M13 *SPOILERS*

Now that the entire set has been released, when can we expect an update to the database?

when the entire set is actually released and not only previewed.

My bad, I meant previewed, but okay

[Dudecore]

I thought they'd reprint {birthing pod}. It was a cool enough archetype, and not insanely dominating, it was a cool way for players to play with all the insane cost cards, and had weaknesses and drawbacks.

I don't own a pod deck, and I can't remember really ever losing to one (I'm certain it's happened, just can't recall). It would be fun for exalted too.

[Kaleo42]

Okay guys I'm calling this right now. Everyone will be excited for shock lands retuning and then wizards will take a giant s--- on our face...

BAM TRIBAL LANDS ARE BACK!

The more this topic comes up the less i think the shock lands will return. I whole heartedly believe we'll get dual type (mountain plains for example), but i think theyll have a different effect than shock to untap. Wishful thinking, but dual type manlands maybe?

IDK, Naya Pod has become pretty dominant

Yup, naya humans and pod are very good.

I think they are going away from the Phyrexian mana costs.  That being said, they might come out with a card similar to {birthing pod} that has a regular mana cost. Idk.

So am I the only one looking forward to the M13 Ring cycle?
Seems like quite a step up from the M12 life gain artifacts.
Though, a lack of cheap black and red removal ({Shock} and {Doom Blade}) after an expansion known for having a weak suite of removal (Innistrad block). Really does feel like MaRo wants to emphasize more on the red zone and tribal creatures.

[Thorn]

I think innistrad block had plenty of removal. I'm the first person to agree that avacyn restored was lacking but the whole block?

RED
{Devil's Play}
{Brimstone Volley}
{Pillar of Flame}

BLUE
{Claustrophobia}
{Spectral Prison}

GREEN
{Prey Upon}

BLACK
{Bone Splinters}
{Tragic Slip}
{Barter In Blood} (kinda)

I'm not saying it had tons of removal but there was some.

[Leviathan]

Missing the days when {Lightning Bolt},  {Galvanic Blast}, {Burst Lightning}, and {Punishing Fire} were all standard.

It's not just MaRo, it's the whole New World Order.  Go creature combat!
