Megaflash 2U (You may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant. If you do, it comes into play with a +1/+1 counter on it)
When ~ enters the battlefield, target instant or sorcery card in your graveyard gains flash back until end of turn. It's flash back cost is equal to its mana cost plus 1. If you cast that spell this way, put a +1/+1 counter on it.

Or phyrexia has invaded innastrad. I just hope they reprint {intangible virtue} for token value
Tibalt is gonna save the day in set 2. Calling it.
So reminiscent of shadows over innsmouth, hope to see our eldrazi Titans move on to destroy a new plane!
Eldrazi would ruin the flavor of innistrad. They just did eldrazi, phyrexians are far fetched to. They will probably base it on heavy story line.
Avacyn has probably tainted or died

I agree. In the video the way the feather turned to blood and the tone of the music my oppinion is that she got tainted by liliana, just like she did with Garruk and as such is now bad, or maybe even a demon now.
Innistrad is Gothic Horror, Eldrazi were essentially Chthulu, ie SciFi. So Eldrazi would ruin, murder, DESTROY the flavour of INN. No thanks.
So looking forward to this, innistrad was the first block to release after I started playing, I kind of like to think of it as my home plane
I kinda love wolves, so happy for more tribal wolves/lycanthropes.
Also idk a link but my local lvl 3 judge said that there going to be a legendary werewolf bc they promised if they went back they'd make one
Quote from: bravado883 on November 02, 2015, 10:41:54 AM
Maybe we can take another break from Jace and get a new version or reprint of {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage}. I love muh blue and muh Jaces, but I still think they overuse him, whether he is the "face of MtG" or not.
Ya I love tamiyo! But do we know what happened to her I know she went to innistrad to study the moon cycles (boring!!) but is she back on kamigawa now?
Quote from: GlowackAttack on November 02, 2015, 04:06:32 PM
No.. no more jace. I hate him, it's ridiculous. All we ever see is Jace... jace jace jace. That will be jace planes walker 8 or 9...
The Origin walkers where gonna be poster boys I thought. However, I could do without Jace too for a few sets.
And I mean here you thought they released avacyn and she healed all the wolves etc and for once it seemed like a plane got a happy ending
And I mean lily took care of griselbrand so like
He was supposed to be the most powerful demon there.. How in the world did avacyn and her horde of angels get so taken aback!
Oh that's right
I bet you guys forgot that
{stitcher Geralf} and his sister {ghoulcaller Gisa} are still running amuck

Quote from: Taysby on November 02, 2015, 08:40:18 PM
Jace will be in this set. Image released of him sporting a new wardrobe. Probably tainted. Most likely UB
Wow. Didn't think jace's taint would come up.
😂😂😂😂
I remember somebody on here saying Jace won't go bad. Ashiok was originally evil jace but they changed their minds.
Odds are there are Eldrazi of Jace is interested. Sorin is kinda full ham about defending Innistrad so he'd better be there.
Besides all that, everytime they print a Jace I cry a little inside. I like him as a character, but I want more power for superfriends.

Not to mention Snap just got his reprint as the regional ptq prize
Well BFZ is wotc exploiting the fact that pool will buy anything if there's a hope for an expedition ... The set is terrible but wotc knew that so to sell it they added expeditions in it!!
End rant. Lol but ya I do agree with you they won't reprint Lili and snap
I don't think lotv is too good for standard... Depending on the standard of course but she's not absurd, depending on the rest of the cards available.

It makes sense BFZ seems bad. I've heard Wizards wanted to slow down standard, so in transition you'll have a worse set in. To make it somewhat playable in current standard the tango's where included as fetchable duals. My theory anyways.
With SOI, KTK & FRF and thus fetches will rotate out. Expect slower standard right there. Cheaper standard too, for that matter.
Quote from: GlowackAttack on November 03, 2015, 12:39:56 PM
Haha it is true, BFZ is a fun to draft set and is cool thematically but card pool wise it's a poop. Hopefully Innistrad 2 will have a focus on drafting because that was literally the best part about it
Bfz hasn't been fun to draft imo.

In this standard currently there's {Utter End} and {Ruinous Path} to deal with her so they'd need a few more ways to et rid of a 3 mana Walker. At least in Theros we had banishing light downfall and lightning strike to contain them. But currently Lili would be op in this standard.
They were going to reprint lotv for M15 but bc mono black devotion was too strong they couldn't reprint her. I feel like she would be too strong for std

It worked once and it would go even faster if they were lily and snap 😮. Knowing how wizards loves their cycles there's a good chance they would make a white green and red one too
Also did wizards talk about the land cycle for this set?
Quote from: GlowackAttack on November 03, 2015, 04:33:18 PM
Not yet, I really hope they bring back the {Tainted Peak} type of cards... I'd love to see a cycle of one's like "Blessed Peak" which is dependant about you controlling a plains or something. It'd be sweet having them
It would be interesting and they would be amazing in standard with the tango lands right now

That was one of the goals, as I understood.
That's glorious. The lore and the flavour has often been the deciding factor for my favouritism of sets over the limited meta. Tempest, Original Ravnica, Scars of Mirrodin and Innistrad are definitely my faves for that reason.
Like instead of printing a plane and telling a story, the story is going to force the plainswalkers to act

I jokingly made a Tibalt I would love.
1RR cost
+1 loot
-2 roast
-7 Armageddon all their lands
Starts at 3
I call it Tibalt of the veil
-7 destroy all opponents lands has been used before, on {Ajani Vengeant}. So, that one isn't likely. I do expect they make good on Tibalt, since even with the 7 reasons for bad cards, I think wizards needs to amend to the character of Tibby with something actually worthwhile.

"There is a rumor that innistrad will have something similar to the expeditions called echoes of innistrad that will be powerful cards from the first innistrad block"

Great, so now wizards wants to water down the secondary market value of everything via super chase cards. Now they found a way to not worry about secondary market values...Instead of lamenting how people pay more in secondary market instead of buying more product wizards made it so that people will buy more product for the super chase and the value of rares and mythics will plummet to dirt :(
That was the rumor. Someone might have made it up when they seen the black on black sdcc walkers. Called them ultra rare.
If they make chase cards a thing I'm going to only by singles. I have a sour taste right now with bfz and oath.
If they kill the secondary market a lot of lgs will suffer, small ones will drop out while big ones snatch up their cheap inventory
Boxes have definitely lost value
You're probably best off not buying them anymore

I agree that's why I buy boxes. So I can draft and sealed with friends. Maybe I'm hitting my seven year itch. It seems sets after rtr have been boring. Also now going back to emo land is meh. It was fun the first time but I would rather something new or older (lorwyn or ice age ).
lorwyn would be too good for standard

This looks cool though
I see we are getting flip cards again
Fifteen cards leaked. Wotc is going to be pissed again. Lol. Looking at some of the flavor text, nahiri sounds like she's red white now and pissed at sorin in this set.
Also looking at checklist card. No flip walkers
I don't care if it sucks, I will be playing a clue deck. 👍🏻
I'll have to investigate...
...yes, it is raging.
Madness! 👍🏼

Quote from: bravado883 on February 07, 2016, 03:18:43 PM
So...regarding Delirium (4 or more card types in GY), are there any flavor reasons why we couldn't see a {Tarmogoyf} reprint in this set? Like, is there somewhere that says there are no Lhurgoyfs on Innistrad? I know it's super implausible, but it meshes well with the synergies in the set and with basically all of modern spiking it'd be nice to be thrown a bone once in a while you know? Or do we NOT want that because either 1) it will make SOI boxes super expensive, 2) it will cause too much SOI to be opened, depressing the value of the other cards in the set or 3) it will cause 'Goyf to tank, making everyone who spent hundreds picking up a set super unhappy?
It's definitely not OP in standard, so I don't think that's a concern, especially with the abundance of two-mana removal that hits it and token strategies that don't care how big a creature is if it doesn't have trample. Would definitely shake some stuff up though.
in our local fb group, someone had a speculation about this, and everyone is praying for reprint
As much as ppl say it won't be too OP in standard remember that there are still fetches and hand disruption in standard without a lot of GY hate.
Going T1 duress/despise take something
T2 fetch Goyf makes a T2 3/4 in standard that can't be fiery impulsed and that by no stretch is a god hand that would be very common and for that reason Goyf will likely never see the light of standard play

I thought fetches rotate out at shadows. But I don't see a goof reprint. He's the staple of modern masters. That's the next reprint of him.
Oh no I could be wrong. I'm not sure about the new standard rotation lol my bad but still though even T1 duress/despise take a non sorcery t2 Goyf and it can't be impulsed
When shadows comes in, khans and fate rotate out. No more fetches.

Rumor sounds like bs, why haven't they shown the rares or mythics if they stole a box? Seems more like the small group of people that get glimpses of the set early took some pictures they weren't supposed to, like last time and the time before. Lol
Now that I think about it, since we are returning to a plane of ghost, ghoulies, demons, things that go bump in the night, and Emrakul hanging overhead (?), it would be the perfect set to reprint {Damnation}... Or something akin to {Hellfire}

It's the duel deck symbol.
The most plausible theory I've seen is that Avacyn has decided that the only way to keep Innistrad safe is to be a complete dictator and control everything, causing the Angels to essentially be the antagonists.
I hope we get to see sorin again. I love that guy.

One form adding loyalty the other lossing it? Or will she be another gideon/sarken and have an ability that makes her into a */* werewolf for a time? Oooh the possibilties
Nice like {Garruk, the Veil-Cursed}
😝😝😝
But here is the question. Leaked checklist card doesn't have a named individual on it. There are 24 cards listed on checklist. But card number says ck1.
Innistrad only had 20 flip cards on 1 checklist.
Would they print more than 1 checklist? It would screw up drafts if you didn't open a checklist card for your cards on it.
Maybe she has 2 cards in set. One as a legendary creature (human). And a pw card in werewolf form.

The article reads like she may only have the walker abilities in werewolf form, so she could function like a flip walker does
But that is my whole point, how will it work? I think it is safe to say that she will not start as a creature like the origin flip walkers. Will she have a flip mechanic? The two pictures on the articles gallery hints yes. But how will it work? Will she will it be a static trigger that flips her like current werewolves or an activated loyality ability?

They also do many cards to represent the happenings in Lore, Wolf art could be a sourcery of her first transformation in the church. Like Surrak's bear fight.
It could be like how they did {Garruk Relentless}

True, but he had name on checklist. This pw doesn't
Nobody taking about how Avacyn is the baddy in this one?
It says she has the ability to change at will back and forth with relative ease. That sounds nothing like our current brand of werewolves. I'm think an activated ability on both sides of the card. Sorcery speed for both probably.
She could easily be something like {Convicted Killer} on one side. Plenty of generic enough names in R and G to fit.
Arlinn may just appear in Eldritch Moon. We're very likely getting a new Jace and Nahiri in SOI, having her card wait a set is not unlikely.
Jace, Sorin, Nahiri, Arlinn. Maybe Tamiyo somewhere but highly unlikely.
Maybe a flip card like the kammy block.

Too much text to put on one side of card to flip like that.

The face behind Jace reminds me hardcore of Oona. I would be so pleased if it turned out to be Fae hijinks causing the moon to phases like the shift between Lowryn / Shadowmoor. And causing the crazy people. Just gonna go ahead and make my own story. Oona - Planeswslking Fae/Demon.

Yeah. I'm thinking they release the video for the set or we find out the story of shadows. The only thing we really know was the falling feather and avacyn symbol warping.

We also know that the humans are killing the Angels, that not all the werewolves were "fixed", that demonic possession is becoming more common, that many of the lesser wards to keep evil at bay are failing, and that the werewolves believe something truly evil and powerful is coming and that must gather in number to defend innistraad against it.

I disagree. So you can't use it with a haste enabler or as a suprise defender. You can still bring it back on your opponents eot. I don't think it coming back tapped will make it unplayable.

So maybe tamyio pw card in moon
Declaration in stone, I'm so hypeddddddd
Calling it. Tamiyo pw as she is a MOONFOLK from kamigawa and was studying the MOON of innistraad a plane with mystical gothic horror feels. Also feel a jace pw but that seems likely only if the investigation is over where tamiyo is.
Avacyn flip card!! Means 2 checklist cards
And that also means flip walker.
Maybe tibalt is the antagonist and he made everyone go crazy ('madness)
Avacyn flipping red
from the cards flip ability it looks like Avacyn gets angry by the death of her protected people, and devides to "purify" the plane from the being doing the killing

Thraben Sentry flips regardless of what side it is. I'm 95% sure that if you have white avacyn, two creatures die.. within 2 turns you get to have white Avacyn back. She flips once a turn.
Nope. When a creature dies with white Avacyn out, a delayed trigger is created. For every death.
One trigger means she flips to red. Two triggers flips her back to white.
11 death triggers leaves her on the red side after flipping 5 times.

Looks like an awesome thing to do in commander. Boros tokens, {Chandra's ignition} and sweepers. Get a bunch of flips out of it, with some other "dies" triggers, wipe the rest of the board, finish off with a bad-ass flier.

Thraben doesn't flip regardless of what side it's on. Say it triggers 3 times. It would end up on milita if you chose to resolve it there. If later in turn or next turn more creatures die, there is no card up called sentry, just milita and milita doesn't have that ability to flip.

She will flip, regardless if you might not want her to. And your creatures will become indestructible the turn she enters, even if you wouldn't want that for the bomb effect.
You can only have those triggers activate on the white side, so she can't get back to the white side without some other effect once she's stopped on red right?
New rule change
3. No flippy-floppy
I've saved our most technical change for last. Here's the new rule: if a DFC has an activated or triggered ability that transforms it, that permanent transforms only if it hasn't since that ability was put on the stack. What does that mean? For example, say you activate Elusive Tormentor's ability, then you activate it again in response. Why? Because you want to discard a lot of cards. Why? We're almost there. Relax. The first ability to resolve will cause Elusive Tormentor to transform, as expected. But the second ability won't, as Elusive Tormentor has already transformed because of the first ability.
I'm still super confused
Basically once card is transformed. If there were still triggers on stack. It won't flip back over. Once it's transformed it stays transformed unless otherwise noted.

Transform is now being directly labeled as an ability that flips a card from its front side to its backside. this means that a card that has become transformed cannot be transformed again. think like monsterous, it has to be flickered if you want to do it again.
Not entirely. If you activate a transform ability, the permanent will only do so if it hasn't transformed before the ability resolves.
From seeing {Warped Landscape} and {Thraben Inspector} looks like we spend Shadows Investigating and find out on Eldritch Moon that Emrakul is hiding or just chilling in the plane underground. Could be Merit Lage but I think Warping is more related to Eldrazi (shout outs to {Warping Wail}), and Eldritch does share the first four letters with Eldrazi (even tho it just means "weird, sinister, or ghostly"). The flavor text on Warped Landscape says "Each cryptolith twists the plane's mana, bending to a singular purpose." so something is stealing the planes mana for its purpose, and the tentacles seen on both cards do look like Emmy's. AND "there's more to Avacyns madness" in {Tamiyo's Journal}. Maybe The new Emmrakul (if new Emmy) is controlling the mind of Avacyn or warping her thinking (gains control of creatures when it's cast)?

(http://i.imgur.com/6GDNHXs.png)
Here's the lore for Emmy, courtesy of mtgsalvation:
Quote
Emrakul is the Titan of Corruption, the largest and most fearsome of the Eldrazi. She does not affect unliving matter - rocks, water, etc...but twists all things living, be it plants, animals, or sentient beings. She causes silent terror wherever she soars, embodying desolation, emotional and physical distance, the chill of the void, and the terror of being alone.
The Emrakul lineage is characterized by fleshlike lattice structures, uneasy bilateral symmetry, and tentacles that end in knobby, vestigial digits. Looking like spongy, alien baleen, the lattice respires independent of the Eldrazi itself, supporting a host of unseen mite-creatures within. Some within this lineage, including Emrakul itself, float above the ground, using unknown powers to alter the surrounding gravity.
The onset of terror and increased aggression would fit Emmy on Inistrad. However, as Sorin's creation as guardian of the balance, I'm as yet unsure why Avacyn would've affected like she seems to be.
Nahiri standing in the middle of warped landscape?

Nahiri standing in the middle of warped landscape?
I was thinking the same thing. But wanted stone forge. 😈😈
I thought I saw someone ask Mari if Emmy was on innistrad. He said no
Why exactly is Nahiri pissed at Sorin?
But he rez'd Ugin...why didn't he come back with him? And why didn't Nahiri go fight the Eldrazi? And why does she make it sound like her plane was attacked? Where's Nahiri from? So many questions.
But Sorin was looking for him...I thought he helped? Or did he think all was lost? Sounds like a miscommunication. I just want this resolved peacefully because two of my favourite Planeswalkers are about to throw down.
{Bitter Revelation} flavour text.
Sorin and Arlinn Flip-Walker all but confirmed by LSV
https://twitter.com/lsv/status/707035070847057920
Interesting thought, could Nahiri possibly be the cause of all the weird stuff happening on innistrad? Some sort of cursed stone thing?
Idk, but {Thing in the Ice}!!!!!!
Holy cow this card is nuts!!
Edit: I saw a prediction floating around that Ms.Marit Lage might be the entity hanging out on Innistrad. Now that would be sweet!

Been some long standing conjecture on that as a tentacled indestructible non-planeswalker entity still capable of walking between the multiverse...
I remember reading somewhere that Lage was confirmed to not be an Eldrazi, but just another very old entity. She's also {B} aligned, and not colorless.

Very relevant
So, continuing with the Big/Small block structure with five Planeswalkers per block (three in first set, two in second), here are predictions based on what we know:
Shadows over Innistrad is confirmed to have Sorin and Arlinn. The third is most likely going to be Jace, as he appears to be the protagonist.
Eldritch Moon will likely be when we see Nahiri appear, probably because Sorin doesn't confront her until then. Tamiyo is also known to still be on Innistrad from some super dope spoiled artwork, so there's a chance she's the block's last walker, unless they have her as a background character and some other minor character fills out the roster.
But like Jace has always been blue and tamiyo is blue, could one of them be another color this time around
I hereby dub {Thing in the Ice}, Ice Cube. Although I'm also digging the currently popular Titi 😆

That, or Jace's actions recently have caused him to move into UW Territory. We've had multicolor walkers that share colors in the same block before (Xenagos/Kiora on Theros, Kiora/Nissa on Zendikar, Sorin/Narset and Sarkhan/Narset on Tarkir)

After watching the video. I think have will be blue/black. If not another flip one side blue. Then goes black
I really hope thats not the case. I get it, black is dark tainted magic but i am tired of all the people getting corrupted by it. At least add a few people getting purified and being maybe "tainted" white or something to balance it out. I know innistrad is a dark realm but at this rate everything be will be at least half black. Tainted mill focused jace? Suprised that has not been done yet. Oh wait it was, we call it {Jace, nightmare weaver}.
Please stop ruining all the unique walkers by tainting them WoTC.
Quote from: GlowackAttack on March 08, 2016, 07:13:17 PM
Ajani was "tainted" red with ajani verdant when he found out about his brothers death, so maybe black 9snt the only color of "taint" maybe red will be as well. I'd love to see a primarily black walker be tainted by white or blue because they turned good haha
True. Look at avacyn, tainted red. But I strongly agree. I want to see a bad(black) walker get "tainted" good. Maybe liliana gets white and she finally brings back her brother, or better yet she could finally undo garruks veil curse and remove his black taint.
Can we all stop saying Taint? Anyway, is it not somewhat of a white taint when spring went Markov to Lord of Innistrad? Though he may not have been strictly "bad/evil".

I am in the group that thinks {Nahiri, the Lithomancer} is pulling some stonework .poo. on the moon. I mean she crafted hedrons ugin used to bind the eldrazi.

Well, he didn't show up to save her plane, so now she destroys his?
Childish, but not unheard of.
Here is my view on how things are gonna go down. The shadow over innistrad (SOI) is avacyn, but not just her but what her fall means to sorin. In the art posted earlier it looks like sorin taking care of her with jace and taymo watching. Avacyn's corruption is horrible, not just what she starts to do but what it means. The creatures that she had held at bay will be coming back, and getting another protector will be a "temporary" measure until the new one falls unless sorin finds some way to prevent it.
Then there is this new clue mechanic introduced. I think sorin won't know why avacyn turned bad, but i think Jace is gonna go poking around and learn that something is not quite right.
This leads to eldrich moon. Its to early to really say for sure what will happen. Its safe to assume nahiri is there and I think she is the one causing whatever it is that happens. Now while i hope she is just doing some stonework magic on it as i wrote this I noticed something.
A few of the cards spoiled so far have had wierd tentacles. We got the colorless land (with what looks like nahiri) and there is an white creature card with investigate that has the person looking at tentacles-like stuff on a wall. Also the magnifing glass card seems to me like in there is a tiny eye in the wound under the lens. Now while i hope it is not true i think that emmy is here/might be coming. I did hear that SOI started develop while the 3 block design was still in effect, so maybe nahiri is trying to lure the last eldrazi titian to innistrad so sorin will have to help fight them. And orginally in the third set of this block was meant to have emmy in it. In other words, one titan per set.
The one Titan per set idea was used in development for BFZ-block. By that time it was thought to be a three block, I understood from an interview with the lead developer.
Nahiri does know how to lure the Titans, so it would be plausible. Whether it is to punish Sorin for not showing up, or forcing him to fight, or maybe both.

Agreed, I'm over Eldrazi already.
Don't get me wrong, I thought I'd hate them, I enjoy them. But innistrad has a very special flavor and lore and I'd like to keep the creepy horror going, cosmic horror would ruin it.

{cosmoc horror} is awesome, since it doesn't get sacrificed, but destroyed if you don't pay the upkeep. Get some regen + untap or indestructibility on him, never worry about his upkeep cost.

Ya know what's saddest about tibalt? It isn't HIM that players don't like, it's the card abilities. If they printed Chandra with those EXACT same ability, people would hate her. Poor tibalt is a victim of chance. I happen to like the character, I hope wizards prints him again on a real card
His card fit his lore very well, true he should have been better but they did a solid job of conveying his character.
His character is most of why I hate him. He tortured people for fun. That passes evil villain and reaches into disturbing in my books. Some people like him as a character but I'm pretty sure Sorin killed him (if you have evidence to the contrary let me know) and I'll be happy happy happy if he stays deaded.
What I would love is a redemption arch where he comes back B/W and teams up with Sorin. After him and Nahiri become friends again. But that's a bad fanfiction that I won't be writing.

Plenty of new spoilers up on mythicspoiler! But also notable is...
Nahiri, the Harbinger
2WR
Planeswalker - Nahiri
+2: You may discard a card. If you do, draw a card.
-2: Exile target enchantment, tapped artifact or tapped creature.
-8: Search your library for an artifact or creature card and put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle your library. It gains haste. Return it to your hand at the beginning of the next end step.
Starting Loyalty: 4
http://www.mythicspoiler.com/soi/cards/nahiritheharbinger.jpg
I don't like her :( it doesn't fit her lore why does a lithomancer have a draw ability? Her -2 and -8 are more appropriate for her but still stretching it a bit.
Game wise she's decent with Madness I guess but her -2 is what she'll be good for mostly. Idk if she'll be good or bad yet but time shall tell :)
Her -8 seems lackluster to me. But then again she gains loyality with a +2 and that makes it easier to get to. I guess if you think about it, her thing is just a creature tutor which lets you get a quick attack or tap effect in.
{Startled awake} - {persistent nightmare} gives me hope that mill, my favorite deck style, might make a return to standard play give time. Plus there are delerium stuff so people would have a way to punish/combat mill decks
Seems like Avacyn is getting "terminated" this set based by the flavor text of "Anguished Unmaking"
Mythic wolf
That's cute
So reprint of check lands?
Mm does it stay attached when both transform?
Its a pretty solid peice, and bfz/ogw had some equipment loving cards, maybe we might see some kind of equipment deck form
Vampires, zombies, and spirits oh my!
Ally equipment.
The Heirloom seems insane with the Inquisitors. Equip, move to end step, exile a dude and it's a 7/7 First Strike?
Holy Falkenrath Glutton! That's the red vampire in chinoreancan'tread. Took me a while to find a name and what it did but damn son!
-----------------------------
Falkenrath Glutton - {R}
Vampire Berserker - R
Vampire creature cards you own that are not on the battlefield have Madness. Their madness cost is equal to their converted mana cost.
2/1
-----------------------------
Seems pretty damn good! The aggressive cost makes the ability actually worthwhile. Let's see some killer vamps now! I remember {B}/{R} vamps in old Innistrad Standard. This card could be extremely good!
Side note - who the hell is Old Rutstein???
EDIT: Whoops! Sorry, I accidentally put it as a 2-drop. It's a 1-drop people. It's a 1-drop.

Or naya, has at least 2 walkers dual colored for them now
Double quotation mark hype!!
WB Sorin may represent white or black
RW nahiri is red

What are the predictions for the other two
We have two blue affiliations in jace and tamiyo
And Liliana is around apparently per black unless one of those blue walkers gained a black affinity
We got a new Jace
{3}{U}{U}
Starting loyality - 5
+1. Scry 1, then draw a card.
-2 return a creature to its owners hand
-8 you get an emblem "counter the first spell an opponent casts each turn"

I think you're right. Sorin will probably be WB or just W and will represent white. I think it will be next set, but Lilliana will be black and Tamiyo blue (assuming nothing has or will happen to her).

LSV has confirmed that Sorin is his Preview Card, and next set will most likely be Liliana alongside either Tamiyo or some other character. We have our Green-aligned Planeswalker already in Arlinn, so it's possible we get a U or UX Tamiyo.
As for Sorin, he's probably still BW, and that will mean all five colors are represented in planeswalkers in a single set, which is pretty cool.

We do know the 4 in his set
Maybe we get 3 pws in moon!?!? Garruk is still on innistrad.
"Liliana still carries the Chain Veil, and Garruk won't stop until he's cured of his intolerable death-tainted state. After failing to corner and defeat Liliana Vess on Innistrad, Garruk was captured by a commander of the Gavony Riders named Odric. Accused of a crime he did not commit, Garruk became enraged and escaped his captors. The Curse of the Veil had taken hold.
Now, Garruk continues his search not just for Liliana, but all Planeswalkers. The curse transforms him into a creature more unrecognizable with every kill. He embraces his newfound darkness and considers every Planeswalker to be his prey."
That's actually awesome!!

Lightning Axe, instant speed... makes you discard. Does that mean you can flash in creatures with madness?? Cuz like, flashing in vampires seems good.
Yup. Madness bypasses normal timing restrictions. Good thing, too, because there will almost never be a time when you would have to discard where the stack is empty.
SIGARDA!! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE GREEN?!?! She would be such a good addition to my Kaalia deck 😭😭
2 new lands
Sorin is 6...
And his art is sooo baddddd
Not into the new Sorin. We have cooler cards this set.
Lots of people Are saying he's busted so I wonder why I'm so depressed, for 6 I thought elspeth was a little better both protect abilities
You need to consider the meta during theros and now. Theros was a fast set, aggro decks could kill turn 4-5 reliably, and mana ramping was not as good as currently. getting to 6 mana took awhile but the trade off was a potent walker, who could hit an empty board and keep herself safe.
6 mana is not the hugest strench now, we got 8-10 drops now creeping onto the battlefield.
First off his starting loyality is 6 which is rather good, elspeth started with 4.
Sorin gives you card draw and possible damage. Which can be great for recovering steam or finishing an enemy in the mid-late game. His -x lets him come out and clip a walker or creature which while not the strongest is still effective. And that -9 could be decent in standard, and pretty sweet in edh.
I will say I wish the art was better, his armor looks derpy and whats with that background?
Edit: thank you kaylesh.
Ehm,Red, Sorin's +1 is reveal top, put in hand, opponent loses life equal to CMC.
His -X gains you life.

NP.
I really like the nice little innocent colorless land that becomes a demon.
Not very playable because of the steep cast (land drop + {5} + 5 creatures), but very nicely done.
I'm playing devils advocate because I really want to play sorin I just need the confidence
Wow this set looks amazing. I will have to bite the bullet and buy a box
I really do like some of the cards but we have only seen like 1/3 of the total cards. And of them we have seen alot of the mythics, sure there have been some great single cards but where is the theme, the flavor? Our first time to innistrad was home of 5, 2 colored groups. Humans/angels, spirits, zombies, vampires, werewolfs. And the last few sets were people V eldrazi, 5 dragon/khans. You could pick a side.
So far SOI seems to me like its evil avacyn vs sorin but we know how that has ended. I don't get the feel of werewolf packs, evil spirits, and zombie hoards. I really hope this feeling changes as the next 2/3's is shown.

Well, even only +1 into something like {desolation twin} seems worth the mana. ;)
Or +1 into {defiant bloodlord}, next turn cast it and -7 something. That's 14 life gone, right there. Sultai ramp/vampires to pull it off before T7?
Sorin really isn't that strong :( he's only good if you're ahead on the board and if you're behind on the board he does almost nothing except become a 6 mana {Ruinous Path} idk just doesn't seem as worth as Elspeth who was an amazing 6 mana Walker! (Please reprint her 😔 lol)
Also that new demon land is sweet I'm going to try it with {Secure the Wastes}. I think it might be good enough to be the wincon of a control deck :)

I'm not really sure why you think it's just Avacyn vs Sorin. There is a bunch more going on lore and purely card wise. There have been 9 wolf / werewolf themed cards, spirits, zombies, Angels, demons, and plenty of vampires.
As far as lore goes, we know that Avacyn is killed by Sorin, Nahiri is pissed at Sorin, Liliana and her demon friends are up to no good, and that something is up with Jace and Tamiyo.
If you ask me, there are loads of ways this set could go as far as themed decks go (wolves, vampires, zombies, spirits, demons, or Angels).
We also have 200 cards ish to go
Plus the possibility still of Emrakul hahaha it's becoming less and less likely everyday lol but I can still dream!
If Emmy is here it's in set 2
The werewalker's story is pretty solid and I'm intrigued to see how she ties into everything.
There's Sorin vs Avacyn then there's Avacyn's followers vs werewolfs, vampires and zombies.
guess Emrakul will be in Eldritch Moon, cuz Jace is looking for clues what happened in Innistrad

apparently the translation is as such:
Burn From Within
XR
Sorcery
Burn from Within deals X damage to target creature or player. If a creature is dealt damage this way, it loses indestructible until end of turn. If that creature would die this turn, exile it instead.
Basically, a Sorcery-speed burn spell that bypasses indestructible.

Yet another cycle of rare allied duals. These ones come into play tapped unless you reveal a land with a type they produce (for example, Gruul one asks you to reveal a Forest or Mountain) from your hand.

Think this will make shocks go up?
Well, they won't go down.
But these lands aren't modern playable so they won't make shocks change in value at all.
These aren't even remotely playable in modern imo. I think that they'll be good in standard though
Sin prodder {2}{R}

At your upkeep reveil top card of deck. Your opponent can pick to have sin prodder deal damage equal the cards CMC to them. If they do put the card in your graveyard, if they don't put the card in your hand.
3/2
Thoughts? I think is could be pretty good paired with that red enchantment that got spoiled.... {Harness the storm}. Where you can cast cards from your grave yard if it has the same name as a card cast from your hand
I think it's pretty darn good anyway
It doesn't replace your draw step, you can still draw them just fine. And red your probably curving out around this guy anyway. Let them pitch my lands I'm okay with that
I think you may be a little to cautious it's not like they'll see every land every time
Statistically it'll make no difference. Reverse {Dark Confidant} sounds broken. Jeskai/Grixis control, burn...

It's confirmed there will be 18 mythics. Does that raise the chance of opening a mythic to 1:7? Probably not. This is a 297 card set. Khans of Tarkir was 267.
I hope it raises the chance, I mean we obviously go down on the chance of hitting the mythic that we want

It may even see standard play. This set has a lot of "return land from graveyard to hand" most likely setting up standard to make this thing viable.
*Edit* this could be good with some of the landfall elementals too. It allows you to get twice, even 4 times the landfall triggers if you play something like {Evolving Wilds}
Standard doesn't have {Crucible of Worlds} though ;)

{seasons past} seems very abusable in U/G.
(4GG, sorcery, return any number of cards with different CMC to hand, put SP at the bottom of your library).
Let's choose {Mystical Tutor} as 1-drop, or {Ethereal Usher} as 6-drop....
U/G decks are probably full up on that slot with {Praetor's Counsel}. But you never know. I like the card, anyway.
Counsel is only one-shot, though. Since {seasons past} never hits the yard, it could be very hard to deal with. (It would have to be countered or discarded to even hit the yard).
It's often better for cards to go to the graveyard than to the bottom of the deck. The graveyard is more often than not more accessible than the deck.
Also, even though it is a one-shot, Praetor's Counsel usually generates so much card advantage that you'll most likely win a game in which it resolves.
Full spoiler up
{Unruly Mob} is back at it again!
My wolf deck is going to get a huge revamp.
So many nice puppies.
Howling at the moon with joy.
And unstickied.

How about the 1 drop black {lightning helix}
I guess I'm missing it.
I see only 2 black 1-drops. {Dead Weight} reprint and a sorcery that exiles a card from the yard, gives you a zombie and gains you 2.
Anyone else liking {Skin Invasion}?

Holy crap!
That card looks damn good!
Is there enough fuel for RDW in Standard?

How would that be used? Would you put it on an opponent's small creature to make it so you can easily get the transformation? Or would you put it on your creature as an I-dare-you-to-block-it creature?

You could use it either way...maybe use it on your own creature and sac it....there's a lot of options. I'd probably use it on their creatures but it also depends on the kind of deck your using....I just think the card is pretty nice ha

{Alms of the vein}, and its madness cost 1. Otherwise, 3.

Ah. That's why I missed it.
On an aside, what are the odds of Odric starting to cleave heads and teach a Scotsman how to fight?
Kudos to Manaleak for posting the pics of Ramirez (Sean Connery) next to the new Odric.
