I need this set!

but what is up with the cogwork cards.  Add another pack?  Do you have to buy it?  secret agendas.  do you write the card name on a piece of paper?  some of these things are super confusing, but a lot of them look like a lot of fun!  with a lot of value!

Well you usually use it In drafting, but you could do a  {Booster Tutor} depending your group

This set looks amazing, I am going to build a cube out of it. Already getting together the cards that have been announced as reprints.

Hmmm... Gamestar on tcgplayer has Dack Fayden for preorder... $59.99. Doubt it'll stay there.

Ohmygod
{Exploration}, {Rout}, {Misdirection} reprints with new and amazing art!!!
Rout has some interesting flavour text, hmm.
Super stoked about the {Exploration} reprint though. That will be amazing in my {Kruphix} edh, though I'm torn between the old and new versions.

These drafting cards are interesting. I'm wondering how shops will do this. With the card you can draft another pack {lore seeker} Do you call a judge and the store throws in another pack for you? Otherwise your spending like $3.50 for everyone to have more cards.  Or the other one {whispergear sneak}. Draft the card face up. During the draft you may turn it face down and look at an unopened booster pack or a pack that is currently not being looked at.  So you stop the draft to tell the guy across the table you want to look at the sealed booster pack that's sitting in front of him.  Interesting..

Oh, I thought it was a block set that you make packs from, like a normal cube...
You can literally open any pack you want. I might let people open packs from my other cube while we draft this, lol.

That {Rout} art is so good.....  Do want.

I like the conspiracy type cards how they use the command zone... Interesting if you daft a couple of them.
I kinda like {advantageous proclaimation}  (starting deck size is 5 less) ...

{worldknit} ( as long as every card in your card pool started the game in your library or command zone. Lands you control have tap "add one mana of any color to your mana pool"

So you have to use every card you draft for it to work, but then odds are worse.

The coolest thing about {Worldknit} though is trying to evaluate it, and deciding whether or not you should draft it. I just want to see the look of horror on a Pro's face as they open one pack one, and sit there thinking about all the upsides, downsides and other options.

This land is bonkers in multiplayer...

Only in draft. I have a feeling this won't be legal in Vintage/Legacy. Or, if it is, it won't do anything, a la {command tower}

But EDH...The reason I said it is bonkers is because of diplomacy that the card entails. I really like when multiplayer forces interactions among players.
