First one is obvious.
Second one says (according to reddit)
The Conspiracy card says:
Legendary Creature - Spirit, 2WU, 2/4
Flying
When ~ deals combat damage to a player, exile any number of target nonland permanents you control, then return those cards to the battlefield under their owner's control.
The name that Mark Purvis dropped at the PAX panel was "King Braggo" and that he was a ghost calling from a place called Palino.
"PALINO" was a name that came out of the ciphers used to track down Dack's card.
How is that bad at rare? At WORST it says, "when this deals combat damage, untap all permanents you control". AND you Restoration Angel your entire board. That card's going to be an EDH bomb.
The art on that spirit is awesome. If there is one thing WotC has not messed up on in general it is the art. I may have to go and draft conspiracy now.
Why was wrath not in THS block? Art and flavor text includes Heliod.
Probably because they didn't want control decks to have access to both it and Supreme Verdict, and Extinguish All Hope was originally going to be white.
Maybe it's just me (or the resolution), but Wrath of Heliod looks ugly. I'm not usually the guy to bvemoan new art, but I'll keep my sexy C13 Wraths instead.

A bomb? Like, something you top deck? Uh...no.
It's going to be a house. It's going to IN-SANE.
It's going to be banned, quite frankly.. Like, I'm not even kidding or exaggerating. It might only be a Duel Commander ruling (like Derevi), but that card--"Brago"?--is going to be banned in at least one format.
The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.

Oh please. There's far scarier stuff in Commander that hasn't been banned.
On less positive note, could that new m15 card face be any more hideous looking?
It could have been the pre-M15 card face! *rimshot*
why couldn't they put it on the back side of the card so it would be out of sight and therefore not poisoning players' eyes.
That would have made all cards with the hologram marked, of course.

Conspiracy card seems....odd and bad at rare.
Also, the Wrath of God featuring Heliod is very fitting.
It looks like it says "Bureigo".

"PALINO" was a name that came out of the ciphers used to track down Dack's card.
Very interesting...

The can't be regenerated clause. I'm kind of skeptical it's real because of that art and flavor text.

I don't, Roon was an instant classic. This guy is cool too...but he's no Roon.
The fact that we have new art by itself suggests that it's real.

That legend look really sick if there is a lot of Etb in Conspiracy and is already really sick in commander.
