The Core Set 2020 Card Gallery is now live.
We will keep everyone posted on when the update is planned to go live this week. Thanks!
Will Lavinia and Leyline of Lifeforce cause an infinite loop, much the way Ethereal Absolution and Murder Investigation did? One card drains mana, the other puts it right back, etc.?
Was really hoping the Leylines would cost 0 on your first turn, but they seem pretty okay.
Is there a way to consolidate the new vanguards? They’re kind of a chore to make sense of.
Which cards will be the exclusives of the set please?
What does Mox Tantalite transform into?
The cards that are exclusive are labeled in the album but here you go with the list too.
Primeval Titan
Sun Titan
Frost Titan
Grave Titan
Inferno Titan
Leyline of Lifeforce
Leyline of Punishment
Leyline of Singularity
Leyline of the Meek
Leyline of Vitality
Is there any way we can get card galleries outside of Facebook? I have always hated Facebook and everything it stands for and will never be apart of it, but I would love to be able to view the new card galleries.
Will all the Vanguards only be in the vault packs or will all or some also end up in the normal booster packs?
I second the motion to be able to view outside of Facebook. Not for the above reasons, but the fact that I can’t stand how the gallery is laid out on Facebook.
You wouldn’t know by chance which will be cash exclusives and which are event exclusives?
Normally mythics are cash and rares will be event. So titan would be cash I expect
Good eye! I’ll pass that along to QA to review. Thanks!
Tomik plus lotus field is another infinite loop if you dont control another land. Lotus field comes into play and destroys itself, tomik returns lotus field to play, rinse repeat.
I know Brigby said they would keep us posted when the update is planned to go live, and I’m just saying tomorrow is Wednesday. So . . . it can’t be too far out to let us know which day at this point right?
Thanks! I’ve passed that along to QA to review as well.
It typically depends on when we submit the build and when it gets approved by 1st party. I’m happy to say though that the build has been approved, and we are on track for release day to be tomorrow!
woooooooooooooooooooo!
Just to add another few (potentially) infinite interactions introduced by M20 to the list in case one or more may be unintended:
-
Elvish Reclaimer + Lotus Field may form a similar loop to Tomik + Lotus Field (or the current Tomik + Mirrorpool behavior with certain spells) if a deck contains no other supports
-
Kethis + Experimental Frenzy (only players would be able to utilize this if it turns out to be infinite, as the AI appears never to exile cards)
-
Marauding Raptor with several cards or combinations of cards (possibly not an exhaustive list):
-
Graf Harvest
-
Murder Investigation
-
Reassembling Skeleton
-
Relentless Dead
-
Sanctifier of Souls
-
Despoiler of Souls + Elfhame Druid (similar to the current interaction these two cards have with Sarkhan’s Unsealing)
No worries on Kethis I think. Card states that “when you exile a card from your hand”… Frenzy bypasses the exiling part, so you’d just be tossing cards in the GY. I tried that combo with Enhanced Surveillance, and it does not trigger when you “exile” a card from your hand when Frenzy is out.
Thanks for this info! I’ll pass it along to QA for review.
As for the Kethis + Experimental Frenzy combo, I just did a quick test of that on a QA build, and it doesn’t seem to create any infinite loop. This supports @boopers observation that the card is being treated as discarded into the graveyard, as opposed to exiled.
Thank you for taking a moment to test this out. Good to hear that it doesn’t create an infinite loop.
