Well, Wurmcoil Engine is broken as hell.
Venser isn't broken the least bit, but because he's a mythic he'll be over $20.
I hate WotC, because I want one of him just for fun and I most likely will never get one.
EDIT: :[
I just saw the Opal and Elspeth. This is going to be the most expensive set evar.
I might just buy a box
I don't think Opal will be that much. Venser is preordering on starcity for 40 and I don't think it's that much. A guy I share collections with bought 3 Elspeths for $120 already. Me and my group are looking forward to Wurmcoil Engine... as I put it at one point...
"Turn whatever you play Wurmcoil Engine. If they kill it, whatever. You attack with it and they'll chump or take 6. Then if they have anything they'll counter attack. Then you play Momentous Fall. Draw 6, gain 6, get 2 3/3s. Block with the deathtouch guy or both if you want/can"
Just got back from Bumbershoot. Pretty sick... didn't actually hear a whole lot of music, but I heard the band I wanted to see (Rise Against). It was pretty amazing... loud. And I'm really really mad I had to leave before Weezer played because of my friend's parents... ugh.
I have a couple really bad deck ideas brewing. One of which is very dependent on the rest of the Scars set. Any hope for at least 1 artifact land? *cross fingers* Mox Opal is going to be amazing if there is some kind of artifact or white creature which has a benefit for sacrificing artifacts.
Tempered Steel seems pretty amazing.
Sort of disappointed in Steady Progress. I was hoping a card like this would be printed but I was pressing for 1U sorcery, draw a card, proliferate. Being instant is actually really bad for me (other than forcing the card to cost 3 instead of 2).
I'm gonna try to be creative with this new type 2 coming up and I hope it works out. If not, I'll be really disappointed. I want to return to the good ol days where I could make a well thought out, creative deck and do very well in FNMs. I'm just really banking on this coming to fruition.
I've got a CASUAL deck idea brewing...I wonder how viable it would be to have a deck of all lands and planeswalkers
Ooh, and I really like the dragon. For fun purposes strictly
Oh and if someone does break it it will rise even higher...
I thought Opal was crazy broken until I saw that it was Legendary. Now I really question whether anyone could ever "break" it. One extra mana isn't that game changing and your opponent's Opals will be canceling yours out. This isn't quite Jitte and this isn't quite Chrome Mox. The only thing boosting its price will be hype (and Mythic rarity).
I agree that it would be really hard to break the opal. It can definetly be good, but not broken. The only thing I can think of that would propel it to "broken" status would be if they reprinted the artifact lands...

EDH: It's like a pillow fight, except occasionally someone pulls out a chainsaw.
If you suggest a card to add to a deck, suggest one to take out as well.
Give me a break, I said casual
I think poison would be a fun deck to pilot. I might do my own homebrew control-y version, using Clone and the Gargantuan to put out tons of Ichor Rats. And the black dragon too.
'Course, we all knew that.

Seems like card advantage galore.

I followed the PT mostly out of curiosity if my investment of time reversals were going to pan out yet... Nope.

I REALLY like the worm and the new black poison dragon. Totally going to play poison.

A) get a solid amount of mana rocks to go along with it
B) Some kind of combo emerges that it plays a key role in.
The thing is auto-good in legacy and vintage. Storm will love this as an addition.

Hall Of Mirrors lets you have several, plus it helps to the artifact count.

Even if they reprinted the artifact lands, you could still only have one Opal on the field. That's just an extra mana each turn.
