOTC ppl, we are working on it
    ...
    These screenshots involve multiple vendors confirming seeing cards in MM2015 months before release, as well as Eternal Masters.

    Are these pics available somewhere?


    "I obviously will not be releasing screenshots yet, as that implicates who I am/ who I shared them with. Gotta give WOTC time

    2:20pm - 16 Feb 16"

    Holy ****.

    So, assuming that I can buy it in MSRP, a box should cost about 240 USD?What was the MSRP of a MM2015 box?



    I wouldn't get your hopes up. The likelihood of you finding someone willing to sell you a box at MSRP is about as high as the likelihood that said box will have a foil FoW in it.


    I live in Europe and my LGS is always selling in MSRP, including MM sets etc. So what was the price of a box? Smile


    Well, in that case godspeed and enjoy your foil FoW... if memory serves, MM2015 boxes were at 250 USD msrp.

    I'm glad none of you are in Design or R&D, your ideas are so stale and superficial mosquitos are spawning on them.
    On the other hand WotC has been show to be just that stale and superficial lately.

    How mad will you be when Lilly and Jace beat Emracool with the power of love while the uncool, non-origins 5 old**** walkers look in awe?


    Dear god... Just evokes the image of Jace and Lili karaoke-ing "Power of Love" so badly that Emrakul flees.

    So... One all-consuming, indestructible, mountain-sized walking deity of annihilation, and one equally large, sanity-destroying, reality-shaping, completely incomprehensible Titan of pure madness (one which JUST RANDOMLY SHOWED UP OUT OF NOWHERE TO CATCH YOU OFF GUARD). Both of which were able to withstand the combined forces of three near-godlike individuals in the past. Oh, and you just collectively got pimp-slapped by a SINGLE relatively de-powered demon, who ruined all your well laid plans, decimated your army, and sent your "soul of the world" elemental packing.

    And you somehow win by setting them on fire.

    Makes sense.


    Actually, I think the flavor across the spoiled cards checks out. (Coming from somebody who doesn't typically read UR articles and such).

    Using the leylines, Jace and Nissa team up to "anchor" the two Titans via Bonds of Mortality and various Hedron stuff. Then, Chandra Surges off of their spell with a massive Fall of the Titans for 12+ to blast away both of them. We're used to red mages dealing relatively small bits of damage via Lightning Bolt etc., but massive X-spells have plenty of precedent in the game, and if four Planeswalkers are working in tandem, Chandra having access to an absurd amount of mana checks out.


    It's not that I think it's absurd that the four of them combined can't power a big enough spell or combination of spells, I just think it's laughable that fire of any sort is randomly their Achilles heel. How does kozilek even get burned if the immediate area around him is completely warping the laws of physics? The leylines I can buy, the team-up of planeswalkers being capable of huge things I can buy, but fire being the thing that gets them? Sorry, but that's a reach.

    Read up on the story, then comment, okay? Again: they didn't kill Ulamog and Kozilek. Just their avatars.


    At no point did I say "kill them", I said "you win". I'm fully aware that they're partial manifestations, but my point's still valid. Those two partial manifestations were still built up to be the nigh-unbeatable and unknowable agents of doom I described, and even though the overall beings aren't dead, those two world-beating manifestations were beaten by fire.

    Why, oh why, must this be white instead of blue??? If only you were blue, this lovely infinite combo would go right into Animar and go completely insane...

    Having seen this Zada deck up close and personal few times and seeing it completely obliterate whole tables WITHOUT casting Past in Flames, the spoiling of Mizzik's Mastery immediately made me think, "oh dear god no..."...

    Can't wait to see it.

    Daxos makes black and white tokens, eh? Sounds like someone needs to set him up on a date with Teysa, I think they'd be great together....
