Guys.. I think wizards screwed us. Did anyone else notice that all of the basic lands correlate to the zendikar full art lands in partial art??

They always do this with preccostructed decks featuring zen lands. However, fatpacks did come with the full arts. Pretty awesome they used zen lands to fit with the walkers homeworld.

The blue deck is really pretty pitiful. There is almost nothing compelling about it, nothing new or interesting. Just a straight forward blue deck...

The blue deck is just big and durdly with creatures that have little/no synergy. Geralf has no reason being included, does nothing for the deck. Teferi is ok, he's {Preordain} to {Jace, the Mind Sculptor}s {Brainstorm}. It's just big fatties, blue has those as finishers, not for almost every creature.


Dudecore

But it's not thematic. It could just as well been anything... its got a morph theme, a single card zombie theme, drawing cards and caring about planeswalkers with Teferi, and big creatures that aren't even that cool. It is not well thought out IMO.

I dunno, Glow. I've been playing EDH for years and I've always had a theme. At least 75% synergy is what makes an EDH deck carve opposition.

They could have made a strong Morph deck out of it, or do a {Polymorph} style deck, or something. It's a missed opportunity to do something cool with a pre-con. They just seemed to jam mana rocks into a deck with no interesting creatures to play. If you're just jumping into EDH you'll be much happier spending your money elsewhere.

This^^^ Polymorph should be played by all!!! :DDDDD <3

Polymorph would be fun, it could have justified the big creatures. Maybe a new Polymorph card or two, {Mass Polymorph} as a finisher. Illusion type magic, things aren't what they appear to be! Sometimes I wish I got to design products for Wizards.
