The fat packs have 80 of them in it. Don't listen to anyone that tries to tell you they're limited supply, they have basically unlimited of them at Target, Walmart, etc.
Not yet. October 2nd is when BFZ will be available in stores.
Yeah, they were always easy to find at walmart or target in the past. I have no need for these lands but it's not expensive for one fat pack.
Cool, I'm assuming this is the first for this set? I haven't been following at all.
You didn't miss anything, this is our first thread on OT*, though you did miss all the activity in the Community threads.

I'm already betting that one of the four will dieThe second set has been announced as OATH OF THE GATEWATCH
It's basically Zendikari Power Rangers.
So is this one of those Yu-Gi-Oh ripoffs?
Showing up in the next block. (Very good chance it's Fairy Tale World.)Why no Liliana in the pic?
I'm already betting that one of the four will dieand it'll probably be Gideon
They've already shown the other 2 demons in Magic Duels. Razaketh and Belzenlok.Showing up in the next block. (Very good chance it's Fairy Tale World.)
edit: You know, if it is, I bet that's why they've hinted the male/female Demon/Angel thing may be relaxed, you can do a Malificent stand-in for one of Liliana's masters.

Ah, ok.They've already shown the other 2 demons in Magic Duels. Razaketh and Belzenlok.
It was originally done because of male Angels being in the bible and Succubuses being omnipresent, but the issue is that doing it 100% that way then feeds straight into the "Girls are pure and virtuous/Boys are uncontrollable hellspawn" trope.When did they hint this? Either way, I never understood why Magic split these creatures types along these genders. Female Demons and Male Angels are all over every type of fantasy setting from like every corner of the world. Magic is the only place I know of where this strict gender dichotomy exists.
It's just a style choice. The same way they differentiate the appearance of drakes and dragons (dragons have arms in addition to their wings, drakes don't).When did they hint this?

Also, drakes are beasts whereas dragons are sentient, no?It's just a style choice. The same way they differentiate the appearance of drakes and dragons (dragons have arms in addition to their wings, drakes don't).
They just killed a white Planeswalker, I don't think they'll make the next death white too. None of the four are likely to die, but if I had to choose one, I'd actually go with Jace--the latest Uncharted Realms had him constantly imagining himself dying.I'm already betting that one of the four will dieand it'll probably be Gideon
Why no Liliana in the pic?
So I started playing magic last year, around m15 - one year anniversary coming up yay! Got into it after destiny put a sour taste in my mouth and needed a break from vg's. Can't believe it took me so long to get into it, especially with a heavy background in fighters and a crew of friends who have been playing since alpha and beta. I love this shit. So excited for bfz, its my understandimg zendikar is an iconic set. Im baaically just playing standard aside from a couple decks and I look forward to all this landfall and eldrazi goodness.
Hope we get goblin guide.....
Nice to see the MTG thread let out of the cage for a little while.

Haha, fucking dying. Nissa's redesign is nice, I hated the one used for the first Duels game. I preferred Jace with a hood, but a friend told me its been that way for a while now (and was pure anime hair for a while what.)The second set has been announced as OATH OF THE GATEWATCH
It's basically Zendikari Power Rangers.
Yeah, I subbed for the card spoilers since I love the Zendikar lore (tribal vampires + elder god esque bullshit oh my.) My gf has also been watching that G&S series and wants to get into ccgs and tabletop but $$$It's really nice to see all the new faces in the thread so far. We'll be moving back to Community a little while after the set releases so make sure to subscribe to the thread.

I'm fine with Jace dying. Give us literally any other mono-U character who's more interesting
Per MaRo, zero chance of that happening.I'm fine with Jace dying. Give us literally any other mono-U character who's more interesting

Their other recent Gideon attempt(s?) haven't gone well, they wanted him pushed and pushed hard.I haven't played MTG in about 10 years so there might have been a massive power creep since then, but this seems horribly overpowered holy shit:

This is something to be aware of- while long term prices for singles will be abnormally low, short term shortages and price spikes could very well happen due to people buying up product because of the ultra-raresStu Somers ‏@ssomers55 4m4 minutes ago
I think people are not realizing that I think BFZ product will be super hard to get a hold of at different points this fall
Look up Jace, the Mind Sculptor.

No. MaRo's said they'll just do a different Japanese world if they go back to that type of setting. (I'd rather see them fast-forward it into the future, but apparently they don't want to piss off people who expect stuff returning from the OG block.)Did they ever revisit Kamigawa? The sets were terrible but the concept and the art were awesome.

I assume this means something much more Anime than before (in themes, not art style.) Hi, Shinigami!
I really like the art and setting for this one.
The creature designs are quite out there. Kinda like the difference between Torment: Tides of Numenera weird vs. Pillars of Eternity tried-n-true.

Origins was so noticeably and horribly off because of how good and consistent they have gotten in general.I have some complaints about the art style in recent years, but when it comes to the actual content Magic has some of the best fantasy art conceptually period. Did you see any of the New Phyrexia stuff? They did straight up Giger body horror for that set
What all have we worked out as likely upcoming blocks? Fairy tale world, New New Phyrexia, Kaladesh, Muraganda... Really curious how much of a streak we can get going.
