I destroyed my opponent board, which had Soul of New Phyrexia, with a Polymorphist's Jest. I was at 4 life and he was still at 20+... Never hoped to get it back, but I won that match. He was so "Man, I was sure to win this, good move"
The souls being a seeded pack rare (and therefore more common than mythic) is making for a miserable prerelease environment IMO
Agreed- they've created an environment where you actually don't want to pull a Mythic.
It really should have been the Planeswalkers.
Say what you will, but those are the only cards in M15 on the same level as the Guild Leaders or the Gods.
The Souls are more like Prerelease Promos.

I ended up with
Garruk
Chandra
foil Urborg
2x Phytotitan, 1 promo and 1 non
Soul of Zendikar in my seeded pack
Goblin Rabblemaster
Waste Not
pre-registering for the prerelease got me a 3.99 dollar pack
they were all out of M15 by the time I could pick one, so I grabbed a pack of Conspiracy

I ultimated a liliana vess, which almost milled me out because i got back 2 necromancer's assistants. So on the last possible turn I swing with about 90 power. End up doing 55 damage to my opponent. He was at 63 life because of a double activated Soul of Theros. That card isn't even remotely beatable without removal.

YMTC: We need a spikey red enchantment. My creations:
RR
Whenever a player taps a nonbasic land, [Card] deals 2 damage to them.
-or-
R
Whenever a player would gain life, flip a coin. If heads, that player loses that much life instead. If tails sacrifice [card] and that player gains that life as per usual.
@ Empathogen: Actually, not many gods are as impactful as some of the guild leaders. Thassa is just a really bad Sylvan Library, Purphy... Red was terrible. Only Phenax and Keranos were phenomenal.
The guild leaders you want to open: obze, trosti, aurelia, niv, zegana.
And yea, Soul's as one of the potential seeds is just plain stupid.

Stain the mind did wonders for me - I sideboarded it in against multiple opponents who played the soul of theros, and it helped a lot

hello, Stifle!
I ended up going 1-2-bye, but I still had fun.
About on the same level as Obzedat, Aurelia, Thassa, Purphoros, Phenax, Athreos, Keranos, and Iroas,
I'd wager.

Nissa wasn't powerful enough to overcome the Soul of Theros. Either time she got out against me.
