Dude, look who built the deck. You're looking at the wrong win-con.
Deadeye Nav + Acidic Slime = he sneers your ****ing lands
Don't forget... He's King Griefer.
EDIT: Also keep in mind that these are my cards he'll be using. Thus, no Caverns, and no Restoration Angels (unless Mikey stays home). Oh... and probably no Bonfires too.

The Bonfires were for the transformer SB. It could morph to a RUG type deck against white weenie. I guess Ill just run Slagstorm or Whipflare in the board
So who is going to pick Azorious or Rakdos as their Guilds? Those promo's look AWFUL.
Pretty sure I'll be on Golgari, possibly Izzet/Selesnya if I'm feeling crazy.

Precinct Captain looks awesome. They just keep making white weenie better and better. The new Sphinx is laughable. Martial Law has potential in Limited and EDH as a white version of Tamiyo's +1. And Jarad's Orders...oh boy, reanimator decks are going to LOVE that.

I'm definitely picking Azorius for one event, just for the chance to get Isperia or Supreme Verdict. Probably going Golgari and Selesnya for the other two on Saturday, since Mark is only allowing people to choose each guild in one event, and then forcing a different guild in subsequent events. He's also maxing out at nine players per guild per event, to ensure that he has enough of the promo packs for all of the events. I approve of this, just because we know that almost everyone would go Izzet for every single event.
Although if I end up at one or both of the midnight events too, I guess I'll be forced into Rakdos and Izzet as well......
If I do play in a prerelease, I plan on going Rakdos. RBU are my favourite colors, so it's either Izzet/Dimir or Rakdos/Dimir, and I figure Izzet is in too high demand.
So who is going to pick Azorious or Rakdos as their Guilds? Those promo's look AWFUL.
Yeah, I'm definitely not going Rakdos. I'll probably do three and go Izzet/Golgari/Azorius in that order, and drop Az if I only do two. While the Az promo is meh, I think the detain mechanic could be a beating in Sealed.
Okay, Epic Experiment, now I've seen everything......holy mother of mercy, that card is so bonkers, R&D must have been as high on bath salts as a person can be while still being alive in order to come up with that card......
I'm pretty sure that card was designed with only Stack in mind. In almost every other format, it's going to be bad, because you'll be exiling too many good cards off the top.
Epic Experiment. The only thing I know how to say is Nut-Nut. Finally some good Izzet cards. Maybe everyone and their mother won't be playing Jund after all!

no, but they may play Jund-herria
Also, can I rant here, I need to rant here...
Who the Hell makes a land an intro pack rare and the prerelease card. We have new players who think the shocklands are meh and Wizards thinks "what best suits an intro pack rare for a guild around a collective conscience.... oh, a land"
I want to play G/W as I love Seslyna (I love Saprolings is why) but I really want to kick whoever thought that was a good idea in his face and throw him in a pit full of bronies with a sign that says "I hate MLP"
I also, will be the odd man out and say that I actually don't think that Epic Experiment is good outside of EDH.. Though I am saying this before the entire set is spoiled, so I could easily be wrong.
Epic Experiment looks like it could easily be a finisher. Imagine all the Nut spells we've seen that are low mana cost. It's uncanny that they would print card like this even though we have cards like Dreadbore. Like I said: Nut-Nut

You're not the odd man out. I don't think I was clear in my post earlier lol. I think it's going to be awful everywhere EXCEPT Stack. Even in EDH, your potential to lose important pieces of your deck (or even worse, have all the cards you cast be counters) is way too high to play that card.
Spoilers now happening all day, looks like....
The new angel and the new vampire are purely for Limited, although the vamp will probably make it into my Drana EDH deck. But OH MAN, Detention Sphere is siiiiiiiiick!!!!!!! Azorius control all day with that card. You get four o-rings for the price of one. How is this possibly a bad thing?
Pithing needle is back, pretty awesome art on it too. Interesting that they brought it back.
Yeah, apparently this is the set for re-printing cards.....makes sense, since Phyrexian Revoker is rotating.
Counterflux is absolutely ridiculous. This is almost at the level of Mindbreak Trap.
Ash Zealot is EVEN MORE Delver hate. I love it. Oh my god, watching Wizards just stick a fork into Delver's kidneys makes me laugh maniacally.
Ultimate Price.....okay, now Doom Blade and Go for the Throat rotating is not AS bad. It's still annoying, since we're in a multi-colored block. But two mana removal is two mana removal. I'll take it.
Oh man, Psychic Spiral - I am so excited to see how this plays in Szadek for EDH. It looks like a possible wincon. I want it!
You take away my control decks because you print cards that are OP and make my counters OP. Instead of ditching the first OP card, you neuter my favorite strategy.
I conform and find a new strategy. Then you print Ash Zealot and dick that strategy for me as well.
**** you, Wizards.
And Ultimate Price is ultimate ****.

So GoC, you seem a lot more positive of wizards with that last post.... I only get a small feeling of rage....
People enjoy their 31 flavors of vanilla, and its what wizards makes a lot of money off of... they are a company first and if money comes from vanilla, then you gotta keep making new vanillas....
Hopefully, Wizards realizes that holding onto an idiot ball in regards to their older customers is not good long term....
I like ultimate price. I'm a fan of printing cards that are significantly worse in their own environment, but would be ridiculous in others. Kind of like printing Terror in Mirrodin (back when Terror was considered a good card).
I have no problem with Snapcaster hate. It was a mistake and was immediately recognized as an absurd card. Just hope it works and doesn't do what Cavern of Souls did...

Amen to that, Macius. I mean, within the set, I like the things that are happening, but the problem is that they aren't isolated. They need to stop being such idiots about these things.

And if I've offended you, I'm sorry, but maybe you need to be offended. But here's my apology and one more thing...
Thats the point. You can't win without lands. Not even Delver or any other deck can for that matter.
No argument there. I Sneer at the peasants for I am King Griefer!
The Bonfires were for the transformer SB. It could morph to a RUG type deck against white weenie. I guess Ill just run Slagstorm or Whipflare in the board

Pox isnt griefer, pox makes things fair.
RUG Delver has major issues when they have no hand and thier every move is nulled
Sneak Show may have Emrakul, but even gods must realize how much Innocent Blood is on thier hands.
Maverick eventually must realize that soon enough I will be...:nike:
