    Slot 135 - is there a possibility for a Lightning Rift functional reprint ?? Would love it, and would be more playable than the Astral, if we get the Onslaught lands back

    They kind of made one in Amonkhet: Faith of the Devoted

    Monocolor imbalance in mythic usually matches multicolor mythics containing the missing color (not always the case).

    Ultimate Masters had 20 Mythics, but IIRC it didn't have basic lands (hence the extra 5 slots).

    Saw the picture and it is fake. The collector's number doesn't fit the crunch

    With the second sword revealed, we are either getting more than 15 mythics or a color won't get 2. I believe we won't see a second monored mythic.

    We in a way have a pursudo mythic cycle

    A mono color legendary (unless have abilities otherwise)

    So far it’s serra for white and urza for blue

    I think we will end up with legends of the other ones

    B will definatly be either gix or yawgmoth (maybe both since neither of the black mythics are shown yet)

    R should be Jared Carthalion based on some cards

    G the best I can think of for now is gaea if you have any other ideas let me know?

    Green already got its two mythics. It has a rare legend, Ayula!
    I expect every color to get a legendary creature, but rarity is not given.

    They've said there would be other "cycle extensions" besides the Canopy lands. While it may not be the swords, we haven't seen any hint of other cycle extensios so far.


    But I agree they are either rare or not in the set. 2 mythics per color + 5 colorless/multicolor mythic seems to be the case here.

    A Cycle of Allied Swords seems very plausible, considering the crunch!

    I'm dreaming with Sterling Grove in Modern Horizons for a while.

    For now, I only see as somehow useful for Force of Vigor, as an answer against Blood Moon, and maybe the green one that turns the creature into a 6/4 wurm. We're not much into one-time pumps, but a +5/+3 for 1 mana might be useful at some point. Anyway, I don't really thing it would make the cut. I'm still hoping for Grove or a cheap pushed aura!

    I'm sure glad these planeswalkers who made wrong decisions for their entire life could simply change their mind at the absolute last second and stop the evil mastermind who made the right decisions for his entire plan. Thank God that family was standing under that rock that fell so Liliana could see how bad she was. Laughing


    Um, you know she was working for Bolas against her will, right? Liliana is one of the good guys, albeit a self-centred and power hungry one. Bolas has control of the pacts she made with the four demons to keep her youth and grant her power, and she was working for him because if he wanted he could snuff her out (in theory) by cancelling the deals. The family who got killed in the trailer looked like her and her brother when they were younger and made her decide that living wasn't worth the damage she was causing.

    So it's not that a bad character suddenly changed her mind, it's more she finally decided something was more important than living.

    Now, if Tezzeret suddenly turns hero on us, then you can complain.

    No, no she is not one of the good guys. A good guy does not have a zombie horde ravage a major city, killing thousands, and force a hero to release a demon or see her compatriots be devoured alive by zombies. A hero does not traffic with demons. Lily is primarily motivated by her fear of dying and her own freedom. She does not care about you, she does not care about what is right. She cares about herself first and foremost. All that happened was that she realized she'd rather die free than live as a slave. But she is not good by any stretch of the imagination.


    THIS.

    In the end, it doesn't even matter because it's a card game. Story telling to the back. Smile

    Indeed, it doesn't even matter. She had to fall to lose it all.

    There's no space for neither a Blue "Oath of" or a Black "Oath of". It hints which planeswalkers could join the Gatewatch in this set.
