I'm disappointed to see Monstrosity back, but at least Constellation seems interesting.
EDIT: Also, it looks like we're definitely not getting a Damnation reprint this block, then...
Well, enchantment-based EDH/casual decks are happy with the green Eidolon. There's more in the Card Image Gallery btw. I'm not disappointed by tonight because we know the mechanics (plus I wDnt expecting that much). We have a specific kind of multikicker, a narrow ETB mechanic and mechanics from Theros & BNG. But hey at least Scry is back.
Holy cow I didn't see Dakra Mystic. Now that's a cool card design. Very unique and on a one-drop that's just an uncommon. Yeah!
So no new Ajani yet, but I definitely sense his presence.

The mystic is cool. I love Gnarled Scarhide. We have an enchantment mechanic now (finally), and an enchantress is a great way to kick things off. Speaking of kicking, strive is interesting. Decent so far, but they really shortchanged us by not giving us a god... oh well.

Constellation looks cool. Maybe Bogles in Modern will get a broken card or a reprint of a certain needed card. Strive looks the most interesting to me. Just not sure we will get anything better beyond a good common we just saw out of the mechanic.
Well I guess Minotaur aggro got a decent one-drop with Scarhide, but my favorite card here is the starfish the flavor text is awesome! Now here's hoping Kruphix will get spoiled early and he doesn't suck. Constellation and Strive both seem bad to me, Strive more so, you are just asking for a counterspell blowout with it.

Does the new black board wipe kill all the speculation that Damnation would be reprinted in Journey into Nyx? Maybe one could argue that this new board wipe acts more like a Plague Wind in the right deck.
We can hope.
Yep. Its too bad. I was hoping that they'd actually push Inspired.
Storm Crow is strictly worse than Seacoast Drake.

Hurray! Monstrosity's back! I missed that mechanic.
I really like the mystic as a card and Constellation as a keyword...here's hoping Constellation gets pushed a bit.

This set might not actually be the most disappointing set of all time( taking the crown from born of the gods ).
It might actually care about enchantments while being in the enchantment block.
It's an awful sweeper. What is there to say?

SOMEONE is going to make Minotaur tribal work, darn it!
It's better than Tribute.
