Delibirb Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Oremndahl is pretty neato, but does require a good amount of effort to make work. Standard you may as well not even try, modern you could play tons of 1-drop mana dorks and sue them as the mana and the sacrifices for him, but without Hexproof getting Path'd is a serious setback. Traverse seems scary with Delirium. Unsure of how playable it'll end up as but in theory it can engineer some strong boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Traverse's quite interesting. Should be nice in EDH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poc Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Ormendahl is cool AF but a pretty heavy investment to flip, I'm not sure how playable it is. Traverse is pretty legit. With Delirum active, its a better Wordly tutor and something modern needed for a while, a cheap creature tutor that not super degenerate. Drownyard is awesome, it's design is deceptivly simple but it has so much utility. Can't see it being played in standard though. The colorless lands from BFZ and Oath outclass it. We get a better view at the art on Epiphany too. It looks like some kind of Planar Portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delibirb Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Indeed, so the boat is actually behind the portal. And Jace is about to see something nutty go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Wicked art on Cultivator. And Sorin's abilities are hilarious, but at six mana I doubt he's playable. (Although that's what they said about Chandra...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Wicked art on Cultivator. And Sorin's abilities are hilarious, but at six mana I doubt he's playable. (Although that's what they said about Chandra...)Sorin looks much more playable than Chandra, his + and - are both very strong. Plus w/b is a stronger colour combo in standard than r/x. His only downfall is he has no real way of protecting himself other than his -x. Also again, this is like a colour shifted Ob/ jace. generic Card advantage as it's +, generic removal as it's - and an ult that no one really cares about.

Flame Dragon Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Abbey seems cool, if only a little slow. I wish it made dudes at a slightly cheaper rate. Traverse seems very good if you can turn on delirium. Not sure what your suppose to do with temple...... Deathtouch on a mana dude is pretty cool. Shame he only makes G or B. New Sorin is cool. All of his abilities do a lot of work. It is annoying it follows the same basic layout of Jace and Ob. Hell, even Nahiri has a similar layout making 3 of the 4 planeswalkers in the set that + to draw a card and - to deal with a creature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Not sure what your suppose to do with temple...... Use it in Titania decks. It's amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Instant speed ramp + mill decks. Could see play in Reanimator decks. Works with Boom/Bust decks, that runs cards like Mind Stone. Card is bad, but it is still interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poc Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Delayed ritual is kinda cool, I guess? At least we get another delirium enabler.Neat, I always loved the seal of doom type enchantments, especially when they're seething song. Can't see this being played much though. Oh, and I guess mana dorks only get printed at rare now, it's a marginally better leaf gilder that SOMETIMES had death touch. It could of been uncommon and it wouldn't affect limited balance at all, it really sucks when a mediocre mana dork ends up at 5$ because it's the best we have in standard and it's a rare.

.Rai Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Everyone's like confirming that the boat was behind the whirlpool of doom, even though we saw this art right when the trailer came out. *shrugs* Also, Westvale Abbey has been translated as Eastvale Abbey in French for some bizarre reason.

(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Among other, more relevant things, this makes Gravecrawler+phyrexian altar produce infinite mana, rather than just infinite death triggers. For me, this just adds to the redundancy in the vengeful dead wincon in mono-black combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
