MTG Salvation

Wow, boy did you guys miss some pretty big hints in that story.

-This story implies what we suspected but did not yet know for sure: That the Eldrazi's release is part of a larger plot of Bolas's to regain his lost power.

-There is a Failsafe to Bolas's plans. What Failsafe? Alara? That didn't quite work exactly the way it was planned. or is there a series of Failsafes?

-Sarkhan now knows of Sorin Markov. This is only important in that with planeswalkers being so rare any new knowledge of another walker is Important.

Everything else you guys caught such as Narset and Sarkhan's potentially lengthy stay on Tarkir,also The explanation to how the time traveling does not retcon events that happened on other worlds and a potential showdown between Nicol and Sarkhan (and friends?) in a distant future.

I like the Teacher Idea. Thier entire mission could be to search out, ignite and train new walkers. Tho I wonder if Ugin could fit this bill if Creative wanted him to?

Akki_Akki personally can't wait till March 6-8 when we get Magic Origins preview(s). Hopefully it has Legend and/or Walker. That way it will silence 2 of the 3 sides for this argument.

Side 1: Double-Face Card of Legend and Walker
Side 2: Legends that fetch Walkers
Side 3: Legends and Walkers that are separate cards and don't fetch either.

Akki_Akki apologize if Akki_Akki come off as rude but Akki_Akki tired of cycle of arguing thats been going on for pages and pages and pages throughout this thread.

and so Akki_Akki shall walk away from this thread for Akki_Akki have no desire to keep cycle perpetuated.

So Say We All! may we listen to the counsel of the wisest of Goblinkind.

Important notes on Innistrad:
1. It was a VERY popular block
2. Sorin, it's guardian is a VERY popular PW

So how bout we wait about 3/4 years (maybe less!) and see wht is revealed in the future alright? We can't make certain assumptions yet because we lack more knowledge on the subject. Creative have not forgotten Innistrad and it's Guardians and will make compelling revelations in the future. I promise. We really can't speculate a whole lot on this yet without making baseless speculations. It's a neat theory so hang onto it and wait patiently await the day these theories are shown to be right....or wrong.

The Raven Man comes to mind as being someone with a pseudo-name....

I HATE what the Sultai stand for, They evoke more dislike from me than some malevelant "god of self-pity" like mono B Erebos. Evil has many facets and some evil actually IS more stereotypical in it's evilness than other types. I find it interesting that In Theros, There was a mono W "villain" Heliod who distrusted planeswalker outsiders to the point he killed his own champion, BUT there was also a RG Villian who represents the evils of abandon, reckless pursuit of freedom and the desire to up heave the Gods and give them the finger. Is there some sympathy/empathy for the Satyr? Sure, but he still destroyed a lot of property and killed alot of peeps in his path to godhood. Sometimes I think people are so quick to point out the evils in Black and, inversely, White they forget that Green, Blue and Red can also have their own brands of villain that make you say "I really, REALLY want to squish you."

I'd like a male plant mage. Somebody who pumps out saplings perhaps? He's probably be Mono G or perhaps G/W G/B depending on his circumstance.
Plant magic would be highly versatile both defensively and offensively. One minute your saving a desolate plane from starvation, the next you're planting a tree- through somebody's head.

Maro's talked about doing multi-walker cards on his blog before, and rules-wise there's nothing stopping them. The concern he expressed was making the art fit given the dimensions of the card and the scale they typically use for 'walkers. That's the sort of thing I think they could find a way to work around.

You missed

Side 4: The Origin cards are cards that are playable Launch Day only like the Theros block Champion cards. They can fetch Planeswalker cards of their namesake for that event only.

Akki_Akki give thanks for small enlightenment for pointing that side out.

Well, the schedule for PAX East has been put online, and here's what's said about the Magic panel:

Magic: The Gathering Panel

Sarkhan Vol has reforged Tarkir’s destiny and now each clan fights under the leadership of a mighty dragon lord. Visit the Magic: The Gathering panel to see what future awaits Sarkhan upon his return and learn more about Dragons of Tarkir, the third set of the Tarkir block. Get the inside track on the Prerelease and talk to some of the key R&D and Program leaders from Wizards of the Coast.

Presented By: Liz Lamb-Ferro, Global Brand Manager and key members of Magic R&D.

So now it's official, the clans are led by a Dragon o/

I find it more frightening that people are viewing Dromoka's dislike of Abzan necromancy as "ethnic cleansing".
Additionally, The Remembrance was described already as being malevolent.

Quote from TheIronCaptain »

We'll see about your choice of profanity once Fate Reforged is out.

No. We will see right now, based on the fact you pulled a quote saying it comes from the Guide, when it doesn't.

All we need to know is that our UR's are centered on the "ghost continent" or "Ugin Continent" if you prefer since it is where Ugin's Nexus is...

The Nexus is on Temur lands.

,,, there's no such passage anywhere in the Planeswalker's Guide. Can we please stop giving attention to the bull*****?
