MTG Salvation

We’re getting a commander set plus 9 commander 2020 decks

So who and what could we see in this set.

And reprints ofcoarse

Obligatory Sol Ring prediction... though I predict that it will be a rare with cool art.


after all, this set is most likely intended for some sort of limited format and getting 2-4 sol rings in a single deck would kind of cause some problems.

Ashnod, please!!!

Phyrexians we need more phyrexians

Belbe and gix are the biggest also a few other phyrexian who have no sightings on a card at all heck maybe a post phyrexians version of yawgmoth (I can dream)

I knd of hope they replace the usual sol ring reprint with arcane signets. Unless its a mono color deck, then the sol ring would make sense

We SUPER need Gix. I'd be happy with a Belbe too.

My guess for the second spoiled art was a new Latulla, Keldon Overseer (SUPER deep cut, right?!) but the video explains that it is a planeswalker. My next guess was Jeska, and after looking up the art of the pre-planeswalker version I am 100% sure it is her.

Hmmm... as far as random reprints I'm anticipating.

The legendary creatures I'm still waiting for:

Never had a card -
- 4th Sister of the Innistrad Archangels
- Asha, the ruler of Bant
- Atraxa before becoming Atraxa
- ... A 5 color identity angel so I can use Maelstrom Archangel in an angel tribal deck...

Had a card, but really need a new version -
- Gabriel Angelfire
- Selenia, Dark Angel
- Radiant, Archangel

Really hoping we will get at least 1 of those.

Oh by the way the second picture of commander green

I think o figured it out from kamigawa but not created on kamigawa I think the birth set is legions

I think it’s seedborn muse

It’s a spirit those pods are seeds probably and the birth set not kamigawa

Hope they reprint the battlebond duals and complete the cycle.

Knowing wizards I know it's most definetly not gonna happen, but if they really want Commander to be inclusive they should release the box at normal price. Imagine how many boxes would be bought. But since Wizards know we're all gonna buy it anyway, premium price it is =/

Ashnod, please!!!

This and Tormod.

What I'd like to see are creatures with legendary names but weren't listed as legends due to their early entry in the game. So things like Aladdin, Abu Jafar, Ali Baba, and the like. I'd really like to see a Niall Silvain that's actually a legend and not just an ouphe with a superiority complex

My wishlist is:

• Oliver Farrel
• Tourach
• Jhurana Rure (been saying this a lot lately!)
• References to oldwalkers (Greensleeves, Kristina of the Woods et al)
• Drafna
• Daria
• Hurkyl
• Nevinyrral
• Tocasia
• Rana, Suq'Ata Market Fool

You'll notice my heavy emphasis on original characters in magic lore for those who started in its early days. Because reasons. And who wouldn't want to smash the board with a Tourach and chant his hymn at the same time? Think of the flavour folks!

Edit: Added some others.

'buster

Oh reminder some of the legends are likely 2.0 version of cards we already have

Legends

Gix
belbe
Ashnod
Croag
Yawgmoth In phyrexian form (gets the same treatment as the mono legends that are actually 5-color)
Urza In more colors and as a walker
Ugin either pre-spark or “can be your commander” treatment
4th sister innistrad
O-Karachi 2.0 but power level more on par with lore and spirit tribal (actually you know what kyodai alternative to this request couldn’t it?)
Tomad
Actually you know what as many phyrexians as possible and one of them be a 5-color legend so we can do a phyrexian focused deck

Themes
-1/-1 atleast jund
A 5-color legend(s) of theme is each most iconic card types (artifact, creature, enchantment, Land, instant/sorcery, Planeswalker)
More partner legends
Atleast 1 4-color legends of each color combo
5-color Morph legendary
Witch-maw or 5-color blink/flicker


Tribals
Angel mardu or 5-color
Atleast one of the most used tribes in edh but with perfect color combo
Eldrazi a legend that allows devoid/emerge/meld cards
Bant merfolk
Spirit tribal (mentioned earlier)
Demon
Soilder
Snake
Humans
Gods
Werewolf
Cleric
Minotaur
Fairies
Spiders
Insects (actually even better would be a legend that supports both spiders and insects at the same time)
Rogue
Robots (myr/construct/golem)
Hydra
Sphinx


And probably more to come

Oh I forgot

Leshrac would be good to get a card

Also my spirit tribal legend request from earlier I realized kyodai needs a card and that legendary is that which was taken before she became that and freed later by Toshiro Umezawa and Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker

So clearly she had to be five color since she’s literally part of O-Kagachi.

it could be also be Sisters of Flesh and Spirit for a legendary spirit tribal legend

Apart from what has already been said, the demonic leviathan planeswalker that got killed by Bolas would be neat.

I also hope for Tevesh Szat and a new Mishra card

Maybe the Sisters of Flesh and Spirit & Hidetsugu after he fused with the all Consuming Oni of Chaos (or just the oni as its own card)

That actually makes a lot of sense. It shouldn't be Oracle because that's an elf, or any creature with a human creature type or anything obviously not plant. But an elemental, plant, or spirit are all possible. The only strike against it is that seedborn has been reprinted twice somewhat recently, but it's still a cool card and very iconic for green commander.

Personally, the pessimist in me bets on Fertilid. It certainly seems more elemental than treefolk or dryad, seems too small for an Avenger of Zendikar, and looks too different to be Omnath. While The muse is a possibility, I personally fear that we are getting a fancy Fertilid... if only because that would be a very WotC move.

This is a Kamigawa creature (here's a hint: the creature was not originally from Kamigawa)

With the floaters like the spirits In kamigawa so this has to be a spirit and seedborn is a spirit they making a kamigawa version

Fingers crossed for Gix and Ashnod, also it would be nice to see PW Urza and Phyrexian Yawgmoth, this might just be the set where pretty much every major character without a card gets one, kinda what I expected Modern Horizons to be..

It's going to be a pain to wait over a year for commander legends the only product I want in 2020

I’m sure gix is a certain man it’s gonna be a pain waiting that’s for sure

And not only every major character could get a card probably the rest of the highly requested creature tribes get a perfect legend as well

I hope you are right, I have been waiting for a Gix card since forever, Commander Legends has the potential to be one of the best sets magic ever made, hopefully we get a good mono-white legend as well

Yep

One example of my tribals getting a legend

Spirit tribal could be kyodai or O-kagachi (before he lost that which was taken)

https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/188752297158/of-the-seventy-legendary-creatures-how-many

Ok new info not conclusive but

It might be somewhat a 50/50 split of 2.0 legendaries (known or have a card) and not known (unknown and don’t have a card)

More phyrexians and kamigawa legends is looking good

I think we will see a Tetsuo Umezawa 2.0

Actually he’s very very likely since his role of the mtg story is enormous he’s the first one to defeat Nicol Bolas (liliana and Gideon sacrificing himself are both second.)
