Ob Nixilis card that was posted says Chris Rahn, but the PDF poster says Karla Ortiz. But it definitely looks like Chris Rahn, just look at Ajani Steadfast or Promo Ugin.

Thanks for finding proof, guys- I was afraid to get too happy before this was verified.
But now that she is-
OMG.
She's *so good*!
It's like they intentionally pushed her a bit to make up for Kiora, the Crashing Wave
(which I also liked but admit is quite fragile).
This is a set of abilities and stats I would expect at 5cmc, not 4.

looks like there is a new villain around, I am sure that Ob will try and restart his interplanar empire again. So that adds to the list of villians, Phyrexians, Nicol, Eldrazi and now Ob (although thats assuming he can still planeswalk off.
The English text implies that you get the three 8/8 Octopi when the ultimate goes off, as this text is not part of the emblem. But you do get repeatable fight text.
That Kiora looks really good. The only thing I don't like about her is the loyalty setup. Similar to Jace, Architect of Thought, the -2 is almost always the superior option and you'll rarely use the ultimate.
Ob Nixilis also looks very good, although a bit dull.
Her ultimate is weird. Do you only get the three octopi once, or every time your creature fights another?
-8: You get an emblem with "Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, you may have it fight target creature." Then put three 8/8 blue Octopus creature tokens onto the battlefield under your control.
since the emblem effect is in the quotes you would get the octopuses after the emblem.
ie: -8, you get emblem, you get 3 octopuses, then those 3 octopuses may fight some other guys. you only get the octopuses once
I just realized that the Kiora emblem allows creatures to fight themselves.
What are you getting at?
It's just odd because on all previous fight cards they were careful that creatures can't fight themselves, which is weird both flavorfully and mechanically (the creature deals damage to itself equal to its power twice).
I'm SO SICK of the "too strong for Standard" argument. It's the new "Dies to removal". We can have a two mana 4/4 with a zillion abilities, but we can't just have Accumulated Knowledge. Makes sense.
It looks like those links are all the same except for the last 10 characters before the .png. Are there any coders on here who could write a script that would try all 10-character combinations in the link and output all "real" links that hit images? Is that even realistic, or is 36^10 sequences too much to realistically handle?

And I'm sad that those octopi can't triple team Ulamog. But hey, any other eldrazi should do.
Ob Nixilis also looks very good, although a bit dull.

3/3 on playable walkers, not bad.
...Which would by why I said I'm sad that they can't do that.

ie: -8, you get emblem, you get 3 octopuses, then those 3 octopuses may fight some other guys. you only get the octopuses once
