There was literally one card in whole theros block that seemed interesting to me (namely Spirit of Labyrinth) and there is none in the spoiler.
I cant help the feeling of being cheated by wizards

Courser
Keranos
Mana Confluence
Eidolon of the Great Revel
To mention a few that sees eternal play.
And this is just the same rant as some people rant about every spoiler season ever. LEss than a third of the set has been revealed and you can't help feeling cheated...
Well then, how exactly have they cheated you? In what way have wizards personally wronged you?
Also, tryh to not worry too much (yeah, I know it can be hard not to). Try to focus on having a good time together with your girlfriend, instead of focusing on "omigosh, I'm going to have sex".
And if something doesn't go as you've imagined it it's not a big deal.
Neither guttersnipe nor eidolon of the great revel will trigger more than three times. The both trigger when casting a spell, and all the copies are simply placed on the stack without being cast.
You don't get to pick up your graveyard. The word whenever is used to indicate a triggered ability. And as in the english language whenever something happens doesn't look back in time to determine if that would be true then. In english you would then use whenever something has happened or will happen.
tl;dr
No, you donät get to pick up your graveyard. The trigger only triggers on cards after you get the emblem.
If you get an opponent down to no cards in hand you can always have a discard spell ready since you can dredge the land to hand and then discard it to cast raven's crime form your GY
Just a quick question. With nivix cyclops, if i cast an instant on someone else's turn, therefore allowing nivix cyclops to attack, can I attack on that other person's turn?
No, you only allow it to attack as though it doesn't have defender. But just like your other creatures without defender that cannot attack he cannot either.
Anything that isn't a land (or planeswalker emblem, technically), is a spell. Land's are 'played', everything else is 'cast'. Anything you cast, is a spell.
Also, activated or triggered abilities aren't spells so a trigger from something like Wasteland cannot be countered by Counterspell. You need Stifle or something similar for that.
