M11 Spoiler

It has begun!

From the Archenemy decks (or Archnemesis if you're Jim)

Archnemesis is cooler...

I really like Chandra's Outrage. 4 mana for 6 damage at instant speed is very good, I expect that to be a high pick in limited.

Plummet seems totally like a SB control for mono-green decks, nothing like killing a Baneslayer or some Eldrazi flier for 2 mana.

I laugh at you, Leaf Arrow! (except when someone has a Swans out against me)

I'll pay the 1 extra mana to make sure I kill the flier ... Leaf Arrow is good, but it's a green Strafe that hits only Flying creatures. So it doesn't kill Baneslayer, but, of course, Leaf Arrow would be better than Plummet if the flier in question has 3 or less toughness and their is no way your opponent could boost it's toughness.

Plummet is good because its a Wallop for all colors at Instant speed!
Wing Snare is 2G and a Sorcery. The only other instant 'Destroy target flying creature.' is Gloomwidow's Feast which is Instant and can give you a 1/2 token with Reach, but it costs 3G.

Plummet is a great addition for Green.

I really like the Zombie. A 1/1 for 1B that can come back from GY for 1B, that's pretty cool. Did I mention he can come back at instant speed from the GY?

I like Chandra's Outrage, but it's probably more-so because I have a huge crush on the Red planeswalking pyro. <3

The Strongbox might be a 'Meh' for most people, but it's a colorless spell that can potentially draw you three cards. It's priced very well and fits very well into colorless. The thing with colorless (more so Artifacts) is that it is a jack-of-all-trades color, it can do everything, but not to the same extent it's colored counterpart could. So 4 and then a 2T 'Flip a coin, if you win sac and draw 3.' is actually very well balanced and fair. Would paying 4 and auto-getting a 3 draw with no drawbacks be fair? No color has that, so why should colorless get it?

Baneslayer, Fireball, Lightning Bolt, and the rare land cycle are in!

And Captivating Vampire, on the spoiler.

Any guesses how long until someone paints Robert Pattinson on it?

yay! maybe now i can get a Baneslayer! maybe now they won't be a million dollars!

Well, the rare land cycle from M10 is back, dashing my hopes we would be playing the pain-lands again. And Baneslayers back too... fuck.

it's not bad! it'll reduce the cost slightly, and there's another 3 months worth of drafts to offer a chance to get one!

When is the pre-release for M11 anyway? I'm really enjoying drafting RoE at the moment, and I tend to not enjoy Core Sets, so maybe it's time to take up SW miniatures or D&D for the time being?

Lol, I agree and I love SWM and D&D. SWMs is pretty much dead, unless you wanna play local with the few people from DC that still play and wait until a company picks up the game and D&D is okay right now ... but its such an out-of-date RPG that you could do better (I have an idea for Magic the Gathering the RPG in the works if anyone is interested in playing it I'll move ahead with it)

I love drafting ROE as much as the next guy, but I don't think M11 will be that bad. Hell, I'll draft Homelands. I just love drafting!

~Zuty

Well, there's now a functional reprint of Kodama's Reach. I think I'll enjoy this set.

Since I have been going mad playing Paupers on MWS and MTGO I only have been paying real attention to the commons.

One of which is Jace's Erasure

1U
Enchantment
Whenever you draw card, target player mills one.

This will see some play for sure :3

~Zuty

I kind of doubt it'll be played in standard, but it'll be fun in limited. Draft a couple of those and some Tome Scours and you could build a nice little mill deck.

I meant in Paupers (AKA. All Common Magic)

I like this guy. 6 for a 6/6 with Vig that brings back any permanent with CMC 3 or less from the GY to play when it hits the field and each time it attacks.

~Zuty

Hmmm... Not a horrible card. Definitely something I'd try using in some manner or another.

wow, that card seems pretty insane to me. The fact that it says target permanent is the best part. It can return lands, utility artifacts, enchantments, creatures, looks really powerful to me. Anything small with a sac effect can become pretty degenerate with this guy. I like it a lot.

Does the July 10th date indicate that this will be the prerelease or release promo?

Prerelease. There's a pic of Ancient Hellkite dated with the 16th on it, making it the launch party card.

So what permanent with CMC 3 or less breaks this card? There must be one.

Slyphidine wrote:So what permanent with CMC 3 or less breaks this card? There must be one.

looking now. this thing raises lands too!

Best I've seen so far is Deed.

With Dauntless Escort close behind.

Where's the 3CMC Artifact that says "Sacrifice ~this~: Take an extra turn after this one."

Someone suggested Eternal Witness with Time Warp, but you need to find a way to kill the Witness.

i just re-read the card...
"OR ATTACKS??"


Jesus christ.

Deed for 1, this guy, get the deed back.

Deed for 5, attack, get the deed back.
