Personally, I’d like to see [[lotus cobra]] reprinted at rare with new art by Sam Rowan, with collectors number 193.
Also [[shadowborn apostle]], since the new legendary demon has great synergy with them.
Like a 2/2 flyer for 3 is ok, but since it gets a +1/+1 counter when non-token creatures you control die, and you draw a card and lose a life if it was a cleric, it just seems like great synergy.
Add on the fact that it has flying and once it has 5 counters, it also gets lifeline and you have a real sweet commander deck started. Pity apostles are like $5 each.
Also [[avenger of zendikar]] is the iconic zendikar card, but its unlikely to be reprinted due to its power. Hopefully they make a reference to it, like a 6 mana r/g 5/5 legendary elemental that makes a plant token for each basic you control on etb, and has landfall - add 4 +1/+1 counters to a plant. That would be sweet.
Also I hope it has a showcase frame that is basically an fnm promo with extra trimming and a hedron shaped cut out for the art.
Also 4/3 flyers for 4 in white are super cool so I hope there’s one that, on etb, finds a copy of itself in your sideboard and adds it to your hand. Also its an angel warrior.!
And a 3 CMC equipment that gives +2/+2, First Strike and Flying, equips for 2WW but equips on ETB for free.
It's limited information at the moment, but I thought folks might be interested. Prid3 in the mtgfinance subreddit confirms the leaks are real.
Update: See this thread in the MTGRumors subreddit.
... this looks like a wishlist - there is nothing even remotely spoilery/leaky at all.
I think it is written that way intentionally. But the extreme specificity with the lotus cobra and everything related to the cleric-eating demon are clearly spoiling (or pretending to be spoiling) things.
So if this is true, are shadowborn apostles just going to go up to like $10 now? Is Wizards going to announce a new secret lair with 6 of them? (Or are they getting reprinted in Zendikar Rising too, that would be sweet!)
The way it is written conveys a sense that he knows some information about some cards in the set, but did not want to be targeted for knowing some insider deals. It could also be written like this to make people believe that is an actual spoiler simply by being somewhat "clever".
Either way, I enjoy the spoilers, if real, a lot. A new alternate "Avenger of Zendikar" is just what my Windgrace needs!

if these end up being real i'm not disappointed in any of them honestly. they're not broken, and they're not terrible, and some of them actually look like they'll be fun

That's not a problem; my deck runs enough that it should be fine.

That's not a problem; my deck runs enough that it should be fine.
Same for me. I think that even if I have 3-4 basics out I can make this work. I run around 12 basics in my Windgrace build and I could easily get this thing to produce some results. Even if you only habe 3 basics out, you get 3 blockers that can then become threats. In a deck dedicated to lands this card could be really cool.
I do wish instead of plants they had gone with Saproling tokens.
If Zendikar has 350ish cards, there's either a ton of lands/artifacts/multi color cards or lotus cobra is probably not 193. That would be approximately 40-45 cards of each color and 150+ lands/artifacts/multi color. And no colorless spells, because those go first.

So what does it all mean.
Actually that seems about right at 193. If you take a look at say green from double masters green subsided in the 151-188 out of 332
this is 193/280 (280 cards in the set) and since the ordering is Colorless > WUBRG > Multicolor > Artifacts > Lands, and we can assume a few more green cards after that, we're looking at say 60-70ish Multicolor+artifacts+lands, which for a land themed set feels about right.
350 is a lot and tends to be reserved for sets like Double masters now (those numbers being a bit inflated by the glut of alternate art and special printing cards tied to the set). 270-280 is the normal range for a set like this.
In what universe? If you build a deck like that, and ever draw that hand, I will personally come to wherever you live, perform complicated acts of awestruck ********, then disembowel myself to escape the world that allowed something like this to occur and validate you.
It will ETB without a valid target for his ability.

Not sure if I should get a edgewalker Now or later because will it be reprinted or not be reprinted In zendikar rising
anyway how are these leaks it sounds like a speculation list rather than a leak how do we know these are legit leaders confirming all are correct
don’t know either but it’s claimed some reliable leakers are saying he’s right on nearly all of those
but I’m not holding my breath too much either
