You don't call "dying to removal" if the removal is more expensive in resources than the creature. If you have to spend BG (Abrupt Decay), or W + basic land (PtE) to remove a 1G, that is not "dying to removal". Strictly speaking Goyf dies to removal, but actually your removal is dying to Goyf.
LOVE the art for, presumably, Tezzeret's planeswalker card. But way to tease him and then go and spoil Chandra instead, bastards.
Metallurgic Summonings is good though..I may actually try running that. That's really good.
Chandra..wow they REALLY want to make a good Chandra card haha, 4 cmc and 4 abilities, totally aping JTMS. She's pretty solid though, probably the best Chandra we've seen I think.
But I thought we were supposed to see Dovin this "weekend", like I SWEAR they said during the first panel that they'd show him this weekend. Ah well. Hopefully don't have to wait too long to see Tezzeret.
Holy ****! They did it, they really made a chandra that I can play forever. Only time will tell, as it does with every card, but this is seems to be one of the very best planeswalkers ever printed and it feels like red versions of jace the mind sculptor. Holy smokes this card is just insane!
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.
Chandra is impressive. Summonings is great in spell based EDH. Solid cards. Incidentally, Tezzeret looks imposing in his cloak.

Emblems don't have colors, they're not permaments, and they sit in the Command zone where nothing can really interact with them, so even if it was red it wouldn't matter.
It's colorless, but that doesn't madder because it's in the command zone instead of the battlefield. It's basically an effect that lasts for he rest of the game.
So, they went and said "lets make a red mindsculptor because red needs love." Mission accomplished, if this isn't playable I don't know what is. A really sweet walker for once.

Yeah. Not that Chandra isn't very good, I'm happy to see her, but being told to expect Dovin kind of makes me a bit miffed when they don't do that.

I'm getting really bad flashbacks to Mind Sculptor, I dearly hope they're completely off-base.
Oh ma gawd! That art, those abilities... Chandra has finally grown-up!
