I would have to guess that these are the 5 exclusives:
Borborygmos
Ghost Council of Orzhov
Grand Arbiter Augustin IV
Momir Vig, Simic Visionary
Rakdos the Defiler
These are the five guild leaders from the original Ravnica block.
I assume these 5 are the RT exclusive rewards:
Experiment Kraj
Isperia the Inscrutable
Lyzolda, the Blood Witch
Teysa, Orzhov Scion
Ulasht, the Hate Seed
These are the five guild champions from the original Ravnica block.
Same as how they did it with the GRN paid and RT exclusives.
The other Teysa and Rakdos should both be available in regular packs.
Unfortunately Turn to Frog was not a troll card, but a very useful tool for those “destroy X or more creatures” & "lose X or more creatures"objectives. Incongruity is useless unfortunately for all those scenarios, and would’ve been a beautiful addition for green otherwise.
This being said, green now has some strong creature removal in standard, in the form of Incongruity and Assassin’s Trophy. Blue already has so much unconditional bounce it’s not even relevant in my opinion.
In my opinion here are going to be the relevant standard cards (for current meta):
Commons - Final Payment. Undercity’s Embrace is also super accessible premium removal in black.
Uncommons - Consume, Incongruity (first exile creature in green), Mortify (dealing with enchantments can be quite relevant as it bypasses artifacts, treasures and all that madness)
Rares - Angelic Exaltation (those March decks only got “worse”), Bedevil (for red), Hydroid Krasis (nice pseudo-Nissa’s Revelation on a stick), Warrant (more fun removal for white… so many choices already), Awaken the Erstwhile (if you haven’t already thought of a deck combo with Mistbinder… you should)
Mythic Rares - Angel of Grace (remember Avacyn? how about you get prevent damage for a turn too?), Emergency Powers (this completes the cycle of mythic card draws for white), End-Raze Forerunners (in case you wanted more for your March deck), High Alert (this + Gishath + Arcades = broken), Rampage of the Clans (finally green is king of support removal once again), Rakdos Ravnica (time for a demon deck, that connect clause is delicious).
Depending on how it plays out, Mirror March and Rakdos RNA might also be fun (similar repeated effect I can’t predict how good will end up being). Experiment Kraj might also end up being scary.
Masterpieces - Biovisionary screams to be abused, Cryptborn Horror might turn out to be pretty powerful, Moratorium Stone looks like the best colorless guild support, Killer Instinct looks pretty fun too (one free Djinn every turn? Sarkhan might like that)
Removal definitely got pumped up this set, burn remains just as horrible, reduced combo degenerate potential and some brain-teasing cards. All in all a fair set that should shine even more post-rotation.
Now get rid of that silly timer so we can all get back to playing with all this!
I am more or less interested in the new set. This game is on the edge. It depends if or how a LPS is implemented.
What a shame after three years. But more time and money for other and maybe more rewarding hobbies. Maybe I try this pokemon thing. I think it’s more competitive now than this pile of nonsense.
But how beta… know wich card is exclusive and you don’t? Isn’t it embarrassing to get surpassed by third party in communication issues? But maybe they are totally wrong. They only have 9 MP in this set.
Edit: oh the fixed something within hours. Now 10 MP.
The card preview gallery shows (or at least I assume it does) which cards are exclusive when you hover over them (or tap on mobile). I just used a little common sense and knowledge of the original Ravnica block to come to this conclusion myself. No need to slam Brigby because we’re mad about the LPS debacle.
Oh btw, ravnica allegiance is full of cards that require other cards to trigger, such as something happening when you lose reinforcements and a LOT of activated gems and triggers…
That won’t resolve due to your gosh darned timer!
You are releasing a set, together with a timer that makes the set unplayable!!!
I just pull my info directly from the card preview. It’s not that I’m better informed, I just take the data that was made public (and make it… public?) and I play fast & loose with it (In fact - the card preview has Evolution Vat listed with Experiment Kral’s details - @Brigby: have a look at that!) Please don’t fault our CM for doing his due diligence in confirming information before sending it to players. His is an official voice and must be as precise and as accurate as possible. Mine is far from it.
You are right. But I always like your site so much more then offical card galleries and they is precisely enough for me. So thank you lot for all your efforts!
I wonder why d3 did not make it that way. It is already working ingame and not everybody using fakebook.
I just remember one set that met card vault pre-release. Why not every set?
