Picture #4 goes from "Hey cool, more Mirage" to "THAT BETTER NOT BE ANOTHER ******* ELDRAZI" reeeaaaaallll fast.
I really just want more Mirage out of this. If we get SJW'ed in the face, I'm not going to spend a dime.
What do you mean by more Mirage?
Did you play back then? Mirage and Visions were flippin' rad. For as much supposed drama as there was over the art direction, I think that it portrayed the world very well. I really just love those sets, and some of these pictures remind me of Jamuraa. The animals at the oasis, the woman holding the bowl of fruit, and the snake dude with the animals all strongly remind me of Mirage.
Hour of devastation will have Bolas return and collect his minions and he will order the Gods to destroy the barrier and kill everyone since he doesn't need the place anymore.
I'm betting he shows up and kills the gods
just to remind everyone who owns the place.

I wonder if this story will be a "supposedly good characters screw up the place more than the supposedly evil character does, but it is for the greater good" kind of story and that if it is the case, they suffer the consequences of destroying the peace for probably millions of people just because Bolas is evil and they are good.

so you really must have hated the 3rd wave feminist + sjw set that was Kaladesh. Still, if you don't look at the political agenda they were trying to push with that block, it was ok as a setting (but less so as a story).
It is sad that they try to pander to a demographic that will not buy mtg products no matter what Wizards does.
How was it a SJW block? Rebels is pretty generic of a theme.

Kaladesh was pretty much "Peaceful conflict resolution as told by ISIS".
But hey, "self-righteous drones show up to destabilize your society and blame you for the smoldering crater they left behind" would fit perfectly with a 4th of July HOD pre-release.

Yup. I spent precisely $0.00 on Kaladesh. I did go to the Aether Revolt prerelease to support my tiny little comic book store since it was the first prerelease he ever did.
You're exactly right about the people they're pandering to not buying products. The same thing happened with Marvel and DC comics. They went full pozzed, and sales hit the floor. Massive drop-off, so bad that they've now finally backpedaled. I'm sure that pushed agendas are part of the drop-off in Magic too, along with simplification of the game. So now you're catering to cry-bullies who will never buy your product no matter what you do, and you're turning away your established base. Great business practices there, really.
I'm really hoping that they're not going down that path again, but let's face it...they are.
But hey, at least they finally realized that all creatures all the time was damaging. We've got that at least.
Nightshade1233 touched on something I've seen in comics a few times that I'm going to have to think about. In Miracleman and Squadron Supreme, there were themes of utopia via oppression. In MM it was due to MM being so powerful that people lived in fear, and in Squadron, it was due to a mind-wiping machine; basically brainwashing. Maybe this set will touch on some of those story beats. The people live "peacefully" due to the fear of Bolas. In both, there's a rebellion force that fights against these benevolent dictators even though there is peace and prosperity. While that exists, there's no free will in either story.
I might point out that this + events in last Block suggest that Bolas wants the Planar Bridge to unleash Undead Hordes on unsuspecting Planes. Since they are, by definition, nonliving matter. (I could also point out that 'MTG Science' reflects this, as Liliana was specifically the savior of Innistrad because zombies--nonliving matter--could not be affected by Emrakul's warping.)
I would also point out that the artwork in the Dawn half of Dawn // Dusk shows up in yesterday's story (and was the art used by Doug Beyer to announce it, if I read this correctly). So it would seem to be confirmation of the card.

Right, how about we don't attack one another and get back on track talking about the art itself, instead of attacking one another? And cut it out with the whole SJW-Pandering/Tumblr-mocking stuff.

I don't know if they need reminding. He's the GOD-PHARAOH after all, and apparently everything they're doing is to honor/please him. Ownership of the place seems pretty damn clear.
Looks like Nicol Bolas has constructed his own containment paradise a la The Island movie.
Funnily enough, it seems there's enough general peace and happiness abound that an average resident would be much better off here than living on Innistrad, Zendikar or even Ravnica.
It would be nice to see the Gatewatch coming to realize that dispatching Nicol Bolas would probably mean plunging the city into chaos.
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.
It would be nice to see the Gatewatch coming to realize that dispatching Nicol Bolas would probably mean plunging the city into chaos.
All part of his plan, really. Bolas knows a lot of good guy planeswalkers are looking for him so he's set up shop in a place where he knows they know killing him will result in innocent people dying. Using the Amonkhetu as human shields, in other words.
So everything outside the city is death. The city itself is safe, but every aspect of life inside the city is designed to train the people of Amonkhet to fight in the 5 trials, where just about everyone dies. If someone manages to complete all 5 trials, their reward is death. Man, Bolas world sucks... But hey, if this really is just a giant Planeswalker generating Rube Goldberg machine to him, Bolas has quite the racket going.
One of the coolest plane concepts I've seen in a while. I love the ominous tone of seeing a seeming-utopia but knowing devastation is ahead. Seems great, nice job Creative.

I'd place it on par with Zendikar myself. Having to live a life of fighting and trials seems about par with adventure and treasure. Pre-Eldrazi that is. Ravnica seems better.

Ravnica does has all the conveniences of an industrialized city, but there are numerous legalized murder guilds that can kill you for a variety of reasons, like because someone paid them off to (Dimir) or for fun (Rakdos). And I think RtR block made it clear that guildless Ravnicans have kind of a *****ty life.
I mean, it's still infinitely better than Innistrad. I think pre-Aurora Lorwyn was technically the nicest plane to live on we've seen thus far, but for the essential tension of what we've seen so far to work, the city has to be a paradise and the rest of Amonkhet has to be a hellscape.
Nicol Bolas is doing some next-level Sorin shenanigans with his world domination stuff.
There's implications that he's farming not just undead super soldiers but even the odd rare planeswalkers via the trials.
It's possible he may have a couple of supremely devoted planeswalkers he's 'created.' It would be cool to see those guys, if they exist. He probably sends them all around the multiverse to carry out especially important schemes.
If they go that far with it, well, as wadprime said "Bolas has quite the racket going." Nicol Bolas is totally boss.

If you're not an old geezer like me, here's the wiki on Jamuraa: http://mtg.gamepedia.com/Jamuraa
Just some noted thematic ties, and I like that, because those are two of my favorite sets ever.
