I know that it's an Uncommon because it's going to appear in multiple decks, but this just seems really out of place with a silver expansion symbol
That would totally be standard playable.

And it's a benefit if you have creatures with -1/-1 counters on them.
Pretty interesting card.

So they opened a sample pack of the upcoming MTGO Legendary Cube on the Command Zone podcast. The full list comes out on Monday, but this gives you a feel for it - and it's weird:
Orim, Samite Healer
Mirri the Cursed
Urabrask the Hidden
Thrun, the Last Troll
Hanna, Ship's Navigator
Kaervek the Merciless
Ruric Thar, the Unbowed
Captain Sisay (windmill slam)
Stomping Ground
Graven Cairns
Dreadship Reef
Chromatic Lantern
Champion's Helm
Honden of Seeing Winds
March of the Machines (WTF?)

Wonder what sort of breakdown they have on gold vs non gold cards, because that pack seems super multicolor

Nothing, I'm wondering why you weren't clear on it already.
I listened to the Magic the Ameraturing Podcast the other day and they interviewed Adam Prosak about the Legendary Cube. New info:
Great mana fixing and ramp (land & artifact)
Few traditional aggressive strategies (say goodbye to Mono-Red)
Heavy on multicolor cards
Artifact Matters & Spells Matter are supported archetypes
Lots of Modal Spells
Few Clones
Few cheat spells, focus on casting cards
Cards like Daretti, Bosh, Vorinclex, Brothers Yamazaki (two copies), Noyan Dar, Sheoldred, Shizo Death's Storehouse, Fires of Yavimaya, Saffi Ericsdaughter, Tatsumatsu the Dragon Fang, Creul Utimatum, Silumgar's Command, Sword of the Chosen, and Animar Soul of Elements are included.
Prize boosters have sets like Cospiracy, Planechase, Commander Sets in them. 1 Rare or Mythic, 5 uncommons for 6 cards per prize pack.
Was looking through some old cards and came across Invoke Prejudice, and after reading through it a few times, had a few rules questions I was hoping someone might know the answers to.
1. I have no creatures in play - my understanding is that the effect triggers on any creatures the opponent plays?
2. I have a Red/Black creature in play - will the effect trigger on anything except a Red OR Black creature, or will if trigger on anything that isn't Red/Black.
3. Alternatively, if I have a Red creature in play - will the effect trigger on a Red/Black creature?
4. How does the card work with colourless / artifact creatures?

The card in question
FYI, according to the Gatherer comments, the artist is a nutjob that draws a lot of racist and Nazi-inspired art. This is why they need to bring back comments in Gatherer.
Anyway,
1. Indeed, costs are doubled for your opponents if you have no creatures.
2. No colors can match for it to be triggered. If you have a red/black creature out, red/blue and black/green creatures pass through with no problem.
3. See above.
4. All colorless creatures your opponents cast have their costs doubled.

I wonder when they'll make a "counter" that says "exile target instant or sorcery spell" or "put target instant or sorcery into its owner's graveyard", thereby circumventing "can't be countered' effects.
I assume the former is easier to implement than the latter, but also way better.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I'm surprised you guys weren't aware of Harold McNeill. Dude is a huge racist and yeah, that card is meant to evoke it.
Not only is there Mindbreak Trap, there's several things that just return it to your hand like Brutal Expulsion or Venser.

Oh yeah forgot that one, to be fair though I searched for "target" not "any" beforehand
Why isn't this played in legacy, I'd imagine it'd be decent sideboard tech against a bunch of decks. Worst case could just pitch it to force of will, is flusterstorm just strictly better?
I know of those but they just delays it.
If you consider things that end the turn, then you always have Time Stop as well to exile everything on the stack.

There's an interesting story where someone in latin america added retreats to coralhelm to his zoo deck playing knight of the reliquary. He made top 4 in the Grand Prix over there, which had 16 Wild Nacatls.

Hopefully, there are what 4-5 cards left to spoil and the product comes out in a week.
Yeah, but we still have like 250 reprints to know, right?

Yeah, we brewed with that card a lot when it got spoiled. A deck like that also top 8d an SCG Legacy Open a couple of weeks ago.

Yeah Knightfall Retreat, love the name.
If only there weren't goyfs in the list I could have afforded Ink-Treader Zoo, he only played 2 Retreats though making it so he'd just occasionally combo off.
When we were brewing with Retreat to Coralhelm I maintained that splashing blue for a few copies is all you need. Once you go full-on combo, you have to ask yourself if you're doing anything better that other combo decks can't do already. Coralhelm is a good Plan B for a deck with a mostly successful Plan A to begin with. Big Zoo did pretty well last weekend at the major Modern events.

Primeval Titan remains the only titan not being printed in a commander deck

He's banned, so it would be kinda weird to reprint it there.
