I think generally those kind of playmats are given to winners of Game Day or some such? So you'll probably have to be in an event and finish high to earn it.
Looks good overall, nice to see some art for the cards, but hope the previews ramp up with some meaty articles on strategy and so on.

The "Crazy One", playing casual magic and occasionally dipping his toes into regular play since 1994.
Currently focusing on Pre-Modern (Mono-Black Discard Control) and Modern (Azorious Control, Temur Rhinos).
Find me at the Wizard's Tower in Ottawa every second Saturday afternoons.
The map playmat is nice. As are the FNM promos. The border makes them instantly blingy and we have two good cards to boot! The Djinn cheats commander tax but I am not sure to what end. It seems meh. Cool callback to Mahamati though. It's really nice to see a "doom blade" as well. Also, since the above post asked, the stream is the most recent video on twitch.tv/magic

My first thought was that it´s kind of boring that they use the same art on FNM promos and regular set cards, but you know what? I welcome it. FNM promos almost always had inferior art anyway, so this probably makes the average FNM card look a lot better.

When I hit my 3000 post mark, I'm gone for good.
Stay reasonable, be mindful of your expectations and don't feed the trolls.
I swear, Teferi looks a different age in every of his depictions. Also, I've been wondering about the Opt art since the spanish promos were spoiled. Could it be that his planeswalker version is actually going to be "old Teferi" (in that he'll have to choose whether he wants to stay young or get his spark back, but age)?
I think it's the other way around. The "old Teferi" has received the planeswalker spark and Opts whether to stay as he is or become a planeswalker again - a larger then life being like the statue behind him. The art conveys that quite well. It's a little inconsistent with Liliana's story that becoming a planeswalker again should make him younger by itself, but maybe he just is energized enough to shave and get in shape.
The planeswalker art still has hints of age, so maybe the depictions are just deviations around "clearly physically order than the Teen Titans/Gatewatch". I don't know how established the actual age of anyone is unless we know "hundreds of years" or "thousands of years".

Planar Chaos was not a mistake neither was it random. You might want to look at it again.
[thread=239793][Game] Level Up - Creature[/thread]
I really don't like that they removed 'to your mana pool' from mana producers. It makes the cards look unfinished.
I wish they had just switched to the Energy template instead ("T: You get G") - it might be slightly longer, but at least it doesn't look like they lost their focus mid-sentence.
I don't know or care where goldfish got that jhoira art from, I'm just really happy that my new commander love is such a qt on her card. Teferi mat is pretty dope, wouldn't mind winning that.

For those wondering, it was said in the video that the playmat of the map of Dominaria was just a regular product for the set. No special hoops to jump through and it should be available everywhere.

Chandra is 23 at the start of Kaladesh, Jace and Gideon are mid 20's -early 30's, Nissa is ~60 (but in elf years closer to 20's/30's) and Liliana is 200+.

That new FNM watermark is incredible. I also need to know when my LGS is hosting an Open House so I can score some of those Llanowars; That art in full is fantastic.

Man, that teferi art looks great. Top-notch stuff. To think that the poor guy started with depictions like this:
We certainly have come a long way in artwork.
