Eh you're right, I completely forgot they don't re-use those art pieces in cards. Same thing with the amazing Fate Reforged art (Sarkhan on fire with Ugin in the background). Oh Well I just wanted to ask because Black/Red are my favorite colors and that is some beautiful art. Could have made a great Promo card =/
New to prerealease stuff, when should we learn what are in the prerelease clan box?
Wizards of the Coast won't release these as a known quantity. They want you to play by choosing your favorite clan/color/faction instead of by which rare is best or has the best numbers on paper. I usually don't have the full list until after the prerelease (not good for pre-planning, but good for collectors). I will post the lists as soon as I see them, though.
You can make the safe assumption that the Elder Dragons will be possible in their clan boxes as well as rares that have the clan keyword. I would also guess that the dual-colored rare dragons will go in their clan's pool as well. There will be some odd mono-colored choices here and there as well to pad certain clans if the past is any indication.

It always seems that way to me - they have this amazing art on the boxes and I wish they'd go onto promo cards! The Sorin from a few years ago or Lili on her Innistrad throne spring to mind.
Funny thing is, I bet that Dragonlord's Servant will be far more expensive than the foe-Razer Regent...
Possibly. It does seem to be more useful.
One thing to remember is that there will be about 20 rares per prerelease pool (of 64), so about 1 per 3 humans (if reported numbers from LGSes are accurate). That makes it about 10 times more common than any particular prerelease card. I'm not expecting any of these cards to command ridiculous prices.

Reprints the one card that people point to when saying that art objectifies women.
Well done Wizards.
Liliana does not objectify women in any way at all. We have gotten to a point in our society that every single picture of a women must be objectifying a women in some negative way......blah blah blah.. That is not the case. (((Sarcasm)))Picture of a girl drinking a milk shake, must be sex related and putting women down, picture of girl sitting on a beach, picture of a girl driving a car, picture of a girl on the moon at a new space station.)))
You have a picture of an attractive strong power women who girls dress up as for anime conventions. What more do you want? The picture is fine, happy to see a reprint. Sick of of seeing people claim that everything in existence must be putting women down. Then all I have to do is replace the word "women" with anything else to get the same mentality; fish, cats, arabs, blacks, jews, men, environment, whites, chinese, old people, etc. It doesn't matter what word I put in. Stop sucking life out of everything man. That artwork of her is awesome. Stop putting stuff down man. Just stop. If the picture was really as negative as you claim she would totally nude, in a kitchen, making sandwiches and giving blow jobs. Her abilities would be horrible as well. +1 do nothing -2 do nothing -6 do nothing. Instead liliana of the veil is an amazing planeswalker comparable to jace, the mind sculpter with great art to appreciate.
My suggestion listen to some comedy radio for a while, pandora is free, youtube is free there is something out there for you. ***** go make fun of somebody. The whole world is so serious and campaigning for some cause, or someones rights, everything is a hate crime, racist, sexist. blah blah blah.
"O no mcdonalds must be slandering a hate crime against skinny people every time they make a big mac." hahaha jeeze You're just someone perpetuating another groups negative perspective that they've made you believe is correct. Look at the picture for a hour and tell me what's wrong with it? I don't see anything.
I have heard vague rumors of a moustache-dispensing vending machine in a distant laundromat, across the street from a tattoo parlor. However, this information is shaky, and time is of the essence.
Considering we are now out of Tarkir territory and getting into Origins, the only chance that that art will see print on a card is if it is featured in a future box set such as a Duel Deck or a Commander deck. It is a shame because Sunscorch would have been a much better Dragonfury prize than Foe-Razer Regent.

Have wizard's promos ever prognosticated good performance for a card in the upcoming meta? Man, OoO is a funky choice. Did the FFL make a bad call or something?

Sometimes a card will pick up after having been an FNM promo, but a lot of times it's just a swing and a miss.

So there are only four possible promos for that Prerelease game? Just the Foe-Razer regent, the two uncommons and Evolving Wilds?

That is what WOTC has said several times, most recently in Gavin's article and in a YouTube video I saw last night.
Dragon Fodder is a common, BTW.

Damnation, Dualcaster Mage, Feldon of the Third Path, Ravages of War, Wasteland.
Interesting that they don't reveal numbers 1-3.

You asked for Modern staples, you get Modern staples. July FNM promo is PATH TO EXILE!

Nice promo!
Anyone figure out where this alternate art Sunscorch Regent is going to show up?
