It looks like whatever that new Dual-Land type Maro was talking is pictured there. I can't quite make it out, but it looks like a / dual.

Pretty sure the land shown in that immage is Stirring Wildwood

I'm pretty sure that's Stirring Wildwood

Looks like Stirring Wildwood, so I don't think those pics are revealing anything about the new set.

This just looks like the back to the Duel Deck. At least they're reprinting one of the Worldwake man-lands in a reasonable product.

And I can't really read the other cards well, but is that a Ally?

EDIT: Also, that's definitely a new art Primal Command for the Zendikar deck.

EDIT PART DUEX: Also, looks like a new art for Consume the Meek.

August 17, 2015 1:03 a.m. Edited.

This is definitely the best looking duel deck I've seen since I've started playing magic and its not even spoiled fully yet!

It says right on the box that there's cards from throughout history.

It also says that there's two spindown life counters. That's new for duel decks.

So we've already figured out four of the cards shown. What are the other two? There's a decent chance that there's a new card on there.

The Top card on the left seems to be new. It looks like it's got / equal to the number of ____ you control. I think the blank is creatures. It isn't small enough for the word to be Allies. The typeline, I believe, is Human Soldier Ally, but I'm not positive about the soldier. I think I can also make out the second ability giving itself Vigilance and Trample until end of turn, but I can't figure out what triggers it.

As to the top card of the right pile, it seems to be the first multicolored Eldrazi Drone. Unfortunately I can't make out any of the text, other than it having two abilities, one static (top line) and one with a colorless mana cost and no tap symbol. I looks like the name is "___ of Judgement" and it costs BR.

Anyone else able to do any better or disagree with what I'm seeing?

on a reddit thread someone pointed out that the eldrazi costs R/B and has a keyword that says (this creature is colorless.) not 100% thats what it is but it seems possible.

August 17, 2015 1:38 a.m.

__fense says... #14

That explains the Eldrazi Full art frame that the old drones didn't have. I don't see a Keyword though. I think it's whatever the first work in the name is colorless all spelled out. There's no parenthesis and it's not in italics.

August 17, 2015 1:44 a.m.

seuvius says... #15

yeah,i couldnt imagine it needing an actual keyword to state that it is colorless.

August 17, 2015 1:46 a.m.

Servo_Token says... #16

The mystery ally card (as well as I could see)

~

Human Soldier Ally

~'s power and toughness are equal to the number of creatures you control.

Tap another untapped Ally you control: ~ gets [mystery ability], vigilence, or lifelink until end of turn.

Seems like a new ally Butcher of the Horde.

ThatJunkMage - The first ability it grants appears to be First Strike.

Primal Command reprint with new art! That alone might make this worth it, but the It That Betrays is also a plus.

Guys..why does the box say $600? Also lots of reprints. I guess they don't want all fun of opening packs to be taken away?

Cards on left -
It That Betrays
Consume the Meek
New card

Cards on right -
Stirring Wildwood
Primal Command
New card

Wow, this looks fabulous. Might actually buy it for once :)

August 17, 2015 3:49 a.m.

With Avenger of Zendikar and Oblivion Sower sitting on the front. I really want this.

Can anyone add more info to the new card on the left?

????? (B)(R)

creature- ??? ???

????

1/1

August 17, 2015 6:31 a.m.

Boza says... #24

Best guess:

?????

Creature - Eldrazi drone

(???? is colorless)

1: Target eldrazi you control gains haste until end of turn.

When ??? or another eldrazi enters the battlefield under your control, do (presumably awesome thing here).

3/2 or 3/1

This,and an image of the front of the pack popped up on magicspoiler.com. It says 600 because it's in Argentinian pesos. The discussion has been about whether or not it is a legitimate product.

Well this looks like a tasty treat

August 17, 2015 7:36 a.m.

Boza says... #27

Wizards spoiled the front of the pack quite a while ago.

I am 100% sure nobody will try to fake a whole box. This seems unreasonably complicated to achieve without any real gain.

August 17, 2015 7:48 a.m.

the bottom left card gives credibility to rumors of the devoid mechanic. It appears to be colorless, and the top keyword looks like a new one.

August 17, 2015 8:04 a.m.

A colorless creature with rakdos colors in the mana cost...?

Here is a link to more info from the mother ship! The B/R eldrazi is called forefunner of slaughter!

August 17, 2015 1:14 p.m.

seuvius says... #31

Also that new ally was shown and a new card with landfall!

August 17, 2015 1:19 p.m.
