    The Axe set symbol belong to Duel Deck: Heros vs. Monsters.


    True my bad, but it still doesn't match the Theros symbol (looking at the actual symbol this time) it's supposed to have like a stick thing in the middle which the spoiler doesn't have. It's just a trapezoid at the bottom with 2 partial circles on the sides and the top looks closed off completing a 3/4 circle all around. The stick thing doesn't touch the partial circles on the sides by the way, it's separate.

    I think this could very well be a fake, I could be wrong of course but there's a lot that seems off. If you look at the card closely (http://imgur.com/3KLlV13) the watermark does NOT look like the Theros symbol. The Theros symbol is an axe with a handle.

    Second the name. They gave it a name with no good reason not to use it. Yeah Kamigawa was a pain pronouncing some stuff but that's no reason to not use the right name for it.

    Third, does anyone else find it odd that's there a random picture of a Theros card at the bottom of the September poster with no captions like "Get ready for Theros pre-release/game day whatever"? Just..seems...off...

    I'll wait for the official spoiler for it. I mean we know it'll be an Enchantment obviously and probably an Artifact since it's a weapon but no Equipment? Sad face it it's true Frown

    Since so many people seem to be having trouble even though it's been explained I'll go ahead and give the full rules for EE.

    Overload: Overload like EE's free cast clause are both alternative mana costs. Only ONE alternative mana cost can be applied to a card so you can't Overload a card cast with EE.

    Copy cards: Reverberate can target EE but since EE leaves the stack before Reverberate resolves it'll be countered due to no valid target. You CAN'T use Reverberate or similar cards to get free EE's. You CAN however use Pyromancers Ascension that has 2 counters to get another one.

    Everything goes to the graveyard regardless of whether you cast it or not.

    That said I can guarantee decks with this'll show up in Modern. Just an idea for a list:

    4x Manamorphose
    4x EE
    4x Pyretic Ritual
    4x Seething Song
    4x Past in Flames
    2x Desperate Ritual
    4x Pact of Negation
    4x Serum Visions
    4x Sleight of Hand
    4x Peer Through The Depths
    2x Empty The Warrens

    4x Steam Vents
    4x Scalding Tarn
    4x Sulfur Falls
    5x Island
    3x Mountain

    It's a rough idea but it seems viable enough.
