I wish they would print a decent modern Zombify, Reanimate and Exhume are broken but 4 mana for the effect is too much
Not a fan of Goryo's Vengeance?
I think I'm going to try cubing Dragonlord Silumgar, seems better than the chaff I have for Dimir (Far//Away or Nightveil Specter or Duskmantle Seer, plus Tezz who won't be leaving ever probably). Boy do I want them to reprint Shadowmage Infiltrator in the new border. :/
(or reprint Psychatog/Baleful Strix in a Modern legal set)
Goryo's only works with Elesh Norn and Griselbrand, I wanted something to reanimate my green and artifact fatties.

I don't understand why Tribal isn't a supertype. Why can't Bitterblossom can't have the subtype "Faerie" without the Tribal type and just be "Enchantment - Faerie" and/or why can't it just be a supertype if they want that type of card to ever matter.
Types have to have a unique list of subtypes. Supertypes don't have subtypes. In order for a non-creature spell to have creature subtypes, they needed to make a type that shares all subtypes with creature. And so, Tribal.

That sounds super flimsy. I'm not seeing why an Instant can't have a subtype "Goblin." If the problem is really "Changelings can tap for green because Dryad Arbor," just say Forest is a unique type to a land.
It's a future-proofing mechanism. If types don't have unique subtypes, you could get things like having a non-land creature with the island subtype and give it the ability to tap for U. Or when they add new subtypes for different types that have rules baggage (like Aura, Equipment, Arcane, etc.) it keeps things nice and neat. Having all changelings be equipment aura arcane gates in addition to all the normal creature types gets messy.
That's basically what they do, but with every subtype. "These subtypes are unique to creatures; these ones unique to lands," etc.

They're not blue?
Subtypes are limited to individual card types. A supertype can't change that because then writing the rules to make sure you never get weird stuff like creatures with basic land types is a huge pain in the ass.
Was hoping to get some Legacy practice at EE2 for the invitational later this month until my whole car bailed on me. Hate living so far away from mtg society that driving alone is just too expensive. (ya I'm aware some of you live in the far corners of the world but this is my QQ moment)

Do we get the full spoiler today? Or will it come on Monday?
Think it's today.
Oops, I meant Fate. I'm always bad with set names. I don't know if I like that only because from what I understand, pulling a fetch in FTR has a lower percentage than pulling one in Khans.

Yep, it's up now:
http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-image-gallery/dragonsoftarkir#
Another Savannah Lions for my Peasant cube. Now I have more of this effect that I might ever need.
Oh sweet Limited removal:

Hah - Polymorph with Rebound (can't do it to your own guys sadly).
Here's that counterspell. Can't reprint Dismiss? Come on guys.

Okay, this card is really interesting.
No Distortion Strike; instead you get this:
More Limited Removal. It looks like they may have gotten the message that the set is going to need reasonable removal options:
What a weird card!
Now this is a Lava Axe!
Hehe. This guy was (mostly) unchanged it seems.

Still a one for one card exchange if you do it right and you're still going to have all your mana and all your cards. And if they don't have that one answer? Get rekt'd
Oh, shit. This with Suprise Dragonkiller or whatever with Mastery? lol
OH MAN MONOWHITNING SO HARD

This lets you play a land at INSTANT speed?
I'm wondering what the biggest blowout on camera will be with that over it's standard life.

I'm struck by the number of cards with simple effects and simple card names. If I didn't know better, I'd say they were planting cards for a core set.

Zephyr Scribe is absurd.
Anyway, just doing a quick glance at the obvious playables, there's actually quite a bit coming to Standard:
Red seems like a huge winner here.
This isn't counting the loads of cards that could go either way, or are in completely new decks. Risen Executioner could be busted in the right shell. Even Living Lore. Damnable Pact. There are a surprising number of borderline playables just waiting to get cracked.
There's also exactly one card in particular that I'm looking at for modern that you might not expect...

Exactly how that works. Lets a few of your Warriors go unblocked in most cases.
Warior deck got a got buff here in this edition, secure the wastes, blood chin reager, arashin foremost, maybe anafenza, and for the sideboard that card which has protection against dragons and can block them
Savage Knuckleblade is added to the list of dead things in this timeline:
Dead in story, dead in standard.

Before everyone gets too excited about mono tokens
If I made a black deck, that would probably be in my sideboard every time (outside of switching to it).

Scale Blessing.. Holy hell I need this for my G/W counters deck. Bolster Phalanx Leader, everyone gets a counter, then an additional counter. Heck, I'm liking a lot of these G/W cardd
I'm reading a lot of good counter/control cards in a sense with all the "Spells cost X more"
Living Lore, if not dealt with, could be nice in a Control Shell. Play a bomb instant, then living lore, have it deal damage, recast that spell without Mana cost.
