I assume this is fake (I just found this on another forum) but I'd be nice if the "detectives" at MTG Salvation could put this to rest and find all the little flaws that makes this image fake:
Card on the left says "2014" next to the copyright info.
Card on the right says "2015" next to the copyright info.

Hmmm... I guess the 2014 is strange... But I remember people calling the Rootborn Defenses leak fake because the trademark line had inconsistencies too. It would be nice to get more info on the source of this.

I'm not convinced that's not also a 5, but I am withholding judgment until some of the more scrutinizing eyes on here check it out. Seems plausible on most accounts.

Its hard to say; its upscaled a lot and I can't say for certain its not a 5. Heretical Healer has a similar look if you just upscale the tiny card image.
My biggest issue with this card is the art. I believe they would zoom up on the character (I can barely see Chandra in it) and I guess the Planeswalker should have more flame spiky hair.
what strikes me is that that art looks VERY weird for a creature, especially a legendary one. looks more like a spell art.

It's definitely a 4. Bad news then, the card seemed plausible and I liked it.

Bleh- the only thing I like about that is the ultimate.
Glad it's fake!
I wouldn't call it fake yet. From experience, it's easy to find reasons for a real card to be fake. If all we have to call it fake is the "2014", than that's just not enough, especially when the faker would need access to the actual new Chandra art to make the card.
The name on the creature side shouldn't butt up against the mana cost like that; they'd change the name or reduce the size of the type a bit to get some space in there.
The activated ability is also templated wrong; they don't use a legendary creature's full name more than once in the rules text of a card. The second mention should just say "Chandra deals 1 damage..." at the start.
Copyright is definitely 2014 on the creature side as well.
Bad fake is fake. Archive-bound this is.

Hey all... I'm retired, not dead. Check out what I'm doing these days (and beg me to come back if you want):
It is a good red card.
A good red planeswalker no less.
It's so obviously fake it's not even funny.
I think what you mean is that it's a good red planeswalker, so it's obviously fake.
That said, this thing looks fake as all get out, but I like it. Wouldn't be upset if that was close to the actual Chandra.
Also, shame on all of you. Why am I the first to mention the fact that the Origins symbol if off kilter, so it's obviously fake? The official symbol spoiled by WotSee shows a symmetrical shape, while this fake has an imbalance symbol.
Unlocked thread because we have confirmation of the plane "Kaladesh", which was heretofore unmentioned. This is still not confirmed, but just got a lot more plausible.
For reference, the staff was unable to find any mention of "Kaladesh" before today's article.
Google search within the Wizards site for "Kaladesh": Link
Google search within all sites for any mention of "Kaladesh" without the word "Roaring" and with the word "Magic": Link
Maybe the card is fake or maybe not. But the plane name appears to have been completely unknown before today.
This is just hilarious. Staff locking threads just because a few pixels are off, despite how perfect the card otherwise is. Wizards are allowed to change their templating rules.
Nobody even bothered to look at Eric's art for comparison? More paranoia please, it's funny.

I don't think it was paranoid at all. The copyright line differences are still present, and that was a big reason for closing the thread in the first place. We are just revisiting it now in light of the new info around the plane name.

People have been mocking up cards with real art for years. Just because the art is right doesn't mean it's real.

Along with many mods, I've moved shop over to MTGNexus. Come check us out!
Creature Chandra has a cool "flip me" mechanic and feels believable. Planeswalker Chandra has got to be the most boring planeswalker ever printed, if it's real. All it does is damage things? Her ultimate is more damage, and an emblem that does... more damage? It just feels too one-note, and the -2 seems horrible. I feel like it isn't real, but the creature half is a pretty legit design, so I'm not sure.

This happens almost every set. Rumor doesn't mean rumor here. Rumor means "spoon fed spoiler."
As far as the card goes, if it's real it seems like it'll be incredibly annoying to play against when it works, and easy to deal with the rest of the time.
Card on the right says "2015" next to the copyright info.

I really don't like the art though
W = 1-44
U = 45-88
B = 89-132
R = 133-176
G = 177-220
Multi, Artifact, Dual Lands = 221-251
Basic Lands = 252-272
That seems reasonable.
Glad it's fake!
