The best time I had with planechase was with the Glimmervoid Basin out or whatever it was when I was using my RU fork/ twincast themed deck. SOOOO many spell copies flying around.
Then Storm kicked in and we haven't played planechase since.

Legendary Creature – Human Designer (MR)
Brian Tinsman, Set Designer can only be cast during the third set of a block.
When Brian Tinsman, Set Designer enters the battlefield, ignore all flavor and mechanics of the first two sets in the block. "Ok so what do we have here... gothic horror? Scrap it. Expand the Devine Vs. Demonic duel deck to 244 cards and print it!"

To be honest, I had forgotten all about the new planes. I was so excited for the twenty-one new cards and the awesome reprints that may be in Planechase2, that they completely slipped my mind! I love playing Elder Dragon Planechase, and it is the main reason I'll buy the planes when they come out.
I really hope they dont forget Esper & Jund. And why are they pointing out that theres a plane card for Shandalar? Eloren Wilds says hi.
I agree about wanting an Esper and a Jund plane card.
And I too noticed the emphasis on Shandalar back when this was announced, and I was aware Eloren Wilds existed already. Perhaps they intend to eturn to Shandalar soon... I doubt it, but I also now know that they plan five to seven years in advance.
I'd like to see some previews, period. They're hoping for a commitment in the ballpark of 80 dollars for people who want the planes and legends. If I were gonna spend anywhere near that, I'd want to know wtf was in it.
Well obviously they're going to be spoiled before you would be able to purchase the PCH2. The internet isn't going to keep it a secret. They just havn't decided to do spoilers yet.
They should have already started. Next week? Too late maro.
Agreed, starting the previews barely a week before release is very disappointing. I was expecting one deck per week (with its planes) for each week leading up to its release, like last time. Poor form WotC!
But doens't Maro explains the reasons why the make this "ability" or this "plane" that way after some of the spoilers starts? I mean in today's column he is explaining Soulbond and he explained Miracle and why Undying was kept on Avacyn after we all saw at least one miracle card and that Undying returned on AVC, or am I wrong?
I think at least we should see a few plains and maybe a Legend during this week....
These new Ninjas better knock my socks off or I'm gonna be super disappoint.
I for one am quite happy with the new UB Ninja Legend
I really happy he isn't UBG, as I didn't want Wizards to try and dilute the Tribal feel that Ninjas have in U and B.
Druidiana
I would have prefered something less expensive. Ninjas are never that big, just tricky. I just hope its going to have a body matching.
If the other threads info turns out to be true its a 7/5.But the UUBB in the casting cost and ninjitsu cost make it highly unplayable even in a blue/black deck.
So a late game finisher with a combat damage ability that hardly matters by then plus your hitting them for almost half opponents life total.....yeah they made it for Commander.Yay ??? Look i get people like commander i haven't played it so i cant knock it.But was it to much to ask to have a regular casual ninja legend?

I was also hoping the Legendary Ninja was not so mana intensive - I hope it doesnt turn out to be a creature that is unable to fit into both Constructed and Commander format - all the hype over it and it only ends up on the kitchen table or casual format would be a waste.

Odds are, it wont see constructed play. It is to expensive for most eternal formats, for it's effect. Plus, the majority of them probably won't be constructed playable, only a handfull were in commander.

agreed. With the screwy mana cost its sad to say, but probably wont even see much commander play. Thats my main format and I'm not even that stoked on it, nor are anyone in my league

That's why it is pretty disappointing, we already know Ninjutsu and Commander format was never going to work properly, and this just more or less confirm it is not suitable for constructed either.

Ninjutsu and commander work together just fine, jut not as commanders. Anyways, why would you want them to know that you could sneak in a boss creature if they opt to block?

Maybe thats because you counted copied spells.Storm only gets copies from spells you actually casted,not from copies put on the stack by an ability.
