I would like to see some more discussion about Arachnogenesis. Is it good enough? Somehow it feels like really bad removal which also gets you two spiders.
Has anyone had the chance to test the cards from this set? Mainly interested in Mirror Match and Rite of the Raging Storm but experience with other cards is welcome too.
So far only seen Great Oak Guardian in action and it was very good as a mini-overrun with a big body attached.
The cards are printed both in paper and online. The rarities aren't the same though. There are paper uncommons that are rare online and paper rares that are uncommon online.

I write about cube and run cube drafts on magic online.
Ugggghhh to online downshifts... but.. to each their own I say!!
As for the card itself, I can definitely agree with those saying it has the potential to be too much of an aggro hoser. You get to keep the tokens too... oh boy.
Definitely don't see why I should care if a card was printed in paper or released online. If they released an online only expansion, I'd be all over that too.
I'm seconding that request for feedback. My C15 cards just arrived in the mail, though I'm not sure how many Cube nights I'll have with Christmas season coming up.
Note: All shifts are from rare to uncommon, the prize pack list doesn't have any cards listed as commons.
Interesting... but I'm unsure what these rarities mean in this context. The shifts are only for the cube 'prize packs', and not MTGO in general, correct? We all know singleton cubes don't have rarities, so what's going on here? What's a prize pack? How many cards are in each of them?

I plan to run it too. I think there is a fair chance it falls into Timely Reinforcements territory and is just busted good against aggro.

If it ends up working out that way I'll cut it.
