Wall for trachy (page 22)

Hard to say if Bring to Light will be any good. It seems like mainly a modern card. Will Living End be fine with waiting two more turns to play Living End with the upside of being able to play cards with cmc of less than 3?

It's interesting how you're rank #3 in all 3 sections.

Not very many interesting spoilers today (besides the always fantastic art from Noah Bradley) except for Smothering Abomination, which I am probably going to put into my Mardu Aristocrats deck.

Kiora, Master of the Depths: She seems solid enough, and her ultimate is fantastic. However, the main impediment to her success is the current lack of a good UG shell to put her in. It's unsure whether or not such a deck will occur in Standard, or if we'll continue to see Abzan continuing to dominate.

Ob Nixilis Reignited: Much better than originally though, since his ult reads whenever a player draws rather than Underworld Dreams. So Nekusar is going to love this guy in EDH. As for Standard, he's card advantage, removal, and a win condition wrapped in one. Seems very strong to me. Being mono-colored is sure to help him, and I would expect to see him in most control builds.

Undergrowth Champion: I'm unimpressed with this guy. He should be good in limited, but I don't think he'll break through into Standard. Personally, I prefer Managorger Hydra.

Conduit of Ruin: Now this is awesome. First off, it tutors your giant Eldrazi 7/8/9 drop, then cheapens it so you can play it next turn. And yeah, all your first creatures each turn are now cheaper to cast. Seems very powerful for only six mana.

Desolation Twin: Probably won't make it into Standard since Ulamog will probably be the better choice at 10 mana. However, this feels so big. I've always loved casting Wingmate Roc and Broodmate Dragon. Having two 10/10s feels great, especially since one of them is essentially uncounterable.

Stasis Snare: Very strong white removal. Essentially an instant speed Journey to Nowhere. Should see plenty of Standard play, especially if we see a decline in Enchantment removal due to the rotation of Theros block.

Scythe Leopard: It's no Steppe Lynx. Then again, not much is. That was an extremely pushed aggro common. But the Leopard should still see play in an aggro based mono-Green deck if one exists.

Nice to see the manland cycle finished.

Scavenger of the Depths seems like a solid card. In limited, Deathtouch is going to be great with all the huge Eldrazi around, and it can help you bounce back in the late game. As for Standard, I can easily see this being a card that control likes. Deathtouch, instant speed card draw, and an alternate win condition with exiling makes this a very enticing card.

Warp Point over a Wartortle in Dance.

Glad to hear that Martin O'Donnell won his legal battle against Bungie/Activision. Dude is one of the best composers in the industry, really only beaten by Darren Korb imo. The Halo soundtrack remains one of my favorite video game soundtracks, especially the fantastic One Final Effort score.

I don't really think Ob is a fail, I just think it was a huge missed opportunity. Agreed on the +1, and I think he should be -2 or -3 to destroy target elemental, it can't be regenerated. Destroys awakened lands, which is literally destroying  parts of Zendikar.

Possibly unpopular opinion, but Zendikar Expeditions cards should not be as rare as they are. I bought a case and I'm hoping to get two, but I'll be lucky to have one.

Ulamog is an "I win" card. I play Legacy and modern Eldrazi ramp and this card is probably the most powerful Eldrazi ever printed. I could drop him turn ~4, exile two lands, and then start swinging. How are kitchen table players supposed to deal with this card? Especially in 1v1 games? In an average game, I can have Ulamog v1 out turn 5. So unless the dude is playing Blue, I'm fairly certain I can get him out and destroy two lands. This leaves him/her with 2 or 3 blockers in play and 3 land. Counter it? I'm exiling anyways. Even if I don't deal damage, I'm going to mill you out. The only threat to this off the top of my head is Path to Exile.

Spoiled Ob Nixilis is dumb from a vorthos perspective. I'm excited for everything else though. Kiora's return, the tango lands, and the new Eldrazi.
