Pretty tokens. Makes me sad, though, that they stapled Enchantment onto everything. The perfectionist in me makes me want to use these only when strctly applicable.
So the other tokens are probably:
- White Bird (probably 1/1 flying)
- Some kind of artifact token (I'm guessing it will be created by some card referencing King Midas. Turns creatures into golden statues or something.)
Excellent tokens! Kraken is baller, and as others have said, high five for zombie babies. "So destined I am to walk among the dark, a child in keeping secrets from..."

The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.
"Ohhhh yeeaaaaaaaaaa!" bursting outta a furnace and isn't fat, but I see what ur sayin.
No one probably cares, but kiora's emblem looks better than most id say.
Wont mind getting a couple either because having multiples from her at once is SWEEEEEET

I guess I just don't care for the art direction in this block because none of these tokens are doing it for me. This thread usually gets me excited, but the THS and now BNG tokens are boring.
Not sure about the Kraken yet. It looks more like a giant centipede to me for some reason. I feel like I'll end up loving it but at first glance it's not what I expected.
I'm not going to lie, I was sort of hoping that the zombies would be a bit younger looking and holding a teddy bear or a doll or something to really up the creepy factor, but those are good looking.

Hmm, Gold was a heavy part in one guy's GDS2 block. Can't remember who it was but I know it wasn't the winner's, who was Ethan and his wonderful dino land block.

What? They are all good. That Centaur token especially.

Thoughts on proxies:
Wish the Kraken art would've been more epic, though. I don't know, it looks more "oh hey it's a Kraken" than "ZOMG KRAKEN!!!!1" to me.

Take a mechanic from the pre-mirrodin era, and a mechanic after the mirrodin era, and create a card that flavorfully melds both mechanics.

It sounds like it has the potential to be completely bonkers, though, so pretty stoked to see what card makes this.
Definitely. I agree the gold token is pretty clearly a King Midas reference.

Many thanks to DNC at Heroes of the Plane Studios
And ALL the nyxborn tokens look SOO sick!!
Thanks to Rivenor for the signature and XenoNinja for the Avi!

I especially like how the enlarge frame around the top of the token cards allows even more of the star field to show. These look great!
