Really enjoying the tap-untap themes, and all the Clue tokens here. The Human Soldier and her shoulder Spirit are a cute touch and great use of partner with. If only Timin was actually a smaller creature...
oh there’s another highlight with Oyobi, Who Split the Heavens this is the first time ever we’re gonna get oyobi's 3/3's as a token card so this will finally pop up on tabletop
I am very pleased with the tokens and Spiritcraft. I really hope we receive a token for Tatsumasa's Dragon Spirit someday soon.
I really wish the previewers would highlight art changes especially but also any rewording on cards. So many opportunities to fix mistakes (here's looking at you weird al I mean cordial vampire ) in these products - sometimes that is as much of a draw as the new cards.
Much prefer this to the vamps deck. Spirits are one of my favorite tribes, although it'll be hard to move beyond Brago Blink shenanigans to something else.
Dovin, Architect of Law probably would've been the more useful and thematic planeswalker, even though 6 mana for that is RIDICULOUS. OG Tamiyo would have been an even better choice, but there's no way they'd stick her in there.
The deck cries out for cost reduction elements since there are so many high MV cards in it.
I really don't know why they don't reprint Swords in a standard set. It would solve a lot of problems when it comes to problematic creatures.

Right now, we already have a problem where creatures aren’t judged to be good enough unless they have haste, flash (which is basically haste), hexproof (which is super rare), or a strong ability that works the turn it comes out because removal always costs less than what it’s destroying and trading a creature that nets you no benefit for 5 mana with a 2-mana removal spell means you were just hosed.
“Dies to removal” is still a very real thing and printing more efficient removal would only make that problem worse.

Its all the New cards for the spirit deck and OMG my spirit deck is getting a Godzilla sized buff in Blue colors
commanders and muticolor
(By the way arcanist May have a downside with spirit count but what he didn’t see it goes for anybody's graveyard.)
Decklist is here.
EDIT: The deck is a bit low on valuable playables. Look to the Azorius Spirits Pioneer Challenger Deck for "expensive" upgrades.

this card got a severe spike when Teysa Karlov got revealed in “ravnica allegiance” also from death and taxes legacy

Are you excited Oyobi is finally getting a token card? tokens didn’t exist during the original kamigawa
but What I’m most interested in is will Oyobi and sire of the storm be reworded ability to “spiritcraft”

Spirits are one of my favourite tribes, so I might be getting this.
the port town art is online promo art and AFR commander
THAT SWORDS ART!!!
and the captain I don't know I prefer the older art for some reason.

2. I like to pretend AFR never existed. So I didn't know this since I ignored that product.
