Where is the lore behind that? I am just curious. I love reading lore! Did Sarkhan leave in bad terms with the Mardu?

He may have slightly murdered an entire Mardu army just to see them burn the last time he was on Tarkir.

The flavor is that it's a card that dumps planeswalkers called Despise, and the art is showing some big dude despising on Sarkhan, the latter who's a planeswalker.
As for their history? Sarkhan used to be a high ranking leader in the Mardu clan, but when he ascended to planeswalker status, he cast a spell that killed a bunch of warriors from both an enemy clan and his own. Zurgo wasn't all too happy with Sarkhan's recklessness and kicked him out.

Basically he feels that Sarkhan is a traitor for leaving the Mardu but they also have a disagreement over whether the dragons should be held in high regard or not

Sarkhan ascended by channeling the spirit of a dragon during a battle. When he did so, he lit the whole battlefield on fire killing many of his fellow Mardu warriors.
Zurgo was witness to this and didn't take it well.

Wait what? That's not what happened at all. Zurgo initially didn't like him because he decided to go on a vision quest instead of waiting around to be told when and whom to kill. Then after he came back he was given a suicide mission as punishment. While leading his forces in a losing battle, the strain and fear of that situation lead to his spark igniting just in time to whisk him away to somewhere safe while the rest of his men were completely wiped out. Admittedly he kinda also unleashed some kind of roaring elemental dragon thing on the battlefield before he left but how much friendly fire that action constituted is never explicitly stated, and those soldiers were all dead-men-walking anyway because of the aforementioned losing battle.
mono black aggro was already the best deck, they didnt need to reprint this =.=
You do realize that a lot of stuff is going to be changing with rotation, right? Monoblack Devotion (which was the best deck in the format) is basically not going to exist. Too many of its power cards are gone with no replacements. Monoblack aggro was not the top archetype.
Woo! I am so glad to see this. I loved Despise in New Phyrexia. I loved all of the cool black treats we got back then. I will definitely find a home for this.

It is sad that we are losing Duress and have no Liliana of the Veil though.
Storm Crow is strictly worse than Seacoast Drake.
