Knight of the reliquary...when it first came pout it was most certaintly a card that people looked at, a three mana two two that gets bigger if you have lands in your graveyard. In standard wih lorwyn though, it just did not make the cut for most decks. Without lands that could put themselves in the graveyard knight of the reliquary was just to slow and took to long to get big in a format that was dominated by tokens and tokens and bllodbraid elf.

Zenikar..enemy colored fetchlands. Fetchlands make this card 100 percent better. Its nowhere near the behemoth that it can be in legacy and extended with a lot more ways to put lands in your graveyards, but do u see how good it is in standard. If standard decks start to run the amount of fetchlands legacy and extended decks run, then by turn three when you would usually drop your knight of the reliquary it could be a five five.

Coupled with cards like terrmorphic expanse, lotus cobra, and other landfall abilitys and cards u culd fetch lands so fast and trigger the landfall that by turn four you could ramp into two baneslayer angels ad still have mana for a path to exile. Ridiculous.

One last thing. If your gonna want to play your tier one decks, then your gonna need:
4 baneslayer angels
4 knight of the reliquary
4 lotus cobra
4 noble hierarch

Knight of the reliquary was a card selling for thre dollars now its selling for 8 to 10. happy gaming, hope you enjoy zendikar, not a lot of people are.
