It's a shame that they're sticking with Forgotten Realms. I'd love to see an interpretation of Dragonlance. Imagine having cards representing Raistlin or Caramon or Tanis or Tasselhoff.

Wow, that would be a great idea! I loved those books (I still own the copies I bought during the 1980's...). Anyhow, not sure how many can relate to these characters, as it has been so long since the book were written. WotC, please read this and make some Dragonlance cards! My vote is for Takhisis, Queen of Darkness as she would make a great Legend.

Man, that Halo Fountain is a fascinating play. Feels like it's got some real utility. Put down some sort of creature with a tap ability, or something that can swing in without dying, and then for a single white mana, you get two blockers on the crackback.

This feels like it's going to be the backbone of some really gross decks.

Good thing Artifact removal is still fairly common.

Also love that card, great abilities and more card draw for white, we can't get too much of that! The 3rd ability is almost impossible to pull off, but if you ever do, that will be a game to remember...

Those Checklands are trash. Just my opinion, but its true.

Ugliest art I've seen in quite a while.... Can't imagine spending a dime on those...

Damn. Every mode on Xander is a feel-bad. Prepare to be hated out by a table of miserable players.

Lol, I must be a sadistic player...

Wow, Lord Xander is really insane! Three interesting triggers which get better and better. Lots of deckbuilding possibilities, great design! Only drawback, he's a bit expensive mana wise, but that wouldn't stop me from using him as my general.

"multiple white cards capable of drawing a card each turn"

Can't wait to see those! I just hope they are not too restrictive and that WotC are finally pushing the envelope a bit more on this ability.

Hmm, I think you are right about Nephilim, good call!

Love goading effects, but surprised they decided to make it evergreen.

Might add this one to my Osgir deck.

This entire post is utter nonsense.

Motorcycles.....WotC has reaaaly lost it's soul.

What's next, sports cars?

Jeez....

Feels like an avalanche, the main difference being that in the case of a real avalanche, it eventually comes to a stop at the foot of the mountain. In WotC's case, there is NO mountain base to stop this insane amount of new product !

Your data shows an incredible progression in just 6 years... I knew it was bad, but not THAT bad! Honestly, in my case I find it overwhelming and I no longer get excited as I used to with the coming of new cards. There is so much to take in, I can't find the time to try and fit new cards in existing decks. I do however try to jot down those that are a great fit for an eventual purchase or trade.

Indeed, Golos makes no sense, but I guess the card had already been commissioned before the ban.

Wow, this is truly bizarre! Whoever thought of doing something like that???

There is a line of text in the higher portion of the art, saying:

Golf sucks now and has always sucked.

Not sure if this is real, seems fake as I don't see WotC putting something like that on a card (even a Secret Lair)...

Couple this card with older spells which provide an additionnal combat phase (lots of possibilities in red).
Not the strongest, but useful in the right deck.
