You have to delve a bit, though.

I tried to add:
Fetchlands were rated a 3 in 2013. [1]Since then, the Onslaught fetchlands were reprinted in Khans of Tarkir.

Update: This thread makes a strong argument for the text being the flavor text for the Urza's Saga Dark Ritual, which attributes its quote to the Scriptures.
Update: This transcription probably gets several diacritics? wrong, but it's enough to pick out some recognizable words using the older transcriptions:

Most importantly, the deck builder should incorporate new cards as soon as they're added to the spoilers here. Waiting until the next day or longer on other sites is intolerable. I want to brew when I'm excited by the new card - not next week.
I hope it offers an efficient workflow for adding cards by name. Unless MTGS card search jumps to the efficiency of something like Scryfall or even Gatherer, I'll be searching for cards elsewhere. I want a deck builder that can take my selections and tally up the curve, color, and type distributions. It doesn't need robust search. Having dialogue boxes anywhere in the process is devastating. In other words, emulate Deckstats more than TappedOut.
If the analysis can be performed in real time, excellent. If it refreshes the page at any point, the current page layout's massive header needs to be severely trimmed, at least on the deck builder's page.

I'm happy to unveil a new such compilation over on our Wiki. As a wiki page, with open source and editing permissions, this iteration on the concept should be easy to keep up to date. To further improve the ease of maintenance, this page uses a specialized template (documented here) that will automatically update the most recent Storm Scale values as new references are added.
Enjoy!

Between the Kaladesh panel and the WoW:Legion launch, I thought nothing could bring this week down. I was wrong.

Presumably, she was created because the story called for someone to assassinate Brago. She's black because... why not? Planeswalkers, thanks to their ability to teleport between worlds, rarely have a narrative requirement for any particular ethnicity. Why not use that freedom to represent players?

I'd also hold open the possibility that Kaladesh could have a high-CMC theme to integrate with these last two blocks.

I'll give them credit for creating cute puzzles. I won't give them credit for a non-existent "mystery".
