Temple of Abandon has been abandoned.

Between this having affinity for enchantments, and that one other card that's Thirst for Knowledge but for enchantments, I feel like a bunch of blue commons got lost on their way to original Mirrodin block, and when they showed up in THB, they just changed "artifact" to "enchantment&q...

So Smiting Helix is Gruul now?

Dune-Brood Smiting Helix when, WotC?

I'm just wondering what's up with the posing of Elspeth's hands. She looks like an action figure who's missing her accessories.

Even the original Ravnica block had a cycle of cards that counted lands of a specific basic land type.

It had two: Flow of Ideas and Crash Landing. Not a cycle.

Elspeth's new spear reminds me of the spear Kriemhild from Fire Emblem.

Oh, and the red-haired woman is...Jeska? Or possibly Karona, given she has both Jeska's blade (from her Phage half) and the Dream Chisel (from her Akroma half)?

That's not a dream chisel. It's just the club/mace Jeska had in her original art.

So... Twilight Sparkle ability is actually unachievable unless they print 4 more cards?

They don't have a page for all the alternate art/border cards, do they?

They do. There's a link at the top of the image gallery to it.

Couldn't you just use scuttlemut in your untap step?

Players don't get priority during the untap step, so no.

My bad. Back in ye olden days, you could. I think. Now i'm doubting myself.

Back before Sixth Edition, the rules were all kinds of weird, so I wouldn't be surprised.

Didn't Say Please has some powerful meme potential.

Fun fact: The way intervening if-clauses work the ability won't even go onto the stack unless you already have the condition at the beginning of your upkeep, so the only reason you need to activate these after the ability is on the stack is after an opponent removed a color condition in response to...

Also where's the food legend?

It's possible that Korvold is meant to be the food legend.

Free ramp is good and all, but this nonetheless feels less exciting than the rest of the cycle.

Rhys is more than happy to run a second Vitu-Ghazi, the City-Tree.

GW seems to be the food-matter color pair,

We haven't gotten any foodstuffs in white yet. If anything, black is the other food color.

True Love's Kiss can do some silly things, flavorwise.

Like, it turns out, first-basing it with a god of Theros makes them bail on you.

Is that a pair of Goldenglow Moths that Beloved Princess is following?

Also, I never knew how much I wanted the type line "food golem" until now.

Forget power creep. This is bearfight creep.

It's clearly just a photo of driftwood.

Comparable to Desecration Demon, though drawing a card is a way better consolation prize than a +1/+1 counter.

My zombie EDH appreciates a kill spell that counts as a zombie.

Changelings are now mouse rats.
