There was a thread for these, but it was deleted, presumably for the protection of the rumormonger.

Reposted from spoiler. Also, thread title should probably be updated with the other card names. Thanks.
Man, Selective Memory is so much worse than Mana Severence.... not sure why this has to cost 4. Does Eye of Ugin confirm that Eldrazi will be an artifact subtype? I find it funny how this can't cast Eldrazi Monument.

no it would confirm that colorless cards are eldrazi (like esper has colored artifacts).
Perhaps Selective Memory could be used as a tool to rid yourself of dead cards? Like pulling out all your Flashfreezes vs Vamps, sorta like a pre-game2 sideboard.
The Archon seems, to me at least, to be the rare on the front of the U/W intro pack. My reasoning is that it would be complemented perfectly by a deck full of flyers, which the deck is, the picture looks like some kind of Blazing Archon-esque creature (not really sure what an archon IS for sure though), and the bit of letters shown seem like they could be CHO as in ar-CHO-n. But then again, it's just speculation. It makes sense though, and while not the bombiest rare for an intro pack, would certainly be fun in multiples for some casual Flying deck. Just my two cents worth of observations.
While it's somewhat irritating the first thread was deleted, again, I'm pleased overall about these latest spoils. These newest admissions actually makes my overall interest in World Wake go up.
Selective Memory + Treasure Hunt could lead to some sort of silver bullet deck. Don't think that standard has enough silver bullets to support that though.
That is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. It effectively produces double mana for a single creatures type--without tapping. We don't know anything about this type, however.
Archon of redepemtion has the same cost as baneslayer angel and isn't as good, so he won't see competitive play.
Selective memory seems like it could have some combo applications at first glance, but the four mana sorcery, only nonland cards, and shuffling of library really hose it.
Seer's sundial is at least somewhat mana-efficient card draw for casual.
Seer's Sundial is going to do crazy thing for control decks that run fetchlands... end of opponents turn pop a fetch or two = draw a card or two... nice.
OP, you sure that Archon of Redemption is a Mythic? Unless there is another Archon in this set, I'm pretty sure that's the UW intro pack foil, and last I heard they don't put Mythics in intro packs (on purpose, what you get in your booster's your own business).
If a thread is deleted, do not repost it. The thread was deleted for a reason. And I dont see how anyone was going to actually hurt the person who first posted it.
If I read correctly, there is only ONE Archon in the set, and it IS in the white Precon. So it's almost assuredly a rare. This would be out of place anyway, seeing as the other Mythics in this set are VERY tasteful and somewhat original.
BTW, that land is GARBAGE. I hate to be so blunt, but it's true. Unless the Eldrazi are uber-powerful AND cheap CMC, there is no reason that it should cost 7 mana. Flavorful, kinda. Cool, not so much.
The other two are meh.
Then again, not every rare in this set can be flavorful and cool.
I collect: Vedalken Heretic, Lorescale Coatl, Reaper King, Worldslayer, Woodwraith Corrupter, Lorthos, the Tidemaker. Soon to collect Conquering Manticore.
I demanded a Manticore, and Wizards delivered. I now demand a Chimaera. The REAL one, not, Chimeric items. I also demand a new Gorgon. And more Manticores please.
That Archon doesn't feel Mythic, especially compared to the awesome design we've seen so far on WWK Mythics.
It isn't. At least, looking at the Worldwake Spoiler Page, it is rare.
I guess a janky monowhite flyers can be built out of this concept. Throw in some Kor Aeronauts, Skyfishers, Emeria Angel, Guardian Seraph, this, maybe a BSA or 2, PtEs, O-rings, Brave the Elements...
These seem strange particularly eye of ugin, wasn't the one of the things about the block that the eldrazi would appear in the third set the distinct Rise of the Eldrazi set.
Eye of Ugin- Impossible to rate without knowledge of the eldrazi. Also really weird to have a land which makes no mana, wizards doesn't do that often. The last one was Dark Depths and that was in a set which was a throwback to when wizards still printed cars like that.
Archon of Redemption- it's 3/4 for 3WW with flying which by itself gains you 3 life and can potentially gain you a heap more. That said there's way too much competition in standard with good white flyers for this to make much of an impact(particularly baneslayer).
Selective Memory- it's a reverse Mana Severence for twice the mana. Could be useful in filtering away unnecessary spells to leave only lands for landfall and the best spells, that said it's one of the weakest rares yet.
Seer's Sundial- this is a nice source of late game advantage, it's a bit expensive to play but the ability to turn every land into a card for only 2 mana is solid. Limited good(but only in a slower style deck), constructed might be a nice draw engine for colors which lack card draw.
Hate to be a naysayer, but do we have conformation that these cards are, indeed, real? Eye of Urgin just doesnt seem like it belongs in this set, because of the reasons stated by the other posters. The others seem reasonable enough... but the eye makes me iffy about all of them.

so if i am that player do i get to sleep with his girlfriend ?
Yeah I agree the Eye was a real "Huh?!?" card for me... I mean I guess if Eldrazi are a creature type it can help play Changelings or whatever but Changelings aren't played in the formats that they are legal in so it seems useless at this point in the set. If it is real and there are no Eldrazi cards in this set people are going to be PISSED OFF! I know I will be.... another itteration of Steamflogger Boss would be enough for people to outright quit!!!

Yes. It seems that Archons are the white counterpart to Specters, not mechanically but artistically.

I don't know what that combo is, but it's brutal. Seismic Assault mayhaps? The aforementioned Mirror?
Oh, and I have a very strong feeling the eye is good.
