Awesome! (except I'm not a judge and no one at my local is going to Rome). Cool that they're doing the allied fetches. Glad they did the best one first.
Woohoo, 900 posts!

Beautiful! Just now need some wishes in standard! Burning Wish would be win.
Also notice the lack of the word "exile" in Burning Wish, how strange.
Wish spells can't hit Exiled cards. If the word "Exile" was used on them they wouldn't be able to hit the sideboard, since that actually is still outside the game.

...No, it says "Remove Burning Wish from the game" and not "Exile Burning Wish." Even the Oracle text has updated it.

Polluted Delta is the 5th one they've done this year. It started with Bloodstained Mire WAY back at the beginning of 2009.

I was driven from this once-great site by abusive mods and admins, who create rules out of thin air to punish people for breaking them (meaning the rule does not exist under forum rules) and selectively enforce the rules that are written on the forum rules. I am currently lurking while deleting 6 years and 2 months of posting history. I will return when ExpiredRascals, Teia Rabishu and Blinking Spirit are no longer in power.

Oops. FAIL.
What order did they go in? I guess they saved the best for last, then.

Arrest this man he talks in math
The Tea Party is the working class fighting against the man fighting for the working class.
It's called EDH kids, there is no such thing as commander.
They design, commission art for, and print a full year's batch of Judge Promos upfront, before the start of the year, presumably since it's cheaper to print 10 cards in a single batch than to do each one separately. That's why they all have the pre-M10 templating. Next year's batch will be updated to current wordings.
This burning wish, and the previous cunning wish, make me wish that they didn't stupidly neuter the wishes with the M10 rules changes. These are two of the most beautiful cards in the world, and they're effectively useless.

Really? They're an integral part of Storm in Legacy and Vintage - I think that's far from useless.

Limited enthusiast, Legacy miser, and begrudging Commander.
Wow. That Polluted Delta is beautiful! Wish I had the money to drop on at least one of the fetch promos
Maybe they'll make it into FNM promo-dom some time?

I like that it doesn't say exile anywhere on the burning wish text cause that's old school yah. Disappointed with the art though. I want me some foil polluted delta's but those will cost a lot presumably.

"Yawgmoth," Freyalise whispered as she set the bomb, "now you will pay for your treachery."
Notice that the Polluted Delta also says "put it into play" instead of "put it onto the Battlefield" like the enemy fetches in Zendikar. Personally, I like the old wordings and hope that the Judge foils continue to have the original wording of the cards.

It also would have looked a bit bad for the judge promo fetchlands to have different wordings depending on when they were printed. They look better all having the same wording.

The other four DCI Onslaught fetches have already been released. Flooded Strand was the one before this one.
I would imagine that all ten 2009 judge cards were printed at the same time, long before M10 was released.

I think that's right. I'll be corrected if not.
That is really weird and inconsistent.
I do like the artwork.

Quotes in blog.
They've done other ones already.
