I want a reprint of  {Amulet of Vigor} so  {Maze's End} can become a real card

That would be too overpowered. {Ring of Three Wishes} works well with it though, wish for more {Maze's End}s and you can pull out 4 guildgates a turn with them.

The Esper in me is hoping there'll be a couple of Equipments too, if just a handful. It fits the mythos when considering Hercules had to get the reflective shield (which could have a reflect style mechanic) or Theseus' invisible cloak (unblockable), etc.

Edit: ... or at least I think it was Theseus... memory is hazy when waiting for work to start.

I think it'll be a safe bet to see equipment based off of myths. They'd miss a big part of the God them if they didnt

That wouldnt work. You'd be dead by then. You'd need to have 12 mana available to do that.  Mazes end costs 3 and tap to put a gate into play.

What about the sword that could pierce any armor, and the shield that could withstand and weapon?

Just run a Bant Mana ramp/control.

OOHHHHH !!
I just thought about something we could see in Theros !!
How about a Chimera !!! That would be awesome !! 

Birdbrain

{iron-heart chimera}
{tin-wing chimera}
{brass-talon chimera}
{lead-belly chimera}

I know what a chimera is. I'm just pointing out they kinda already played around in that space

Look at what was on Daily MTG today:

"Looking at Innistrad, some of the strongest cards interact with the graveyard, while most of the strongest cards in Return to Ravnica block are gold cards. Next year, many of the strongest cards will be enchantments or interact with them, because that is what the block is about. But that is a discussion for another week, very soon, when I can begin talking more about Theros and how it was put together."

Yes!!! So many people have been talking all about what heroes, gods and monsters will be like and I have been sitting here thinking "Oh great, looks like we will have to wait longer for a good enchantment set." but I guess not. Enchantments are going to be on top!!! Also it should be interesting to see what is revealed next week, me thinks that the spoilers are coming soon!

Mizark

What if the rare lands in this set would be enchanted lands ?!
For exemple:

Nature's field

Enchanted land- Forest

{T} Add {G} to your mana pool

Green creatures you control have Trample

{G}{G}{T} Target creature gets +X/+X until end of turn, where X is the number of Forests you control


Volcano Arena

Enchanted land- Mountain

{T} Add {R} to your mana pool

Red creatures you control have Haste

{R}{R}{T} Volcano Arena deals X damage to target creature or player where X is the number of Mountains you control

Etc...

You mean like the artifact lands ({Ancient Den}). Could you imagine that with {Ethereal Armor}!

Mizark

Yeah like that !!
Great potential for awesome reprints and new cards !!
