Oh man... It's freaking hilarious to see how this has gone from a sarcastic thread making fun of the ridiculous, baseless speculation people make, to actually BEING one of those baseless speculation threads! Looks like people are seeing that the thread is titled [ZEN] wishful thinking, and skipping straight to the last page to post what they wish for. Reading is tech, folks. By posting wish-lists with nothing to base them on but your own wildest dreams, you're only proving how right the OP was. I'm with Jeebus on this one (which is unusual for me to say, I often disagree with his opinions.) The speculation is going way too far. I laugh at you all.
Hear hear!
I've been snickering about this for days.
I'm getting really sick of the people that claim that Pirates are going to be in ZEN. Almost as much as the people that claim that Pirates aren't a creature type. My response?

Umm... Who said there would be pirates in ZEN? Maybe I'm not reading carefully enough, but I didn't see that claim on here anywhere...
Either way, there won't be. Maro said there wouldn't be, and it was obvious he meant flavor as well as creature type. If he said there won't be pirates, there won't be pirates. That includes pirates masquerading as rogues.

I mean in other threads. They all get locked and this is wishful thinking after all, lol.

Oh, I get it lol. Yes, I would like to second that wish.

I hope they reprint only cards I have so that I will never have to spend another cent to play in Standard. Now, that's wishful thinking.
Don't we all. And surprisingly enough, that's actually pretty likely compared to some of the stuff I've heard some people wishing for.

If they give us ten dual lands and don't print anything broken, my wishes will have come true.

Quote from Horseshoe Hermit »
Karma doesn't exist. You can't depend on it. If you count on it for justice or catharsis, you will find that you have placed your emotions on very unstable ground; and you will either repeat your disappointment in society over and over, or you will engage in a persistent delusion to protect yourself from that feeling.
The Rack would actually make sense (now art has to mean something, I think) and makes me wonder if your post is really sarcastic. If it isn't, I didn't expect such nonsense from you. If it is, well, it's just spam and trolling, which I don't expect from you either, Jeebus
Yes, nothing says 'spam and trolling' like a healthy sense of humor.
This speculation has led me to believe that ZEN is the functional reprint block. Where we've seen every single card before, but they all have different names.
Shock Lands (2 damage to you) --> Illness Lands (lose 2 life)
Wrath of God --> Ire of the Diety
Damnation --> Sweeping Plague
Tarmogoyf --> Big Face
Counterspell --> Spellcounter
Regrowth --> Reseed
Demonic Tutor --> Satanic Teachings
The Rack --> The Wheel
Dark Ritual --> Sacraficial Offering
Fireblast --> Fire Boomerang
In addition, it would seem to me that MaRo actually meant to say basic lands without their regular names and with more primal names:
Forest --> Jungle
Plains --> Clearing
Island --> Bigger Island
Mountain --> Peak
Swamp --> Marsh
Why didn't you mention the biggest "spoiler" that would fit well with Zendikar?
Golden Lotus!
I don't know where the rumor came from, but it could fit in Zendikar.
Personally I think they should finally print the original planeswalker card as a planeswalker. Jaya Ballard.
Think about it. Jaya Ballard was Chandra's tutor. She also had 3 abilities on her card, which coincide very well with the way a Planeswalker card is set up.
Jaya Ballard 1RR
Planeswalker - Jaya
+2: Destroy target blue permanent
-1: Deal 3 damage to target creature or player (Lightning Bolt, no? And that reprinted in M10)
-6: Deal 6 damage to each creature and each player
Hear hear!

I'm personally convinced that Zendikar will be reprinting Mox Diamond, City of Traitors, and Little Girl.
