All creatures lose indestructible until end of turn
Destroy all creatures
My thoughts: Unless WoTC decided to go back on their word that all unconditional board wipes will be CMC of 5 or more, this is fake
This has been going around for days and has been confirmed as fake.

CheeseBro Never thought about the story spotlight angle.

No but the commander cards are coming out, some crazy 5 color dragons

Also, I think it's weird that a card would have the same name as the set that it's in. It doesn't make any sense.

The name is the giveaway, as Iron_Cube noted. They'd never make a card with the name of the set, and so far they've never used Feature Art on a card. Not to mention the expansion symbol looks off, and I personally think it'd be Mythic rarity. Also, Bolas made the gods and they're really the only indestructible things we've seen besides Gideon and Ulamog, and I doubt Bolas will be killing his gods this set.
It would be a fun thing to do a competition for Custom Card makers to design a card they think will be in an upcoming set and the T/O community can vote on closest one. Anyone think that'd be interesting and something people would want to do?

All the other tells aside, this card is simply too powerful. Maybe eventually something like this could be printed, but it would be after a long power creep, or for a lot more mana.

On top of all the the other points made already, wotc have said that they will make cards that are less powerful than their previous versions ex:Damnation cause if you look at this fake card next to Damnation its clear which card you would want to play and that's not gonna happen. According to wotc

Jimmy_Chinchila They did that years ago. Forgotten Ancient and Crucible of Worlds came from a contest where players submitted suggestions on what the card will be, then players vote on the most popular ones

Vanish into Memory and Waste Not were also designed by the community.

Above everything, the grammar is wrong. That might be enough to prove it to be fake.

FAAAAKE
a card like that would definitely be a story spotlight card. Also, the art is the feature art, which is never used on cards in standard legal sets.
