MTG Salvation

Looks like we just get an Eldrazi (the other spoiler is known: Scatter to the Winds)

And more?

Even more??

Stagnation is a good name for this card. If I saw this dropped in front of me I would be forced to hold back dropping any more mana until a removal spell was found. Not bad, not amazing.

This is cool.

This is really good

Consecrated Sphinx's weird cousin.

Landfall punisher. I like it.

In b4 'this should be Uncommon'.

Seriously, this seems fairly good.

Maybe playable, cool mythic!

Don't know if it's good enough for standard, but it's interesting. And that's what counts. Many of the spoilers so far have just been existing spell + awaken, or "your allies get [keyword ability]."

A fixed Consecrated Sphinx. It will definitely see some Standard play.

Now that's very good.

Grixis Eldrazi will most certainly be a thing.

Sire of Stagnation could easily be a finisher in UB Tutelage. I can see running it as a 2 of and just using it as a blocker with it's fat 9 toughness. It's 5 power gives you a beat down plan as well.

Kind of hate that it's yet another example of Wizards thinking UB can only mill, but the card is awesome.

Ugh, yeah, looks like UB control found their win con. Just drop it with counterspell mana open, and force the opponent to stop dropping lands.

Not Consecrate Sphinx, but I love the exile effect, especially against green. It'd be agonizing for land-ramp players that after getting all that mana their key spells are gone bye bye.

Not really, it just dies to removal...what opponent will still keep playing lands after turn 5/6 with this out (assuming no ramp since it's B/U)?

that seems really good i like drawing cards did blue get gimped on a mythic ?

This is really, really good. Dies to lots of removal, but that needs to happen before they play a land or else it more than replaces itself.

Given some information about the opponents hand, possibly with some targeted hand disruption leading in, this essentially stops the opponent from playing lands as long as its on the field. If I can Transgress away their last Ruinous Path on turn 5 and play this on turn 6, I'm strangling their land base considerably. Back that up with some countermagic, and we've got a very compelling creature on the field.

This is the first decent rare in days. Hope it's not the last.

I have my doubts it will be standard playable but it's refreshing to have some interesting cards spoiled.

A good UB card... Praise Phenax!

He comes on a fat butt and provides outrageous card advantage, either through resource denial or card draw. He would have been pretty decent even without the mill.

awesome. FINALLY
