And just as Bolas was about to deliver the fatal blow to the Gatewatch Garruk showed up and wrecked everyone and everything in his path. The End.
Haha, that would be the surprise end. Seriously speaking though, it seems there is no update on Garruk anymore. We don't know if he turned into a demon already or was cured?
They won't be using him anymore since that card was printed wich showed him overpowering Lilliana. This caused such a backlash from the snowflake community that they abruptly stopped Garruk storyline.
They also want Lilly to be redeemable. What she did to Garruk would make her unredeemable. So that was another nail in Garruk's coffin.
They even printed a female version of him to fill his planeswalker niche, namely Vivien Reid.
This is great place to print long dead characters from mtgs past now that i think of it. Serra is proof of that and i have a feeling they're really trying to sell this on nostalgia.
I also appreciate ya'll's lack of condescending. We need more of that on this site!
Oh would you look at that, I've been running Curious Delver for a bit, I had no idea others were giving that combination a try. The most powerful sequences are T1 delver, T2 curious obssession while holding up stubborn denial. Protecting the curious one so that the aura at LEAST replaces itself is KEY. To do this you could stock up on dispels instead, but Stubborn denials are just overall stronger.
My list for curious obsession is Sultai, because Obsession on monkeys is way stronger than on Angler.
Its still very much a prototype, and I just want to say if you face a lot of high cmc creatures then the removal suite has to be adjusted for dismembers or go for the throat. The strategy is very close to grixis delver, except the "queen" piece will draw cards every time she connects. A lot of fun. I listed obsession under "cantrips" because if you play right, that's what it is.
If you're on the obsession plan, might i suggest cutting the Tasigurs for 4 Pteramanders? This way you have 8 one drop flyers who can start drawing you cards from t2.
All the black cards took place on Phyrexia or delt with the Phyrexians and their influence.
All the white cards took place on Serra's realm.
All the green cards took place on ancient Argoth
Red took place on Shiv
Blue took place on Tolaria.
All the color's told a story involving Urza.
Atraxa is a horrible uninspired keyword soup. It would have been fine with only flying, vigilance and proliferate.

Maybe not Yawgmoth, but it definatly feels Phyrexian.
Maybe Croag or Kerrick?
So don't reprint cards that are too expensive so we can keep the boosters cheap and watch the expensive cards get even more out of hand?
Sounds like a bad plan.
Now i've gone from ecstatic to amused...
I just wish she could be my commander
Also, the therapist is a cool throwback to cabal therapy in art and effect.
Love this set allready.
Agreed. We also don't need a 10th version of Jace, Chandra and Gideon etc.
It's time to get rid of some of these bozos and continue with Karn, Koth, Elspeth and some other lesser represented characters.

Stubborn Denial is amazing with the Djinn out.
I agree that a miser Vedalken Shackles somewhere in the 75 would be great.
It's a hasty finisher, removal and land destruction in one card.
