Right? I don't understand people who get so irrationally irritated at something like this. Just go to a spoiler compiler and let other people enjoy it their own way. Woof.
These planeswalkers are a great design because they're made to benefit decks, not be built around. We've been forced to look at "ults" as game-winning or game-changing forever, and when they're just really good and fit into a creature curve, it takes a bit to wrap our brains around them, I think.
Interesting. Not amazing obviously at that cost but a Warleader's Helix on a stick for -2 is pretty nice. In addition, if he starts at 4 or 5, his ult can be crushing and achieved reasonably easily. Pretty not bad as far as these go.
Not to mention if they do just Dead Zone Bolas, they can always bring him back at a later time like they did with Emrakul (who is also effectively Dead Zoned).
If they're saving these turds for a later date, where tf is Yawgmoth? Whens gonna be his time????
It's so incredibly lame that they make Judge promos and change ...basically nothing? The new legend border on the Mox is not good enough - it needs new art or the old border or something. This is just blah. The Guile is cool though.
Everything about this set and its story reminds me of Apocalypse and the whole Invasion cycle. You have all these powerful walkers fighting against an all-powerful god and the actual plane itself rising up in pretty spectacular ways to just dump all over mindless, recyclable minions throwing themselves in waves against the defenders. You've even got The Wanderer as a Blind Seer analog. It's really cool and somewhat nostalgic.
I don't care what people say...that artwork is stellar
A villain with his mental and intellectual capacity wouldn't waste a single resource in his quest for absolutely divine conquest. Why not use figures who people once revered and considered gods in their entirety?
'buster
Yeah that piece of art is absolutely next-level. I hope the corresponding card is as cool.
