So if we get landfall again, or a similar mechanic, does {The Great Aurora} become a good card?

Lol not even close TGA is the definition of cool EDH card that sucks ass in constructed

LinkCelestrial

I'm more excited about {Sword of the Animist}. It's a really great card to use.

Thing with landfall is, that you shuffle all permanents into your deck. There is no landfall ability to trigger unless you sneak the permanent in by means of an O-Ring. By that time, your combo becomes unstable.

It's a 5/8 for 6 with the ability to ramp.....artifacts don't have those type of numbers....

At 6 mana you don't need to ramp anymore except in edh. And most of the time you'll only hit 1 or 2 lands. There was some uncertainty about rarity. It better be a rare, or it'll be a worse mythic than {comet storm} in mms2

Remilio posted a pic,
Icon looks red to me...
The icon is also different from the "spoiled" damaged parking-lot fetch. So can we confirm fake?

It's not fake if you google and see zenikar vs eldrazi


The red set indicator  is for the duel deck only

Polukranos was red for hero vs monsters but is a rare in theros set

LinkCelestrial

If it interacts with {Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver} like Partical brought up in rules it will be a really cool card. Not sold on it being good even then but it could help you ramp while playing two very proactive cards which sounds good when you're trying to hit Eldrazi mana. I dunno. Without that interaction it's still a limited bomb.

Ah, doh.
I didn't think this one was fake, but the fetch. Since that one had horizontal Hedrons facing outward, and the DD vertical. I just missed the fact that it was the DD print. Silly me.
Since that is the case, it could well be rare in BFZ.
(The fact that duel decks actually have rarity is a whole different thing, since all DD's have the same content, no 1-of is rarer then another, but I imagine it's about power lvl?)
