Oath of the Gatewatch - Spoilers and speculations

[redwolv]

Well {1} can be paid for using <1> but <1> may not nessicarily be paid for with {1} depending on if the {1} was {G} or {R}

HOLY CRAP A USE FOR {KRUPHIX GOD OF ELDRAZI MANA CONVERSION}


OMG, Kruphix knew about the eldrazi, he converts all mana to colorless and he makes sure while your hand doesn't have to discard.... that sneaky bastard...

Yeah, that's quite a useful feature there.
Tap your lands in upkeep, drop Eldrazi + haste enabler first main.

Maybe being a prepper in case the day that eldrazi might come to theros he might be able to do something?

[Kaylesh]

That's an interesting thought, popper. What would happen if the Eldrazi were to consume the Nyx? Enchantment creature Eldrazi??

[Avnger345]

Wonder if they will do what they did with ice age and snow covered lands and leave them in draft packs.  If you want that land you have to draft it.

[Kaylesh]

Well, the spoiler cards I saw had C for common as rarity, where basics have L for land. Guessing it's one of the common slots, not by far as frequent as 1 each pack.

[Codester1991]

I think the waste lands are going to be good. Add something new to the game to spice things up. 😋

[Kaylesh]

And what everyone always wanted: {wasteland}s in standard!!

2/3

2/3 DT for 2 is still nuts.  Rest is gravy.

[Remillo]

That's some pretty intense flavor.  I approve.

[General Kiwi]

Ayli is her name, she was on those Uncharted Realms online book things. She worships Ulamog and tries to sacrifice Jace and another guy to him... she's got a pretty cool flavor ability. She sacrifices creatures to Ulamog (for life) and when she has prayed enough to him (your life is 10 more than starting) she performs a ritual to Ulamog and he ends up vaporizing whatever she wants. It's like.. hyper flavor

Damn near the coolest thing I have heard all day

[Kaylesh]

That's awesome flavor right there. I love these little hints on the new set in there. Like with Kozzi being called by Ob, for example.

[Distriimuir]

Nope it's kozi, new uncharted realms just told us.

[DirtyMustachio]

Who hurt you Ob Nixilus.... why are you so cruel. Why would you want to kill so many :-(

Nissa did

[Kaylesh]

Well, in fact, Zendikar did it.
Ob planeswalked to Zendikar and got beaten by the planes raw power. (That's the short synopsis on how he lost his spark at least.)
That, and his Origins story is quite nasty. Tormented by demons, being used as their toy while all around him died. 
{Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath} into  {Ob Nixilis, the Fallen} into  {Ob Nixilis Reignited}.

[Kaylesh]

Poor Ob Nixilis...

Now I was thinking that exact same thing..
If life kept throwing me curveballs, I'd probably become {B} too..
Likely {B}{R}{G} then..

[Kaylesh]

Ob Nix just wants friends.. he wasn't trying to hurt anybody he only wanted to reignite the spark from the plane that had snuffed it out.then mean ol' Nissa came and buried him under rocks. That's just not a nice thing to do

Nissa is an elf. Elfses are nassty scheming things. Never nice to poor goblinses..
