We already know Emrakul is card 006. So there's at least 5 other colorless-mana-cost nonartifact nonland cards numbered 1 to 5. And given how early E is in the alphabet, I'd guess at least 6 or 7 more after (likely more). Oath had 12.
Eldritch Moon Prerelease Packs will include a foil rare or mythic as they've been doing for the past couple of sets, but also will include a foil DFT (double-faced token) that is a 2/2 zombie on both sides:
I've wondered if Emrakul is a little more aware than the other two titans and what it would mean to be a little vexed about being penned up for a while. Maybe this leads her to select planes associated with her captors as her next snacks - this would lead towards Innistrad and then wherever Ugin is from...
Thanks for the legwork, bfellow!
The only change I see is that I believe that Thopter Spy Network should be in the place of Jace's Sanctum. If you have or saw a prerelease Jace's Sanctum promo, let us know!
I am very curious as to how this will affect draft. Basically every now and again someone gets to telegraph their color AND get a money mythic... seems... good... for them?
Eh you're right, I completely forgot they don't re-use those art pieces in cards. Same thing with the amazing Fate Reforged art (Sarkhan on fire with Ugin in the background). Oh Well I just wanted to ask because Black/Red are my favorite colors and that is some beautiful art. Could have made a great Promo card =/
It always seems that way to me - they have this amazing art on the boxes and I wish they'd go onto promo cards! The Sorin from a few years ago or Lili on her Innistrad throne spring to mind.
New to prerealease stuff, when should we learn what are in the prerelease clan box?
Wizards of the Coast won't release these as a known quantity. They want you to play by choosing your favorite clan/color/faction instead of by which rare is best or has the best numbers on paper. I usually don't have the full list until after the prerelease (not good for pre-planning, but good for collectors). I will post the lists as soon as I see them, though.
You can make the safe assumption that the Elder Dragons will be possible in their clan boxes as well as rares that have the clan keyword. I would also guess that the dual-colored rare dragons will go in their clan's pool as well. There will be some odd mono-colored choices here and there as well to pad certain clans if the past is any indication.
Here they are in attachment form...
[edit] - also, here's an attached version of the EMN Game Day door prize:
[edit - also, in playing catch-up, here's the art to the sylvan scrying FNM promo]
