Also, Doomwake Giant, Eidolon of Blossoms, and Scuttling Doom Engine. Pretty good value. Wizards seems to know which decks are going to be strong to know the cards to increase supply of.
I have to agree with the selection of cards in this Clash Pack. Wizards knocked this one out of the park this time. Definitely beats a subpar Event Deck of the last few sets for sure.
Yeah they either a) feel like Courser is too good not to inclue, and/or b don't particularly feel like Courser should skyrocket too much.
Probably a little bit of both. Though more A than B. I think they know that putting a Courser in will sell the Clash Pack, and they ain't gonna be selling many more Born of the Gods packs at this point, so just reprint all of the high value cards in supplemental products (cough cough **Duel Decks** cough cough)
Also, the art on Whip and Hero's Downfall is incredible. Courser is nice, but I think I prefer the original art better, especially in foil.
Like the last clash pack, this one is gas. Good thing they didn't print another promo land. It was a pain trying to get a set of those promo temples.
Unfortunately, they missed the opportunity to use the Heliod Hero's Downfall art. That's pretty close to the last chance that card will be reprinted with alt art.
wow, this is pretty much 80 percent of a sultai whip deck and a decent shell for generic BG constellation, even without rarelands. definitely worth the 30 bucks, even if the combined deck would need a few tweaks (ie Sidisi herself)
Anyone wanna take a guess at what the Fate Reforged cards will do? Neutralizing Blast kind of sounds like a counter spell, which would make sense so as not to make Annul the only counter in the deck.
It's kind of weird, but I feel like every post-Theros promo art (barring orange soda zoltan boros crap) looks far better than any of the art direction from the actual block itself. Hero's Downfall looks fantastic, and not like some guy being stomped on by a chicken leg.
So which are the front-facing cards for each deck that get the foil treatment?
all of those 6 promos are getting the foil treatment. the front facing cards on the package are Necropolis Fiend and Reaper of the Wilds, if that's what you're asking
Man I really hope we get more ascendancy alt arts. The ones from the trailer are so awesome looking. Glad they are actually using the badass Sidisi art. Too bad Sultai ascendancy sux...

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.

My thoughts exactly when I saw the Downfall. A missed opportunity of epic proportions.

dat courser promo tho
"Kiora is the Aquaman of planeswalkers."
"Useless and everyone pretends to like her?"
Anyways, it's good that we get more promos. Better still if they're eternal playable. Seems like a good start.
Also, why no Treasure Cruise foil???!!!

Necropolis fiend and Hero's Downfall both look great though.
