Honestly, I hope that's fake. Not impressive at all IMO...

She's not fanservice-y enough to be M14's Chandra.

Besides, MaRo confirmed that the new Chandra does something that "has never been done before" in red's color pie.

I wish they'd just say ".love. it, go ahead and put her on the modern banned list. Standard is getting an amazing card this set."

As much as I like modern, I just want another $150 PW

Totally with Kaleo on this one.  First, there are some pretty good cards spoiled already, even for control despite what everyone says.  {Opportunity} is a better draw spell than {Sphinx's Revelation} in terms of pure card advantage, so now control can break from the U/W/x shell it's been held to for the last year or so.  {Grim Return} is just awesome.  I think {Archangel of Thune} could be the real deal as well. 

We also need to remember that the majority of this core set will be played WITHOUT innistrad block or M13.  All those rare X/3s that look terrible right now in a format full of {Searing Spear} have the potential to get a lot better if {Shock} becomes the staple red removal spell.  And finally, we haven't seen a TON of the cards (we still don't even know what nonbasic lands we're getting outside of {Mutavault} and {Shimmering Grotto}), and I'm sure there will be some more bombs.  I'm still holding out for {Thoughtseize}.
Ok opportunity is better if you want to draw 4.. But you lose the flexibility of sphinx's you lose the life gain, and all for 1 mana cheaper. Also i think were losing {farseek} which made for a bigger sphinx's in bnt decks at least

I just want WotC to try and make another planeswalker with four abilities, preferably Chandra.

Unfortunately, after JtMS, I'm afraid that we'll never see another.

Not gonna lie I hope chandra sucks, because I play all colors but red...and if she's too broken I'll have to use her.

Maybe they'll make a new Bolas PW
I've been wondering when they were going to do this myself.

I hope never. He was THE nicol bolas, planeswalker. I say reprint him, nothing more.. Thats my view though

I love nicol bolas. I've pulled 3 and 2 were foilies

A few reasons why standard might get a {thoughtseize}...

1. WOTC has talked about putting it in m14
2. With it not being printed in modern masters, just like {mutavault} which has been reprinted, it might share the same fate.
3. We need some good control cards. :)

Holy .poo. that would be crazy.

Wouldn't thoughtsieze be used more against control than in it? Seems that way to me at least.

Could work both ways, I suppose. Make them get rid of a counterspell, or see what they're planning so you'll know whether you should save your own counterspell.
