They specifically said he's dead.  The only option to avoid that is time travel.

and they specifically said this was a time travel block.

So lets go with the assumption that is Ugin, because it makes perfect sense given everything we know...
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth on August 31, 2014, 07:30:40 PM
So its "Fate Reforged" right? Here is what's going to happen (all speculation, not confirmed): in "Fate Reforged" Sorin and Sarkhan change history (saving Ugin, etc.) and the third set (Lewey) is a "new future" where dragons never went extinct (including enemy fetchlands). Sort of a similar story to Innistrad (without Avacyn, then Avacyn Restored with Avacyn). Its going to happen, I am 90% sure.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Dudecore on August 31, 2014, 07:48:51 PM
They mentioned in the panel that Sorin arrived on Tarkir to find Ugin, his only ally and person powerful enough to trap the Eldrazi again. Gideon was on Ravnica to get allies against the Eldrazi, And Nissa is in the new Core set. It is completely possible that at the conclusion of Tarkir we return to Zendikar to face off against the Eldrazi. I would however, like to see a break inbetween (so we get new planeswalkers) and pick up the New Phyrexia storyline.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Dudecore on August 31, 2014, 08:00:55 PM
I hope it ends with Phyrexian-ized Eldrazi. Or we find out that Fblthp was a young Nicol Bolas, who plots to take over the universe after he wasn't given proper directions or a hug. ({Totally Lost})

Yes. Chandra has to go to Theros and go back in time to save Elspeth so that she can go to Ravnica, travel back in time, and take Fblthp across the street.

Tibalt accidentally pulls Grislebrand onto Tarkir and Grislebrand and Ugin get into a massive battle and Grislebrand steals Ugin's spark and becomes a planeswalker

Personally, I love Elspeth and Venser, but I sincerely hope they aren't revived. Those sort of things happening in Time Travel stories diminishes the impact of the original circumstance. Kill off more, I say, then create more new ones.

If Venser comes back, then it would completely cheapen the importance of a spark. Elspeth is a special circumstance, as she may be trapped in Nyx or the underworld on Theros. She may be able to come back. Venser be dead for sure.

They've gotta be careful with time travel stories, and put limits on them. If anything can be undone by going back in time then nothing is important - once everything becomes so dire they can just write it out in time travel.

I believe this situation is different. I'm not sure Ugin will be revived, but might teach {Ghostfire} and other things to Sarkhan.

My point exactly. 😁 Elspeth may be brought back one day, but it hope either not for a loooooooooong time or not at all... even though I'm a bit πŸ˜ͺ about it.

Post by: Dudecore on August 31, 2014, 11:36:45 PM
We need a new UW planeswalker. We have 2x as many Gruul planeswalkers, 2 in standaRd at the same time.

I wonder from a flavor perspective how Sorin is B/W. He is a creature of the night, which I guess makes him evil? He doesn't seem like it though. He created Avacyn premending to protect the humans on Innistrad from vampires. He helped Ugin and the Lithomancer seal the Eldrazi,  and he fights Tibalt in Sorin vs. Tibalt - those all seem positive. He is even upset Ugin is dead, and shows some solidarity for the world's that will be destroyed by Eldrazi.

He's also far from being mono white. I don't know what color he'd be really. Black is marked by selfishness and concerned with getting what they want at any cost. Sorin is a vampire..and a good guy.

Post by: FlickerYourOwnIdentity on August 31, 2014, 11:37:38 PM
If Venser ever is a card again, he is a zombie Venser under Lilliana's control.  That is the ONLY way that could ever happen.

Anyway, I hope Ugin comes back, I feel there is a lot of potential for him.

To get back on track storywise.  Because of the time travel, do you think Sarkhan will want to stay in the past because there are more dragons there, or continue his quest for the present.

By reading the description of black on the wikia, he is very much black. And white.

I haven't forgotten the evil side to white, I just don't understand how he's black. I'm going to continue to read, but I don't see much.

Reading Sorin's bio, his involvement on Innistrad besides being a card in Dark Ascension is minimal. He kinda shows up for no reason, fights Tibalt and then leaves. Seems like they pushed him hard into the story :P

He did that all premending, before Innistrad block. The extend of his involvement in Innistrad block was:
- Return home for no reason
- See that Avacyn is missing
- Fight Tibalt
- OK, someone else freed Avacyn, she is back .
- Planeswalk to Tarkir.

I know he had to be included, it is his home plane. But they could've came up with something for him to do. Liliana and Garruk had a better story. Tamiyo had as much reason to be there as Sorin.

At least they did a better job with Sorin this time round. I imagine he'll be rather important to the story, given his involvement with Ugin.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Destore117 on September 04, 2014, 12:18:28 AM
So. Sorin is looking to fix the Eldrazi problem right? What if he is trying to revive Ugin to do so? Enlists Sarkhan (being like "one with dragons.") to help.
Or
What if he finds Karn, uses Karn's time manipulating abilities to travel back in time, to prevent Chandra from unleashing the Eldrazi. (It was Chandra right?)

(or, lo and behold they fail at this and Chandra, Jace, Sarkhan, or Sorin are killed. (Mentioning Jace because didn't Chandra and Jace have a brief battle with Sarkhan?)) in the past though...so...wait...if they go back in time and kill someone important...won't it muff up the past like 3 sets?...cuz if Jace were to die back then. Wouldn't he never be able
To become the Guildpact, so Ravnica would fall apart. And......and what happens when we get back to Phyrexia and Yawgmoth's shenanigans get in the way of Bolas?...would Bolas be killed or...what ._.
(Even though didn't he die once already then use leylines and a crapload of mana to revive himself?)
#timetravelproblems


My brain hurts ._.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: xStrayKnightx on September 04, 2014, 04:27:12 AM
Here's my theory.

In the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time trilogy, the Prince brings the Empress of Time, who embodies the Sands, from the past (long before he released them) to the present (where he had already released and resealed them). Doing this rewrote the past in a way where he COULDNT have released the Sands in the first place. The Empress never died, so the Sands were never released, they never entered the Hourglass, the Prince is never doomed to death.

Using this theory here, if Sarkhan and/or Sorin travel back through time to a point after the Eldrazi are sealed but before Nicol Bolas kills Ugin and bring Ugin forward to the present day, it'll rewrite the past where almost all events are unchanged, besides Ugin never being killed. This helps deal with the Eldrazi, and Nicol Bolas as well, seeing as he'd still be in a weakened state after being defeated by Ajani.

Karn can Time Travel. He's a fan favorite and hasn't been heard from in a longer amount of time then Sorin. :P
Small set though, usually only 1 planeswalker. So its either Ugin or Karn.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: DrainCleaner on September 04, 2014, 07:26:33 PM
It would be Ugin. I believe Sarkhan somehow uses Ugin's nexus (his remains) to do his time traveling. Also theres some sweet art of ugin.

Post by: Dudecore on September 04, 2014, 07:32:42 PM
Since this is baseless speculation, I'm going to boldy predict that Ugin will be the first planeswalker with a static ability.
I know the new Commander planeswalkers have static abilities, but that doesn't count. I believe Ugin will have Flying.

So... Only flying and reach creatures can attack him? I think that Flying wouldn't do for just that. Flying is defined as it can only be blocked by creatures with flying or reach. Attacked that's something cool though.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Dudecore on September 04, 2014, 07:47:23 PM
Cannot be attacked by creatures without flying or reach? That could work. Flying is a creature ability anyway, wouldn't work on planeswalkers to begin with I guess. So yeah, Ugin cannot be attacked by creatures without flying or reach. :)
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: LinkCelestrial on September 04, 2014, 08:53:01 PM
Here's what I think.

Jace, Chandra and Sarkahn all battled in {Eye of Ugin}. Chandra used {Ghostfire}, unlocking the Eldrazi sealed by Sorin, Ugin and somebody else. The requirement for unlocking was three Planeswalkers and Ghostfire.

Sorin is looking for Ugin. Ugin is dead.

Sarkahn is mad. {Ugin's Nexus} references what sounds like him becoming not insane.

These all sound like things happening in the present. If we go back in time Sarkahn isn't mad and Ugin isn't dead.

Nissa is looking for people to help fight Eldrazi. (Also sounds like she unleashed them somehow. Read her insert in the M15 fat pack)

I think what we're boiling down to is a return to Zendikar, if Sorin rewrites the past that won't happen.

This set is called fate reforged.

I'm guessing Kahns sets us up for Sorin to save Ugin. In fate reforged he does.  Then the next set prepares us for Zendikar and the Eldrazi.

HOWEVER, I could be wrong. If they need {Ghostfire} Sorin could enlist Chandra. I'd much rather have an Ugin printed so I'm hoping for Sorin to save Ugin.

If Sorin saves Ugin * I'm betting Sorin, Ugin and Nissa attempt to reseal the Eldrazi.

GUESS WHAT? I wrote that this morning up to the * (before I went to my grandparents) and now I read the rest of the thread. My prediction was nearly spot on. T_T

Does Jace really want to stop the Eldrazi though? I don't think he cares. Either way, the more I think about it the 3rd set might be that Return to Zendikar. Starts the new two-block paradigm off right. We don't have to return to Zendikar for an entire block anymore, The draft format will be:

Khans, Khans, Khans
Khans, Khans, Fate Reforged
Fate Reforged, Return to Zendikar, Return to Zendikar

We get the enemy fetchlands again, we get new Eldrazi, we see who the LIthomancer is. It's a win-win. We also don't have an awkward 3rd set. Khans is a Wedge "set", not a block. So all Fate Reforged has to do is care about things Khans and a Return to Zendikar care about: Colorless or mono-colored things.

Then Karn comes in to save everything and be awesome, but has accidentally taken phyrexian oil with him that had gotten stuck! :O

Chandra will burn away all the oil with a powerful spell, so powerful, it used all of her strength and essence to pull it off.  She dies a heroic death, and Karn is put in the corner with a dunce cap on.

Barry's Land was a proposed sixth land type that was going to be introduced into... Onslaught block, I think? It was a Basic Land- Cave that was "{T}: add {1} to your mana pool." But it was scrapped as it broke many cards in half. There was also something to do with {Reliquary Tower} but I can't remember what, I was young and probably drunk at the time.

Reliquart tower's artwork was on the original "cave" and it eventually became known as reliquary  tower are R and D determined a colorless land was too intense.
Barrys land was essentially a nonbasic land that can be considered a basic land...a 6th card for the Domain effect. A non basic with the {relentless rat} ability allowing it to be a basic land and in unlimited quantities.

I actually think they'll get reprinted in this set. It's half as much space as a cycle of filter lands, plus, when the weird rotation happens later because of the new block structure, all the fetches will rotate at the same time.

Idk generally those high value cards are in big sets.

Does anyone have any other sources on the zen fetchland reprint? There's been lot of hype around this from players, but nothing really indicating a reprint for the enemy colors orther than people wanting to own them. The zena have dropped a lot just by the onslaught reprints, I know it sounds weird but im sure wizards considers dealers when they reprint cards. I know people have cited  MaRo saying they weren't doing half cycles or something but I've never seen the actual quote.. Idk, would love to know more, as I don't know much :P

I'm still counting on filters before more fetches. I would like to see some new lands for EDH too, or the complete cycle of manlands.. Been waiting on those forever 😜

Here is the actual quote,our hope moving forward with Standard is to make sure that players have the mana base to make their decks work, and part of that means that players in Block will also have adequate mana." But because standard and rotation are changing, it is really hard to predict how the reprints will work from now on.

Ahh, thank you. So it wasn't MaRo, I don't play standard but I feel like their mana base is solid right now between fetches, pain, scry lands, and mana confluence. They have to at least wait until the other fetches rotate out before adding new ones. Like I said, wizards is very careful, they aren't going to cram whys considered some of the most powerful lands ever made in the same block, regardless of their price.

a Delve version of {cultivate}
It may be too slow, but I like the thinking, we could get a lot of iconic cards/abilities with delve (like how {Treasure Cruise} is {Ancestral Recall}). For example:
{9}{U}: Delve, Take an extra turn
{X}{X}{R}: Delve, Deal x damage
{5}{G}: Delve, Search for two basics and put them on the field
{4}{W}{W}: Delve, Destroy all creatures

The best part is that they underestimated delve, so the power level could be quite high for some of the new cards.

i could see, (and hope) that that white delve card is actually a black delve card. i think that blue one is broken even at 9 {U} though. if its this easy to cruise for 1 it wouldnt be that hard to 'walk for one.

Yeah, but that's the point, WoTC underestimated Delve. {Treasure Cruise}, {Dig Through Time} and {Murderous Cut} are almost broken at their casting costs, so god knows what else they screwed up.

He feels way too straight forward. All of his abilities clearly relate to something that already exists or is happening in magic lore. There's no creativity to them. +3 {Ghostfire} -2 create morph creatures to equip your {Ghostfire Blade} to. Of course there are other, more strategic uses that will often times be the reason to use it, but it's obvious that you can do that and it feels pretty linear and boring. And the -15 is just another way of saying that you summon planeswalkers from out of thin air. Kinda like how it would appear to whoever is in the vicinity when Sarkhan and Sorin arrive in the past, that these two planewalkers just came out of nowhere. There's some kindergarten level creativity that I'm seeing displayed in this card. It was probably made by some fan who got stumped and decided to Frankenstein together ugins abilities from things we already know. Hopefully the real ugin has some more thought put into it.

Ugin
8 CMC
6
+1 Create a 2/3 artifact dragon token with Flying
+2 Each player may draw a card, if they do, that player chooses target opponent who must sacrifice a permanent, that permanent is exiled.
-4 Target player sacrifices 2 permanents, those permanents are then exiled.
-12 Return all permanents exiled to the battlefield under your control, these permanents have Hexproof and are indestructible.

You pay {R}{W}{G}{B}{U} and sacrifice a permanent as an alternative casting cost for Ugin. That permanent is then exiled.

In one of Maro's drive to works he talks about morph being really important in the block..  So I see ability 2 as legit.   The ultimate is interesting.  Yes Taysby you need to have The PWs in sideboard for tournament play, but casual is in your collection.   But look at the other colorless planeswalker  {Karn Liberated}..  His ultimate was like wtf.   Maybe all colorless PW get wtf ultimates

Some problems with templating -
First ability should have the entire name 'Ugin, the Spirit Dragon'.  While truncating the name is a common convention with Legendary creatures, planeswalkers almost always feature the full text.  Just take a look at {Sarkhan the Dragonspeaker}.

The second ability should have a line that turns the permanent in to a creature, or at least a reminder that it would become a vanilla 2/2. 

Overall, I'd probably be fine with it like this, even if the Ult is a little out of place.  Using the second ability as incredibly versatile removal is something I'd be fine with in something like Kurkesh.

-2 Best removal ever? Basically? I mean you don't /have/ to flip a morph card with that wording. You could flip {Blightsteel Colossus}. However as previously mentioned it'd have reminder text that it becomes a 2/2 if it was legit.

-15 If that ult goes off, you win. I mean, {The Chain Veil} would finally be a worthwhile card. -15, grab whatever the heck you want, {Nissa, Worldwaker} and {Ral Zarek) and you win.

the -2 is not the "best removal ever." it still targets, so hexproof and shroud prevent it, and if they {doom blade} their own flipped 2/2 {blightsteel colossus}, itll now get shuffled back into library. instead if you had cast {path to exile}, (the actual best removal ever) or {swords to plowshares} {blightsteel colossus} would actually be gone. costs too much to be playable except in edh and i doubt its real.

one thing i found interesting in its favor of being real is the numbering at the bottom. its 003 which is very plausible since they count the card numbers starting with the colorless ones in alphabetical order. in this case there would be 2 other colorless ones before it (Ghost fire as one??) and also i found this tweet linking the art to the artist.

https://twitter.com/TheArtofMtG/status/530821208238227456?s=17

still it may be a very well thought out hoax lol

but even the way the card is written, they may be moving away from typing the whole name out and the whole ability out (like the hooded hydra example from Dudecore)

It's still extremely solid. Turning an 11/11 infect indestructible trample into a 2/2 colorless vanilla is good. Besides the fact that if you nail the average creature it's not going to recover anytime soon.

There are decks in standard right now capable of {Villainous Wealth}ing for insane amounts I heard somebody cast one for 27. I know there's a reason nobody plays {Colossus of Akros} but my {Villianous Wealth}  deck (casual, and using the inferior enchant land untap method) would be perfectly okay with running a nine mana planeswalker of that power level. I have relative ease casting {Garruk, Apex Predator} and {Colossus of Akros} with said deck. Would it be a super competitive oh my wow deck? No, but I don't think it'd be a laughing matter either.

From what I've heard from many card appraisers about this planeswalker is that the  colon next to the loyalty counters +3 and -2 is a few pixels/millimeter off from where it should be. Making many believe that it's a fake...
Yeah, there are lots of problems, it's about 99% confirmed to be a fake.

I'd be skeptical of calling it fake. Wizards has plenty of leaks over the past year. Like From the Vault: Annihilation, Duel Deck: Speed vs. Cunning and The Black Commander deck.

The first ability should say, "Ugin, The Spirit Dragon...," and the colons are off center, its a very high probability of being fake.

But people find formatting "errors" constantly in leaked cards. Then they turn out being accurate. It may serve some greater purpose, or a change to how Planeswalkers can reference abilities.

I'm not saying it's 100% real, and criticism is valid - but almost every single time 4chan has spoiled a card ({Domri Rade}, {Anax and Cymede}, ect) it has turned out to be real.

Ugin is incredibly balanced and pretty flavorful for a fan made card. Giving all colors access to {Lightning Bolt}/{Ghostfire} and having a major ultimate makes him seem very powerful.

Again, all criticism has been valid, but we've all been burned so many times in the past due to spoilers that ended up being real is what gives me pause. The amount of From the Vault: Annihilation "fake" formatting errors that were 100% correct. Or the "Fake" Domri Rade's can only happen so many times.

I have my doubts, we did just get {Scourge of the Throne} in conspiracy. But I looked at the sets, and we have 3 additional combat phase granting spells, pre-modern. Since Mirrodin, the only story blocks not to have access to an additional combat phase are; time spiral, scars of Mirrodin, Innistrad, Theros, and so far Khans of Tarkir. Time Spiral, Innistrad, and Theros, instead get cards thatgive an entire extra turn, respectively; {Temporal Extortion}, and {Walk the Eons}, {Temporal Mastery}, {Medomai the Ageless} and the {Sage of Hours}. {Ugin's Nexus} and the time travel theme, would leave me to believe that taking an extra turn is more likely than getting another combat phase.

An ability words a word that, in essence, groups, and reminds players of, cards that have a common functionality and does not imply any particular rules.

So any ability in italics has no actual rules significance other than grouping common abilities.

Therefore they are free to change it.

Yes, but the point is WoTC has to change the ability word, we can't just declare it says opponent which is seems like you were implying: "Technically, since it is an ability word, it can have any rules text. It can be opponent of you really want it to."

I believe it says may contain because some other languages aren't going to have this due to the size of the print run.

Yeah, the Cliffside says: "Certain languagesβ€”Korean, Portuguese, Chinese (Traditional), and Russianβ€”will also contain basic lands in this slot at a high frequency alongside nonbasic lands, as Fate Reforged basic lands will not otherwise be printed in those languages."

{Trail of Mystery}

Read that bottom part carefully...

Reading the italic part on manifest.  It looks like if it's anything but a creature it never morphs.  Just a vanilla 2/2.  trail of mystery will never hit it cause as of right now only creature cards can be turned face up

"Turn it face up at any time for its mana cost if its a creature"

Doesn't say that you can do anything if it's not a creature

Also I'd say make sure you keep those morph tokens.  Now you have to determain what was cast as a morph and what wasn't.  Otherwise players that have manifest could try to cheat and cast a morph and it not being morph creature

I'm still not understanding the cheating thing. You still have to reveal the card one way or another. Seems like the difference is only that manifest cards have a "turn face up" cost equal to the mana cost instead of the card gaining a morph cost equal to mana cost.
Right so now when you manifest {hooded hydra}, he gets the free 5 counters for turning him face up and then the {X} counters you pay for his casting cost.  {3} mana 6/6 that puts 6 snake tokens in play when it dies seems legit

You can't pay the {X} unless you cast it. {X} = {0} while {hooded hydra} is facedown. So if it's manifested, you could only pay the {G}{G} or {3}{G}{G} to morph it

I think this is what he's referring to:

And if you make a token copy of {wingmate roc}, he will check for raid and make a token if youve attacked.

So it will always be a 5/5 because it already entered the battlefield, correct? If that's the case there's some clear lack of synergy with the raid mechanic. I'd hate to manifest a {Wingmate Roc} and never get the extra token when it flips.

If I read the article correctly the flipping functions like morph. Etb abilities don't trigger. Morph triggers like the Hydra do.

Lili is blue, garruk is white, ajani is black, jace is red and Chandra is green? Just a off the wall thought.

Someone asked MaRo, and he said it was a Doug question, but Doug hasn't gotten back. I think you are right though.

As for the time travel, it seems many of the modal cards say choose Khans or Dragons which is really cool flavorfully and represents Sarkhans actions altering the timeline from Khans of Tarkir to Dragons of Tarkir

This set is the back in time set!!  Hence the dragon cards already spoiled.  Dragons of tarkir is the next set where the dragons have survived.   Hence the draft format.  Kahns/ fate.    Then fate/ dragons.

Delve 3

labradorite lotus comes into play tapped

Tap  labradorite lotus : add one mana of any color to your mana pool

{1}, Sacrifice Labradorite lotus: add 3 mana to your mana pool of any one color

Flavor: "I've found it...finally!  ....wait this is labradorite..."

I see burn playing Sage in the board against the mirror and maybe control--but it seems the lifelink is the most important part...do burn decks want a 2 CMC 2/2 instead of just more burn?

The returns to hand thing requires at least 5 mana to do anything (not including Phyrexian mana cards), and you have to activate the ability and it had to resolve since its trigger is on cast. And since it requires the spell to resolve it doesn't get around countermagic.

My gut reaction was whoa but I wonder if it's a little overhyped? I guess I'm thinking this could be more of a {Satyr Firedancer} sort of card.

The original spell does have to resolve, but that doesnt mean it cant get countered. As long as its not getting {dissipate}d it will still go to the yard upon resolution and can be returned.

So...I'm sort of freaking out at the synergy between {Monastery Siege} and {Palace Siege} as a possibility for a control deck. They're not legendary, so beyond {Back to Nature} you can make it sooo expensive to remove {Palace Siege} that you can just counter anything else, and if you resolve multiple {Palace Siege}s you pretty much win. With a little help, they're also sweet with {Doomwake Giant}, who is only made better by the new {U}{B} dragon. Usually small sets just add to my existing decks, but this one has me feeling brewtastic.

My bug walkers deck likes the idea of heroes downfall costing 5 mana

So it seems like each clan is getting a legendary creature and the allied colors are getting dragons. You know what would be cool? If wizards made the pre-release so you could choose Khans or Dragons. Like, if you went Temur and Khans, you'd get Yasova Dragonclaw, or if you picked Rakdos and Dragons, you'd get Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury.

So it seems like each clan is getting a legendary creature and the allied colors are getting dragons. You know what would be cool? If wizards made the pre-release so you could choose Khans or Dragons. Like, if you went Temur and Khans, you'd get Yasova Dragonclaw, or if you picked Rakdos and Dragons, you'd get Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury.
The prerelease boxes are spoiled. They aren't doing Khans vs, Dragons because we all know who wins: Dragons of Tarkir
I don't think the clans will necessarily die off. Remnants may still fight the dragons in DTK.
You have to realize that we are talking about a completely different timeline, so it is unclear how Dragons of Tarkir plays out, but it is obvious that the story has been set up so that Dragons vs. Khans is the conflict, and it seems silly to say in the end, "well, I guess the fighting didn't matter, so you sat through the story for nothing...."

Well shoot dang. I don't really keep up with spoilers outside of mythicspoiler.
I thought it would be cool :)
It would just not what we are getting.


On another note: how do you know when a land is bad? When the deck it was obviously made for doesn't want it:

Not being snide, were all just confirming this card is awful. I understand you're saying colorless EDH has another land, but its just a bad card and that's that.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: MuggyWuggy on January 02, 2015, 12:07:06 AM
Yeah maybe if it was

Tap for colorless
Tap; add a counter on crucible
Tap: add mana of any color equal to counters on crucible. This may only be spent on dragon .poo..

Then it would be worth the rare slot. Right now it's simply a card that should be uncommon or sent back to R&D
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)
Post by: Remillo on January 02, 2015, 12:52:51 AM
It's a Storage Land for Dragon Tribal.  Everyone always complains about 'wasted slots', when most cards at rare or mythic are garbage for constructed, anyways.  Ugin's Crucible is pretty darn sweet, especially from the point of view of a guy that loves big, stompy Dragons.  The most awkward part of the card is, unlike the TSP storage lands, this one has to Tap to remove counters, where the old ones required just a mana input, allowing some silly filtering shenanigans.

TouchΓ©. From a limited perspective, the question is: is a {Lava Axe} that returns to your deck good enough to go in most decks? There's clearly some dragon synergy beyond that so the question may not be that simple.

That sure pushes the color pie limitations.  I suppose it is close to a {pongify} effect but the fact this exiles is a huge difference and much more powerful than "destroy"

Makes me think. A manifested card is put into play top down. But in order for you to know if it's a creature... You know what is lying there right? So you can equip just the right creature and unmorph afterwards. (Or unmanifest in this case). I like how this works in my morph deck.

I kinda like how WoTC has this idea that anything {7} CMC and above can just do all the things lol.  That flample doublestrike dragon is hitting for 12 if untouched!  Not sure if it will see standard constructed but it is a cool card none the less.  And yes I am just going to say this overused comment "that card may not fit standard but it will be a good EDH card" :P

Lol, its like {Rapid Hybridization}, but more interesting and in a much weaker format, should be fun ({Reality Shift} for those interested). Just imagine: End of your turn {Reality Shift}, untap, {Drown in Sorrow} to kill your manifest plus whatever else.

It combos with {humble defector}. Activate defectors ability, in response bounce it to hand with {temur sabertooth}. Youll draw two cards but your opponent wont gain control of him.

There were at least 3 lands that I felt that way about. The minor changes are fun in regards to seeing the tiny differences as time changed, but they are indeed so very minor that it almost felt less exciting.

No, the third set is going to be completely different and will technically be a set with Core 2016 (Well as far as rotation is concerned but I bet they are of similar theme)

Yes but I believe ktk and fate reforged will rotate before dragons does.  All three will not rotate like the three block sets have done in the past.

The prerelease is going to have packs that are called "Ugin's Fate" and the cards are supposed to depict alternate realities and such. For example, the briber's purse depicts someone bribing a dragon, the new rulers of Tarkir.

{Torrent Elemental} Uh, what? Tap all creatures defending player controls?

{Neutralizing Blast}  Looks playable, no? Though a large part of me thinks {Disdainful Stroke} is better.

{Cunning Strike} If only it was like, one less mana. Maybe it's still playable? Probably not.
Title: Re: Fate Reforged (Speculation and Spoilers)

{Temur Sabertooth}
{2}{G}{G}
{1}{G} you may return another creature you control to your hand if you do ^^ gains indestructible til end of turn
4/3
Seems pretty awesome with Manifest, grab your instants/sorceries and get an indestructible. Also if there's instant speed manifest you can make opponents use up some removal like Anger or  {Drown in Sorrow}

And it has lower toughness so Bolster could be relevant. Idk. I like it. Not too big a fan of that {Harsh Sustenance} although everyone says tokens will be all the rage. (And with rabblemaster's shenanigans I'd say their right.) if Mardu uses him anyways.

The reason they did this is so the card can be drafted.  Khans/fate.   Fate/dragons.   Otherwise this card would be useless when dragons comes out and you don't draft khans anymore.
