You think this is real?
I kind of don't on the basis that Wizards hates RW so they never make good cards for it since Lighting Helix.
>>
>pay 3
>4/2 first striker
yeah no. it would be more believable if it's pay 4.
>>
>>43783689
i thot that was confirm fake

>dies to Wild Slash

It seems shitty enough to be real.

Fake and gay.

When did this happen?

Somewhere between Arabian Nights and Legends.

Something that is allowed to have nice things because it is part Blue.
>>
>>43784014
>it is part Blue.

All is right with the world.
>>
>>43784014
>allowed to have nice things because it is part Blue
Explain RTR Dimir, then.
>>
>>43784052

It had black.
>>
>>43783689
Hasn't that art been used elsewhere already?
>>
>>43783689
>that art
Jesus fuck it looks like dA-grade CGI. Do not want.
>>
>>43784069
So did Abzan.
>>
>>43784085

But Abzan had WHITE!
>>
>>43784075
It was in BFZ trailer, but it hasn't shown up in any cards yet because it's actually the RW dual.
>>
>"Indignation Cliff"

And someone actually thought this was real?
>>
>>43784109
As does the RW you claim Wizards "hates".

Fucking Kozilek and his mind-warping magic.
>>
>>43784109
No, Abzan has green which Wizards loves.
>>
>>43784136

They cancel each other out.
>>
>>43784180
So Wizards hates red and, to a lesser extent, black. Got it.
>>
>>43783689
If it were real, which it isn't, it would be called "Indignant Bluffs"

That's funny as shit. How high are you?

No, man, it's "Hi, how are you?"

>>43784109
Abzan had the dank memes that timmy loves.
>>
>>43784214
They don't hate black/blue so much as they're super lazy with it these days and only let it mill things (and mill is SHIIIIIIIIT).

Pre-NWO it used to be a pretty strong combination.
>>
>>43786028

Mill would be nice if they made it DO anything. They need more cards that actually do stuff when you mill rather than having mill as the be all and end all.

Like milling X, then the guy losing life equal to the highest CMC card he lost.
>>
>>43784159
Hell of a twist, WotC has sacrificed enough interns to summon Kozilek to our plane. All this crazy bullshit has gotta be the result of Kozi's maddening influence!
>>
>>43786049
Dr. Teeth reprint when?
>>
Wizards hates RW for an obvious reason.

RW is popular, especially among new players. People naturally gravitate towards that color combination, even if the cards for it aren't that great.

Why? My guess is that RW includes the two most popular creature types, Angels and Dragons, and is the combination of Fire magic (always popular) and being the Good guy.

It's a bizarre phenomena that Wizards understands, and it sees no reason to help those color be more attractive than they are. It sort of like how Wizards realized that no one like green, so they started printing a lot of powerful green cards.
>>
>>43788494
I remember when I started playing and a friend of mine who played mtg for more time had cast a counterspell on me, I felt bad, cheated(since it was a high cmc card countered, and I never knew a card like that existed), and most of all, it took all the fun I had that match.
This is probaly why blue control is not really something most people start with, if you are playing it, you will most likely fuck it up. and if you are playing against, you will feel bad because your opponent is not trying to build anything, his objective is to fuck whatever awesome stuff your trying to do.

>>43784085

>>43784161
This is like watching a funny "argument" in a comedy film.
>>
>>43788710
well it is a dumb playstyle and I doubt, very much so, originally that the way people play Control decks was ever something Wizards wanted to be.

now of course they make and balance the game around it, but it is a queer mutation of the cardgame if you look at it from the start.

the developers were probably highly annoyed that people just loaded decks up with counterspells and kill spells and 1 win condition.

even now playing against it is entirely different than any other decktype, its like playing an entirely different game, and the players who like control are entirely different players.

if I out-grind and out-value a midrange or aggro player with my midrange/aggro/combo/tempo deck, they are fine with it, it was a "good game"

if I out value a control deck they get visibly frustrated, like say when i'm playing Abzan rally right now, when I draw 13 cards and dump a ton of creatures into the grave at the end of the turn and then Rally on their upkeep they get pissed.
>>
>>43790236
That's mostly due to many control players being dicks. Control is the best playstyle tm and requires the most skill tm and all the pros like luis scott memeus play blue all the time so many control players think they are the hot shit only because they are playing that deck. It's pretty funny seeing many players in my local meta playing jeskai black and thinking they are the hot shit but none of them won an fnm yet because they can barely play the deck correctly, yet those are the ones who complain about losing to the midrange or aggro flavor of the month because they were digging for responses the whole game and didn't find them. I mean maybe it's just a thing here but i just feel like control has the most crybaby players out of all the playstyles.
>>
>>43784223
Are you serious? Green has been taking other colors shit for the past couple of sets, it's the new blue for fucks sake
>>
>>43790552
I know you're a troll but JesKai Black is not at control deck
>>
>>43790236
Maybe this is why they are trying to shift more attention to creatures recently.
>>
>all this confirmation bias
>all this "them" vs "us" mentality

You know people are absolutely shit at magic when they identify themselves as a color or archetype.

"I'm an aggro player! Control players suck and combo is lame!" or "I only play control, because it is the only right way to play magic" people love to fling shit at each other.
>>
Let me guess.

>RW will have first strike
>GB will have deathtouch
>UR will have looting

So fucking original.
>>
>>43791077
UR will have prowess because they're trying to jam that down our throats now with no thought put into "Man a 2/1 that you have to spend 3 mana on every turn sure would be great if you had to spend EVEN MORE MANA to make it actually useful"
>>
>>43791077
Wishlist:

>G/B Manland -- GB: 3/3 Trample
>R/W Manland -- 1RW: 3/2 Firststrike
>U/R Manland -- UR: 2/3 flying

This better happen.
>>
>>43791770
UR will have an ETB.
>>
>>43783689
>the most un-original RW manland anyone could ever think of

It's probably real
>>
>>43791077
>>43791310

entitled pricks. you are cancer
>>
>>43791077
This is what I thought of too

It'll probably be a reality

The GU and the WB are so fucking dry
>>
>>43791770
R/G was the prime candidate for trample and it didn't happen. G/B screams death touch or infect
>>
>>43784254
>somehow getting "all CGI is bad" from "this CGI is bad"
Are you full-time retarded or just moonlighting?
>>
>>43791819
The 4 power puts it a bit over the top. I'm thinking >>43791077 is probably correct. It makes sense from a design standpoint for these to be lackluster compared to the other cycle since they are enemy colors.
>>
>>43791781
that is literally retarded.

It is already on the battlefield. having an ETB would accomplish exactly fucking nothing. worse than nothing because it takes the place of an actually useful mechanic
>>
>>43791908
>that is literally retarded.

So is Treasure Cruise. What's your point?
>>
>>43791870
Yeah I know. Deathtouch is the most shared keyword between the two and will almost assuredly be what we see. A man can dream though. Infect is the madmans guess.
>>
>>43791908
You're right. It'll have haste.
>>
>>43791940

>Infect in standard

allofmywant.jpeg

Except the mirror matches would be fucking horrible and down to almost pure luck.

Still sad it wont happen for atleast another year
>>
>>43791077

Looting on a land that can also generate colored mana? Sign me up.

>>43791940
Regenerate
>>
>>43791980
Infect is never coming back.
Feel free to cap this post.
>>
>>43791870
Infect would require them to print at least a dozen other infect cards in the set. It's not going to happen
>>
I think it'll go down like this:
>UR Land: 2UR for a 2/2 with prowess and loot
>RW Land: Either the one above or 1RW for a 2/1 with double strike
>GB Land: 1GB for a 1/3 with Deathtouch
>>
>>43794581
I base this on nothing, but I hope Celestial Colonnade set the precedent for a high-cost-activation big-body manland

pls no
>>
>4/2 first strike for 1RW

not completely shit, yet not bend over backwards amazing like creeping tar pit

I say its just meh enough to be real
>>
I'm hoping the RW one is actually Menace and some white ability. We need another manland with some form of evasion. It won't happen though because we all know RW can't have nice things.

Also, 178/184, copyright 2015, it's fake. Might be a mockup but I doubt it
>>
>>43783689
It looks way too shit (the art looks like it's been poorly-ripped) to be real.
>>
>>43790739
Literally what? Surely you must be trolling. Name any number of green cards in Standard or Modern that break the color pie.
>>
>>43783689

I don't know how anyone can believe "Indignation Cliff" is a real name. At the very least it should be Indignant Cliff, but it's just so shitty either way, so embarrassingly shitty for whatever autist thought this was a clever fake
>>
>>43783716
True, but Wizards loves having utility lands ETB tapped to hamstring them, and this will only come online T4 unless you're in Naya. So it's not too far-fetched.

It's at the extreme upper limit of what I'd consider possible for Oath power-wise, but even knowing nothing about any discussion or confirmation I'd still tend to say fake.

with shitty combat tricks thrown in.

Compare that with all the shit BG regularly gets and it's ridiculous.
>>
>>43783689
Manaleak.com doesn't even have this on their site.

Just some fake and gay fuckboy trying to ride the coattails of the actual spoilers. The name is fucking retarded, and the art is not Jung Park's style.

And OP is a faggot.
