Seems ridiculously complicated. Most of the people at the Dragon's Maze prerelease I went had no idea what the guilds were and just asked for colors. I can't imagine that there will be a lot of people who will go to all nine events and keep track of all the materials that you will apparently need to hold onto for six months.
So how the heck is this going to work? I got really confused reading it. So we get more hero cards for doing certain things at the prerelease?
Erebos (the black God there) has a P/T box, so I'm guessing they're some kind of creatures.
Someone mock up the other Gods, quick! (Heliod for white and Nylea for green).
watch them be 1/1 or 0/1 with some kind of activated/triggered ability. Possibly flip cards (like werewolves), or something like the ancient guardian thing from M14.

Scavenging Ooze
Mods, Did I post properly, first time with pics.
Man, I want the sliver one, but from what I've read, I'll get the ooze (will only be playing it on steam/android). And if its like the last ones, I can't just ask for a xbox one when I bought a Steam one :(.
Hmm, kinda glad they're bringing them back (even though they are the same abilities that other previous ones had). Not sure I like the new way they are being portrayed, though. They look weird to me as human like. I prefer the old weird insect like look to the old ones.
Jus because Queen isn't coming back, doesn't mean they can't make another one like her (a sliver king, if you will. Overlord wasn't king :D).
OOHH can't wait to see what she does now. Hopefully she's good. Only champion I can't wait to see. Don't recognize any of the other ones. Boros/Azorius will be interesting.
Someone posted in the promo thread that Supreme Verdict is the Buy a box a while back, yep. (I think it just got added to the spoiler independent of an article)
He probably means the 75-card Tournament Packs they used to sell back in the Urza/Masques/Invasion era. IIRC they were something like 50 random common/uncommon/rare cards, and the others were 5 of each basic land. They sold for around $10 when the 15-card boosters (which didn't have the basic lands and tokens) were selling for $3.33, at least at my LGS back then. So it was a slightly better deal than boosters, and you never had trouble getting basic enough basic lands. They only sold them for the big sets though. For small sets, you had to buy boosters.

Shouldn't that mean we can preorder it by now?

Just wait till slivers assimilate the eldrazi into the Hive.

Ahh. Thanks.
Huh, thanks. I vaguely remember those things.
Is there a way to make it so individuals can have them shown or not?
See previous post:
What do you mena by they no longer do sealed decks? (intro decks?)
Nope!
I was thinking about the same thing, one for each color (maybe a sixth for land/artifacts).
Not sure if its been said, yet, but according to twitter, its (sturdy) cardboard. in case anyone was wondering.
(Not sure how to get the embedded links to work. Anyone know?)
