Because so many requested it, heres a place to talk about all the spoilers that don't deserve threads of their own.
Ulamog + Sedris, the Traitor King= A ton of hurt. Sad I won't get the cast trigger though. :/

ducttapedeckbox - I think it's because they don't want people having access to a Flash 4/4 with a Murder attached. I'm willing to bet that most of the Awaken cards will be sorceries, with Green and Blue getting a few Instants with Awaken.

Am I the only one that thinks he looks kind of different? In this art he seems a lot more... epic.
New Ulamog also doesn't ave the graveyard clause so you can reanimate him!!!
August 29, 2015 9:57 p.m. Edited.
It has devoured half of Zendikar so I'd assume it's more powerful.

ducttapedeckbox It would just be strictly better Hero's Downfall if it were an instant...

well the new one he looks more in control while in the older he looks all "whooo look what I can do, oooooo fear me ~(0.0~)"
August 29, 2015 9:58 p.m.
it's a different artist, so he'll have a different take. The same basic forms are there. The weird faceless helmet, the bifurcated arms, and the chestplate.

That's what I figured as well, JWiley129. As a control player, I'm not a fan of Awaken. I'm hoping for my instant-speed removal :)

Yeah, at first sight it looked like he grew two more arms and a bunch of tentacles, but you can also see that in the old art, it just doesn't stand out as much in the old one.
August 29, 2015 10:02 p.m.
ducttapedeckbox - I would imagine, as a control player, you would LOVE Ruinous Path. It's a Hero's Downfall in the early game, and a win-condition + Removal in the late game. Sure it's Sorcery speed, but it's great!

Maybe I'm tired and not seeing it, I'll have to play around with it before I'm convinced. Early game I'd rather Instant speed removal to hold up counter magic, and late game I'd rather drop Ugin for one more mana. Maybe I'm just being stupid.
On another note, the overall art quality for this set. Damn. I can't wait to see the lands.

What more can they spoil? There's one card on my wishlist:
An eldrazi that when it CIP's, it returns some number of your RFG'd cards to your graveyard.
I would use and abuse that thing to hell.
Also, I hope there's no pseudo-shocklands. If the new lands are...oh well.

lol. See the Unwritten I KNEW this card would be good. Why didn't I buy a ton?
August 29, 2015 10:26 p.m.
This is the art of the three Eldrazi titans as the "Gods" of Zendikar. Pretty sweet imo.
August 29, 2015 10:40 p.m.
Non-game related, but ART BOOK!
Art from all the Zendikar sets.
August 29, 2015 10:44 p.m.
Old ulamog is standing on his tentacles. The new one is crawling or in an attack position.

Gideon is very good. Spoilers today have been impressive. Zen hype!
August 29, 2015 10:50 p.m.
Btw, Gideon is super good in Control shells or as an Aggro top-end. He has a 0 that protects himself? Seriously? It's Standard playable.
August 29, 2015 10:57 p.m.
IvoryFrost says... #29
per order price of him are going to be like...30. Maybe more.
August 29, 2015 10:59 p.m.
IvoryFrost - I'd put my money on $50 for Gideon preorders

Almost all of these creatures have different p&t. Gilt-Leaf Winnower will see a lot of play.

FULL ART FETCH LANDSOH MY GOD I'M GOING OT HAVE A HEART ATTACK!!!
August 29, 2015 11:15 p.m.
A few weeks ago there was a thread where someone totally called the Ulamog and dual lands and everyone gave him crap. Well, here we are. Well done person who I forget with your solid information.

Holy shit, the expeditions will also include shocks and fetches.....wow
August 29, 2015 11:15 p.m.
Alright, so, question: will there be only one basic land each, or will there be 4 each like normal?
August 29, 2015 11:16 p.m.
Phaetion - there will probably be 3-4 of each basic like in Zendikar block.
August 29, 2015 11:17 p.m.

OMG THAT FETCH AND THAT SHOCK
Words cannot express my happiness.
August 29, 2015 11:18 p.m.
IvoryFrost says... #49
so all the shock, fetches and now these new lands will be legal for a bit longer
holy fuuuuck....
August 29, 2015 11:18 p.m.
I hope so. Because I had the intention of collecting certain full arts.
I am now praying for those New duals to be enemy-colored in the next set.

Why does Ruinous Path have to be a Sorcery D:
