Our first glimpse of Eldritch Moon is of the big eldritch horror herself, Emrakul. A week early and part of a three part series, Access Magic. Along with her, or at least shortly after, we get two other quick previews. Coax from the Blind Eternities, and our Legendary Werewolf. Enter Week 1, officially spoiler season, Access Magic part 2 is all about Meld and we get Brisela and her two former half's previewed. The rest of the week seems to be a lot of Eldrazi and corruption on Innistrad but before we left part 2 of Access Magic we learned that part 3 will be Lilianna, the Last Hope. It made perfect sense at the time but now that I've seen so much Eldrazi this week it's my new theory that this is intentional story telling. We start of with the Emrakul "reveal" and two quick hype cards, one of story and one of interest to the fan base, then we get a week to brew over it all. Just before week 1 we see a hint of what's to come, a gnarly Angel Hybrid, and the back half of a preview card, Hanweir, the Writhing Township and just before Monday's access magic we get the front half of Graf Rats and Midnight Scavengers. Week 1's first big reveal is all about Meld which is shown as a mechanic that really shows how twisted Emrakul can make things. After that we get to see a lot of Corruption and not much fight but it's all leading to Monday's reveal of Lilanna. After that, I bet we see a lot more of Innistrad fighting back.
Thank you! This is why we haven't seen Liliana or Tamiyo yet. They both have something to do with whatever happens to Emrakul, and it's going to be reflected in their planeswalker abilities.
Man I'm not a fan of all the eldrazi flavor but I have accepted it. I hope this theory is correct, though, because as a red player I was starting to get annoyed at the lack of spoilers for red. but the idea of red being the color that has the least amount of eldrazi corrupted cards sounds great to me, and worth the wait. I was starting to think that they may have been holding back a red mythic because it might be a planeswalker but I doubt it with two red neowalkers in the first set, but I can hope.
If emrakul gets defeated its going to be like so lame

712.5b The controller of another player can't make choices or decisions for that player that aren't called for by the rules or by any objects. The controller also can't make any choices or decisions for the player that would be called for by the tournament rules.
Example: The player who's being controlled still chooses whether he or she leaves to visit the restroom, trades a card to someone else, agrees to an intentional draw, or calls a judge about an error or infraction.
What do you think?

RIP Batman guy. I hope somebody picks up the slack now that you are gone. Sick children need their Batman.

How about this?

Sadly, you won't. Maro said that all DFCs except Ulrich are squids. Sorry.
