Ignoring the borderline unusable card, how hard is Sorin gonna go by the end of SOI's plot?
>>
How is the card unusable? It's a perfect control finisher and an easy supporter for a potential combo/ramp deck giving secondary uses to 10+ CMC cards.
>>
Its not like there's any risk of him actually being killed off.
>>
>>46077980
OP probably subscribes to the "anything higher than 4 CMC is unusable" notion.

In other news, Michael Komarck was wasted in BFZ. He should've been the one to paint Sorin. Eric Deschamps is cool and all, but lately his pieces have this too-much-empty-space shit going for it.

The justice league is gonna be the five flip walkers from origins, nahiri and sorin will probably both end up dying since they are oldwalkers, to make room for the JL.

Deschamps seems more lazy now than he has been in the past. Like I said, Komark should've been the one

Man, Sorin's art just keeps getting worse.

It's like they knew that he mainly appeals to edgy DeviantArt hambeasts, so they're slowly adjusting his art to match.

What if, somehow, Nahiri was actually the good guy in this entire debacle?

I've heard people complain here that MTG's artwork is drifting too far from its roots, perhaps this is their attempt to quell the endless tides of /tg/'s faggotry?

Weren't oldwalkers paranoid as fuck anyway? You probably had to back in the day. Every other planeswalker could be another Bolas or Noxibrolus.

The problem is that, a few centuries later...

>Tasked with keeping the Eldrazi sealed
>The other two don't show up when he signals them, abandoning Zendikar to be eaten
>Has to team up with some n00b racist elf to try and get the job done thanks to the Mending making him less powerful
>Aforementioned racist elf ruins everything, forever
>Sorin leaves and goes to seek out Ugin to try and deal with the Eldrazi before they eat and leave Zendikar
>Stops off at Innistrad first in order to save the day.
>Goes to Tarkir and (in the new timeline) frees Ugin from his comatose slumber for the express purpose of stopping the Eldrazi.

We don't know why Sorin missed his appointment on Zendikar the first time around, but he damn sure showed up when he was supposed to the second time, and it was Nissa, not him, who fucked things up - and his immediate reaction is to go and seek out Ugin to help things.

Sorin's every action has been basically to save everyone he comes across, largely from their own stupidity. He is the hero the Multiverse needs but doesn't deserve.
>>
>>46085498
Sorin is millennia older and taught her what she knows.

Nahiri is currently attacking Sorin's vampires, so a fight is inevitable, but last I checked, she's made of blood, but he's not made of stones.

Use your heads guys. He doesn't have enough mana. Nahiri has been blowing his lands and has potentially cast Blood Moon. Fucking Sorin can't drop his planeswalker removal.

I gotta say, I can't see how she's justified. Sure, Sorin didn't come the first time, but it probably wasn't by choice because he sure as hell came the second time, which was frankly much more important.

Her bitching about him not showing up is completely negated by the fact that she abandoned Zendikar to die.

I hope he makes her into a puddle.

The artwork here is just sloppy. The composition is boring. His orientation towards the viewer and the forshortening of his hunched-forward posture make his proportions look fucked, The silver armor sticks out so much more than his actual silhouette, creating the impression that his anatomy is fucked. And most of all, that pose is awful. He's holding the sword SIDEWAYS and drawn at a screwy angle, leaning forward with his upper body, while taking a step forward.
>>
>>46085526
>>46085600
That presupposes she knows he came the second time, when he didn't the first.
>>
>>46085798
Not to mention that he isn't wearing that shitty armor in any of the other art from the set.

Doesn't change the fact that she left Zendikar to die without even checking in to see.
>>
>>46082363
Would be interesting if Nahiri actually wins, but we all know they won't try to pull a twist like that.
>>
>>46085894
How do you know she didn't check the Eye of Ugin first, find him not there, and then go to look for him before he arrived? Then, when she gets back, the Eldrazi are actually OUT, and there's evidence that he was at the Eye when they were released.

Shit, not only did he not show up last time they got out, which was occasioned by vampires, but this time the evidence points towards him DELIBERATELY freeing them!
>>
>>46086030
So she spent more time looking for him than actually saving however many people live on the entire plane of Zendikar?

I'm sorry, she's either insane, evil and/or incompetent. I'm leaning towards the former and latter.
>>
>>46086030
Then the smart thing to do would be to save her homeplane from the Eldrazi menace and then track down the vampire.

One of those is time sensitive. While she goes after Sorin, Eldrazi ravage her home. While she deals with the Eldrazi, what's the worst thing Sorin could do? He already released the Eldrazi.

There's little else of the same scale, and probably nothing with the same level of personal investment for her.

I sincerely hope she ends up being brainwashed by Bolas or something, because while it would be predictable, at least it wouldn't be as stupid.
>>
>>46086232
That's assuming she's equally capable of resolving both of those issues herself (or rather, that she believes she's equally capable or resolving both).
>>
>>46085598
>Nahiri is playing a shitty memetic boros land destroy
>Sorin reveals his weapon, brought from khans abzan memerange and genocides her
>>
>>46077980
It's a horrible control finisher. Finishers and six mana cards are supposed to win you the game. New Sorin is absolute trash for everything outside of edh. Which is a format that gets away with expensive cards that don't necessarily directly do much. Which is why it's the best format.
