As much as I love Voice of Resurgence, I really only see it as a "one in the maindeck, two in the sideboard" kind of card.

I see quite the opposite. I would have four bc it puts pressure on the opponent, makes tokens AND replaces itself when it dies. Not to mention that it only costs 2. ANDDD The tokens produced grow larger. Notice that the card says tokens "have" it's power and toughness equal to number of creatures. It's not just when they enter the battlefield. So they grow. Havin multiple of these on the field gets out of hand quickly and with all the populate cards out there, it'll get out of hand. Idk just that's my opinion.

In G/W Populate, we already have an awesome two drop: {Call of the Conclave}. It gives you a token that can be populated either on the turn it's played or the next turn. Voice of Resurgence doesn't immediately get you a token, and your opponent pretty much decides when you get the token (if you'll get it at all).

Voice of Resurgence is an anti-{Snapcaster Mage} and anti-{Restoration Angel}, which is fantastic! But in a pure Populate deck, it just doesn't give you enough to work with in the early or mid game. It's semi-overhyped, but a good card nonetheless.

Hmmmm true. Forgot about conclave. My populate deck is a little more passive so I think that's the difference. I hope no one likes it bc then it will be cheap and I can pick up a playset. I have multiple GW decks so I can use as many as I can get. Also it neuters removal in my opinion. If the opponent wants to waste a removal on it, theyll give me two tokens.

Hmm agree that it is nice card but...  {Pillar of Flame}, wipes... O-ring..  {Detention Sphere}... Especially against control decks it is useless card...

Quackmaster5

Ya but you can say all those things for call to the conclave too.

Voice is good yes but I'm not going to pay $20 for it, just isn't going to happen. It's nice and all, but not THAT nice

Of course... I only do not think that it will be that great card... But time will show...;)

I just started to look at spoilers and I think the 4 color deck I am trying to make will become a 5 color when dragons maze comes out.

My thoughts exactly. I'm feeling a good ol fashioned 5C tap-out control deck coming on....

Cool to see they printed {Mana Drain} for Simic. Don't see it seeing any play however.
