"Being unable to die even though he wished it, eventually, Bolas stopped thinking"
Bolas: Did you plan this too, Ugin!? Tell me! Ugin: Do you have to ask, brother!? I set a trap and you walked right into it! All of this went down like clockwork! (thinking) I just got lucky, but thinking I outsmarted him will drive Bolas nuts!
I didn't know Ravnica had commemorative snowglobes. Do 'Walkers pick one up every time they go there? Like a sort of souvenir they can use as a paperweight? And does it snow when you shake it?
The art of Deliver Unto Evil reminds me of a Greek Orthodox icon, like portraits of saints or scenes from the Bible. Considering Bolas is trying to become a god, that art and the name (which echoes the Lord's Prayer) make a ton of sense.
Teferi: "I went forward in time, to view alternate futures. To see all the possible outcomes of the coming conflict." Gideon: "How many did you see?" Teferi: "14,000,000,605." Gideon: "In how many do we win?" Teferi: "...One."
For me a glaive is a Roman short sword. It's the first time ever that I hear that it could also mean a polearm...
Isn't that a Gladius? Guardman above says something about the etymology of the word, but I know a gladius is one of those short swords the Roman legionnaires use.
Seriously, though, this was inevitable. First we had Eldrazi Conscription, then we got the enchantment that gave +7/+7.
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
I guess Gids finally found where he belongs.

>Shows a sword
I'm sorry, what?
Aside from that, the card looks nice. Gives incentive to play Gates even if you're not in GU Gates.
