Its foil rare so the symbol is mythic rarity's color made darker? Oh, that makes perfect sense.
The border of a rare symbol is black, the border of a mythic symbol is white. Are you saying the border on that symbol is white?
Also, the artwork has a lot of yellow on it, but in this image it was all warped into reds. If the yellow on the artwork was warped into reds by the bad quality, I'm pretty sure the yellow in the symbol being also warped into red isn't outlandish.

For the card being #9, I don't see it as wrong at all. Champions of Kamigawa had one that started at 11 and that set was a bit bigger at 307 cards. If it were a 249 card set like Theros, it would easily be at #9 or less.
Like Kamigawa, this set will be using a weird naming scheme because it will be using Greek mythology like Kamigawa did with Shintoism. It will be a lot less American/English in naming as all the other sets are- so there could be a bit less A-G.
[QUOTE=Guinea Pig;/comments/12464477]1
2 Cavalry Pegasus 3 Celestial Archon
4 Chained to the Rocks
5 A C,D, or E card
6 Elspeth
7 Heliod
8 Another card that starts with Heliod
9 Hypatia of the Pegasus
I think this could be done easily.

As for the effect, it seems like something Wizards would do, not a faker. Also it isn't OP at all. You have to pay WWW so it's hard in multicolor. Also it doesn't even get its effect unless it survives to the attackers step.

Lastly, the image is holo. I was part of the alt card threads here on Mtg Salvation and I've made tons of altered art holo cards in the past and they look amazing, but a bit different than this.
The fact that this card is holo can prove that it's real. As a matter of fact, we've had holo spoilers cards in the past make people scream fake and they all ended up real. Many smart people here found that they were real before it was confirmed just because they were holo alone.
^What was that set with all the spoiled holos... was it in the Zendikar or Alara blocks?
One thing that no one has said is that it doesn't have heroic. Now this doesn't prove anything but so far the other human heroes we have seen have it. With everything else it just adds to the feeling that its fake.
It is a well designed card, but as the great designer search showed wizards doesn't have a monopoly on good design.
I dont know. This would make White uber powerful with Archangel of Thune. just dont see it. So on T3 you can have this and two creatures at :symw::symw:, :symw:, T4 play Boros Reckoner, and swing, gaining 9 life, then curve into Archangel of Thune and pump your army?? Ideal circumstance surely, but nuts. If it is real, WhiteWeenies is going to stomp on a lot.
nice pointing out the non-heroicness ^
I could see something like: heroic, whenever she is targeted, creatures you control get +1/+1 and flying (and first strike?) until end of turn.
Besides, early estimate are putting around 37 cards in each, so H at number nine isn't that much of a stretch. Also, core sets tend to have a couple angels which is probably something Theros won't have.
Pathrazer of Ulamog is irrelevant. It was part of a set that included colorless (read: "non-artifact coloroless") creatures and spells that were placed before W. That means that Affa Guard Hound is the first W card and #9 is Glory Seeker. The first "H" card is Harmless Assault @ #11 (discounting eldrazi spells for the sake of argument) and the only "Hy..." spell is Hyena Umbra @ #13. It's still closer to #9 than most core sets, though.

We've seen a total of 2 humans from this set (3 if you count this card). Not every creature that is a human can be a hero and not every rare or legendary human creature has to have heroic. Aren't Humans one of the most prevalent races on Theros? If so, if the vast majority of Humans were Heroes (a.k.a. had heroic), then they would be less special on their plane and "Hero" would be a meaningless title. I doubt that many would seek heroic fame and glory when that fame and glory is being passed out like gift bags at a 5-year-old's birthday party.
That, and you know what they say. If Wizards started shipping $100 bills in boosters tomorrow, people would scream and cry and whine that they were folded the wrong way.
I'm going to call fake, mainly because a 3/3 flying with a life gain ability for only 3 seems like a little unbelievable. Especially the synergy it would have with the previously mentioned angel of thune. In fact without the synergy, it still would be very strong to say the least. Plus don't forget that it's Bestow would automatically count as 3 as it has 3 white mana symbols in it's cost.

The color doesn't matter and you completely missed the point. Colorless cards don't magically buck the numbering convention. They follow it and it's still a card at nine that starts with P.
Again, missing the point. "G" is before "H" and so it is close and "H" being at nine is not out of the question. My point is that it is asinine to think this card is fake because of the collectors number that is plausible.
Dear god people. It is hilarious the "points" being brought up and how inaccurate they are.

It's a rare and it works with a card from the core set, so how does that make it unbelievable? Seriously!? Also, Devotion is the mechanic you're looking for.
given how clean and clear the print looks (bad scan aside) im calling real. ive never seen a fake that didnt have some kind of misspelling, wrong grammar, or text out of place.
this very well could be a rare (it feels rare to me)
the whole 9/249 thing isnt that far fetched, just unlikely.
i think the picture is probably a lot better when its not being scanned oddly.
im 100% calling real. ill actually be surprised if its not.

i think its actually not too bad. considering it pretty much has to be played in a mono white deck.
It almost looks like the mana symbols in the devotion reminder text are "naked" like the Phyrexian one on Rage Extractor, in that they don't have a circle around them.
Only 8 white cards for A-F which is fairly reasonable depending on the naming scheme for this set.
If C's are fairly rare because kappa is mostly rendered as k, it's entirely possible. That would leave chi for ch or kh though, though.
But it's 4chan. Of course it's fake.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
I like how they conveniently cut off the Enchant Creature frame because they obviously couldn't make it look right (hint: it goes further down the card frame).
I'm not.
It is a foil.
The pax cards are oversized cards that they intend people to virally spread through social media.
A foil would photograph poorly, as evidenced by the image.

just saying. foil should not confirm as real at all
and the plains icon in the reminder text looks terrible, probably from a photoshop mtg symbols font

And as for Glimmerpoint Stag, that's a "G" not an "H". So, looking at the set, "H" would fit in between Glint Hawk(#10) and Indomitable Archangel(#11) which would make it ~#11.
I think #9 could be a reasonable spot for a card starting with "H," but I still think this card is a fake.

Fake.

I'm guessing the col# on Gift proves this one fake? I don't know that much about the #crunch, but it looks that way to me.
Yep, it certainly seems that way.
