Unreleased and New Card Discussion

[TheGildedGoose]

Eldraine. The seven heads is kind out there but its laying golden coins and is giant sized playing on the Jack and the Beanstalk story of Jack stealing a hen who lays golden eggs from a giant couple along with the fables of the goose who laid the golden eggs. If not Eldraine only other place it could be would be Ikoria.

Could this be...

Mother Goose?!

[Sporegorger_Dragon]

Massive preview.

A lot of Doctors! The Doctors and their companions are wild Commander material.

And a surprising number of cards from Eldraine, they preview the only planeswalker of the set too.

Ixalan had some spectacular art previewed, that's all, no cards.

Wilds of Eldraine previews!

• Restless Fortress suggests we're getting a new manland cycle. I think Shambling Vent is a bit better, but it's reasonable.
• Talion, the Kindly Lord is an interesting punisher card. I wonder what the best number is - probably depends on the table.
• Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator has alright activated abilities... but the passive is definitely interesting. There are probably some silly things you can do when your life total is no longer a limiting resource for Necropotence / etc.
• Cruel Somnophage suggests we're getting more adventure cards, this time multicolor.
• Moonshaker Cavalry is a white Craterhoof Behemoth (minus haste). White doesn't have any Tooth and Nail effects, so it's a bit harder to cheat out... but you could always just try to reanimate it.
• Enchantment bonus sheet art is gorgeous, and we're getting reprints of stuff like Smothering Tithe (at mythic) and Rhystic Study (at rare). That strongly suggests the set will have an enchantment theme.

Orzhov decks are really gonna enjoy reanimating the craterhoof beheMoth I think.

[RedCheese]

I wished these cards wasn't Dr Who themed....

that sound you heard was the cry of people holding to Doubling Season for it's money value

[Sporegorger_Dragon]

A goose clue appears:

She also appears on the other variant image. Imagine if the art from the main set is also just for Doubling Season.

Wait, maybe they're taking advantage of Ashiok being the only planeswalker in the set to reprint Doubling Season in Standard???

The bonus slot cards are not Standard-legal (note that Necropotence is also in that slot).

On the new Smothering Tithe, there is a reference to 'The Goose Mother', which seems like a likely card name.

Mother Goose?!

On the new Smothering Tithe, there is a reference to 'The Goose Mother', which seems like a likely card name.

NAILED IT! (well, almost)

Still, seeing as all variants prominently feature the Goose Mother, there is still a chance that the art shown will be for a Doubling Season in the main set as a one-off (or am I just spouting nonsense? ).

[TheGildedGoose]

I just hope it isn't mono-green. Goose God, don't let it be mono-green.

[BeneTleilax]

I believe we already have its art, from Maro's teaser

[Mookie]

I just hope it isn't mono-green. Goose God, don't let it be mono-green.

There are two birds on Eldraine so far, and the more relevant one is mono-green, so....

...now I sort of hope the card is just monogreen with '1g, : create a Gilded Goose token'.

[5colorsrainbow]

@Mookie the Twitter post these are from do say we are getting another enemy color land set (flavor being in a world asleep the lands have awaken), there will multicolor adventures but not all adventures will be multicolored.

Also of note; Ashiok will be the only planeswalker, the new default for PW cards will be one per set to help them feel more special

Also each of the color pair set archetypes for Eldraine will be themed around a fairy tale with the ones shown being; WU - snow queen, UB - Sleeping Beauty, RG- little red riding hood, WB- Snow White, BG- Hansel and Gretel and UG- Jack and the Beanstalk.

I love love love fairy tale stuff, I got a minor in folkloristics and I'm very tempted to make 10 new decks based on the draft archetypes.

EDIT: Also my adventure deck and food deck are gonna get some more goodies, excited.

[RxPhantom]

I really like the look of the 'regular' Enchanting Tales, but these other ones...

I guess I'm just tired of all things anime and our community's preoccupation with it.

[RedCheese]

Im an anime enjoyer, but i think these anime alts with anime girls or "waifus" (god my stomach for saying that word) is kinda cringy.

[NZB2323]

So it looks like white is getting their Craterhoof Behemoth with Moonshaker Cavalry.

On the other side of the coin, every time they print an anime set I'm tempted to build an anime only art theme deck. Narset, Parter of Veils|50957 is one of my favorite arts in the game.

i've controlled my wallet so well during these past two years but every spoiled card for the new Eldraine looks like exactly my thing. Tough Cookie gave me like 7,777 ideas as soon as I read it

What's it offering that Alloy Animist isn't? Is the food token really exciting enough to make it better than limited fodder?

[folding_music]

Alloy Animist is a human, ugggh, who'd add one of those to a deck

Its a double dip, its also in commander masters, but douboing season holds value no matter what

Tough Cookie goes into wordplay/pun.dec along with Honor Troll and Hostile Hostel // Creeping Inn and so many others I cannot think of right now.
