The plansewalker is awful. Its minus can't be used unless its +1 is used? with no protection from the + that just bad. And the ulitmate? by the time its online there probably won't be much left in the opponents hand and the graveyard probably won't matter. it should exile the library at least....
This planeswalker is sexy. She drops on t3 and goes to 5 loyalty immediately. That is her protection, which also fuels her - ability. That is just baus. And the ultimate? You don't have to use it if you don't want to, it's another tool against control. Even if you don't use it, it probably won't matter. Best of all, she KILLS Eldrazi.
Ashiok is very cool, but its card is not very good, which is sad. The card aesthetically is so beautiful. Her +2 isn't bad at all in limited. In fact, she feels like a very limited and casual-centric walker. I guess it's just easier to design good aggressive/midrange walkers.
Erebos is okay. He does shut down any lifegain, and has a fat butt.
The cycle is basically sideboard for certain decks. The blue mage will want to maybe play gainsay against another blue mage or against a creature heavy blue deck. My black decks can finally kill black creatures this is cool!
Ashiok is pretty nifty. Exile the top three cards of target opponents graveyard and then put a creature card under your control with her second ability? Sign me up. Even against a control deck with sphinx's revs this card might still be useful because of the +2 alone. I approve of this walker and can see her being a 15$ walker!!
Loving the cycle of hate cards (now that Green fight one makes sense).
Ashiok is AWESOME! You people bashing her are out of your minds, she's exactly what Dimir needed. Duskmantle Guildmage anyone? Sucks Jace's Phantasm is rotating out but even still, this is pretty nuts. And don't forget the new Bestow Horror...
Yeah, Aggro Mill is gonna be a thing. I wonder if it'll be doable to splash white post-rotation to include Daxos...
EDIT: Erebos is exactly what Orzhov was looking for as well, dear lord. Go go extort!
She doesn't mill, she exiles.
Still, I think she could be deceptively powerful, even if just as a sideboard card.
Planeswalker is pretty bad for constructed. It does have absolutely beautiful artwork, probably one of the best I've seen on an mtg card.
Erebos I would not be surprised to see some control deck take advantage of him. I just wish his static ability was better. Something along the lines of -X/-X to a creature on etb.
Preventing life gain isnt very relevant in the current meta.
The self-hate cards are pretty nice. I can definitely see the Glare of Heresy and Dark Betrayal seeing play. Gainsay would be good if we didn't already have Dispel

So the green fighting thing wasn't alone? Smell color pie issues on black one.
And was looking forward to more used UB effects on walker (agony warp-ish, cloning, unblockability, or draw and discard), and now I'm just surprised at ultimate and its relation to other abilities.
Erebos is the easiest of all the gods to turn into a creature. There are many BB and BBB cards in standard. This guy will be online most of the time. He also stops any life gain from Sphinx Rev and is a CA engine vs control when your life total usually doesn't matter.
The guy is the perfect answer to anything control.

Feel free to tell me yours!
I seem to be the only one disgusted by tonight's previews Of course since I am watching for 1 specific type of thing to be revealed I guess that is understandable....

Ashiok EXILES the cards, has absolutely ZERO interaction with the mill from RtR so yeah she sucks.
The flavor on the design for Erebos, God of the Dead is the most practical, simple, and elegant out of all the gods. No opponents gaining life? I gain wisdom and knowledge as long as I pay tribute to the god of the dead? I love it!
Erebos is sexy and just the god for my Tariel deck. Yay card advantage!
I was hoping Tyramet'd be BW, his red ability doesn't make too much of a splash. His black ability's decent. Eh, there'll probably be some very Timmy EDH decks springing up for him revolving around sacs and the 'yard.
That cycle's pretty much all sideboard.
So any word on what the heck Ashiok happens to be?
Ok;
Planeswalker is sweet, good? probably not but defiantly sweet!
The own colour hosers are, amusing. and somewhat decent.
Why does the black god have 7 toughness? isn't he indestructible? hope theres some -x/-x or -6-6 or something to make it relevant.

Erebos will be the centerpiece of many, many black decks during the next standard season. Listen to my words.
special thanks to sentimentgx4 for the sig
Pourquoi?
Nope, Wizards doesn't like printing good cards with U and B on them, and all U/B cards must have some sort of unnecessary mill component.
here is the link for Erebos
My 'condition' is a trial. The weak are consumed by it. The strong transcend it.

>People complaining about "not good enough walkers"
Ashiok is at least fun if not competitive. Esp in Limited and Casual.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)
Ashiok EXILES the cards, has absolutely ZERO interaction with the mill from RtR so yeah she sucks.
