Definitely agree. I really like the tribal mechanic and if they are going to bring it back, they should've gone all the way with it.

i don't think they'd ever do it because of how much it'd fuck with the color pie, but if they print some kind of colorless removal I will need new underpants.

Just waiting to see a cheap blue "counter target Eldrazi spell"

Also, a set heavily based on mana acceleration sounds a little boring.

Apparently limiting the search to a single card type justifies lowering the cost. Good thing Life From the Loam and Crucible aren't played.

**Tricen** · 2010-03-26 12:27

In EDH they are :>

**Zilong** · 2010-03-26 15:20

lol, even the art is an homage to gift ungiven

Maybe it'd be a mega cycle spanning a few expansions?

**oldoldman** · 2010-03-26 16:29

The Tabernacle at Pendril Vale, Maze of Ith, Tolaria West, Glacial Chasm

:3

lol, I was trying to be sarcastic. There's a 43 (?) Land dec in Legacy that will love this as I'm sure it uses both. I also see Loam in a couple other decks where I play.

EDH will obviously love this.

Edit: Card is fake

Here's a real card though:

Currently smashing FNM with Valakut. No Jund yet but I'm expecting it for the next round. Haaaaating me some Jund now that I'm playing the other side xD

Another spoiler, this from PAX east.

Kinda' Soulscour-ish, I suppose...

**oldoldman** · 2010-03-27 02:13

I can see myself being very angry with the guy who shelled out approximately 1.2 million dollars to make the eldrazi deck. Seriously every good reveal so far has been mythic. fuck that

**Tricen** · 2010-03-27 02:16

There's not a lot of mythics that are worth more then 5$ lol

**oldoldman** · 2010-03-27 03:12

Because most of them suck. When a mythic is good the price goes retarded. See Baneslayer and Jace.

**Tricen** · 2010-03-27 14:07

Yeah, I don't understand printing high rarity cards that aren't playable :/

**Tomiko** · 2010-03-27 16:53

Hey, Wrexial & Novablast Wurm are totally playable*

*in EDH.

**Tricen** · 2010-03-27 17:04

Dude, Novablast is busted in limited :/

The point of mythic originally wasn't to make crazy good cards, but for them to be the big creatures and effects in a given set. Only since M10 really have they gotten aggressive with mythics. It's bullshit.

**Tricen** · 2010-03-27 20:53

Yeah, poor marketing. There should be like 3 mythics in a set, and they should be OP as shit, imo.

I found this to be more appealing than any of those damn Eldrazi. With all the Eldrazi Spawn mana acceleration, it's not too far-fetched to dump something big like 7+ on X resulting in 7 7/7 Oozes to win it next turn.

**Ghost_Wheel22** · 2010-03-29 00:34

I can see potential turn 5-6 ramping to 11 for five 5/5s.

Sexy, but too slow.
