bury the year Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 These guys were spoiled a few days ago, but I don't think anyone cared to post them. What happened to our stream of spoilers, btw? Was it just because of PAX Prime that we were getting them, and "actual" spoilers are slated to start later? That said, Breaker seems like it'll be interesting in limited, and if not, it's at least a cool casual card. Neither of these will make any impact in constructed, though. There's also an interesting flavor note here: the two Kozilek-brood Eldrazi we've seen so far (Skitterskin and Kozilek's Channeler) both have art appearing to be set underground. All the other Ulamog-brood Eldrazi, though, are depicted above the surface. Maybe Kozilek's gonna do a chestburster impression on Zendikar for OGW? EDIT: Flavor text on the Channeler make this even more likely. "In the dark places of our world, something horrible is growing. I fear our foes may be more numerous than we had imagined." -Nissa Revane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you tell the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Wait. There's different types of Eldrazi?How do you tell the difference? Each titan has their own brood of lesser Eldrazi, with some unifying features. Kozilek's brood are more spiky/insectoid, with symmetrical angular heads with floaty bits. Ulamog's are more squidlike, with featureless faces, tentacles and multiple forearms connected at the elbows. Compare Artisan of Kozilek versus Pathrazer of Ulamog from the old set to see what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rai Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Refer to this Reddit post that is totally not by me that explains the broods: https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/3j3b1q/bfz_skitterskin/culxr9i These cards kinda just popped up in the spoiler and aren't too interesting so I can see why they didn't quite get posted yet.

Flame Dragon Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 The 10/8 should be good in limited. Skitterskin seems pretty weak though. Not being able to block is a pretty big downside. Guess they want to promote attacking since Regeneration can often lead to board stalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
