Eagerly awaiting another spewage from Trick Jarret
EDIT: For what it is worth, I like to note that because of this spoiled booster, I'm starting to save money now for SOI instead of when spoiler season usually starts. That is, I will spend more money (saved up between now and the normal start of spoiler season) than I would have without the spoiled SOI booster.
They did it with Jace, the Mind Sculptor. He got banhammered within two weeks of the pre-release, because WotC apparently missed that a free Brainstorm every turn is broken, before releasing the set.
Actually, wasn't he banned at the release of New Phyrexia? That's definitely not within two weeks of pre-release. Also, Chandra is fine. It does what a six mana spell should do: Win the game for you.
I am pretty sure he got banned around the release of Worldwake. It was Stoneforge Mystic that got banhammered with the release of New Phyrexia (apparently she was broken with Batterskull, who'd have thunk?).
You are incorrect. Jace was in the coreblade deck when batterskull was legal.
In all seriousness, I pretty much despise Trick Jarett. He's the face to me of all that is wrong with WOTC nowadays. Small leaks like this support the community and give us something to be excited about.
I mean... I'm sure they're bummed about it, but it's just one booster. It's nowhere near as bad as the OGW leak that spoiled almost all the mythics as well as all the expeditions (in other words, the cards they would have used to generate hype)
Interesting how there are no flashback cards in this leak. One booster pack isn't enough to say for certain that there won't be flashback, but it's enough to get me wondering.

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).

Jace and Stoneforge got banned together.

The names of a few of the flip cards on the checklist strongly hints at some of them not being creatures. Specifically "Neglected Heirloom", "Autumnal Gloom" and "Skin Invasion", though those last two might just be strange elemental creatures.
If whoever has the box spoiled every card inside that would be one of the worst leaks in Magic history.
100% of the commons and uncommons and over half the rares spoiled before Wizards spoils anything themselves? They might as well just go ahead and post a C/UC/R spoiler on their own site if they can confirm a whole box went missing.
I like the transformation for cards the most. Other mechanics are also nice, from this point they did a good job. How ever, if you look on the cards, most are bad. Half are even bad for a intro-pack. If this set would be full of bulk like others nothing will change, the standard deck from boosters will still be a dream.
Of these I expect Fiery Temper to make it in Standard.
I'm actually a little nervous about the possibility of a full box leak. I mean, I like leaks when they happen... but I still enjoy seeing the official spoilers at their proper time. Getting a single pack leak seems actually really optimal. Lots of stuff to chew on, but not a total ruination of the future spoiler season.
That said, a lot of these are really exciting. Werewolves confirmed(hopefully a little more pushed?), madness returns(Chandra, Flamecaller got a lot better), and Nahiri is crazy and vengeful and that's mighty fine.
Pretty stoked. Already gonna save up for a box or two.
I have neither the skill to correctly and accurately analyze this set in the context of current and future formats after 12 hours of exposure, nor the hubris to delude myself into believing that I do.
Welp, Nahiri went guano insane since the last time we saw her. Red-White Madness+Equipment themed perhaps? And werewolf flip cards being back is neat, though I also want to see Wolfir.
I hadn't really thought about it before now but we could use a second RWPlaneswalker every bit as urgently as we need a second BRone.
That would be pretty cool.
I'd prefer it not be too equipment-themed but you're probably not wrong there.
For people saying that there's no DFC legend or whatever I'd like to point out on the Checklist card it has CH1 in the bottom left corner where the collectors number would be that certainly feels like there might be a CH2

Well, the Heirloom sounds like an artifact, which is nothing we've never seen before with Elbrus from the original Innistrad. I feel like the other two may be enchantments, however, which is interesting.

That is actually interesting looking at how the checkcards from Innistrad and Dark Acension didn´t have that

And there won't be any cards that are good against her printed this go around? I already see one in this leak...,

Reality is only what man allows it to be. Few shape it so that many may accept it.
You are incorrect. Jace was in the coreblade deck when batterskull was legal.
Should read "discard it into exile", I think.
That is, mechanically, how Madness currently works, so it's the most sensible wording I think.

Dark Withering's nonblack clause seems to make it an unlikely candidate these days.
Now, what they really have to reprint is Grave Scrabbler. We need more futureshifts, and this one fits perfectly!

We will get equipment and Nahiri is "guaranteed" to do something with equipment in some form.
