Do not make any other threads for previews from the mothership tonight. We will update this thread as we go.
No more posts about yugioh, because 90% of people who make the comment dont understand yugioh or have never played, and dont realize it can infact be a completely different card game. This is irrelevant to this thread as it is about the two spoiled cards.

Not exactly what I expected for a counterspell... but pretty cool. (Edit: Just re-read it... I like it a lot more now, though not the best counterspell out there by a longshot).
The other card I'd never use, but an uncounterable 4/4 that you can cheat into play is kind of nice. Discard hate is cool as far as I'm concerned.
Largely unexciting. The loxodon is fairly beefy but he's still just a donk that dies to basically everything, and while I do appreciate how he squares up against liliana, most black decks will have the requisite mutilates or murders to deal with it.
Syncopate is pretty sweet I guess? I dunno, it will be played but it feels kind of lackluster.

I can't believe anyone is excited about this card. It is absolutely unplayable. I wouldn't even play her in LIMITED. Easily the worst walker printed since the green elf one. Absolutely terrible.

Cool cards though.

The elephant is just a 4/4 for 3 once it's on the battlefield. It gets on the Battlefield easily though.

I'm glad to see Syncopate back.
The Loxodon is pretty bonkers against control and discard. Me likey.
EDIT: Wait a minute, didn't notice the female anatomy. Now I don't know what to think.

The Loxodon is well, resilient till you play it. Just fine i guess. 3 for 4/4 is good.

When it escaped, the experimenters hesitated. It would cause untold havoc, yet they wished to see it in action.
Agreed. Nice creature and all but life gain as an enter the battlefield would have been sweet.
