Enchant Mountain
2: Enchanted Mountain becomes a 6/1 creature until end of turn. It's still a land.
Whenever enchanted Mountain is put into a graveyard from play, return ~noname~ to your hand.
Yeah its sick.
Budoka Pupil was named in the Magazine. There were a few other cards, but I had no time. Seems like my country (i wun say where i live in case i get lynched) has Inquest Mags on the shelves really early as compared to other countries.
As usual, you may choose not to believe me. Whatever. No point in it anyways, since there isn't a point in "rumouring" anyways. But heres the info, whether you like it or not.

I find the enchant mountain unbelievable, but whatever. Truth or otherwise!=my problem.
All the cards seem believable enough save for the Patron of the Kistune.
First, the Fox Offering mechanic seems to me like an inferior version of Ninjitsu. Sure you can drop the fox anytime you could play an instant, but you must sac a creature and pay the difference in mana cost. Meh!
I also have a flavor issue with the card. This seems like a green/black ability. This doesn't feel "white," and it sure as heck doesn't feel like something the Kitsune would do. They are tricksters, but not at the expense of kin. Ninjitsu is closer to the pranks a Kitsune would pull.
And what is with calling it "Fox Offering?" That limits the mechanic to just the Kitsune. Calling it simply "Offering" is less wordy and opens up the design space to incorporate other races with the ability.
Now with that said watch these turn out to be real, leaving me with my foot in my mouth.
Arkham, the 1920's. Investigators battle horrors from beyond time and space, risking life and sanity while conspiracies of cultists and malign servitors seek gateways for their outer gods to return...

The thread starter (@MTGNEWS) said that he has "got those cards on Fifth Dawn, and now " he " have some from BoK, including a new keyword.".
Very well, things going to be easy.
If he provided REAL cards in the past, we may call him "a reliable source".
Okay,lets search.

thats the new previewed card for today!
*Shrug, THAT'S ALL...
(by the way, the "enchant mountain" card more likely to appear in the next block...RAV,the land theme block, but not BoK. )
Void got a good arguement. Some of this seems iffy. Could very well be a fake, will need visual evidence or just a second source to move these close to real.
The wording for the Offering mechanic seems a little off. Shouldn't it be Offering - Fox?
The wording is fine, compare it to "Affinity for Artifacts". The dash isn't needed. The cards are all believable, but somehow strangely "out of character"... A blue card that puts lands into play, a red manland enchantment, a white card that "requires" a sacrifice... I'm not convinced.

Well, this card is a part of the Patron cycle, but only this ability was mentioned. I believe it would have "Moonfolk Offering" too. This is up to speculation.
The patrons could be the guardian spirits (shugoshin) mentioned on a japanese site as one of the major mechanics of the set, along with ninja.
EDIT: We know that Patron of the Nezumi is a real card from the set; that fits in with this cycle too. I say 90% real.
I suppose it is plausible that the Fox Offering is in flavor for a Betrayer. Perhaps "Offering" is the actual mechanic, and there is a cycle or two for each major race in the set??? The ability makes more sense with Rat Offering, Snake Offering, Akki Offering and Moonfolk Offering in the mix. Still the mechanic seems to close to Ninjitsu for me.
Most of them seem reasonable to me. I personally like the offering mechanic, just seems pretty cool. But the Mountain card-thing is evil. So, for now....im in the middle.

T3 mountain, tap 2 mountain,enchanted mountain & slith attack.
(Opponent who using a control deck: GG.)
(6/1....even the wall of blossom of a nail player cant stop this big bad mountain.)
Put my foot in my mouth if those cards are confirmed as real.
I just noticed Opal-Eye has Defender. Interesting to say the least. 1WW for a wall that has Bushido and the ability to absorb a point of damage for every 1W you pump in to him. Too bad he taps to redirect damage, otherwise he might have been fairly decent.
XYL, often times fakers will use other widely known and confirmed pieces of information to help pass off the fakes as legitimate. Don't believe it based solely on the fact that it seems to mesh well with another , more reliable, piece of information.

Shouldn't the ability "T: The next time..." have the word "redirect" in it?
Good eye, I think it would have to say redirect for it to be right in magicease.
I got say that they are fake. 95%
EDIT: I spend all this time on a really long post and R_E goes and spoils my fun by confirming it... Well dang. Anyway, for archival purposes, (drumroll) MY ORIGINAL POST!!:
He says he got them from Inquest, so it should be a very simple matter to prove them one way or the other. In the mean time:

That name just doesn't feel right. It seems like it should either have "Nezumi" at the front of it or be a Legend (remembering Nezumi naming habits). It seems uncharacteristically generic for modern magic.

Unless it's part of a cycle, this should be green. In fact, this is a very interesting card from a skeptic's point of view. Basically it asks "Can fakers be clever enough to include cards that could only be part of a cycle without including the rest of the cycle as some form of reverse psychology?". The presence of this card means either:
a) This is real
b) This is the work of an extremely dumb faker
c) This is the work of an extremely clever faker
Most of the other cards are more or less believable, so that rules out "dumb faker". However, he claims to have gotten them from Inquest, which will shorten the time of doubt regarding his cards. Doesn't seem to clever. By process of elimination, these cards could very likely be real (although this is by no means conclusive evidence).
Really surprised that these are real. So we now have a ninja-esq Fox Spirit, a Fox Samurai that refuses to attack, Azusa - Lost and Found, and one mean mo-fo Mountain.
Who knows what other surprises this block holds in store for us!?!
See there. I've also got copies:
