{Scavenging Ooze} and {Mutavault} are unquestionably the best cards in the set.
Agreed

I prefer {Ash Zealot} over {Mindsparker}, but it's definitely a really good sideboard card. {Awaken the Ancient} seems too slow though. If it gave Trample that would be another story.
I would rather the opposite. Main mindsparker and side zealot for reanimator. You'll have a broader range of targets to go off from and if they play a verdict, they'll take 4 dmg.

No love for  {Archangel of Thune}?

She's stupid op, i would say it's a tie between her and  {Kalonian Hydra}.

Holy crap, finally got to play with it today, (or at least, saw firsthand what it is capable of as my girlfriend wrecked face in 2HG) that card is nuts. I was hoping for Baneslayer so when I saw that card I got pissed and comepletely undervalued it. It is an extremely powerful creature and quite the team player. I'm a huge fan.

{Imposing Sovereign}
I feel {Blind Obedience} is so much better than that card, harder to remove as not many people run enchantment hate, it does it to artifacts as well, and it has extort, all for the same mana cost.

That is true.However,what were talking about is the M14 Core Set not Gatecrash.For me at the M14 prerelease,I got so many wins with this and  {Archangel of Thune} in my Mono-White.

I guess you are right, but i still dont see it in any way being the best card in m14, or even close.

Idk dude, without haste, by the time {Mindsparker} is able to swing in, {Ash Zealot} is untapping and has potentially hit for 4 already. I love both but Zealot is wicked fast.

{Mutavault} is the card that stopped me going 4-0 at the prerelease!!! It's to good!

Plus it's the most expensive card in the set. Gratz

I like {Quicken}. It really gives control the edge it needs to beat creature decks. You can cast your boardwipe on their turn, and you don't even lose a card for being able to do it. In fact, it helps you to dig. I also welcome {Doom Blade} with open arms. I guess I'll be playing esper in the coming months. I do honestly think most of m14 is pure badness though. Standard is still about etb effects and haste. It seems like the only cards that have potential to be good lack an etb ability or haste. {Archangel of Thune} has a sick ability, but what deck would run it? Junk midrange? Probably yes, since it turns even your dorks into formidable 2/2s. However, this card cannout be a threat until you pass the turn. In fact, even if you swing, if you have no other creatures it takes two swings just to get its power to what its mana cost is worth (5). I'm not sold. Same goes for other "when attacks" cards from m14 and such.

@ coffee: if you play the angel, as most of your dudes have lifelink, it can go off on your turn. So I think its wanted in an aggro lifelink deck that somehow turns life into card advantage
