Khans of Tarkir (Speculations and Spoilers)

[Hunteroffire9]

We're getting greedy

{Vindicate} probably is too good for Standard. It doesn't help that {Thoughtseize} is in Standard already.

A non land version on vindicate might be ok

Hah I called it! I called uttered before it was spoilers xD

Ankle shanker is a goblin.
So going in my dega midrange goblins.

[LinkCelestrial]

{Ankle Shanker} can't be legit. First strike and death touch like wth?

Pretty much hit the nail on the head here. And dudcore got shown up...lol Utter End too nice

It still isn't {Vindicate}

It's nice. I gotta work it into my Stax deck somehow.

I think cat demon is now my favorite creature type... Lol

And of course it has haste...  Is wizards trying to break magic with all of this power?
Will these guys just be edh/standard playable or do you think they'll see play in modern.  (not just this one, all of them)

Costs 5 mana :/ so probably not modern playable

Modern laughs and says before attackers ... Path or mana leak or cryptic or anything. Sure dies to doom blade isn't normally a reason but 5 mana in modern especially 3 colours is awful. No modern deck (so far) goes {B}{W}{R} so there's that too ...

Well RDW splashes {W}{B} for {Boros Charm} etc. and {Bump in the night} but this guy is not suited for that deck

[Aladormax]

Well now I am playing goblins for standard now

[Destore117]

Rakasha + {Tormod's Crypt} + Mill (self or other)

[rarehuntertay]

That goblin is {Legion Loyalist} on scary steroids...

Dies to lightning bolt. This guy might not be standard playable because of it dies to most burn but LIMITED BOMB. I sware if wizards does not print some decent instant speed burn in khans, this guy is ridiculous.

And he SHANKS ANKLES! OP

[Hunteroffire9]

I bet the 5 drop cycle is the promos for intro packs! INCLUDING THE SHANKER AND THE OILIPHANT

[rarehuntertay]

The clans each worship an aspect/bones of the dragons. Seems like a correlation to Mercadia, where the sacred relics were the bones of Ramos...

Did some research. Turns out Ramos was a Dragon Engine constructed by Urza. So I guess there is no correlation...
