As always, here comes the set's obligatory token dump. We have 11 tokens and 1 emblem for the main set, and 1 extra token from Set Booster exclusives. All these will show up in Draft and Set Boosters. In Collector Boosters, each double-sided token will have the Powerstone token on one side, and any of the rest on the other. People who care about the flavor will note the Construct and Soldier tokens each have an art representing Urza's machines and Mishra's machines.
I will be looking to sell/trade any Transformers garbage that shows up in my packs including those tokens.
I like all the BRO tokens except the Bear one. I'm sure that is the token I will get in every other pack.

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.
Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.”
Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Martin Luther King Jr.: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
They continue with the set's "way too busy" art style.
Except on the Powerstone. That one is kinda underwhelming though. Making a stone appear interesting might be a challenge, but this entirely lacks a certain energy the Powerstones in Visions of Phyrexia and Great Desert Prospector. I wish we would have gotten a more unrefined look of a freshly mined Powerstone since it makes for a more interesting art, or maybe a strong contrast of an undamaged Powerstone in a wreck of a fallen construct. It's not bad art, but how often do we get a chance for this specific kind of token?
...
Except... we did! *Checks DMU art* Wow! I like that one a lot.
There is a real problem where exchanging the art between Construct, Soldier and Golem doesn't seem to e something you'd easily notice.
Today I think, I like the Elemental most. The Kev Walker Soldier makes for best artifact token of the land.
Forest Dryad is just a good name for a land creature token. Hope we get Mountain Goat next.

Planar Chaos was not a mistake neither was it random. You might want to look at it again.
[thread=239793][Game] Level Up - Creature[/thread]
Anyone else find it weird that we didn't get more than 1 Powerstone token when it is such a huge part of the set? Even more strange is we do get 2 different Soldier tokens. I would have expected 3 different Powerstone arts honestly.
The powerstone token is ugly. It looks like a portal, not like a powerstone. The other tokens are mostly cool

How i feel about competitive players and casual players in EDH: The competitive are german tourists, the casual are italian tourists, both in a italian beach. The italians asking themselves "why are the germans here?" make a legitimate question, the answer is because the beach is beautiful, no matter the country you came from. The italians wanting to ban the germans are dumb, because if the germans pay for their stay and follow the rules like everyone else, they have the right to be in the beach. Hovewer, if the germans started to ask themselves "why are the italians here?"... they would be dumb as hell.

Also in the Set Boosters are Soundwave, Superior Captain's minion tokens.

I'll take all of them!

I just wish it had more of the charm of Fade from History's artwork.

Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."

Really agree. So cartoonish.
I do like the Dryad & the (Yotian) Soldier tokens. Giancola & Walker are two of MtG's tippity-top-shelf best artists too, so unsurprising.
That Thopter is pretty cool too.
