Hopefully there's something here that can deal with planeswalkers
Lame, I was hoping for some green Mold Shambler sort of removal. I love that ability in green so much. But it's more likely that white is getting something like Oblivion Ring.
2 uses of Exile are on Venser. 5 are unaccounted for.
Imprint = 5
Exile = 14
Exiled = 6
7 instances of Exile were unaccounted for, including Venser; Molten-Tail Masticore just took one. We have 6 Exile and 1 Exiled instance left. Educated guess, but we may yet see a card with an ability similar to Guile or Colfenor's Urn. Really hoping for a counter spell, but that's probably just me.

May your games be chaotic and your decks be Rogue.
ok, so i haven't read the whole thread, but i did search this thread for "cast" and get only an irrelevant hit.
cast - 20
Why is this not the talk of the town? It seems like a big enough hit that it might be a mechanic to me.
EDIT: saw the black creature that was just spoiled. Apparently, "whenever you cast an artifact spell" is what the little subtheme is going to be. As I expected.
- See the reprint candidates. I did a little bit there based on what I've been going through, plus others (Molder).
- The word "different" gets a hit: see Intuition and the "Gifts" tutors: Gifts Ungiven and Realms Uncharted. Betting we get an "artifact gifts" this set (white rare?). Not sure on this point anymore, since "names" returns zero.
Well, I guess this means the remaining 3 protection swords will be a supercycle across the block. (Aside- I'm gonna call the next two right now as Sword of Growth and Decay and Sword of Heart and Soul.) I'm disappointed we won't be getting all 3 new swords right away, but I guess it makes sense to spread them out to diversify the mythics in each set.
One confirmation of the word Heart. But the only confirmation of Sword is taken.
Both Heart and Soul are mentioned, but neither of them are for a Sword.
Edit: And BTW, it isn't going to be called Heart and Soul. It's going to be War and Peace, and the rules text will be in microfont.
Sounds interesting. MaRo stated that there won't be any poison lands (not that that means anything, but his arguments that they'd be like alpha duals in a non-poison environment are very solid), so I'm really curious what they'll do.
Also:
7 instances of "Dragon"
3 taken by Skithiryx
1 taken by Steel Hellkite
2 instances of "Hoard-Smelter", which indicates a self-referring ability, so as well 3 instances of Dragon.
Then what in the name of god is the other dragon-esque artwork found on the homepage? Oo
Terrain is taken by Melt Terrain, isn't it? Might be Gorge, Portal, Slag instead.
The dragon-like image might be a drake. I know they're not supposed to have arms but if it's a drake that metalcrafts into a larger version...
Huh, we have a result for image, and an art where a dragon sees a greater image of itself. Checking the orb results. Can't literally be Greater Image assuming that the trainee is in, but that may be the right direction.
Thought so too, but there's 2 terrains so one might be the land, the other melt terrain. Unless, of course, melt terrain had a self referring ability.
As for your metalcraft/bigger drake theory, sounds very plausible. I thought about it being a drake but my concern was that there haven't been any red drakes in ages (apart from the multicolor zombie thing from reborn) and drakes are typically blue. That doesn't mean there can't be an exception, though.
Anyone speculated that perhaps the one instance of Soul is Remove Soul? Essence Scatter rotates out of Standard, so why not? It would be good but not M10 outstanding in Limited... That's my guess.

They got rid of Remove Soul in place of Essence Scatter because of flavor reasons. I doubt they would bring it back. If they brought back a 1U creature counter, it would be essence Scatter, or something new

Flavor reasons? Bleh. Legends Card seems ok. The flavor has always been clear to me... what(who?)ever is being summoned loses its soul in transit and goes directly to the 'yard, "Do not pass Go, do not collect $200."
Also would be a new player, user friendly addition to the set. WotC has been big on that lately. That being said, I suspect you are right.
Edit: With this newly spoiled Glinthawk, and a hit for Myrsmith, A picture of the 'smith cycle that indicates Myrsmith is white... Holy white/myr WW Batman. If it produces a Myr for 1 every time another artifact enters play.... U/W Training Grounds infinite mana/dude combos FTW? Oh wait, the 'smiths are triggered. Still, hmm.

Both "up" and "down" are on Clone Shell.
44
-7(Myr Battlesphere)
-4(Myr Galvanizer)
-3(Ichorclaw Myr)
-12(Mana Myr)
So that leaves 18 Myrs unaccounted for.
I'll assume from now that the average myr self references once(I think that's more than fair), and that leaves about 6 myr unspoiled.
So I would venture to guess there will be 5-7 myr remaining, bringing the grand total up to 14-16 myr. Not too shabby.
I can't wait to buy the Myr into deck!
EDI: Forgot Origin Spellbomb and Myrsmith. Counting those two I'd adjust the number to 4-5, and 13-15.
