These leaks aren't exactly "new" (read: the original pictures were first posted a month ago), but I don't see a thread on here about them already. So, discuss. What they could mean competitively, whether they're real or not, etc.

more interested in the common and uncommons as they make the bulk of the decks work [for draft and sealed anyways], but we will have to probably wait until next month for that.

OT:
I know nothing about blue. Borbory will see play in reanimator probably
aurelia is nuts
domri rade will be fun to play around with
hellkite is nice

The walker seems REALLY bad. The leaders both seems good. The dragon is cool. Blue mythic seems fun.
That said, the fact that these kind of drifted off makes my gut tell me these aren't the real deal.

Nah, we just lost interest in them because they were spoiled ages ago. If they are fake, they have been done extremely, extremely well.

Domri Rade is lovely, i'd love it for my naya deck.

Enter the infinite is crazy.

Hellkite thingy is funny, isant there some card that creates artifact tokens?

checking that right now, and There are none in Standard that do, outside of Standard yes, plenty

more or less Tyrant: Put in Myr.deck for an Alt win condition

and also

If you can get that off fast with tyrant on the field in an Artifact deck I am sure you win

My problem with him is his +1 is so hard to hit, his -2 and -7 need other creatures on the table.

Infinite and Hellkite are SUPER Commander cards.

[spoiler="Another possibility for the heap. No confirmation one way or the other, but people seem to think it's a fake. I don't think so. Anyways, discuss?"][img]http://i.imgur.com/8ov4O.jpg[/img][/spoiler]

Quite obviously fake. If not, Wizards are crazy. Because, frankly, hand wipe + wrath for 4 mana is silly. Look at Supreme Verdict. It's much better than Supreme Verdict, yet they both seemingly have the same cost.

Note that the person who provided the card has already given two cards confimred as fakes.

[b]Edit:[/b] Confirmed fake, by the way. Foiling is completely wrong, and the black border seems sharpied in.

So too good to be true :<
Good thing I didn't go and buy a bunch of those expensive U/B and B/W dual lands :/

[/quote]No U/W?
Hallowed Fountain is pretty expensive, bro.


If you're on a budget, just go the W/U or the B/U route and have Glacial Fortress and/or Drowned Catacombs. They are pretty cheap.

It further promotes my love of Simic. I believe it's one of the mechanics from the Great Designer Search 2. A Selesnya/Simic or Golgari/Simic draft after Dragon's Maze sounds good.

One of the most flavourful mechanics so far, I think.

It is indeed. http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/118a


I don't think Simic plays THAT well with Golgari since scavenge guys tend to be small and you can scavenge onto something with evolve without making it so they will stop evolving.

If you manage to pick up a Corpsejack Menace during draft, it probably makes more sense. But otherwise, Selesnya's constant run of creatures encourages more evolve triggers.

See, what I find interesting about evolve is that while the constent creatures of cards gives you a chance, odds are they would all end up as 3/X since most of what you get for tokens aren't bigger than 3/3.
