So they're gonna preview Magus of the Future? Excellent, an end to all the fakes. *Strokes Thoughtless Sensei deck in anticipation*

- MaRo, October 8th, 2007 IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAND!!!!!
Well hopefully Monday will put some rumors to rest. Its been a very entertaining Rumor season so far, I'm looking foward to seeing what Rei and MaRo are going to add to the mix.
What we're doing here is akin to taking the text of Moby Dick, locating specific words therein, rearranging them to create a passage from Fight Club, and concluding from this evidence that Tyler Durden is based on Ahab.
I want a nightmare for that 2 headed zombie. Works for my chainer deck. If it's anightmare, it ought to be good or it won't go in.

With all, put the same thing except with / in front of what type of tags they are (like [/card]) to close them.
Card: [card]
Hybrid: :symub: = order doesn't matter
The weird thing was, there were other pics from feature articles that seemed out of place, such as one of the Pro Tour winners holding a trophy, and several old cards. I had to dig for Venser. As for the MaRo article, the Future Sight pic was the most recent one, making it odd that it would be chosen. The Laquatus's Creativity pic was the second closest, so I decided just to throw it up there. If anyone finds a different pic that may make sense, post it and tell me how. Usually it doesn't give me this much agony.
EDIT: Yeah, unless MaRo masked the image link, it should be the one of Ixidor on Future Sight. Possibly previewing the Magus of the Future, or maybe a cool Heir to Ixidor?
Sweet. Two headed zombie. But maybe it's a horror or nightmare.
It kind of looks to me like a two-headed Drelnoch with shorter feelers.
On a less serious note, maybe it's a two-headed Davy Jones (from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest).

Well, the set is called Future Sight after all, so the pic makes sense no matter what he's previewing...

MaRo's pictures usually don't have anything to do with the card.
He is likely touching on the concept of the set lightly.
His articles are usually like this:
'Big general concept of set, some story, etc'
'Preview card'
The card doesn't usually fit nicely into what he is talking about.

The fact that Maro chose Future Sight to depict the article that kicks off the previews for Future Sight means nothing regarding the card that he chose to preview. His card can be Magus of the Future, but by no means the fact that Magus is in the banner and Future Sight is in the article means that he will preview the Magus.
That is, of course, he previews a timeshifted card and explains himself. Seeing as he was head design and had an evil scheme for the whole thing, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Rei did Venser (his typical legend thing) and MaRo did a timeshifted card, touching on what they meant and explaining it next week.
So it looks like they'll either be previewing Venser, or will be showing his sketch in the Arcana only.
I actually have no idea how to get the Article images... if anyone could it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to Ace of Left Play for the great banners
EDIT: Ok, we've got Ixidor for MaRo's.
and Venser for Rei's
Future Sight and Laquatus's Creativity
for Rei's:
Venser
Guildmaster Jarad
Card: [card]
Hybrid: :symub: = order doesn't matter
Spoiler: [spoiler]
Deck: [deck]
It's usually a feature article, actually. And they're all set up for story and prerelease primer. So, no Orb for you, kids
It's strange... MaRo's image has different size...
EDIT: Yeah, unless MaRo masked the image link, it should be the one of Ixidor on Future Sight. Possibly previewing the Magus of the Future, or maybe a cool Heir to Ixidor?

Two-headed Ctulhu, pal. Two-headed Ctulhu.
MaRo used the Laquatus's Creativity art in last week's article: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgcom/daily/mr273
There were several other pieces of card art in there as well.
Well, the set is called Future Sight after all, so the pic makes sense no matter what he's previewing...
