Intriguing. I wonder what he means by "which is one of the Power 9." Obviously nothing to do with THE power 9, does he mean power 9 of Theros?

Yes he means the power 9. The creature will produce the effect when it deals damage to a player. Likely {timetwister} though could be {time walk}.


Could be {ancestral recall} also

It says "Saboteur ability", {Ancestral Recall} doesn't have much to do with sabotage

{Time Twister} on the other hand...

I could see some like this. When CARDNAME deals combat damage to a player, you may sacrifice CARDNAME. If you do, take an additional turn after this one.

{Timetwister} and {Timewalk} have been reprinted at different power levels, with much greater mana costs and things. I could see either one being reprinted as a super tough to achieve ability.

As far as Modern Masters cards that missed: {Damnation} and {Thoughtseize} missed the cut. I could see either one (or both) hitting this set.

Ohhh! I'm feeling that {damnation}!! Erebos gets pissed, smites some idiot! I like it!

Isn't {Damnation} just a black {Wrath of God}

It could be... but the art is much more intimidating

This would be a good format for damnation. We are losing most of the walkers that wouldve been OP with it.

we are losing {mutilate} right? black needs a good sweeper i believe

Thats debatable. Black has such good spot removal that it is often given poor but effective wrath like {mutilate} and {consume the meek}.

Hmmm, a 5/5 for {G}{G}.  I like.

You know there has to be a drawback. "Can't attack unless enchanted", "Sacrifice a creature when CARDNAME enters the battlefield", "CARDNAME can't be cast unless you control X enchantments" or some kind of Chroma rehash.

Spikepit

For a Chroma reference that people are hypothesising about look at {Umbra Stalker}.

Oh, there's a new board for the "Enchantment creature" cards !! 😀

This set just feels so Epic !!
