Rest in Peace.
Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Oops! All Chandras.
Prime Speaker Zegana - Draw for Power.
Pir & Toothy - Counterpalooza.
Arcades, the Strategist - Another Brick in the Wall.
Zacama, Primal Calamity - Calamity of Double Mana.
Edgar Markov - Vampires Don't Die.
Child of Alara - Dreamcrusher.
That might very well explain the late-date switch. Smart choice.

Cool, I definitely need Push promos. I haven't done FNM since the Sylvan Scrying promo, do you still automatically get one for playing in an event?
Depends on the store. I think each store has a set amount that they are allocated, and then the store is able to give them out how they want.
Some of the stingier stores will only give out a portion of how many they are allocated and save the rest for later promotional use (they aren't allowed to sell them), so if your last store gave them out to everyone, I would check with that store again.
On another note, I am thrilled to see Fatal Push as an FNM promo. The price was getting completely out of control for a card that is (1) an uncommon and (2) from a set that is currently in print.
That being said, I guarantee that this promo will multiply in price in 3 years.
Generally, some fantastic FNM promo choices, though I would have preferred Rogue Refiner to Reverse Engineer, but whatevs.
Like the direction they are going with promos here. Some cards that were clearly going to be good and played. Nice job Wizards. Push alone will fill shops for FNM in September.
Okay, I was gonna say. If Fatal Pushwasn't chosen as an FNM promo, then Wizards have officially lost their goddamn minds.
These are all good choices. I had been tracking foil Fatal Push prices over the past couple weeks, and noticed a significant drop today. My first reaction was "Huh, that's weird. Did it get announced as an FNM promo?"
So then I came here, and lo and behold.
The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.
I only wish WotC had an avenue to print selected modern foils with new art. I'm not talking about anything extravagant either. For example, I'd pay near exorbitant prices for a play set of foil Sliver Hives with artwork depicting Shandalar Slivers.

I mean, Path to Exile, Serum Visions, Gitaxian Probe, and a few others did get their own FNM promo versions, but Wizards tries to aim for more competitive cards in their FNM and judge foils. They're certainly more widely popular than specific, casual-oriented examples like yours. Everyone has a favorite card they would like to see in foil, but alt-art promos aren't so cheap to produce that Wizards can afford to cater to personal requests.
Welp! This is a good reason to start playing mtg again
Just gotta wait until I've sold my house and move in my new condo (no more gf! Freedom!) first heh

July - Reverse Engineer
August - Renegade Rallier

Nothing to blame about!

foil regular Push is closing in $50
Great choice. Hub is also a great pick. Wizards finally woke up on giving away crap cards at FNM. Good move.
