Unfortunately every try hard from Sacramento to Shanghai preaches from the top of their 27 lands + Mana Reflection that Tooth and Nail and Time Stretch are fine to play in the same turn but Armageddon is unfair.

Yea the Simic leader seems very good. On curve after Thragtusk. It's a green sorcery version of revelation (getting a fatass instead of life). I don't think it's nearly as good as Rev, but still plenty strong.
The extort 2 drop seems reasonable as well.

I fear I won't have much time to play Magic these days.
I get to watch worlds develop around me.
I get to watch great leaders, terrible oppressors, and trend setters rise and fall.
Limited, Standard, Modern, everything is a different playing field I feel I can observe, but will not actually touch.
I look forward to the stories I will hear.
And more so to the ones I will watch unfold first hand.
Isn't the unknown exciting?

The bear with extort is going to be a lot better than you people think it is. Granted, it's not flashy. But it's strictly superior to Glory Seeker. Not a bad thing.
Zegana is quite awesome and will quite possibly see play as an EDH commander.

Also, I think a 2-drop extort does more than you think, especially when it's the Limited Information column.

Extort Bear is actually pretty cool. Been waiting for one myself - expecting a 0/2 or something for 1 as well myself.
Frankly, I like the bear more than Zegana - she'll be nice when you've got a field but sucks for recovery - sucks hard.
Re: People misusing the term Vanilla to describe a flying, unleash (sometimes trample) critter.
It's from the column dealing with Limited, and oh what a good Limited card it is...
I'll take it anyway.
the card draw makes plenty of sense,
but why would she become an utterly huge creature?
She's a Merfolk Wizard, neither types known for large bodies

This. I can really see it in some Lists with Resto Angel and Thragtusk abuse
