What a waste of an arcana... we already knew the booster pack imaging, and they didn't even give us the spread art. All we learned is that they are re-using a mountain image from M10. Whoopie.
Well, from the pick is safe to say that Mountain is confirmed.
Jokes apart, i may pick one if it's as good as m10.

Yawgmoth, the ruler of Phyrexia, Lord of the Wastes, Father of Machines, is DEAD. He's passed on. He is no more! He has ceased to be! He is expired and gone to meet his maker! He is a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! He kicked the bucket, He has shuffled off his (apparently)mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!
I think this means Tezzert is going to be either in M11 or Scars.
Not that it's a complete shock to anyone. It is the Alara art, so maybe M11 replacing Jace?

It's highly likely he's getting the reprint nod over Jace 1.0 since Scars of Mirrodin will probably let him shine, and possibly see a new version of him printed. The 5 core 'walkers were all over the packaging for the M11 rules inserts, and featuring a planeswalker in the sample chapter who doesn't even appear in the set would be pretty weird.
We've known about the Test of Metal novel for a long time. It has nothing to do with the Core Set, just the timing works out for the excerpt to be included now. Tezzeret isn't showing up in M11, most likely.
I'll try to pick one up cause the box is handy for keeping cards. Too bad they used an arcana for this.
I would honestly rather have them come with 6 boosters, a full book, and two boxes like they used to : /
I mean, I liked getting them for the boxes before, but it's usually not worth it to me now without getting the two cuz I can get those long white boxes for like 40 cents each. They do look nice, but the fat pack set up isn't as good as it used to be imo.

If by "that" you're referring to the evil looking art on the pack with the purple glowing eyes, then no, it's not Liliana. The bigger pack images were shown yesterday and while it looks like it could be Liliana from far away, it's definitely not Liliana when you see the image clearly.
Tezz should be in M11. Then print a new one in Scars or New Phyrexia or whatever like they did with reprinting Jace in M10 and then designing a new version of him in WWK.

I saw that and commented in the thread, the fear is there though.
The lich creature with glowing eyes and a flavour reminicent of lilianas curse, no breasts are the trump card in this speculation though.

Lilianas a great planeswalker and an example of the power level they all should be at, she's just been printed in the wrong meta
Maybe I'm just hoping MBC has a chance to shine with the upcoming artifact block.
Liliana's abilities are spot on but she is slightly too high costed to really ever be relevant in standard. I would really rather see her at one less colorless and one less loyalty.
On topic this was kind of a waste of an arcana if you ask me. We basically knew all of this information and it does nothing to create more excitement. At least let us see all of the land arts.
And yes they need the books again. I miss them so much.

Buying these just for the box was never a cost effective practice.
Then-
$35 cost
6 packs: valued at $4 each $24
1 dice: $5 avg ebay value
1 book: worthless, ok maybe $5
2 boxes: 35-24-5-5=1, so $0.5 each for the boxes
Now-
$35 cost
8 packs: valued at $4 each $32
1 dice: $5 avg ebay value
1 book intro: worthless
1 boxes: 35-32-5=-2, so $-2 for the box
So we get an overall better value now, unless you don't need magic cards. If you did not read the book before the value is even better now.
I might pick one of this. I bought three straight fat boxes of Zen Block (Zen, WWK, ROE) and i have at least one mythic of each (Sorin, Comet Storm, Sarkhan2.0).
Tezz should be in M11. Then print a new one in Scars or New Phyrexia or whatever like they did with reprinting Jace in M10 and then designing a new version of him in WWK.
I completely agree, I think reprinting the original in M11 would make a lot of sense as a lead-in to an artifact-centered block and then developing his character further in that block would feel very much in line with what they've previously done with planeswalkers.

Haha, I laughed at that.
Exactly my thought as well. lol

Thanks to Spiderboy4 of High~light Studios for the awesome sig.

Looking for a card alterer that takes commissions specifically on a blank playmat. PM me please.
I do.
I'd be nice for Black to get a Good planeswalker.

That's the old Rosewater joke of "I can spoil you 5 cards of the next big set : Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain and Forest".
