Text font looks fake. And I don't think that the first mythic rare and "peaceful departure "would be printed without flavor text. There's just too much space.
What in gods name is up with this set? Did RnD just sit down and say "lol let's pack as many over-the-top cards as we possibly can into this one because the world ends this year anyway!"
And that is the source for these cards... it feels fake there too. Something is fishy here... as just mentioned, the "Mythic," which doesn't feel very Mythic-like. Another thing, there is no flavor text on any of the cards, none, null, zero, zilch!
One of the art is from the Premium Deck: Graveborn, and the rest of the art is art that was already released. Lastly, no card numbers.
Fake IMO.

Additionally, the art for the second card is for a demon cult leader according to Beyer's article. That card will definitely not be printed as seen above as it makes zero flavor sense
Maybe the text and artwork were spoiled to someone, i.e. shown the art and then told what it does and someones has tried to make a (average) mock-up of them?
This is possible, I'll admit. I really want some of these to be real.
If Scars block and M12 were this underpowered I'd be ecstatic about this set since that means greater variety in deck building...but they aren't. If 99% of Innistrad is going to be this mediocre it's just going to get swept under the rug by the good cards that are still legal.
Funny observation: Mirrodin - Kamigawa - Ravinica happened in that order the first time around. Innistrad, with the stoppage of the power creep and flip cards being introduced, is as close as it gets to Kamigawa. At least the cards have better names this time around.
1: Doesn't the artwork of Blind Priest, strangely a white creature, depict a non-white demon worshipper (as revealed by Wizards)?
2: Curses are enchant players. (Aye?)
3: The wording is inconsistent, unless that's what designers are going for.
That should be adequate evidence to disprove the verity of these cards. If that's not enough, then there's ever the text, alignment, collector number (n cards out of 10), etc.
Perhaps these are mock-ups so as to pretty things up, sure but, if these are genuine cards, they're not so great.
The art for "Blind Priest" was specifically associated with the Skirsdag in the Introduction to the Planeswalker's Guide to Innistrad. So that's all I need to know to call fake.
These very well COULD be mockups, which has happened before, but the dealbreaker for me is the art from the Graveborn Premium Deck being used. That just seems odd. Though, have we seen the art from the curse before?

This is about as real as a 3 dollar bill.
Fake IMO.

Do your homework fakey.

Also, to help future fakes, a dagger is not a spike.

Avacyn's Shrine cannot be a card name. Unless wizards screwed up the card numbering again, but that seems less likely than these being fake.
