In an article written by Doug Beyer, we get to see what our friendly Planeswalkers are up to these days. We get to see that Koth is still alive and fighting, and a lot of Walkers have the Eldrazi on their minds. We also see more talk of the Black Mana that is cursing Garruk and driving him to hunt other Planeswalkers. Thoughts?

The main thing to take out of that article...

"...Koth managed to escape into the bowels of the Furnace Layer with his life."

....

He lives!

I hate Warhammer and Warhammer 40k Lore so much. Everything is a stalemate for over twenty years now.

It's nice to see the magic storylines moving forward and expeding canon.

I expect a lot from Tibalt and Domri from now on. Both of them are new to the whole planeswalking business and seeing them grow as characters (and cards) seems like an amazing thing to look forward to.

Glad to see that Koth is alive!

I'm also wondering what will happen to Garruk. Will the curse get to the point where he looses complete control and some of the others have to kill him to stop him? He is one of my favorite walkers, and I'd hate to see him get killed off.

Nah I imagine he'll do something huge that ends up throwing a wrench into the plans of some of the planewalkers that mean ill.

Poor Venser, the Sojourner .. he paid the ultimate sacrifice only to have Karn Liberated be played more then him.

Garruk wants to hunt "Gig game" and is setting his sights on Planeswalkers...

Who else but Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker is worthy of his hunting abilities?

Just before Bolas completes his ultimate, as of yet unknown, plan... Sarkhan will convince Garruk to kill Bolas... the epic battle ends with both of their destruction, along with a few others who have come to assist Garruk for this greater purpose.

This, of course, is 20-30 yeas from now... Wizards knows they sell more cards while Nicol Bolas is still alive, and his story line continues.

Garruk couldn't beat Liliana, how can he even stand one upkeep against Lord Bolas?

i feel Wotc should introduce like an elder planeswalker that is the opposite WGU as an opposite from Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker that would provide guidance to other planeswalkers and be too old to fight but can use supporting spells....what you guys think?

did anyone notice that Venser, the Sojourner is holding a Darksteel Plate helmet?

No he's not, just because he is holding a plate helm doesn't mean it is the helm from Darksteel Plate . It isn't the right color, doesn't have the correct shaped eye holes and doesn't have the embossing from Darksteel Plate. Venser is also wearing a set of spaulders that closely match the design of the helm he is holding and they are obviously not the shoulder pieces of Darksteel Plate

I hope we see Sorin Take down Liliana before she becomes "free"I like Sorin as an anti hero in Innistrad

I want Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas to be completed by the Phyrexians and become the new Yawgmoth. Then I want him to knock Ajani and Jace down a peg or two. Choir boys....
